3. Description of the Service
Cloud Files is an online platform designed for secure, convenient, and efficient transfer and sharing of digital files.
The Service enables registered users to upload files, create file transfers, share download links, and allow authorized recipients to download transferred content.
Depending on the account category and available functionality, the Service may include:
Single and multiple-file transfers.
Secure file-sharing links.
Downloading individual files or complete file packages.
File transfer notifications.
Temporary file storage.
Transfer management through a personal Dashboard.
Additional features available to Pro subscribers.
Cloud Files is primarily a file transfer service and is not intended to replace a permanent file storage or backup solution unless explicitly stated otherwise.
4. Account Categories
Cloud Files provides two customer account categories.
4.1 Cloudfiles Free User
A Free account provides access to the basic file transfer functionality without a subscription fee.
Free accounts may be subject to limitations regarding file sizes, transfer volumes, storage periods, and available features.
A Free account includes a total upload allowance. Deleting uploaded files does not restore the allowance. Once the allowance has been used, no further files can be uploaded until the account is upgraded to Pro or reset by Cloud Files.
4.2 Cloudfiles Pro User
A Pro account provides access to additional functionality and service limits according to the selected subscription.
Subscription prices, applicable limits, billing periods, and included features will be presented before purchase.
Cloud Files reserves the right to modify available features and account limitations, subject to applicable law and any contractual commitments.
Administrative accounts are used internally for management and operation of the Service and do not constitute a separate customer subscription plan.
5. Registration and Account Security
To access certain features, users must create a personal account.
Users agree to provide accurate and complete registration information and to keep this information updated.
Each user is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials.
Users must not share their account credentials with unauthorized persons or attempt to access another user’s account.
Any suspected unauthorized access or security breach should be reported promptly to Cloud Files Customer Service.
Cloud Files may implement additional authentication and security requirements to protect user accounts and the Service.
7. File Ownership and Intellectual Property
Users are responsible for selecting the correct files and intended recipients before initiating a transfer.
The user is responsible for ensuring that recipients are authorized to receive the shared content.
Cloud Files cannot guarantee that a file will be downloaded by its intended recipient before the transfer expires.
Users should verify the accuracy of recipient information and exercise appropriate care when sharing confidential or sensitive files.
Cloud Files may establish technical restrictions on file types, file sizes, transfer volumes, and transfer frequency to maintain security and service stability.

10. File Storage and Expiration
Uploaded files are stored temporarily to facilitate file transfers.
Storage periods may vary depending on the user’s account category, transfer settings, and applicable service limitations.
The applicable expiration date or retention period will be made available through the Service.
Once a transfer expires, its files may become unavailable for download and will be deleted according to the applicable deletion procedures.
If a transfer has not been downloaded within 7 days, the sender and recipient will receive a reminder by email, and by SMS where SMS notification was used. If a transfer has not been downloaded within 14 days, the transfer is cancelled and its files are deleted. The sender and recipient will be informed.
Cloud Files does not guarantee that expired or deleted files can be recovered.
Users are strongly encouraged to retain independent copies of all important files.
11. File Downloads and Sharing Links
Cloud Files may generate unique download links for transferred files.
Users are responsible for distributing these links only to their intended recipients.
Unless additional access restrictions are enabled, anyone possessing a valid download link may be able to access the associated files.
Where supported, download links may be subject to expiration dates, passwords, download restrictions, or other access controls.
Cloud Files is not responsible for unauthorized distribution of a download link caused by the sender or recipient, except where liability arises from Cloud Files’ own breach of applicable legal obligations.
12. Fees, Subscriptions and Payments
Registration and use of a Cloudfiles Free account are free of charge within the applicable service limitations.
Cloudfiles Pro accounts require payment according to the selected subscription plan.
All applicable subscription prices, billing periods, taxes, and renewal conditions will be disclosed before the Customer confirms a purchase.
Where a subscription renews automatically, the renewal terms and cancellation procedures will be clearly communicated.
Account periods and renewal:
Each account has an account period with an expiry date, which is shown in the Customer Dashboard. A Free account runs for 12 months. A Pro account runs for the subscription period the Customer has paid for.
The Customer will receive a reminder by email and in the Dashboard 7 days before the expiry date.
Pro subscriptions paid by card for one month or for one to three years renew automatically at the end of each period, unless the Customer switches automatic renewal off. Automatic renewal can be switched off at any time in the Customer Dashboard, and the period already paid for continues until its expiry date. Subscriptions for four or five years, and subscriptions paid by other payment methods, do not renew automatically.
If an automatic payment fails, the payment provider may retry the payment within the limits permitted by the card networks and applicable law. If the payment has not succeeded within 3 days, the Customer will be informed by email and given the opportunity to update the payment card or pay manually.
If a Pro subscription is not renewed, Pro features are suspended 7 days after the expiry date, and the account is closed 14 days after the expiry date. The account can be reactivated by renewing the subscription.
If a Free account is not renewed, the account is set to inactive after the expiry date. Account information is retained as described in the Privacy Policy.
Users may cancel subscriptions in accordance with the conditions presented at purchase and applicable consumer protection legislation.
Mandatory consumer rights, including any applicable withdrawal rights, remain unaffected by these Terms.
Cloud Files may use authorized third-party payment providers to process transactions securely.
13. Service Availability
Cloud Files aims to provide a reliable and continuously accessible file transfer service.
However, uninterrupted availability cannot be guaranteed.
Temporary interruptions may occur due to:
Scheduled maintenance.
Software updates.
Technical failures.

Security incidents.
Events beyond our reasonable control.
Cloud Files may temporarily restrict access where necessary to maintain security, protect infrastructure, or restore normal operations.
Where reasonably possible, users will be informed of significant planned interruptions.
14. Security and Customer Responsibilities
Cloud Files implements technical and organizational measures intended to protect the Service and its users.

No internet-based service can guarantee complete protection against every security risk.
Cloud Files will handle security incidents in accordance with applicable legal obligations.
Further information about the processing and protection of personal data is provided in the separate Privacy Policy.
15. Privacy and Personal Data

However, Cloud Files cannot guarantee that every file transfer will be completed successfully or that the Service will always operate without interruption.
Users are responsible for maintaining backup copies of their original files.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Cloud Files is not responsible for losses resulting from circumstances outside its reasonable control or from misuse of the Service by users or third parties.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for gross negligence, intentional misconduct, or any liability or consumer right that cannot legally be excluded or restricted.
19. Changes to the Service
Cloud Files may update, improve, modify, or discontinue individual features to maintain or develop the Service.
Where changes materially affect paid subscriptions or existing contractual rights, users will receive appropriate notice and retain any rights provided by applicable law.
Changes will not retroactively remove mandatory consumer protections.

Cloud Files may revise these Terms to reflect changes in legislation, security requirements, service functionality, or operational practices.
The latest version will be published on cloudfilecenter.com.
Material changes will be communicated through appropriate channels, which may include email notifications or messages displayed in the Customer Dashboard.
Where required by law, users will be asked to accept revised Terms before continuing to use the Service.
