Terms

Last updated 12 November 2026

Short, because the tool is short: you bring bytes, you take a digest back.

Your input stays yours

The text, the key and the file belong to you. We claim no licence, no ownership and no right to reuse them. Since they never reach us, there would be nothing to claim anyway.

Check the result before you rely on it

The digests follow published standards, but a checksum is only as good as the file it was taken from. If the download was truncated, the digest will faithfully describe the truncated file. Compare it with the value the sender published, and read the label under each result before you quote it.

No security guarantee

This is a utility, not an audit. MD5 and SHA-1 are offered for compatibility with old checksums and are not safe against a deliberate collision. Reading a token is not authentication, and the signature is not verified. Do not use this page as the only check before running an untrusted binary.

Service as it is

The tool is free and provided as it is, without a service level. We may change it, move it or stop it. Because everything runs in your browser, an outage never takes your data with it, and nothing you already copied stops working.

Fair use

Use it for as many files as you like, including paid work. Do not use it to build something unlawful or to misrepresent who produced a file.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect loss or lost profit arising from use of the tool. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Changes to these terms

If these terms change, the date at the top changes. Continuing to use the site after that means the new version applies.
