Terms of Service

Clear, fair terms for using SnapShark. We believe in transparency and mutual respect.

Last updated: 4 September 2026

Agreement to Terms

By accessing and using SnapShark ("the Service"), you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provision of this agreement. If you do not agree to abide by the above, please do not use this service.

Key Point: These terms apply to all users, whether using free or paid features. You must be at least 16 years old to create an account.

Service Description

What SnapShark Provides

  • • Client-side image processing and optimization
  • • Format conversion, resizing, and compression tools
  • • AI-powered background removal
  • • Underwater photo color correction
  • • Print package generation with multiple sizes
  • • A personal dive Logbook that saves places, dives, notes, and photos to your account
  • • Optional share links so you can send a trip or place to someone else

Image Tools vs. the Logbook

Image processing happens locally in your browser, and those images are never uploaded to us. The Logbook works differently: anything you choose to save there, including photos you attach, is stored on our servers so it is available across your devices. Our Privacy Policy explains exactly what is stored and for how long.

User Responsibilities

Acceptable Use

You agree to use SnapShark only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these terms.

  • • Process only images you own or have permission to use
  • • Respect intellectual property rights
  • • Do not attempt to reverse engineer or exploit the service
  • • Do not use the service to process illegal content

Account Security

  • • Keep your account credentials secure
  • • Notify us immediately of any unauthorized access
  • • You are responsible for all activity under your account

Prohibited Uses

You may not use SnapShark for any of the following purposes:

Content Restrictions

  • • Illegal, harmful, or offensive content
  • • Copyrighted material without permission
  • • Content that violates others' privacy
  • • Malicious or harmful files

Technical Abuse

  • • Automated or excessive usage
  • • Attempts to bypass limitations
  • • Interfering with service operation
  • • Attempting to access restricted areas

Subscription & Billing

Free vs Pro Features

All core features are available for free. Pro subscriptions add convenience and efficiency:

  • • Free: Process images one at a time using presets
  • • Pro: Batch processing and instant package generation
  • • Pro: Priority customer support

Billing Terms

  • • Monthly or yearly billing cycles
  • • Automatic renewal unless cancelled
  • • Pro-rated refunds for annual plans (first 30 days)
  • • Cancel anytime through account settings

Payment Processing

All payments are processed securely by Stripe. We do not store your payment information.

Consumer Cancellation Rights (UK & EU)

If you are a consumer in the UK or EEA you normally have 14 days to cancel a new subscription and receive a refund. By starting to use Pro features straight away you ask us to begin the service immediately, and you may be charged for what you have used up to the point you cancel. To cancel within this period, email snapshark2025@gmail.com.

Intellectual Property

Your Content

You keep all rights to your images and to everything you save in your Logbook. Images you run through the processing tools stay on your device and are never sent to us.

For Logbook content only, you give us a limited licence to store, copy, and display that content back to you so we can operate the feature. If you turn sharing on, that licence also covers showing the shared trip or place to people who open the link. We do not otherwise publish your entries, sell them, or use them to train models. The licence ends when you delete the content, turn sharing off, or delete your account.

You are responsible for what you upload. Only add photos you have the right to use, and be careful about uploading images or details that identify other people without their agreement.

Our Service

SnapShark, including its code, design, and algorithms, is protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, or distribute our service without permission.

Open Source Components

We use various open-source libraries and tools. Their respective licenses apply to those components.

Disclaimers & Limitations

Service Availability

We strive for high availability but cannot guarantee 100% uptime. The service is provided "as is" without warranties.

Processing Results

While we work to provide high-quality results, image processing quality may vary. Results depend on input quality and browser capabilities.

Keep Your Own Copies

The Logbook is a convenience, not a backup service or an official dive record. Please keep your own copies of photos and any dive information that matters to you, and do not rely on it for dive planning or safety decisions.

Limitation of Liability

Except as set out below, our liability is limited to the amount you paid for the service in the past 12 months, and we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.

Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be limited by law. If you are a consumer, you keep all rights given to you by the consumer law of your home country, and nothing here overrides them.

Account Termination

Your Right to Terminate

You may cancel your account at any time through account settings. Subscription cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period.

Our Right to Terminate

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, engage in abuse, or for technical/security reasons. We'll provide notice when possible.

Effect of Termination

When you close your account, your access to Pro features ends and your Logbook content is deleted, including photos held in our storage. You can also export or delete your Logbook at any time from your account page without closing your account. We keep billing records where the law requires it. Export anything you want to keep before you delete it, because deletion cannot be undone.

Changes to Terms

How We Update Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we'll notify users via email and update the "Last updated" date.

Your Agreement to Changes

Continued use of SnapShark after term updates constitutes acceptance of the new terms. If you don't agree with changes, please discontinue use.
