Terms of Service
These terms cover acceptable use of LeedyBox, your responsibility for the files and content you process and the results you use, service availability and the limits of our liability.
Last updated: October 3, 2026
1. Using LeedyBox
LeedyBox provides free, browser-based tools and guides intended for lawful personal and commercial use, subject to these terms and the specific limitations of individual tools. By using the site you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use LeedyBox.
2. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the service for unlawful activities, to infringe the intellectual property or privacy rights of others, or to interfere with the proper functioning of the site. Automated scraping and other abuse of the site are not permitted.
For example, you may not use LeedyBox to create QR codes or barcodes that lead to phishing pages, malware or fraudulent offers, to process content you have no right to use, to add watermarks, logos or other marks that misrepresent who created or owns a document or image, or to generate material intended to deceive or harm others. You are responsible for the content you process, generate and share with LeedyBox tools.
If your use of LeedyBox breaks the law or these terms and a third party makes a claim as a result, that claim is your responsibility, to the extent permitted by the law that applies to you.
3. File Ownership and Responsibility
LeedyBox processes files and text locally within your web browser and does not upload or store them on our servers. Users retain full ownership and sole responsibility for the files and content they process, including securing necessary permissions and maintaining independent backups of all important original files.
4. Results of Conversions and Developer Tools
Results produced by the tools, including converted, resized, compressed, cropped and rotated images, cleaned photos, icons, converted and edited PDFs, extracted or recognized text, converted data, generated SQL, decoded tokens, schedule descriptions, converted dates and timestamps, regular-expression matches, diffs, renamed keys, hashes, counts, generated values and codes, may be incomplete or inaccurate. You are responsible for reviewing each result before relying on it, and for testing generated code or SQL in a safe environment before using it with production systems or real data.
5. Tool-Specific Responsibilities
- Passwords and UUIDs: Generated values are created in your browser and are not stored by LeedyBox, so we cannot recover them. You are responsible for saving, storing and using them securely. Strength labels are estimates, not an assessment of how a password will hold up in a particular system.
- Hashes: MD5 and SHA-1 are not suitable for security purposes such as storing passwords or signing data. A matching checksum confirms that two inputs produce the same hash; it is not a security audit or proof that a file is safe.
- QR codes and barcodes: Test every code with the scanners and devices your audience will use before printing or publishing it. EAN and UPC product numbers must be obtained from GS1 or an authorized source; LeedyBox does not issue or register codes or numbers. You are responsible for the content you encode, including links and Wi-Fi passwords.
- Word and character counts: Counts depend on how the tool and your browser split text into words and characters, and may differ from those of other services, editors or submission systems. Check the count required by the place where you submit your text.
- Converters: Review converted data, files and text before you use them, because formats do not map one to one and details can change during conversion.
- Image editing (resizing, compressing, cropping, rotating and flipping): Check the new images before you publish them or delete the originals. Lossy formats such as JPG and WebP lose some quality each time they are saved, and the new files do not keep the original's EXIF, GPS, colour profile or other metadata.
- Removing photo metadata: Check cleaned photos before you share them. Remove EXIF Data removes only the metadata types it lists; it cannot remove information that is visible in the picture, contained in the file name or recorded by your device or other services.
- Text recognition (OCR): Recognized text can contain errors and does not keep the layout or tables of the original. Check it before you use or publish it, and process only images and documents you have the right to use.
- Favicons: Use only logos and images you have the right to use, and test the generated icons and HTML tags on the browsers and devices you support before publishing them.
- PDF editing (organizing, rotating, watermarks and page numbers): Edit only documents you are entitled to change, and check the result before you share it or delete the original. Editing a signed PDF invalidates its digital signatures, and bookmarks, form fields and some links may not be kept. A watermark is a visible label, not a protection against copying. The tools do not open password-protected PDFs and do not remove passwords or other restrictions.
- Dates and timestamps: Check converted dates, times and time zones before you use them in code, databases or schedules, especially around daylight saving changes, for historical or far-future dates, and when the timestamp unit was detected automatically.
6. Guides Are General Information
Guides, examples and explanations on LeedyBox are general information. They are not legal, security, financial or other professional advice, and they may not reflect the latest standards or your circumstances. Consult a qualified professional before making decisions that depend on such advice.
7. Third-Party Software and Services
The tools use open-source libraries, including PDF.js, pdf-lib, jsPDF, JSZip, SortableJS, Tesseract.js, js-yaml, PapaParse, qrcode-generator, JsBarcode, UPNG.js and pako. These libraries are provided under their own licenses (such as the Apache License 2.0 and the MIT License), which remain with their authors. The license texts of the libraries served from leedybox.com are in LICENSES.txt.
The site also relies on third-party services, such as hosting, content delivery networks, Google Analytics and Google AdSense, and may link to external websites. These services and sites are operated by others under their own terms, and LeedyBox is not responsible for their content or availability.
Contributions made through the platforms listed on the Support page are voluntary. They are not payment for any service or feature, and payments, receipts and refunds are handled under the terms of the platform you use.
8. Trademarks
QR Code is a registered trademark of DENSO WAVE INCORPORATED. Other product, format and company names mentioned on LeedyBox are the property of their respective owners and are used only to describe compatibility. Their use does not imply endorsement.
9. Service Availability and Changes to the Tools
Browser software, third-party libraries, supported file formats, and hosting environments are subject to change. Individual tools may be updated, restricted, or rendered temporarily unavailable at any time. We may add, change or remove tools, features and content without notice. We do not guarantee specific outputs, performance, or successful processing for every input file.
10. No Warranties
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the tools, guides and all other content are provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, availability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
11. Limitations of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, LeedyBox and its operator are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, data loss, file corruption or processing errors arising from the use of, or inability to use, the tools or content. You are responsible for keeping backups of your files and for verifying results before relying on them.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the law that applies to you.
12. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. Any changes will be published on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Continued use of LeedyBox after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
Frequently Asked Questions

Can LeedyBox remove a password from a PDF?
No. LeedyBox PDF tools do not open password-protected PDFs and do not remove passwords or other restrictions.
Should I keep a backup of my original file?
Yes. Keep original copies of important documents. Because processing occurs client-side in your browser, results can differ between files, browsers and devices.
