4. Branding, Trademarks, and Attribution

The name “FilexFlow”, our logos, domain names, and associated brand elements are trademarks or trade dress of FilexFlow. You may not use them without our prior written permission, except for fair and descriptive use permitted by law.

Any authorized integration, partnership, or embedding of the Service must follow our brand guidelines, avoid misleading users about the relationship between you and FilexFlow, and clearly distinguish your services from ours.

5. User Responsibility and Compliance

You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and third-party rights, including intellectual property, privacy, and export control requirements.

You are solely responsible for the legality of the files and content you upload or process through the Service, and for any consequences arising from your use of the outputs in your own products, workflows, or business operations.

In addition to the Acceptable Use obligations set out in the Terms of Service, you may not use the Service to:

• Misrepresent your identity or affiliation, or falsely imply endorsement, sponsorship, or partnership with FilexFlow.

7. Copyright Infringement and DMCA

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same. If you believe that content processed or made available through the Service infringes your copyright, you may submit a notice in accordance with applicable copyright law (such as the DMCA in the United States).

A valid copyright notice should include sufficient information to identify the allegedly infringing material, proof of ownership or authorization, and your contact details. We may request additional information to verify your claim and reserve the right to reject incomplete or abusive notices.

Where required by law, we may remove or disable access to allegedly infringing material and, in appropriate cases, suspend or close accounts of repeat infringers.

8. Third-Party Components and Open-Source Software

The Service may incorporate or interact with third-party libraries, tools, or open-source components. Such components remain subject to their own licenses, which may grant you additional rights or impose specific obligations.

Nothing in this Legal Notice is intended to limit your rights under any applicable open-source license. In the event of conflict between this Legal Notice and an open-source license governing a particular component, the open-source license will prevail for that component.
