Terms of Service for Linkbucket

Last updated: 2026-05-24

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of Linkbucket ("we", "us", "our", or "the Service"), a paid web-based service for securely saving and managing your links, including any websites, applications, browser extensions, APIs, and related services we provide (collectively, the "Service").

By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind such entity and its users. If you do not have such authority or do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

1. Eligibility

  • You must be 18 years or older to use the Service.
  • Accounts registered by "bots" or other automated methods are not permitted.

2. Account Registration

  • You must provide a valid email address and password to register.
  • Your login is personal and may only be used by one person. If your plan allows multiple seats, each user must have a separate login.
  • You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity under your account.
  • You agree to provide accurate information and keep it up to date.

3. Subscriptions, Billing, Taxes, and Refunds

  • Linkbucket is a subscription-based paid service. Payments are processed by Stripe.
  • Subscriptions bill in advance on a monthly or annual basis and renew automatically unless you cancel before the end of the current billing period.
  • Upgrades take effect immediately and may be prorated; downgrades apply at the next billing cycle and may reduce features or capacity.
  • All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes (including VAT) unless stated otherwise. You are responsible for any applicable taxes.
  • Failed payments and chargebacks: we may suspend or limit access for unpaid amounts and may recover reasonable costs associated with chargebacks.
  • Refunds: except as required by law, fees are non-refundable. EEA consumers have a 14-day right of withdrawal for digital services that have not yet begun. By accessing Linkbucket during that period, you request immediate performance and acknowledge losing the withdrawal right once performance begins.
  • First-time subscribers: as a customer-friendly policy, new users may cancel within 30 days of first subscribing and receive a full refund. Contact hello@linkbucket.app.

4. Use of the Service

  • You may use the Service for personal or organizational purposes in accordance with these Terms and applicable law.
  • You agree not to:
    • Use the Service for illegal, harmful, infringing, or abusive activities.
    • Upload malware, spam, or content that violates third-party rights.
    • Impersonate others or misrepresent your affiliation.
    • Attempt to gain unauthorized access or interfere with the operation or security of the Service.
    • Reproduce, copy, sell, resell, or exploit the Service except as permitted by these Terms.

5. Acceptable Use (Additional Restrictions)

  • No probing, scanning, or testing the vulnerability of any system or network; no circumventing security or technical measures.
  • No reverse engineering, decompilation, or access rate circumvention.
  • No automated scraping or data harvesting outside our public API using your own account and API keys, and within documented rate limits.
  • No benchmarking or publication of performance tests without our prior written consent.
  • If your usage (including bandwidth or API calls) significantly exceeds typical usage patterns, we may throttle or suspend your access to protect service stability.

6. API Keys and Developer Terms

  • You may generate API keys to access the Service programmatically (including via browser extensions).
  • API keys are shown once and we store only a cryptographic digest. You may deactivate keys at any time; deactivated keys cannot be reactivated.
  • You are responsible for safeguarding your keys and for all activity performed with them.
  • Abuse or excessive usage of the API (as determined in our discretion) may result in temporary or permanent suspension of API access. We will make reasonable attempts to notify you in advance.
  • We may modify or discontinue API access at any time with or without notice.
  • To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for damages arising from your use of the API or third-party products that access data via the API.

7. Intellectual Property and License

We and our licensors own all rights, title, and interest in and to Linkbucket and its content, including software, design, interfaces, and trademarks ("Linkbucket IP"). Except for the limited rights expressly granted below, no rights are transferred.

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Service during your subscription term in accordance with these Terms.

8. Your Content and License to Us

You retain all right, title, and interest in and to the content you save or create in Linkbucket, including URLs, titles, descriptions, notes, tags, attachments, and related metadata ("Your Content"). We do not claim ownership of Your Content.

Web archives (personal backups). When you save a link, we automatically create and store a personal backup copy of the page so it remains available to you if the original changes or goes offline. You choose what to save, and by saving a link you direct us to make that copy for your own reference. You represent that you are entitled to make a personal copy of the pages you save and that doing so does not infringe anyone else's rights. We create and host the copy on your behalf, as a neutral service carrying out your instruction — we do not select, endorse, or control the archived content. If you believe an archived page infringes your rights, see the Copyright and Takedown process in Section 13.

You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, revocable license to host, store, process, transmit, and display Your Content solely to provide, maintain, secure, and improve the Service and to comply with law. We do not use Your Content for advertising, and we do not sell Your Content.

If you choose to share or make content public, you grant us the rights necessary to display and distribute that content as you direct. You can stop sharing at any time; this does not affect copies already accessed by others.

When you delete Your Content or close your account, we remove it from live systems promptly and it falls out of encrypted backups within 30 days (see our Privacy Policy for details). Limited records may be retained as required by law or for security, fraud prevention, and audit.

9. Feedback

If you provide ideas or suggestions, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use and incorporate that feedback without obligation to you.

10. Privacy and Data

  • Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data.
  • You retain ownership of Your Content.
  • We do not sell, share, or use your data for advertising or analytics.

11. Service Availability and Changes

  • We make reasonable efforts to provide a reliable and secure service, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation and do not provide a service level agreement.
  • We may add, change, or remove features. For changes that materially reduce core functionality or deprecate APIs, we will provide reasonable advance notice and, where feasible, a migration path.
  • You can export or delete your data at any time as described in our Privacy Policy.
  • To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for losses arising from service interruptions or changes (see Limitation of Liability).

12. Cancellation and Termination

  • You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. You may also contact hello@linkbucket.app for assistance.
  • Cancellation stops future renewals; your current paid period remains active.
  • To permanently terminate your account, use the account deletion option or contact us. Deletion removes your data from live systems promptly, and it will fall out of encrypted backups within 30 days.
  • We may suspend or terminate your account for violations of these Terms or harmful/unlawful use.

13. Copyright and Takedown

We respect intellectual property and other rights. If you believe material accessible via the Service is unlawful or infringes your rights, contact us at hello@linkbucket.app with a notice that includes:

  • Your name and contact details.
  • The exact location of the material — the URL(s) or enough detail to identify it.
  • Identification of the right you hold and an explanation of why the material is unlawful or infringing.
  • A statement that you believe, in good faith, that the information in your notice is accurate and complete.

We act on valid notices without undue delay and may remove or disable access to the material. Where appropriate, we will inform the affected user of the action and the reasons for it, give them an opportunity to respond, and we may suspend or terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

This process reflects our obligations as a hosting service under Norwegian law and the EU/EEA framework (the e-Commerce rules and the Digital Services Act) and does not limit any rights or remedies you may have under applicable law.

14. Warranties and Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

15. Limitation of Liability

  • To the maximum extent permitted by law, Linkbucket and its team are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, or business arising from or related to your use of the Service.
  • Our total liability for any claim arising out of these Terms or your use of the Service will not exceed the amount you paid to us for the Service in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
  • Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law. These limitations do not apply to liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

16. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Linkbucket, its affiliates, directors, and employees harmless from any claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses arising from Your Content, the pages you save and the web archives created at your direction, your use of the Service in violation of these Terms, or your violation of law or third-party rights.

17. Statutory Rights

Nothing in these Terms limits your statutory rights under Norwegian or EU law.

18. Export Controls and Sanctions

You must comply with applicable export control and sanctions laws. You represent that you are not a prohibited person and will not use the Service in embargoed countries or for prohibited end uses.

19. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. For material changes, we will notify you via email and/or a prominent notice. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.

20. Governing Law and Disputes

  • These Terms are governed by Norwegian law.
  • Any disputes will be resolved by the courts of Norway.
  • EU consumers: you may access the EU Online Dispute Resolution platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are not obliged to participate in ADR procedures.

21. Miscellaneous

  • Assignment: You may not assign these Terms without our prior consent. We may assign in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
  • Force Majeure: Neither party is liable for delays or failures due to events beyond reasonable control.
  • Severability and Waiver: If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect. Failure to enforce is not a waiver.
  • Entire Agreement: These Terms are the entire agreement regarding your use of the Service and supersede prior agreements on that subject.
  • Third-Party Sites: Links saved or accessed via the Service are the responsibility of their respective owners; we do not endorse and are not responsible for their content.
  • Survival: Provisions that by their nature should survive termination remain in effect, including the sections on Intellectual Property and License, Your Content and License to Us, Feedback, Warranties and Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, Governing Law and Disputes, and this clause.
