2. Services Provided "As-Is"

All tools and services on UtilityPorts are provided "as-is" and "as-available" without any warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement.

3. User Responsibility for Input Data

You are solely responsible for any data, text, code, or content you input into our tools. UtilityPorts processes your input to return a requested output (e.g. formatting JSON, decoding Base64). We do not review, validate, or take any responsibility for the accuracy, legality, or appropriateness of any data you submit.

  • Downtime, outages, or loss of access to the Site

Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or your use of the Site shall not exceed the total amount paid by you to us in the twelve months preceding the claim (which in most cases will be zero, as all tools are free).
