Terms of use

By using PaperWorksPDF you agree to these terms and to the privacy policy. If you are using the service for an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to accept these terms on its behalf.

You must be competent to contract under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. The service is not directed at children below eighteen years of age.

The PDF, document, image and text tools are provided free of charge, without an account and without a watermark, for documents you own, control or are otherwise authorised to handle.

You are responsible for reviewing every output file before using, sharing, printing, signing, filing or relying on it. Browser-based processing depends on your device, so results and performance vary between machines.

In line with the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the CCPA Guidelines for Prevention and Regulation of Dark Patterns, 2023, we do not use false urgency, basket sneaking, confirm-shaming, forced action, subscription traps, interface interference, bait and switch, drip pricing, disguised advertisements, nagging, trick wording, SaaS billing or rogue malware patterns.

There is no paid tier, no hidden charge and no automatic renewal on this site. If a paid feature is ever introduced, its price, duration, cancellation route and refund position will be disclosed before you commit, and cancellation will be as easy as signing up.

Content you process remains yours. The site's software, design, brand and text are protected under the Copyright Act, 1957 and applicable trade mark law and may not be copied, resold or reverse engineered.

Use of the tools for personal or authorised purposes may fall within fair dealing under Section 52 of the Copyright Act, 1957, but you must not use them to circumvent protection on works you have no right to use.

If you believe material accessible through the service infringes your copyright, send a complaint to the grievance officer with the details required by Rule 75 of the Copyright Rules, 2013 and Rule 3(1)(d) of the IT Rules, 2021: identification of the work, the location of the material, proof of your ownership, and a statement of the basis of infringement. Access to material identified in a valid complaint or a court or government order is disabled within thirty-six hours of receipt of the order, and the complaint process is administered consistent with guidance from the Copyright Office and DPIIT.

You must not use PaperWorksPDF to host, process, display, share or transmit material that is unlawful, defamatory, obscene, paedophilic, invasive of another's privacy, insulting or harassing on the basis of gender, racially or ethnically objectionable, encouraging money laundering or gambling, harmful to a child, infringing of intellectual property, deceptive or impersonating, or otherwise prohibited by Rule 3(1)(b) of the IT Rules, 2021.

You must not attack, overload, scrape at scale, reverse engineer, tamper with or otherwise interfere with the service or its hosting infrastructure. Offences under Sections 43, 65, 66 and 66F of the IT Act, 2000 will be reported to the appropriate authority.

You must not use the tools to forge signatures, tamper with evidentiary records or defeat lawful document protection.

The signing and signature-request features produce visual signature marks on a document. They are not, by themselves, a digital signature or electronic signature issued by a Certifying Authority licensed under the IT Act, 2000 and the Second Schedule thereto.

For instruments that require a legally recognised digital signature or an Aadhaar eSign, use a licensed Certifying Authority or an eSign service provider. Documents excluded by the First Schedule of the IT Act, such as certain negotiable instruments, powers of attorney, trusts and wills, cannot be validly executed electronically.

PaperWorksPDF provides document tooling only. It does not provide legal, tax, financial, compliance or records-management advice, and outputs are not a substitute for professional review.

The service is provided on an 'as is' and 'as available' basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential loss, loss of data or loss of profits. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have as a consumer under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 or any liability that cannot be excluded under Indian law.

A Grievance Officer is designated under Rule 3(2) of the IT Rules, 2021 and the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020. Complaints are acknowledged within forty-eight hours and redressed within one month, and content complaints under the IT Rules within fifteen days. Contact details are on the contact page.

You may also raise a consumer complaint through the National Consumer Helpline (1915) or the INGRAM portal, or before the appropriate consumer commission.

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts at the place of our registered operations have exclusive jurisdiction, subject to the consumer forum rights available to you at your place of residence.

Tools, routes, interface behaviour and supported formats may change as the product improves, and a tool may be withdrawn where it no longer meets our quality bar.

Updated terms take effect when published on this page. Continued use after publication indicates acceptance.
