Acceptable Use Policy: Permitted and Prohibited Uses
1. Purpose & Scope
ToolKB provides free, client-side digital productivity tools to help users prepare legitimate application photos, merge documents, create invoices, and generate QR codes.
This Acceptable Use Policy defines the standards of conduct required of all visitors and users of ToolKB. By accessing our services, you agree to comply with this policy and all applicable laws.
2. Prohibited Activities
You agree not to use ToolKB or its output to engage in, facilitate, or promote any of the following activities:
A. Fraud, Deception & Identity Falsification
- Document & Credential Forgery: Using our photo, signature, or PDF tools to falsify government identity cards, exam admit cards, certificates, visas, educational diplomas, or legal credentials.
- Impersonation: Processing signatures, likenesses, or biographical details of another individual without their explicit, lawful authorization.
- Fraudulent Invoicing: Generating fake, misleading, or unauthorized GST tax invoices, fictitious billing receipts, or documents designed to evade taxation or defraud customers or authorities.
- Payment & Phishing QR Codes: Generating UPI QR codes, Wi-Fi QR codes, or shortlinks designed to deceive victims into sending money to fraudulent accounts, harvesting credentials, or downloading malware.
B. Intellectual Property & Content Violations
- Copyright Infringement: Processing, converting, or manipulating copyrighted artwork, photography, or publications without the rights holder's authorization.
- Unlawful Rights Removal: Using metadata stripping or image manipulation features to strip copyright management information or obscure intellectual property ownership on protected third-party assets without permission.
- Obscene & Unlawful Media: Processing child sexual abuse material (CSAM), non-consensual intimate imagery, hate speech, violent extremism, or content promoting unlawful violence.
C. Infrastructure, Security & Network Abuse
- Malware Distribution: Uploading, converting, or embedding viruses, trojans, worms, logic bombs, ransomware, or malicious payloads into files or archives.
- Denial of Service (DoS): Launching attacks or conducting automated floods that impose an unreasonable or disproportionately heavy load on our hosting infrastructure.
- Exploitation & Unauthorized Probing: Probing, scanning, or testing the vulnerability of our application, headers, or infrastructure without explicit, prior written permission from the site operator.
- Malicious Scraping: Deploying automated scripts, scrapers, or bots that degrade website responsiveness or circumvent technical protections.
3. Zero-Upload Architecture & User Privacy
Because ToolKB executes processing 100% locally on your device, our servers do not intercept, monitor, or review the files or text you process.
The absence of proactive file inspection does not imply permission to engage in unlawful activity. You remain entirely and exclusively accountable under civil and criminal law for all files and documents you create, download, or distribute using our platform.
4. Enforcement & Consequences
We take violations of this policy seriously. In response to confirmed abusive behavior or external complaints, ToolKB reserves the right to take proportionate technical and legal actions, including:
- Temporarily or permanently blocking abusive IP addresses or subnets at the CDN firewall level.
- Rate-limiting automated scrapers.
- Cooperating with law enforcement authorities and statutory bodies where required by applicable legal process.
5. Reporting Abuse

Please provide all relevant details, including context, dates, and evidence, to assist our review.
