The use of The Service is attributed to whomever carries out for themselves the role of user (from this point, “the User”) and implies the complete acceptance of these Terms of Use.

Likewise, once processed, only the Users will have access to the documents and/or images which are generated and to the download link; the original and processed files will be erased automatically after a determined amount of time, depending on the type of account which is used. Users are exclusively responsible for the use they make of the files.

That is, iLovePDF is limited to facilitating access to the tools which allow users to manipulate files and only remain stored—in a secure fashion—within their private server during the period in which the download link is available.


  1. DURATION

The current Contract will enter into effect the moment of its acceptance by the User and will be maintained in effect until either of the parties notifies the other of its own desire not to renew the terms.
