Terms of use
These terms apply to BeamDrop at wetransfertool.com (“BeamDrop”, “we”). By using it you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the service.
1. What BeamDrop is
BeamDrop is a free tool that helps two web browsers set up a direct, encrypted connection so one can send files to the other. We operate a signaling server that introduces the browsers. We do not receive, store, relay, scan or moderate the files you send.
2. Acceptable use
You may use BeamDrop only for lawful purposes. You must not use it to send or receive:
- content that is illegal where you or the recipient are, including child sexual abuse material;
- material that infringes someone else’s copyright, trademark or other rights;
- malware or files intended to damage or gain unauthorized access to systems;
- content used to harass, threaten or defraud people.
You also must not attack, overload or try to bypass the limits of the service, guess other people’s codes, or use the signaling server for anything other than setting up BeamDrop transfers.
3. Your responsibility for content
You are solely responsible for the files you send and for having the right to send them. Because transfers are peer-to-peer, we have no copy of any file and no technical ability to review or remove it. We may block traffic that we reasonably believe violates these terms.
4. Reporting misuse
Report suspected violations to hello@wetransfertool.com. We will review reports about use of the service and cooperate with valid legal process, to the limited extent we hold information (see the privacy policy).
5. No warranty
BeamDrop is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind. Transfers can fail — for example when networks block direct connections or a tab is closed. Keep your own copies of important files; BeamDrop is not a backup or storage service.
6. Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages, or for loss of data, arising from your use of BeamDrop. Our total liability for any claim is limited to US$50.
7. Changes and termination
We may change or discontinue the service, or update these terms, at any time. The date above shows the latest version. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.
8. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
9. Trademarks
BeamDrop (wetransfertool.com) is an independent file-sharing tool. It is not affiliated with, sponsored or endorsed by WeTransfer. All trademarks belong to their owners.
