Terms of Service

1. The Service

Drive Cleaner helps you organise Google Drive by scanning a folder you choose, grouping files, showing a preview tidy plan, and (only when you confirm) performing actions such as creating folders, moving files, and/or placing items in Google Drive trash. Some plans may include an undo window.

Drive Cleaner is not affiliated with Google. “Google” and “Google Drive” are trademarks of Google LLC.

2. Eligibility

You must be legally able to enter into a contract to use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of a business or organisation, you represent you have authority to bind that entity, and “you” includes that entity.

3. Accounts & security

• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and access credentials.
• You are responsible for activity that occurs through your account.
• You must provide accurate information and keep it up to date.

4. Google Drive connection & permissions

To use Drive Cleaner, you must connect a Google account via OAuth and grant permissions (“scopes”). You control which account you connect and which folder(s) you choose to scan.

• You can revoke Drive Cleaner’s access at any time in your Google Account settings. If you revoke access, features that depend on Drive permissions may stop working.
• You confirm you have the right to access and organise the Drive files you connect (including shared content you are permitted to manage).

5. Your responsibility when tidying

The Service is designed to be preview-first, but you are still responsible for the choices you make. In particular:

• You must review the preview tidy plan before applying it.
• You are responsible for selecting the correct folder(s) and confirming actions.
• Organising files can have unintended consequences (for example, moving a file may affect where it appears for collaborators).
• If you use “trash”/delete actions, you are responsible for confirming you no longer need the items.

We recommend you keep backups and use Google Drive’s own recovery features where appropriate.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the Service. For example, you will not:

• Break the law or violate others’ rights.
• Attempt to access other users’ data or non-public systems.
• Interfere with or disrupt the Service (e.g. abuse rate limits, probe vulnerabilities).
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code (except where permitted by law).
• Use the Service to build or benchmark a competing product using non-public aspects of the Service.
• Upload malicious code or use the Service to distribute malware or spam.

We may suspend or terminate access if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or if necessary to protect the Service, users, or third parties.

7. Plans, billing, cancellation, and refunds

Drive Cleaner may offer free and paid plans. Paid subscriptions are billed through our payment processor (e.g. Stripe). Plan features, limits, and prices are shown in the app and/or at checkout.

7.1 Auto-renewal

Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel before the renewal date. If you cancel, your plan remains active until the end of the current billing period unless stated otherwise.

7.2 Price changes

We may change pricing or plan features. If a change affects an existing paid subscription, we will take reasonable steps to notify you in advance (for example by email or in-app notice), and changes will apply from your next renewal unless required otherwise by law.

7.3 Refunds

Refunds (if any) are handled according to our refund policy: [REFUND POLICY HERE]. Unless required by applicable law, fees are non-refundable.

Nothing in these Terms limits any consumer rights you may have under applicable law.

8. Third-party services

The Service relies on third-party services (for example Google APIs and Stripe). Your use of those services may be subject to their own terms and policies. We are not responsible for third-party services that are outside of our control (including outages, API changes, or policy changes).

9. Intellectual property

We (and our licensors) own the Service, including software, design, and branding, and all associated intellectual property rights. You receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service in accordance with these Terms.

You retain your rights to your files and content in Google Drive. You grant us permission to process the data necessary to provide the Service (scan, preview, perform the actions you confirm, and support undo where applicable).

If you send us feedback or suggestions, you agree we may use them without restriction or obligation to you.

10. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal data: /privacy.

11. Availability, changes, and beta features

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Service. We aim to keep downtime minimal but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.

Some features may be marked as beta/experimental. Beta features may change or be removed and may be less reliable.

12. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or if necessary to protect the Service or others.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends. Some provisions of these Terms will survive termination, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and indemnities.

13. Disclaimers

The Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. You use it at your own risk. We do not guarantee that tidy groupings, suggestions, or outcomes will meet your expectations or be error-free.

14. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill arising from your use of the Service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim (or £0 if you are on a free plan).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where it cannot be excluded by law (for example, for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation).

15. Indemnity

If you use the Service in a way that violates these Terms or the law and that causes us damage or leads to a third-party claim, you agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from resulting losses, claims, and reasonable expenses (including legal fees), to the extent permitted by law.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will update the “Last updated” date above and, if changes are material, we will take reasonable steps to notify you (for example in-app notice or email). Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

17. Governing law & jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these Terms, unless applicable consumer law in your country requires otherwise.
