4. Your Content

You retain full ownership of all files you upload to GoFile ("Your Content"). By uploading content, you grant GoFile a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to store, reproduce, and transmit Your Content solely to provide the Service.

We do not sell, rent, or share Your Content with third parties except as required by law or as necessary to operate the Service (e.g., content delivery networks). We do not analyze the content of your files for advertising purposes.

You are solely responsible for Your Content and the consequences of uploading and sharing it. GoFile acts as a passive conduit and does not monitor uploaded files prior to storage.

File retention depends on your account type:

GoFile does not guarantee any specific storage duration. We reserve the right to delete content at any time if it violates these Terms or poses legal or operational risk. Deleted files cannot be recovered.

6. Premium Services

GoFile offers optional paid plans ("Premium"). By subscribing, you agree to pay the applicable fees. All fees are non-refundable except as required by applicable consumer law. Premium subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled before the renewal date.

We reserve the right to change pricing with 30 days' notice. Continued use of Premium after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.

7. DMCA & Copyright

8. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any reason including breach of these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately and we may delete your files and account data.

You may delete your account at any time through your account settings. Deletion requests are processed within 30 days.

9. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. GOFILE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
