Terms of Service

Last updated: November 13, 2026

VS (Compare Anything) is a free, browser-based comparison tool. By using it you agree to the terms below. If you do not agree, please stop using the site.

1. What the service does

The site lets you compare text, images, Word, Excel, PDF, PowerPoint and folders side by side. All parsing and comparison run locally in your browser; we do not receive, inspect, or store your files. See the Privacy Policy for the data details.

2. No warranty

The service is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind. Diff results are produced by third-party open-source parsers and rendering libraries; complex or malformed documents may be rendered imperfectly or not at all. Always verify important differences yourself before relying on them for legal, financial, or contractual decisions. We are not liable for any loss arising from the use of, or inability to use, the tool.

3. Your files, your responsibility

You keep all rights to the files you open. You are responsible for having the right to process them and for keeping your own backups. Because nothing is uploaded, a browser crash or clearing site data can remove local drafts and history, and we cannot restore them.

4. Acceptable use

Do not use the site to infringe others' rights, distribute malware, or attempt to disrupt or reverse-engineer the hosted service in a way that harms other users. Automated scraping that overloads the site is not permitted.

5. Availability and changes

Features may change, be added, or be removed without notice. We may suspend the site for maintenance or security reasons. All functionality is currently offered free of charge; if a paid edition is introduced later, these terms and the in-app notice will be updated first, and existing local data will not be held hostage.

6. Paid edition and refunds

A paid edition (Pro) may be introduced later. Purchases are processed by our payment partner acting as merchant of record: it takes the payment, issues the invoice, handles sales tax and processes any refund. Your card or bank statement shows the partner's name, not ours. The policy below applies to purchases made on this site.

  • Not activated within 14 days: full refund. If you bought a licence code and have not activated it, email us within 14 days of the purchase date and we will refund it in full, no questions asked.
  • Activated licences are final. A licence code is delivered instantly and cannot be returned once used. If the paid features do not work as described, contact us first — we will try to fix it, and may refund at our discretion if we cannot.
  • Faulty or duplicate charges: always refunded. Charged twice, charged without receiving a code, or a code that never activates — full refund, including the payment fees you were charged.
  • Your statutory rights are unaffected. Nothing here removes mandatory consumer rights in your country, including the EU/UK/EEA right of withdrawal. Where the law gives you 14 days to withdraw, that right ends when you activate the code and thereby request immediate performance — so if you are unsure, do not activate before deciding.
  • How to request. Email [email protected] with the order or receipt number. Refunds are returned to the original payment method, normally within 5–10 business days.

A refund ends the licence it was paid for. It never affects the free features, and we will never require you to delete local drafts or history in order to get a refund.

7. Third-party components

The tool bundles open-source libraries (including Monaco Editor, pdf.js, and others) under their respective licenses. Their notices accompany the distributed code where required.

8. Governing law and contact

VS — Compare Anything is operated by Yuhu Chen, an individual established in Xuzhou, Jiangsu, China. This person is the operator of the site and the data controller for the purposes of the Privacy Policy.

These terms are governed by the laws applicable at the operator's place of establishment, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence. Questions can be sent to [email protected].
