Terms and conditions

1. About these terms

These terms are an agreement between you and Nonith Rao ("we", "us") about your use of SvgForge, including this website and the editor. You accept them by ticking the box and selecting Agree and continue before you add a file. If you don't agree, don't use SvgForge.

If you use SvgForge for a company or another organisation, you accept these terms on its behalf and confirm that you are authorised to do so. "You" then includes that organisation.

Our privacy policy explains how we handle information, and forms part of these terms.

2. Who can use it

You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding contract under Indian law. SvgForge is meant for business and professional use.

3. The service

SvgForge reads layered SVG, Photoshop (PSD and PSB) and Illustrator (AI) files of up to 150 MB and lays them out again at 1080 × 1080, 1200 × 1200, 1200 × 1500, 1080 × 1920 and 1200 × 628 pixels, and at other sizes you add. You can adjust the results in the editor and download them as a ZIP file.

A session ends 2 hours after your last action, or earlier if the server restarts or needs the space. Download your results before then: we don't keep copies, and a session that has ended can't be recovered. Keep your own copies of your original files.

We may change features, supported file types, sizes and limits, including how many files can be processed at once, to keep the service working for everyone.

4. Your files and results

You keep all rights to the files you upload and to the results SvgForge produces from them. We don't claim ownership of either.

You allow us to store, copy and process your files only as needed to provide the service to you, as described in the privacy policy. This permission ends when your files are deleted.

5. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for your files and for how you use the results. In particular, you confirm that:

• you own the files or have permission to upload and adapt them, including every photo, illustration, font, logo and trademark in them;
• you have any permission the law requires from people who appear in, or are named in, the files;
• your files, and the way you use the results, comply with the law, including advertising standards and the rules of the platforms where you publish them.

6. Acceptable use

Don't use SvgForge to:

• upload anything unlawful, infringing, defamatory or obscene, or anything that sexualises or harms children;
• upload malware or files designed to exploit software;
• access other people's sessions or results, or probe, scan or test the security of the service;
• overload the service, get around its limits, or send files with automated tools without our written permission;
• copy, reverse-engineer or resell the service, except where the law allows it.

7. Results need your review

Layouts are produced automatically. A result can crop, move or rearrange parts of your design in ways you don't want, and some effects or fonts may not be reproduced exactly. Sizes that are more likely to need changes are marked for review, but any size can contain mistakes.

Check every result before you publish or use it. We don't promise that a result meets your brand guidelines or the specifications and policies of any advertising platform.

8. Availability and changes

We try to keep SvgForge available, but it may be slow, interrupted or unavailable, for example during maintenance or busy periods. We may change, suspend or stop all or part of the service, and will give notice on this website where we reasonably can.

9. Our software and brand

The SvgForge software, website, name and design belong to Nonith Rao or its licensors. These terms give you the right to use the service as described here, and no other rights. If you send us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without any obligation to you.

10. Fees

SvgForge is currently free to use. If we introduce fees, we will tell you before they apply, and you can decide whether to continue.

11. Disclaimer

To the extent the law allows, SvgForge is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, including warranties of fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy or non-infringement. Nothing in these terms limits rights that the law does not allow to be limited.

12. Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows:

• we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, or for loss of profit, revenue, data, goodwill or business opportunity;
• our total liability for all claims relating to SvgForge is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for it in the 12 months before the claim, and INR 5,000.

Nothing in these terms limits liability for fraud, or any other liability that cannot be limited by law.

13. Claims caused by your use

You will compensate us for claims, losses and reasonable costs, including legal fees, that arise from your files, your use of the results or your breach of these terms.

14. Suspension and ending

You can stop using SvgForge at any time. We may suspend or end your access, without notice where necessary, if you break these terms, if your use puts the service or other people at risk, or if the law requires it. Sections 5 and 11 to 15 continue to apply after your use ends.

15. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of India. If a dispute arises, contact us first and we will try to resolve it informally. If we can't, the courts of India have exclusive jurisdiction.

16. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The new version and date will appear on this page, and the editor will ask you to accept the new version before you add another file. A change doesn't apply to files you processed before it.
