Terms of Use

Last updated: 12 November 2026

1. Who runs Yaqgu

Yaqgu (yaqgu.com) is an independent project run by its founder, based in India. It is not yet a registered company. "We" and "us" below mean the person running Yaqgu. You can reach us at [email protected].

2. Agreeing to these terms

By using yaqgu.com or any tool on it, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. You must be old enough to enter a binding agreement where you live, or have a parent or guardian's permission.

3. What the tools do, and what they do not

The tools process what you give them on your own device. Redact for AI looks for personal and sensitive details in text and swaps them for placeholders.

• No tool finds everything. Redact for AI can miss names, numbers, addresses or other private details, and it can hide things that are not private. Detection is automatic and is never 100% accurate.
• You must review the output. Read the result before you paste it into any AI service, send it, or share it. What you send to others is your decision and your responsibility.
• Not professional advice. Nothing here is legal, compliance, security, medical or financial advice. Using a tool does not make you compliant with any law, contract or policy (for example GDPR, HIPAA, India's DPDP Act, or your employer's rules).
• Not for high-stakes use on its own. Do not use the tools as your only safeguard for data where a mistake could cause serious harm.

4. Your responsibilities

• Only process content you have the right to use.
• Follow the laws that apply to you and the rules of your workplace and of any AI service you use.
• Do not misuse the site: no attacks, no attempts to break or overload it, no use for unlawful purposes.
• Placeholders are kept only in your browser tab. If you close the tab or choose "Forget everything", they cannot be restored. Keep your own copy of anything important.

5. No warranty

The site and all tools are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, including accuracy, completeness, reliability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not promise that the tools will be error-free, uninterrupted, secure, or that they will detect all personal or sensitive information.

6. Limit of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Yaqgu and the person running it are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, the site or tools. This includes data leaks or disclosure of personal or confidential information, missed or incorrect detections, lost data, lost profits, business interruption, and any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, even if we were told such loss was possible. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us for the product in the 12 months before the claim, or INR 1,000 if you paid nothing, or the lowest amount the law permits if that is higher.

Some places do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of sections 5 and 6 may not apply to you. Nothing in these terms removes rights you have under law that cannot be waived.

7. Indemnity

If someone makes a claim against us because of content you processed or shared, or because you broke these terms or the law, you agree to cover the resulting costs and losses, to the extent the law allows.

8. Our content and name

The site, its code, design and the Yaqgu name and logo belong to us. You may use the tools for personal and business work. You may not copy, resell, re-host, reverse engineer or build a competing service from the site or its code, except where the law gives you that right. Open-source components keep their own licences.

9. Paid subscription (Yaqgu Pro)

• What you buy. Yaqgu Pro is a personal, non-transferable subscription that unlocks the paid features of Yaqgu browser tools while the subscription is active. It is billed monthly or yearly. The current prices, which depend on your billing country, and the feature list are on the Pricing page.
• Turning Pro on. You sign in with Google or Microsoft before you pay. Pro then turns on by itself after payment, and on other devices when you sign in with the same account. It works while your subscription is active, on your own devices. It is for you personally: do not share your sign-in or resell access. We may switch off Pro for an account that is shared or abused.
• Renewal and cancelling. A subscription renews automatically at the end of each month or year, at the price for your country, until you cancel. You can cancel at any time from the link in your receipt email or by emailing [email protected]. Pro keeps working until the end of the period you have already paid for, and cancelling does not refund that period except as set out in the Refund policy. If a renewal payment fails and is not fixed, Pro stops.
• Price changes. If we change the price, we will give you at least 30 days' notice before it applies to your next renewal, so you can cancel first.
• What a subscription covers. It gives you access to the Pro features of the product as they exist and as they are released while you are subscribed. We do not promise any particular future feature.
• Ending the service. We may discontinue a paid product or Yaqgu itself. We will give at least 30 days' notice on this site and by email to buyers. Features that already run in your browser may keep working as long as the code is available, but we do not guarantee it.
• Payments and taxes. Payments are handled by our payment partner, which acts as the seller (merchant of record) and collects any tax that applies. Its terms apply to the payment itself.
• Refunds. See the Refund policy. You can ask for a full refund within 14 days of any charge, including a renewal.

10. Changes and availability

We may change, pause or remove any tool, and update these terms, at any time. The date at the top shows the latest version. Using the site after a change means you accept the new terms.

11. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of India. Courts in India have jurisdiction over any dispute, subject to any consumer rights you have where you live. If one part of these terms is found invalid, the rest still applies.
