DMCA Policy

Last Updated: April 5, 2026

This DMCA Policy describes how ToolWave responds to claims of copyright infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable intellectual property laws.

Our Commitment to Intellectual Property Rights

ToolWave respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects our users to do the same. We have implemented this DMCA Policy to provide a clear process for addressing alleged copyright infringement on our website.

Important Note About Our Service

ToolWave provides browser-based utility tools that process files entirely on the client-side. This means:

• No File Storage: User files are never uploaded to or stored on our servers
• Client-Side Processing: All file processing occurs in the user's web browser
• Temporary Processing: Files exist only in the browser's memory during processing

Due to our client-side architecture, we do not host, store, or distribute user content, which significantly limits the potential for copyright infringement through our platform.
