5. Intellectual Property

The JSON-parser.net brand, logo, design, and original code are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, or distribute our branding without permission.

Your data remains your property. We claim no ownership over any JSON, YAML, or other data you process using our tools.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, JSON-parser.net and its operators shall not be liable for any:

• Direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages
• Loss of profits, data, or business opportunities
• Damages arising from use or inability to use the Service
• Damages from reliance on any information obtained through the Service

This limitation applies even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

7. Third-Party Content

The Service may display advertisements from third-party networks (such as Google AdSense). We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or opinions expressed in third-party advertisements. Your interactions with advertisers are solely between you and the advertiser.

8. Service Availability

We strive to maintain high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to:

• Scheduled maintenance
• Technical difficulties or server issues
• Network or infrastructure problems
• Force majeure events

Since the core functionality works offline after initial page load, you can continue using the tool even during service interruptions.

9. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms of Service at any time. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting to this page. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.

10. Termination

We reserve the right to terminate or restrict access to the Service at any time, for any reason, without notice. Since the tool processes data locally, you can continue using cached versions of the site even after termination.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless JSON-parser.net and its operators from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including legal fees) arising from your use of the Service or violation of these terms.

12. Governing Law

These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with applicable laws. Any disputes arising from these terms or use of the Service shall be resolved through appropriate legal channels.

13. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
