Terms of Service

These Terms govern your access to and use of the products and services we provide through EmbedPDF.com. 

Please read these Terms carefully before accessing or using EmbedPDF Services. By accessing or using any part of EmbedPDF Services, you agree to be bound by all of the Terms and all other operating rules, policies, and procedures that we may publish via the Services from time to time (collectively, the “Agreement”). You also agree that we may automatically change, update, or add on to EmbedPDF Services, and the Agreement will apply to any changes.

EmbedPDF (“EmbedPDF,” “us,” “we” or “our”) provides a cloud-based Service to users who have EmbedPDF accounts (“users”) through its web site located at https://www.embedpdf.com, subject to these Terms.

“You” means any individual or entity using EmbedPDF Services. If you use EmbedPDF Services on behalf of another person or entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to accept the Agreement on that person’s or entity’s behalf, that by using using EmbedPDF Services you are accepting the Agreement on behalf of that person or entity, and that if you, or that person or entity, violates the Agreement, you and that person or entity agree to be responsible to us.

In order to use EmbedPDF Services, you must first create an account through our online registration system including the creation of a username and password. 

By creating an account you agree to provide us with complete and accurate information and to keep the information current so that we can communicate with you about your account. We may need to send you emails about notable updates, like changes to our Terms of Service or Privacy Policy. We may limit your access to EmbedPDF Services until we’re able to verify your account information. 

When you create a EmbedPDF account, we consider that to be an inquiry about our products and services, which means that we may also contact you to share more details about what we have to offer. If you are not interested, you can opt out of these marketing communications. You are solely responsible and liable for all activity under your account. You are also fully responsible for maintaining the security of your account (which includes keeping your password secure). We are not liable for any acts or omissions by you, including any damages of any kind incurred as a result of your acts or omissions. Do not share or misuse your access credentials. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized uses of your account or of any other breach of security. If we believe your account has been compromised, we may suspend or disable it.

If you’d like to learn about how we handle the data you provide us, please see our Privacy Policy.

EmbedPDF Services are not directed to children. You are not allowed to access or use EmbedPDF Services if you are under the age of 18 (or 16 in Europe). If you register as a user or otherwise use EmbedPDF Services, you represent that you are at least 18 (or 16 in Europe). You may use EmbedPDF Services only if you can legally form a binding contract with us. In other words, if you are under 18 years of age (or the legal age of majority where you live), you can only use EmbedPDF Services under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to the Agreement.

We have not reviewed, and cannot review, all of the Content uploaded, displayed, shared, sold or stored by EmbedPDF users on their websites through our Services. We are not responsible for the Content or any effects of Content on websites using EmbedPDF Services. So, for example:

• We do not have any control over the websites of users of EmbedPDF Services.
• Any EmbedPDF attributional text or link on a user’s website does not represent or imply that we endorse the website.
• We do not endorse any Content or represent that Content is accurate, useful, or not harmful. Content could be offensive, indecent, or objectionable; include technical inaccuracies, typographical mistakes, or other errors; or violate or infringe the privacy, publicity rights, intellectual property rights, or other proprietary rights of third parties.
• EmbedPDF Users are fully responsible for the Content available on their websites, and any harm resulting from that Content. It is expressly the user’s responsibility to ensure that their website’s Content abides by applicable laws and by the Agreement.
• We are not responsible for any harm resulting from anyone’s access to, use, purchase, or downloading of Content on any website which belongs to a user of our Services. You are responsible for taking the necessary precautions to protect yourself and your computer systems from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other harmful or destructive content.
• Content offered for sale through any website which belongs to a user of our Services is the seller’s sole responsibility.
• We are not a party to, and will have no responsibility or liability for, any communications, transactions, interactions, or disputes between users of EmbedPDF Services and third-parties.

Fees for Paid Services. Some plans for EmbedPDF Services are offered on a subscription basis for a fee. The payment plans offered for EmbedPDF Paid Services include monthly or annual recurring fees. By selecting a monthly or annual subscription plan for a Paid Service, you agree to pay the specified fees by credit or debit card,  and to update your payment information if any changes occur throughout the subscription term. By providing your credit or debit card information, you represent that the information is accurate and that you are authorized to use the card. You further represent that you permit EmbedPDF to charge the subscription fee corresponding to your selected plan in the automatically-renewing interval (monthly or annually), through a third-party payment processor, on a pre-pay basis for the term of your subscription and any subsequent renewals. You can cancel at any time by contacting us through the chat function in your EmbedPDF user dashboard.

Taxes. To the extent permitted by law, or unless explicitly stated otherwise, all fees do not include applicable federal, provincial, state, local or other governmental sales, value-added, goods and services, harmonized or other taxes, fees, or charges (“Taxes”). You are responsible for paying all applicable Taxes relating to your use of paid EmbedPDF Services. 

Payment. If your payment fails, Paid Services are otherwise not paid for or paid for on time (for example, if you contact your bank or credit card company to decline or reverse the charge of fees for Paid Services), or we suspect a payment is fraudulent, we may immediately cancel or revoke your access to Paid Services without notice to you.

Automatic Renewal. To ensure uninterrupted service, Paid Services are automatically renewed. This means that unless you cancel a Paid Service subscription before the end of the applicable period, it will automatically renew, and you authorize us to use any payment mechanism we have on record for you or invoice you (in which case payment is due within 15 days) to collect the then-applicable subscription fee as well as any Taxes. By default, your Paid Services will be renewed for the same interval as your original subscription period, so for example, if you select an annual payment option for a EmbedPDF plan, you will be charged each year for access for another 12-month period. We may charge your account up to one month before the end of the subscription period to make sure billing issues don’t inadvertently disrupt your access to EmbedPDF Services. The date for the automatic renewal is based on the date of the original purchase and cannot be changed. You’ll need to check your email (including in spam or other filters) for any reminder emails we might send you before your Paid Services renew.

You can view your renewal date and manage subscriptions for EmbedPDF Paid Services through the dashboard after logging in to your account. For any questions about subscription management please consult the EmbedPDF support team. 

Cancelling Automatic Renewal. You can manage and cancel your Paid Services by contacting us through the chat in your EmbedPDF account dashboard. 

Fees and Changes. We may change our fees at any time in accordance with these Terms and requirements under applicable law. This means that we may change our fees going forward, start charging fees for Services that were previously free, or remove or update features or functionality that were previously included in the fees. If you don’t agree with the changes, you must cancel your Paid Service.

Refunds. We may have a refund policy for some of our Paid Services, and we’ll also provide refunds if required by law. In all other cases, there are no refunds and all payments are final.

We love hearing from you and are always looking to improve EmbedPDF Services. When you share comments, ideas, or feedback with us, you agree that we are free to use them without any restriction or compensation to you.

EmbedPDF Accounts EmbedPDF offers a basic free plan as well as paid plans which enable access to advanced features, greater storage and multiple users. The free plan is offered for clients to become familiar with the viewer and for those who have limited use needs. One free plan is permitted per individual or organization. The free plan is offered at the discretion of EmbedPDF and EmbedPDF retains the right to block or delete free plan accounts that are suspected to be multiple accounts belonging to one individual or company, or which otherwise violate the terms of service found in this document.

We do not own content uploaded, displayed, shared, sent or otherwise transmitted through EmbedPDF Services. Users are responsible for all materials they publish through EmbedPDF Services. As detailed in the terms in Section 7 of the Agreement, make sure that our Services are not used for any prohibited materials or purposes.

Removing Content. If you delete Content, we will use reasonable efforts to remove it from public view (or in the case of private documents, from view by the authorized visitors), but you acknowledge that cached versions of the Content or references to the Content may not be immediately unavailable.

Attributions. We may place EmbedPDF attribution text or links in your PDF viewer unless you have purchased a plan that includes the removal of this placement.

As we ask others to respect our intellectual property rights, we respect the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe any Content displayed on a third-party website using EmbedPDF Services violates your copyright, please contact the owner of the website directly. If the need arises to contact us directly about intellectual property rights, you can reach us at dmca@embedpdf.com 

The Agreement does not transfer any EmbedPDF or third-party intellectual property to you, and all right, title, and interest in and to such property remains (as between EmbedPDF and you) solely with EmbedPDF. EmbedPDF and all other trademarks, service marks, graphics, and logos used in connection with our website or Services are trademarks or registered trademarks of OpenBook B.V. Other trademarks, service marks, graphics, and logos used in connection with EmbedPDF Services may be the trademarks of other third parties. Using EmbedPDF Services does not grant you any right or license to reproduce or otherwise use any EmbedPDF or third-party trademarks.

We may update, change, or discontinue any aspect of EmbedPDF Services at any time. Since we are constantly updating EmbedPDF Services, we sometimes have to change the legal terms under which they are offered. The Agreement may only be modified by a written amendment signed by an authorized executive of EmbedPDF, or if EmbedPDF posts a revised version. We will let you know when there are changes. We will post them here and update the “Last Updated” date, and we may also post on our blog or send you an email or other communication before the changes become effective. Your continued use of EmbedPDF Services after the new terms take effect will be subject to the new terms, so if you disagree with the changes in the new terms, you should stop using EmbedPDF Services. To the extent you have an existing subscription, you may be eligible for a refund.

We may terminate your access to all or any part of EmbedPDF Services at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice, effective immediately. We have the right (though not the obligation) to, in our sole discretion, (i) refuse or remove any content that, in our reasonable opinion, violates the Agreement or any EmbedPDF policy, or is in any way harmful, or (ii) terminate or deny access to and use of any of EmbedPDF Services to any individual or entity for any reason. We will have no obligation to provide a refund of any fees previously paid.

You can stop using EmbedPDF Services at any time, or, if you use a Paid Service, you can cancel at any time, subject to the Fees, Payment and Renewal section of the Agreement
