Version 1.0. Last updated: 11 November 2026.

This website and web app, Podcast Filler Word Cleaner (the "Site"), is owned and operated by DawnForge Studio, Malaysia ("Company," "us," "our," or "we"). Certain features of the Site may be subject to additional guidelines or rules posted on the Site, which are incorporated by reference into these Terms.

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your use of the Site. By accessing or using the Site you agree to these Terms on behalf of yourself or the entity you represent, and you confirm that you have the authority to do so.

1. Access to the Site

1.1 License. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Site for your own audio editing, including work on your own podcast.

1.2 Your content. The audio, transcripts and project files you open stay on your device and are processed in your browser; we do not receive them. You keep all rights in them. You are responsible for having the right to edit the audio you use and for checking every edit and exported file before you publish. The Site is a free tool during validation, and its suggestions (including the experimental “possible ums” finder, which is a heuristic guess) can be wrong or miss things. Nothing is cut until you approve it.

1.3 Restrictions. You may not: (i) license, sell, rent, lease, transfer, assign, distribute, or commercially exploit the Site itself; (ii) modify, create derivative works from, disassemble, reverse-compile, or reverse-engineer any part of the Site, except as the law allows despite this restriction; (iii) access the Site in order to build a similar or competing product or service; or (iv) copy, reproduce, distribute, republish or transmit any part of the Site except as expressly permitted by these Terms. All copyright and proprietary notices on the Site must be kept intact on any copies you are permitted to make.

If you share feedback or suggestions about the Site with us, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free license to use that feedback freely, in any manner and for any purpose, without attribution. Please do not submit any feedback that you consider proprietary or confidential.

2. Privacy

Your use of the Site is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. It describes what the Site keeps on your device and what we do not collect.

We may assume control of the defense of any such claim at your expense, and you agree to cooperate with our defense. You agree not to settle any such claim without our prior written consent. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you promptly of any claim we become aware of.

4. Third-party services

WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR HARMFUL CODE, OR THAT ITS SUGGESTIONS OR EXPORTED FILES WILL BE CORRECT. YOUR BROWSER’S LOCAL STORAGE CAN BE CLEARED AT ANY TIME, SO KEEP YOUR OWN COPIES OF YOUR AUDIO AND EXPORTS. WHERE APPLICABLE LAW REQUIRES WARRANTIES, THEY ARE LIMITED TO 90 DAYS FROM YOUR FIRST USE.

6. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (A) COMPANY AND ITS SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, COSTS OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS, OR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SITE; AND (B) OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING UNDER THESE TERMS IS CAPPED AT THE GREATER OF (i) US$50 AND (ii) THE AMOUNT PAID TO COMPANY BY YOU UNDER THESE TERMS IN THE SIX MONTHS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. THE EXISTENCE OF MULTIPLE CLAIMS DOES NOT INCREASE THIS CAP. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including rights you have as a consumer under Malaysian law.

8.2 Governing law. These Terms and any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Site are governed by the laws of Malaysia, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. You and Company submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Malaysia, except that either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights.
