Legal
Terms of Service
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of FluxSend — a self-hostable file storage, sharing, and transfer platform (the "Service") — operated by Tomasz Skrond ("we", "our", or "us").
Please read them together with our Privacy Policy. By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. About the Service
FluxSend is a file-centric platform for uploading, storing, organising, previewing, and sharing files. It is available as a web application and as an API (including a CLI and API keys for programmatic access). The Service includes features such as file storage and folders, file previews, notes, targeted shares, quick-share links, an inbox of files shared with you, workspaces, and usage analytics.
FluxSend can be self-hosted. The software is open source, and anyone may run their own instance. These Terms apply to the instance we operate. If you use an instance operated by someone else, that operator's own terms may apply to you alongside these Terms.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 16 years old to use the Service. By creating an account you confirm that you meet this requirement, that you will provide accurate, complete, and current information, and that you will keep that information up to date. We may suspend or delete accounts that we believe do not meet these requirements.
3. Account
3.1 Creating an account
You may register with an email address and password, or sign in with Google or GitHub where those options are enabled on your instance. Each person may hold only one account. Creating duplicate accounts to circumvent plan limits or other restrictions is not permitted.
3.2 Account security
You are responsible for keeping your credentials and API keys confidential and for all activity that happens under your account. Do not share your account or keys with anyone else. If you suspect unauthorised access, notify us immediately at contact@fluxsend.win and change your password and revoke affected keys. We are not liable for loss or harm resulting from unauthorised access that reasonable precautions on your part could have prevented.
3.3 Account deletion
You may delete your account at any time from the Settings page, where you can also choose to delete the files you have uploaded. See our Privacy Policy for details on what is deleted and what may be retained after deletion.
4. Licence to use the Service
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Service for your own personal or internal business purposes, in accordance with these Terms and any plan limits that apply to your account. All rights not expressly granted here are reserved.
This licence covers your use of the hosted Service. It does not limit any rights you have under the open-source licence that applies to the FluxSend source code (see section 7.2).
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- upload or share content that is unlawful, infringing, malicious, or that you do not have the right to store and share — including malware, phishing material, and content that infringes intellectual property or privacy rights;
- use the Service to send spam or unsolicited bulk communications;
- attempt to bypass authentication, plan limits, quotas, or access controls;
- use automated scripts, bots, or scrapers to access the Service or its API in a way that disrupts or overloads it, other than through the documented API with a valid key;
- share, sell, rent, or transfer your account credentials or API keys to others;
- create multiple accounts to gain additional storage, quota, or allowances;
- transmit malware or otherwise interfere with the Service's infrastructure or the data of other users;
- use the Service in any way that violates applicable law or the rights of third parties.
You are responsible for the content you upload and share, and for making sure you have the necessary rights to do so. We may remove content or suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules. Violations may result in immediate suspension or termination.
6. Plans, limits, and quotas
The Service is available on a free tier and, depending on the instance, on higher tiers. Plan tiers are assigned by the instance administrator. The limits below describe a standard deployment and may be configured differently on a self-hosted instance.
| Plan | Storage | Max file size | Max files | Uploads / day | Shares / day |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 5 GB | 250 MB / file | 20 files | 5 | 10 |
| Developer | 50 GB | 2 GB / file | 500 files | 100 | 500 |
| Enterprise | 1 TB | 10 GB / file | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Custom | Tailored | Negotiated | Negotiated | Negotiated | Negotiated |
Daily upload and share counters reset at midnight UTC.
FluxSend is free and open-source software, and the Service itself does not process payments. We do not collect payment details and do not bill you. If an instance operator charges for access, that arrangement is between you and that operator, and their terms and refund policy apply.
7. Intellectual property
7.1 Our content
The FluxSend name, logo, interface, and documentation are owned by or licensed to Tomasz Skrond and are protected by Polish and international intellectual property law. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use our trademarks, logos, or other proprietary materials without our prior written consent.
7.2 Open-source software
The FluxSend source code is released under the MIT licence. That licence governs your use of the source code, and nothing in these Terms restricts the rights it grants you in respect of the code itself. These Terms govern your use of the hosted Service.
7.3 Your content
You keep ownership of the files and content you upload. You grant us a limited licence to store, process, transmit, and display your content only as needed to operate the Service — for example, to store your files, show previews, generate download links, and share files with recipients you choose. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies retained in backups for the periods described in our Privacy Policy.
8. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
In particular, we do not warrant that:
- the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free;
- files will always be available or will never be lost — you should keep your own backups of important data;
- the Service will meet your specific requirements.
Where applicable consumer protection law does not permit certain disclaimers, those disclaimers apply only to the maximum extent permitted.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, our total liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service is limited to the total amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months preceding the claim. Because the Service is provided free of charge, that amount is typically zero.
We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of data, loss of profit, or business interruption, even if we were advised of the possibility of such damages.
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability that cannot be excluded under Polish law, including liability for:
- death or personal injury caused by negligence;
- fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
- rights under the statutory guarantee for defective digital services (niezgodność treści cyfrowej z umową).
10. Indemnification
If you are using the Service in a commercial or business capacity (that is, you are not a consumer within the meaning of Polish law), you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Tomasz Skrond and any personnel from claims, damages, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your violation of these Terms, applicable law, or the rights of third parties. This section does not apply to consumers.
11. Termination
11.1 By you
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time (see section 3.3).
11.2 By us
We may suspend or terminate your account immediately and without notice if:
- you breach any provision of these Terms;
- we reasonably suspect fraud, abuse, or illegal activity;
- we are required to do so by law or a court order.
For less serious or first-time violations, we will try to give you notice and an opportunity to correct the issue before terminating.
11.3 Effect of termination
When your account is terminated, your licence to use the Service ends and you lose access to your account and the files associated with it. Data is retained and deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
12. Changes to the Service
We may add, modify, or remove features of the Service at any time. Where practicable, we will give reasonable advance notice of significant removals or changes that materially affect your use.
13. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. For material changes, we will notify you by email at least 30 days before the change takes effect and show a notice in the app. The updated Terms will be published with a new "Last updated" date. If you continue using the Service after the effective date, you accept the updated Terms. If you do not accept them, you may stop using the Service and delete your account.
14. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by Polish law, without regard to conflict-of-laws provisions.
For consumers: if you are a consumer in the EEA, you also benefit from any mandatory protections of the laws of your country of residence that cannot be waived by agreement. Consumer disputes may be submitted to the Polish Trade Inspection (Inspekcja Handlowa) for mediation, or through the EU Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
For non-consumers: any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Polish courts competent for our registered seat.
15. Miscellaneous
- Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, form the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
- Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions continue in full force.
- No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
- Assignment. You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
- Language. These Terms are written in English. In the event of a conflict between the English version and any translation, the English version prevails.
- Self-hosted instances. An instance operated by someone other than us is governed by that operator's terms, which apply in addition to these Terms for the software itself.
