Terms of Service for dir-tree

Section 01

Introduction

By accessing or using dir-tree, you ("User" or "you") agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you use dir-tree on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to accept these Terms for that organization.

• If you do not agree, do not use the website or directory tree workspace.

Section 02

Service Description

dir-tree provides a browser-based directory tree generator, visual editor, annotator, and exporter for developer documentation workflows.

• You can import local folders, local ZIP files, repository or ZIP URLs, tree command output, JSON, XML, HTML, and Markdown structures.
• You can edit the tree, hide noisy nodes, add annotations, request optional AI annotation, and export ASCII, Markdown, TXT, JSON, or clipboard-ready output.

Section 03

Your Content and Responsibilities

dir-tree works with directory structure rather than actual file contents. You are responsible for the names, paths, annotations, prompts, repository or ZIP URLs, copied output, and downloaded files you choose to load, edit, send, publish, or share.

• Do not load, send, export, or publish content unless you have the right to do so.
• Path names can reveal sensitive information even when file contents are not uploaded.
• For information about data dir-tree collects, see the Privacy Policy.

Section 04

Data Processing and External Services

dir-tree may process browser preferences, website analytics, infrastructure logs, remote ZIP request information, and optional AI annotation request data as described in the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

• Website analytics are used for aggregate measurement and are separate from directory tree content processing.
• Repository import, optional AI annotation, and remote ZIP URL workflows may involve external providers or hosts chosen by the workflow.

Section 05

Prohibited Uses

You may not use dir-tree for any purpose that is unlawful, harmful, abusive, or violates the rights of dir-tree, other users, or third parties.

• Do not process content, repository URLs, remote URLs, or prompts you do not have the right to access or share.
• Do not overload, disrupt, scrape, probe, or attempt unauthorized access to the service.
• Do not use AI annotation to generate unlawful, harmful, infringing, or abusive content.

Section 06

Intellectual Property

dir-tree and its original content, features, interface, branding, and functionality are owned by dir-tree and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

• You retain ownership of directory tree data, annotations, prompts, and other content you create or import.
• dir-tree grants you a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to access and use the service for your own documentation workflows.
• You may use exported output and AI-generated annotation drafts for your own documentation workflows without attribution to dir-tree.
• AI-generated annotation drafts may not be unique, and dir-tree does not guarantee exclusive rights in similar generated output.

Section 07

Disclaimer

dir-tree is provided on an as-is and as-available basis. We do not guarantee that directory reading, repository import, parsing, remote ZIP fetching, AI annotation, copy, or export will always be accurate, available, secure, or error-free.

• AI-generated annotations are drafts and may be inaccurate, incomplete, generic, or unsuitable for your project.
• Review generated annotations and exported output before relying on them.
• dir-tree is not legal, security, compliance, or architecture advice.

Section 08

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, dir-tree is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service.

• This includes loss of data, lost profits, business interruption, or reliance on AI-generated annotations.
• dir-tree's total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid dir-tree in the past 12 months, or zero for free users.
• Some jurisdictions do not allow liability limitations, so these limits may not apply to you.

Section 09

Governing Law

These Terms are intended to be governed by applicable law without regard to conflict-of-law principles, unless a specific jurisdiction is required by law and cannot be waived.

• Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limits or exclusions, so parts of these Terms may not apply to you.

Section 10

Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms as dir-tree changes. The updated date on this page will show when the current version took effect.

• Continued use of dir-tree after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access to dir-tree at any time, with or without notice, for conduct that violates these Terms or is otherwise harmful to the service or other users.

• You may stop using dir-tree at any time.
• Copied and downloaded output remains under your control after export.
