Welcome to Format PDF. These Terms of Service explain the rules for using our website and tools. By using formapdf.com, you're agreeing to these terms, so please take a few minutes to read through them. If something here doesn't sit right with you, the best step is to stop using the site and reach out to us on our Contact page.

1. Who We Are

Format PDF (formapdf.com) is a free online platform offering more than 70 tools to convert, edit, compress, merge, and manage PDF files, built and operated by Qasir Mehmood. You can read more about the project on our About Us page.

2. Accepting These Terms

By visiting formapdf.com or using any of our tools, you agree to these Terms of Service and to our Privacy Policy. If you're using our tools on behalf of a company or another person, you're confirming that you have the right to agree to these terms for them too.

2.1 Age Requirement

You must be at least 13 years old to use Format PDF. If you're under 18, you should only use this site with the involvement of a parent or guardian.

3. What We Offer

Format PDF gives you free access to online tools for tasks like converting Word to PDF, Excel to PDF, merging PDFs, compressing files, and editing documents through our PDF editor. No account or payment is required for the core tools listed on our homepage.

3.1 Changes to Our Tools

We're actively building and improving Format PDF, which means tools, features, or the layout of the site may change, be added, or occasionally be removed without advance notice. We try to keep disruption to a minimum.

4. Your Files and Content

When you upload a file to use one of our tools, you keep full ownership of that file. We don't claim any rights over your documents.

4.1 How We Handle Uploaded Files

Your file is used only to perform the action you requested. It is automatically deleted from our servers a short time after processing. We don't review, share, or use the content of your files for any purpose beyond running the tool you chose. For more detail on this, see our Privacy Policy.

4.2 Your Responsibility

You're responsible for making sure you have the right to upload and process whatever file you submit to our tools. Don't upload files that contain illegal content, infringe someone else's copyright, or that you don't have permission to use.

5. Acceptable Use

To keep Format PDF working well for everyone, please don't:

  • Use automated bots, scrapers, or scripts to overload our servers
  • Try to bypass, hack, or interfere with the site's security
  • Upload files containing malware, viruses, or harmful code
  • Use the tools to process illegal, abusive, or copyright-infringing content
  • Attempt to resell or republish our tools as your own service without permission

If we notice misuse like this, we reserve the right to block access without prior warning.

6. No Account, No Guarantee of Storage

Most of our tools don't require you to create an account. Because of this, we don't provide a way to recover files after they've been processed and deleted from our servers. Always keep your own backup copy of any important document before uploading it.

7. Service Availability

We work to keep Format PDF online and running smoothly, but we can't promise the site or its tools will be available 100% of the time. There may be occasional downtime for maintenance, updates, or issues outside our control (server outages, internet disruptions, and so on).

8. Advertising

Format PDF is a free service, and we may display advertising, including ads served through Google AdSense, to help cover the cost of running the platform. Details on how ad cookies work are explained in our Privacy Policy.

9. Third-Party Links and Tools

Some of our blog articles mention or link to third-party software or websites, for example, as alternatives to our own tools. We don't control these third-party services and aren't responsible for their content, pricing, or how they handle your data. Any use of a third-party site is between you and that company.

10. Limitation of Liability

Format PDF is provided "as is," free of charge, and on a best-effort basis. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable for:

  • Loss of files, data, or work resulting from use of our tools
  • Errors, bugs, or inaccuracies in converted or edited documents
  • Downtime, interruptions, or unavailability of the service
  • Any indirect or consequential damages arising from use of the site

We always recommend double-checking your converted or edited files before relying on them for anything important, like submitting a business document or academic assignment.

11. Intellectual Property

The Format PDF name, logo, design, and website content belong to Format PDF and may not be copied, reproduced, or reused without written permission. This doesn't affect ownership of the files you upload and process, those remain entirely yours.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms of Service occasionally as our tools or legal requirements evolve. Updates will be posted on this page with a new "last updated" date. Continuing to use Format PDF after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.

13. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of Pakistan, where Format PDF is operated from, without regard to conflict of law principles.
