Terms of service

Version of 10 November 2026.

1. Who we are

PDF1729 is operated by Studio 1729. Contact: amaury@1729.studio. The service is hosted by OVHcloud in the European Union.

2. The service

PDF1729 converts HTML you send, or public URLs you designate, into PDF files through an API, within the quotas and technical limits published in the documentation. The service is offered to businesses and professionals only, not to consumers. By creating an account you confirm that you act for professional purposes.

3. Your account and API keys

You need a valid email address. API keys are shown once and stored only as hashes. You are responsible for keeping them secret and for all use made with them. Tell us promptly if a key is exposed, and revoke it from your account.

4. Acceptable use

You must have the right to submit the content you send and permission to access the resources you ask us to fetch. You must not use the service to reach systems you are not authorised to access, to probe or attack networks, to bypass the published limits, to distribute malware, or to process unlawful content. We may refuse a request, or suspend an account, where we reasonably believe these rules are broken or the service is at risk. We will tell you why unless the law prevents it.

5. Plans, prices and payment

The Free plan costs nothing. Paid plans are billed monthly in advance in euros through Stripe, at the price shown on the pricing table when you subscribe. VAT is not applicable (TVA non applicable, art. 293 B du CGI). Each plan includes a number of successful PDFs per calendar month (UTC). Unused quota does not carry over. There is no automatic overage: when the quota is reached, further requests are refused until the next month or until you change plan. Failed renders are not counted.

We may change prices for future billing periods with at least 30 days' notice by email. If you do not agree, you can cancel before the change applies.

6. Cancellation and refunds

You can cancel at any time from the customer portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the paid period, and the account then returns to the Free plan. Payments are not refunded pro rata. If you ask within 14 days of your first payment and have not used more than the Free plan's quota in that period, we refund that payment in full.

7. Availability and changes

We aim to keep the service available but give no uptime commitment, and none during the beta. We may change or remove features with reasonable notice, and may stop the service with at least 30 days' notice, refunding any period paid for and not provided.

8. Your content and data protection

Your documents remain yours. We do not keep the HTML you send, the URLs you designate or the PDFs we return after the request ends; see the privacy notice. Where your documents contain personal data, you are the controller and we act as your processor, only to produce the PDF. A data processing agreement is available on request.

9. Liability

The service is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim connected with the service is limited to the amounts you paid us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, and we are not liable for indirect loss, loss of profit, or loss of data. Nothing here limits liability for wilful misconduct, gross negligence, or anything that cannot be limited by law.

10. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by French law. If a dispute cannot be settled amicably, the courts of Nanterre, France, have jurisdiction.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We will notify account holders by email at least 30 days before a material change applies.
