Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Clipboard Inspector, accessible at clipboardinspector.com. By visiting the site or using the tool, you agree to the Terms described below. If you do not agree, please stop using the service.

1. What the Service Is

Clipboard Inspector is a free, browser-based utility that reveals the MIME types and raw content of data placed on your system clipboard or dragged into the drop zone. It is intended for developers and technical users who need to debug paste behaviour, rich-text editors, drag-and-drop handlers, and similar features in web applications.

2. No Account, No Fee

The service requires no registration and is provided at no charge. We reserve the right to change the service, restrict access, or discontinue any feature at any time and without notice. We recommend keeping local copies of anything you need to preserve.

3. Acceptable Use

You agree not to misuse the service. In particular, you agree not to:

  • Attempt to attack, disrupt, or overload the site's infrastructure.
  • Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the site without explicit written permission.
  • Use the service in any way that violates applicable laws or regulations.
  • Reverse-engineer the service in a manner that violates intellectual-property law.
  • Use automated tools to scrape, crawl, or mirror the site beyond reasonable robots.txt behaviour.

4. Clipboard Contents Are Your Responsibility

You control what is placed on your clipboard before pasting into the inspector. The tool reads whatever your operating system makes available to the browser. You are responsible for not pasting sensitive, confidential, or regulated data that you are not authorised to handle in the browser context. Since processing is client-side, we do not see this data — but you should still follow your organisation's data-handling policies.

5. Intellectual Property

The site's code, visual design, text content, and branding are owned by the site operator and protected by applicable copyright and trademark laws. You may share links to the site freely. Reproducing substantial portions of the site's text or cloning the site's design requires prior permission.

6. Third-Party Services

The site may load scripts from third parties such as Google Analytics and Google AdSense when you consent to analytics or advertising cookies. Your use of those services is also subject to the respective provider's terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the behaviour of third-party scripts or for advertisements served by third-party ad networks.

7. No Warranty

The service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that the data it displays is complete or accurate in every scenario.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the site operator shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of the service — including lost data, lost profits, or business interruption — even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability, to the extent not excluded by law, shall not exceed USD 10.

9. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the site operator from any claim arising out of your misuse of the service, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of any third-party right.

10. Changes to the Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any changes. Continued use of the service after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable at the site operator's place of business. Disputes shall first be addressed through good-faith communication via the Contact page.

12. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

13. Contact

Questions about these Terms can be sent via the Contact page.
