Web Online Board does not claim any ownership, copyright, or moral rights over your user content. Because our canvas operates locally in your browser memory and IndexedDB, we do not inspect, host, duplicate, license, or sell your proprietary work to third parties.

Clause 04

  • Educational Institutions: K-12 classrooms, university lectures, online tutoring, and academic research.
  • Content Creators: Creating illustrations, technical diagrams, video tutorials, and published articles without requiring attribution (though a link back is always appreciated!).

5. Acceptable Use Policy

When using Web Online Board, you agree not to engage in any of the following prohibited behaviors:

  • Network Abuse: Attempting to overwhelm, flood, or conduct Denial of Service (DoS/DDoS) attacks against our web servers, CDNs, or WebRTC signaling infrastructure.

6. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR UNINTERRUPTED AVAILABILITY.

While we strive for sub-millisecond drawing fluidity, 60fps canvas performance, and high browser reliability across Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and mobile tablets, we do not warrant that the Service will be completely bug-free, continuous, or compatible with all legacy web browsers.

Clause 07

7. Limitation of Liability & Data Backups

Because Web Online Board operates on a local-first storage architecture (IndexedDB), your drawings reside directly within your local browser sandbox.

Important Backup Recommendation

To safeguard important project boards against inadvertent browser cache clearance, private browsing resets, or operating system reinstalls, we strongly recommend regularly exporting your boards as .json workspace backups (via Export > Backup JSON) or high-resolution images.

Under no circumstances shall Web Online Board or its operators be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including data loss or lost profits, resulting from your use of or inability to use the platform.

Clause 08

8. Open Source & Third-Party Assets

Web Online Board incorporates select open-source libraries (e.g. Lucide Icons, Mermaid.js, Geist font family) licensed under permissive open-source licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0, or OFL). All respective copyrights and trademarks remain the property of their respective creators.

Clause 09

9. Modifications to the Service & Terms

We continuously refine and improve Web Online Board by introducing new templates, tools, and performance optimizations. We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. When updates are published, the effective date will be revised. Continued use of the website following published modifications constitutes your binding acceptance.
