Terms of Service

Last updated: April 16, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using SaveEditor (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

SaveEditor is a web-based tool that allows users to upload, parse, view, edit, and download game save files and other structured data files. The Service supports multiple file formats and provides tree, table, and hex view editors.

3. User Responsibilities

  • You are solely responsible for the files you upload and any modifications you make to them.
  • You must have the legal right to access and modify any files you upload.
  • You agree not to use the Service for any illegal purpose, including but not limited to modifying save files to violate game terms of service in online/multiplayer contexts.
  • You agree not to attempt to circumvent rate limits, overload the Service, or exploit vulnerabilities.
  • You agree not to upload malicious files designed to exploit the parsing engine.

4. File Handling

  • Files are uploaded to our servers for parsing only. They are stored in ephemeral server storage and automatically deleted within 30 minutes.
  • We log file metadata (filename, format, size, IP address) for rate limiting and abuse prevention, but we do not read, inspect, log, or retain the actual contents of your files beyond what is necessary for parsing.
  • Always back up your original save files before editing. We are not responsible for data loss resulting from edited files.

5. Disclaimer of Warranties

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

We do not warrant that:

  • The Service will be uninterrupted or error-free
  • File parsing will be 100% accurate for all formats
  • Edited files will function correctly in their target application
  • The Service will be compatible with all file formats or games

6. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SAVEEDITOR AND ITS OPERATORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GAME PROGRESS, CORRUPTED SAVE FILES, OR ACCOUNT BANS RESULTING FROM THE USE OF EDITED FILES.

Our total liability for any claim arising from the use of the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or $10, whichever is greater.

7. Free and Pro Tiers

  • Free Tier: No daily upload cap; a short rolling cooldown applies (currently ~4 uploads per 2-minute window per IP). Advertisements may be displayed. The exact cooldown values may change from time to time as we tune for abuse.
  • Pro Tier: Available via paid subscription (rolling out). Includes no cooldown, no advertisements, batch editing and additional features as described on the pricing page.
  • We reserve the right to change pricing, features, and limits at any time with reasonable notice.
  • Pro subscriptions are managed through Stripe. Cancellation and refund policies follow Stripe's terms.

7a. Community Saves Submissions

The optional Community Saves library lets you publish a save file so other users can download it. By submitting a save you represent that:

  • You have the legal right to share the file (e.g. it is your own save data, derived from a game you legally own).
  • The file does not contain personal information about other people, malware, illegal content, or material that infringes someone else's copyright, trademark, or other rights.
  • You grant SaveEditor a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, copy, distribute and display the submitted file and its metadata for the purpose of operating the Community Saves library.
  • You can request removal of your own submissions at any time by emailing the address in section 13.

We reserve the right to remove any community submission at any time, for any reason, including in response to abuse reports or DMCA notices.

8. Intellectual Property

The SaveEditor application, its code, design, and branding are the property of SaveEditor. You retain full ownership of any files you upload and any modifications you make. We claim no rights to your data.

9. Prohibited Uses

You may not use the Service to:

  • Violate any applicable law or regulation
  • Infringe on the intellectual property rights of others
  • Distribute malware, executables disguised as save files, or other malicious content
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its systems
  • Use automated tools to scrape, mirror, or overload the Service
  • Cheat in online or competitive games in ways that materially harm other players

9a. DMCA & Copyright Complaints

We respect intellectual property rights and respond to valid takedown notices under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) and equivalent foreign laws. To submit a notice, email contact.saveeditor@gmail.com with:

  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
  • The exact URL(s) of the allegedly infringing material on this Service.
  • Your contact information (name, address, telephone number, email).
  • A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that you are authorised to act on the owner's behalf.
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

We will respond to valid notices in a reasonable time and may, at our discretion, remove or disable access to the material. Repeat infringers may have their accounts terminated.

9b. Age Requirement

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher) to use the Service. The Service is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us at the email below and we will delete it.

10. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, for any reason, including violation of these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately.

11. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with applicable law, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

12. Changes to Terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms. We will update the "Last updated" date when changes are made.
