Terms of Use

Updated: August 28th, 2024

INTRODUCTION

The following Terms of Use (these "Terms of Use") are a legally binding agreement governing your use of the products and services available at the website located at the URL tools.rotato.app/compress (the "Site"), which was created, and is controlled and operated by Otato GmbH ("Rotato", "we", "us", "ours"). "You", "your", and "user", as applicable, refer to the person or entity registering onto or otherwise using the Site and/or Service (defined below). The Service is provided solely for your own use. These Terms of Use describe the terms and conditions under which we offer you our Compresso's proprietary technology in its various forms (collectively, the "Service") which may be used on the Site, a downloadable software application, or on your website or affiliated websites via any software code that we may make available to you from time to time.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY

By registering, clicking "I Agree" or otherwise accessing, using, and/or participating in the Service, you represent that you are capable of entering into and performing legal agreements, and that you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy on this Site. If you register on behalf of a business, you represent to Otato GmbH that you have the authority to bind that business and your acceptance of these Terms of Use will be treated as acceptance by that business. If you do not agree to all of these Terms of Use and the License, then you may not access the Site or use the Service. The Service is available only to individuals who are at least 13 years old. If you do not qualify, do not attempt to register for or use the Service.

MODIFICATIONS OF TERMS OF USE

Otato GmbH reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms of Use at any time. Please review these Terms of Use from time to time to ensure you are updated on the most recent version. Your continued use of the Service constitutes your acknowledgment and consent to the amended Terms of Use.

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE

A. The Service provides file compression to reduce the file size of users’ files. Users select their files and use the Service to compress and reduce the size of their files while maintaining, to the extent possible, the quality of the files.

B. You remain the owner of your files and compressed files. You may save the files from the Service, and upload your compressed files to other platforms.

C. The Service is provided on a personal basis, and you may not transfer your rights as granted herein to any third party.

D. Otato GmbH may, in its sole discretion, reject, suspend users from the Service at any time if they are found to be in breach of these Terms of Use.

E. All content compressed, optimized or otherwise inserted into the Service is provided by our users. Otato GmbH does not verify the qualifications of users, nor does it evaluate, screen, control, or monitor the content inserted by users into the Service, nor do we have access to the content as it is processed on the user's device locally and not uploaded to our servers unless explicitly and clearly stated otherwise.

F. You are responsible for backing up your content before inserting it to our Service. Uncompressed files are larger (bytes-wise) because they contain more information. This extra information may not be needed in most cases, like serving on a website, but you may need it if you decide to edit, transform, upscale, re-edit, change, correct mistakes, or otherwise repurpose content in those files. We recommend keeping a cold storage of your big files if you're not sure if you'll need it again. When you insert files to the Service, the original resolution, quality, and/or format of your files may be modified. Furthermore, your original files are never stored outside of their original location, and the same goes for the compressed files, unless you explicitly choose to do so. Therefore, you should always preserve your original content or make backup copies of such content (including your compressed files) on your personal system.

G. Otato GmbH may add, change, suspend, or discontinue the Service, in whole or in part, for any reason, at any time, including the availability of any feature or content, without notice or liability to you. Otato GmbH shall not be responsible nor held liable for any failures, errors, unavailability, and/or damages to your content and does not assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, safety, timeliness, legality, or applicability of any content inserted into or provided by the Service. In most cases, earlier versions of the desktop software may be available for download on our site or upon request.

You understand and agree that the free version of the Service may be supported by advertising. The Service may display advertisements and promotions on or through the Service, including third-party applications. The manner, mode, and extent of advertising by Otato GmbH on the Service are subject to change at Otato GmbH's sole discretion.

H. The Service may provide links and applications to other Internet websites or resources. Because Otato GmbH has no control over such websites and resources, you acknowledge and agree that Otato GmbH is not responsible for the availability of such external websites or resources, and does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for any content, advertising, products, or other materials on or available from such websites or resources.

USER SUBMISSIONS

A. You are solely responsible for all content you transmit or submit to Otato GmbH or through the Service, whether created by or for you, including but not limited to graphics, images, files, photos, animation, artwork, text, data, information, scripts, or other material (collectively, "Content"). Otato GmbH disclaims all liability relating to your content. As more fully set forth in this section, you may not submit content that contains any pornographic, infringing, hate-related, violent, or illegal content.

If you submit content that contains the image of an identifiable individual under the age of eighteen (18), we strongly encourage you not to include any identifying information (such as the individual's name or address) with such content.

E. None of the content will be subject to any obligation, whether of confidentiality, attribution, or otherwise, on Otato GmbH's part, and we will not be liable for any use or disclosure of any content. You acknowledge and agree that Otato GmbH may (but is not obligated to) do any or all of the following, at Otato GmbH's discretion: (a) screen, monitor, and/or filter any content (including without limitation by means of blocking or replacing expletives or other language that may be deemed harmful or offensive); (b) alter, remove, or refuse to send, transmit, or otherwise use any content (including, without limitation, by suspending the processing and distribution of any order relating to any content); and/or (c) disclose any content, and the circumstances surrounding the transmission or use thereof, to any third party solely to the extent necessary in order to (i) operate the Service; (ii) protect us and our affiliates, distributors, partners, licensors, advertisers, and sponsors, and our and their directors, officers, employees, consultants, agents, other representatives, and users; and (iii) comply with legal obligations or governmental requests; to enforce these Terms; or for any other reason or purpose.
