Foldvia Terms of Service
Effective date: 〔YYYY-MM-DD〕
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Foldvia desktop application ("Foldvia", the "App"), published by Laventis Strategic Ltd (元構策略有限公司) ("Laventis", "we", "us"), a company registered in Taiwan (R.O.C.). By installing or using the App, you agree to these Terms.
1. The service
Foldvia is a local-first desktop application that lets you connect your own third-party cloud-storage accounts (such as Google Drive) and browse your files across them in a single unified view. The App runs on your device and communicates directly with each cloud provider's API; we do not operate a server that handles your cloud file contents or metadata.
2. Your accounts and authorization
- You are responsible for your own cloud-provider accounts and for complying with each provider's terms.
- You authorize Foldvia to access a connected account only to the extent of the
permissions (OAuth scopes) you grant. For Google Drive, the App requests read-only access
(
drive.readonly), which lets it list your files and download their contents at your request; it does not modify, delete, or upload to your Drive. - You may revoke authorization at any time from within the App or via your provider's account-permissions page.
3. Use of Google services
Your use of features that connect to Google services is additionally subject to Google's applicable terms.
Foldvia's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
See our Privacy Policy for the specific Limited Use commitments.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to use the App to: violate any law or any cloud provider's terms; access data you are not authorized to access; or interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any provider's systems.
5. Intellectual property
The App, including its name, logo, and software, is owned by Laventis and its licensors. These Terms grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App. Your files and data remain yours; we claim no ownership over them.
6. Third-party services
Foldvia interoperates with third-party cloud providers that we do not control. We are not responsible for those services, their availability, or their handling of your data under their own terms and policies.
7. Disclaimers
The App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any file representation is complete. Foldvia surfaces honest "evidence" indicators about how strongly a file's status was verified; you should not treat the App as a substitute for your own backups.
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Laventis will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the App.
9. Termination
You may stop using the App and uninstall it at any time. We may suspend or terminate the App or these Terms where required by law or to protect the service or its users.
10. Changes
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be posted at this URL with an updated effective date; continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
11. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of China (Taiwan), without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. 〔法務確認管轄/準據法措辭 — legal to confirm jurisdiction / governing-law wording〕
