Terms of Service

These terms are the agreement between you and us about your use of Linkcroft. They are written to be read, not to be survived. Where a sentence has to be precise, it is precise; everywhere else it is in plain English.

If something here is unclear, write to info@linkcroft.com and ask. We would rather explain a clause than argue about it later.

1. Who we are, and what this covers

Linkcroft is a trade name of Total Management Control, a sole proprietorship under Dutch law, registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under 09109749, with its business address at Appeldijk 24, 4161 BH Heukelum, The Netherlands. In these terms, “Linkcroft”, “we” and “us” mean that company. “You” means the person using the service.

These terms cover everything called Linkcroft: the website at linkcroft.com, the app at app.linkcroft.com, the browser extension, and the mobile apps we are building.

Our Privacy Policy is part of this agreement. It explains what we do with your personal data. Where these terms and the Privacy Policy say different things about personal data, the Privacy Policy wins.

You agree to these terms when you create an account.

2. What Linkcroft is

Linkcroft is a bookmark manager. You save links; we turn them into cards with the details that matter — a price, an address, a date — and let you arrange them on pages and find them again.

To do that, our servers usually open the page behind a link you save, read what is on it, and pass a slice of that text to an AI model that pulls out the details. Not always: there are whole categories of page we refuse to read, and addresses we refuse to open at all. Clause 7 says which, and the Privacy Policy describes it in full.

What Linkcroft is not. It is not a backup service, an archive or a vault. We store the address of a page, not the page. If the page changes or disappears, your card will show what we found when we last looked, and the link will stop working. Keep your own copy of anything you cannot afford to lose.

It is not a password manager. Do not use Linkcroft to store passwords, API keys, recovery codes or other credentials. There is a section about this in clause 6.

3. Your account

You need to be 16 or over to use Linkcroft. That is not a judgement about younger readers: European privacy law says a child under 16 cannot agree to this on their own, and we have deliberately not built the parental-consent machinery that would require.

Your account is yours. Keep your password to yourself, and pick one you do not use anywhere else. Tell us at info@linkcroft.com if you think someone else has got into your account.

Give us an email address that works. It is the only way we can reach you, and it is the only way you can get back in if you forget your password.

Anything done from your account counts as done by you, unless it is clear that someone else got in through no fault of yours.

4. What it costs

Linkcroft is free while we are building it. Today there is one plan and it costs nothing. There is no trial that quietly turns into a subscription, and we do not ask for card details.

Paid plans will come. When they do:

• We will tell you at least 30 days in advance, by email and in the app, what the plans are and what they cost.
• Nothing you have already saved will be taken away or locked behind a paywall without that notice. If a limit ever applies to your account, you will be able to read, search, export and delete everything you have, whatever plan you are on.
• Nobody is charged without choosing a paid plan themselves.
• If you do not want a paid plan, you can keep using whatever free plan exists, or export your links and close your account.

If you are ever on a paid plan:

• We tell you before each renewal what it costs. A price change takes effect only at the next renewal, never during a period you have already paid for, and never with less than 30 days’ notice.
• No subscription renews itself without you. If we ever introduce automatic renewal, we will ask you to switch it on, tell you before each charge, and let you turn it off in one place.
• As a consumer in the EU you have a 14-day right of withdrawal on a new paid subscription. We will set that out on the order screen when there is something to order, and refund within 14 days of you exercising it.

5. What you may use Linkcroft for

Use it for whatever you like, within the law. What you may not do:

• Break the law with it, or store or spread content that is illegal in the Netherlands or in the European Union.
• Use someone else’s account, or let someone else use yours, or create an account under a false identity.
• Attack or overload the service — probing for weaknesses, getting around our rate limits, scraping the app, or running automated traffic that is not a normal person saving links. We publish a security.txt; if you find a weakness, tell us there instead.
• Take the service apart to rebuild it — reverse engineering, copying the app, or reselling access to it.
• Use it to harass, threaten or endanger anyone.
• Store content that infringes someone else’s rights without permission.

A collection of links attracts a particular kind of misuse, so to be specific: do not use Linkcroft as a store or a staging ground for pirated material, phishing or scam pages, counterfeit goods, the illegal sale of drugs or weapons, or malware. And do not use it as a link farm — a collection built to push search rankings or traffic somewhere rather than to be read by you.

If you find a security problem, report it responsibly and we will thank you for it. We will not come after anyone who reports a weakness in good faith and gives us a reasonable chance to fix it before telling the world.

6. What you save is yours

Everything you put into Linkcroft stays yours. Your links, your notes, your tags, your pages — we claim no ownership of any of it, and we do not take a licence to do anything with it beyond running the service for you.

To run the service we need permission to store your content, display it back to you, index it so you can search it, and pass it through the steps described in clause 2 and in the Privacy Policy. That permission is limited to those purposes, it lasts only as long as you keep the content in your account, and it ends when you delete it. We do not use your content to advertise to you, we do not sell it, and we do not train AI models on it.

You are responsible for what you save, and for being allowed to save it. That includes links that give access to a file, a folder or a document belonging to someone else — a “share link” from SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer, Notion or Figma, or any address with a token or key in it. Whoever holds such an address can open what is behind it, without signing in. When you save one, we say so once and let you choose: keep the key, so the link keeps working, or save the address without it. Where the key is part of the address itself, there is nothing to strip and we tell you that instead.

Our servers never open a link like that, and never fetch the file behind it. We store the address you gave us, and nothing more. But the address is in your account, so anyone who gets into your account can use it — which is why we ask you to choose, and why we ask you not to store credentials here.

Not a password manager. Linkcroft is not built to hold secrets and is not certified to. Do not store passwords, API keys, recovery codes, or documents you would not want a Linkcroft employee to be able to reach in the course of fixing a problem. We do not go looking, but we cannot promise nobody ever could.

Feedback. If you send us an idea for Linkcroft, we may act on it without owing you anything. That is all we take: a suggestion is not your content, and this does not touch anything you have saved.

7. What we do with the pages you save

The full account is in the Privacy Policy. In short:

• We only read a page when you save it. The extension does not watch you browse.
• Some pages we never read at all. Online banking, webmail, government portals, social networks and Microsoft 365 are on a blocklist, and so are the sign-in, account and checkout pages of any other site. There the link is saved and the contents are not.
• Our servers only open what a browser can open without consequences. An address that would do something by being opened — confirm, unsubscribe, accept, pay, reset a password — is never fetched by us, and neither is an address that carries an access key.
• Details on your cards are produced by an AI model, and AI models get things wrong. A price, a date, a size or a description on a card is our best reading of someone else’s page, not a fact we stand behind. Check the original before you act on it — particularly before you spend money. You can correct any field yourself, and the correction sticks.

8. Availability, and what we do and do not promise

We want Linkcroft to be up and working, and we run it as carefully as we can. We do not promise it will never be unavailable, never lose a beat, or work perfectly with every website in the world. Websites change, and a card that filled in yesterday may not fill in tomorrow.

There is no uptime guarantee on the free plan. If we ever sell a plan with one, it will say so.

Nothing in this clause takes away the guarantee that Dutch and European law gives you as a consumer: that a digital service conforms to what was agreed. If it does not, you keep the rights the law gives you, including having it put right and, where the law provides for it, a price reduction or termination.

9. When we may change, suspend or close things

We may change the service. Features get added, altered and sometimes removed. If a change takes away something you are using, or makes the service materially worse for you, we will tell you at least 30 days beforehand by email and in the app, and you may close your account and take your data before it takes effect. Small changes, new features and security fixes happen without notice.

We may stop offering Linkcroft altogether. If we do:

• You get at least 90 days’ notice, by email and in the app.
• You get a way to export everything you have, in a format that other bookmark managers can import — not a dump only we can read.
• We refund the unused part of anything you have paid.

We put this in writing because the service that ran before us did not. Pocket closed in July 2025 and neither its terms nor its privacy policy said a word about what would happen to what people had saved there.

We may suspend or close an account. These are the grounds — this is the list clause 14 of the Digital Services Act requires us to publish, and we will not act outside it:

Whenever we restrict, suspend or close an account, we tell you what we did, why, which rule it rests on, whether a report or our own checks triggered it, and how to contest it — unless the law forbids us to. How to contest it is on the report page; it is the same route as for any other decision we make about content.

Before we delete anything because of a closure that is not your doing, you get at least 30 days to export your data.

10. Ending this agreement

You can leave whenever you want. Open the app, go to your account page, and delete your account. It happens on the spot: your links, notes, tags, pages, device keys and sign-in details go with it. You do not need our permission and you do not have to ask. If you would rather we did it for you, write to info@linkcroft.com and we will.

Deleting a single link removes it from your account immediately as well.

When the agreement ends, your right to use Linkcroft ends with it. Clauses 6 (what is yours stays yours), 11 (liability), 15 (governing law) and anything else that by its nature is meant to outlast it, carry on.

Export first. Deletion is immediate and we keep no shadow copy, so export anything you want to keep before you press the button.

11. Liability

This clause says who pays when something goes wrong. It is the one part of this document written in the language of the law, because a vague liability clause helps nobody.

What we never limit. Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for intent or conscious recklessness (opzet of bewuste roekeloosheid), for fraud, or for anything else that Dutch law does not allow to be limited. If you are a consumer, nothing here takes away your statutory rights.

What we do limit. Beyond that, and to the extent the law allows:

• Our total liability to you for everything arising out of or in connection with this agreement is capped at the greater of EUR 500 or the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event that caused the loss.
• We are not liable for loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of goodwill, or loss of business opportunity.
• We are not liable for loss of data where you could reasonably have kept your own copy. Linkcroft is not a backup service (clause 2), and the export function is there for this reason.
• We are not liable for what is on, or happens on, a website you saved a link to. Those sites are not ours and we do not control them.
• We are not liable for a decision you took on the strength of a detail an AI model put on a card. Clause 7 says why.

What you are responsible for. If someone brings a claim against us because of content you stored, because you used Linkcroft against clause 5, or because you saved something you had no right to save, you cover the reasonable costs that causes us. We will tell you promptly if such a claim arrives, let you take part in dealing with it, and not settle it without asking you. This does not apply to a consumer beyond what Dutch law allows.

12. Reporting illegal content, and complaints

If you think something stored on Linkcroft is illegal, tell us. The report page explains what to include and what we will do about it, within what time, and how to contest the outcome.

Copyright and other rights. If something stored here is yours and should not be, write to info@linkcroft.com with enough detail to identify the material and to show you own it or act for the owner. We will remove or block it where the complaint holds up. An account that keeps infringing after being told will be closed.

We do not run a DMCA procedure. That is United States law and it would give you fewer rights than the European route above, so we use the European one.

For anything else — a complaint about the service, about a decision we made, or about how we handled your data — write to info@linkcroft.com. A person reads every message. If you are not satisfied with our answer, you can take the matter to the court named in clause 15, and for data protection to the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).

13. Other things

These terms are personal to you. You may not transfer your account or your rights under this agreement to someone else without asking us. We may transfer this agreement if the business is sold or reorganised, and we will tell you before that happens; if you do not want your account to go with it, delete it.

If one clause turns out to be invalid, the rest still stands, and the invalid clause is read in the way that comes closest to what it was meant to do within the law.

Not enforcing something once does not mean we give up the right to enforce it later.

These terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the whole agreement between us about Linkcroft, and they replace anything said before.

Language. These terms are written in English. If we publish a translation and the two disagree, the English version governs — except where you are a consumer and the law of your own country says otherwise.

14. Changes to these terms

We will change these terms from time to time, because the service changes and the law changes.

• For any change that affects you, we will tell you at least 30 days in advance, by email and in the app, and say plainly what is changing.
• The change takes effect on the date we name. If you do not want it, delete your account before that date and the old terms apply until you go.
• Corrections that do not change anything of substance — a typo, a broken link, a clearer sentence with the same meaning — we make without notice, and the date at the top moves.
• Every previous version stays available. Ask us at info@linkcroft.com and we will send you the version that applied on any given day.

15. Which law applies, and which court

Dutch law applies to this agreement.

Disputes go to the competent court in the Netherlands — the court in the District Court of Gelderland (Rechtbank Gelderland) (the district of our business address).

If you are a consumer living in the European Union, none of this takes away your rights: you keep the protection of the mandatory law of the country you live in, and you may bring a claim in the courts of that country.

There is no arbitration clause in this agreement, and no class-action waiver. You keep your right to go to a real court, and to join a collective action.
