Terms of Use
In short: SafeCookie is a free tool provided as is. You are responsible for how you use it, for the accounts you use it with, and for backing up your data. Please read these Terms before you use SafeCookie.
1. Agreement
These Terms are a legal agreement between you and Omar Abdelmohsen (“we”, “us”), the developer of SafeCookie. By downloading, installing or using the SafeCookie Windows app, the SafeCookie Bridge browser extension or the websites at safecookie.app, docs.safecookie.app and themes.safecookie.app (together, “SafeCookie”), you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use SafeCookie.
2. What SafeCookie is
SafeCookie is a free tool that helps you manage browser sessions and cookies, generate 2FA codes, store passwords locally, and block trackers and ads. It is a neutral tool: what you do with it is your decision and your responsibility.
3. Eligibility
You must be old enough to enter a binding agreement where you live. If you are under that age, you may use SafeCookie only with the permission of a parent or guardian.
4. License
We grant you a free, personal, non-exclusive, revocable license to install and use SafeCookie. You may not sell, rent, repackage or redistribute it, remove its notices, or reverse engineer it, except where the law allows you to despite this restriction.
5. Your responsibility and acceptable use
You agree to use SafeCookie only with accounts, data and devices that you own or are authorized to use. You agree not to use it to access anyone else's account, to bypass security measures, to commit fraud, to harass others, or to break any law or the terms of any website or service. You alone are responsible for how you use SafeCookie, for what you do with saved sessions, and for anything done on your computer by other people or software. We are not responsible for misuse of SafeCookie by you or anyone else.
6. Third-party websites and services
SafeCookie is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any website or service you use it with. Restoring a session may stop working at any time, and websites may log you out, flag the activity, restrict, lock or suspend your account. Using SafeCookie may be against the terms of some websites. We are not responsible for any consequence of that. Names and trademarks belong to their owners.
7. Your data, backups and security
You are responsible for keeping your computer secure, for choosing and protecting your PIN and passwords, and for keeping backups. The local encryption key is derived from your computer's identifiers, so reinstalling Windows or changing hardware can make local data unreadable. Keep a password-protected backup and your services' own recovery codes. We do not have your data and cannot recover it for you.
8. Tracker and ad protection
Blocking is provided on a best-effort basis. We do not promise that every tracker or ad will be blocked, that every blocked item is harmful, or that blocking will not break a website. SafeCookie does not make you anonymous. We are not responsible for content that is blocked or missed, or for any effect blocking has on a website or its owner.
9. Authenticator and password manager
These features are conveniences. Make sure you keep another way to recover your accounts. We are not responsible for lost access to any account, lost codes or lost passwords.
10. Data we collect
The data we receive and how we use it is described in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these Terms.
11. Updates and availability
SafeCookie is free and provided without any promise of support or availability. We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of it at any time, including the website, the blocklist and update services, without notice.
12. Disclaimer of warranties
SAFECOOKIE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SECURITY, ACCURACY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. YOU USE SAFECOOKIE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
13. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, ACCOUNTS, ACCESS, PROFITS, FUNDS OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, SAFECOOKIE. THIS INCLUDES LOSSES CAUSED BY YOUR OR ANYONE ELSE'S MISUSE OF SAFECOOKIE, BY ACTIONS OF THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES OR SERVICES, BY MALWARE OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO YOUR DEVICE, OR BY BUGS, UPDATES OR DISCONTINUATION. WHERE LIABILITY CANNOT BE EXCLUDED, IT IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR SAFECOOKIE, WHICH IS ZERO.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the law that applies to you.
14. Indemnification
You agree to defend and hold us harmless from any claim, loss, damage or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use or misuse of SafeCookie, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or of anyone's rights.
15. Termination
You can stop using SafeCookie at any time by uninstalling it. We may end your license immediately if you break these Terms. Sections that by their nature should continue (including 5, 6, 12, 13, 14 and 16) will continue after termination.
16. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Arab Republic of Egypt, and the courts of Egypt have jurisdiction over disputes, except where the law that applies to you requires otherwise.
17. General
If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Our not enforcing a right is not a waiver of it. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about SafeCookie.
18. Changes
We may update these Terms. The effective date above shows when they last changed, and continuing to use SafeCookie after an update means you accept it.
