Terms of Service

Last updated: 25 September 2026

1. What this is

Hermes Backups is a private automation tool that runs on its owner's own computer and connects to its owner's own Google account. It is provided for the personal use of that single individual. It is not offered as a service to the public, and no other person is granted access to it.

2. Acceptable use

The application may be used only with a Google account that the user is authorised to access, and only to access that user's own data. It must not be used to access data belonging to anyone else, to circumvent Google's terms, or for any unlawful purpose.

3. Your responsibility

The user is responsible for the security of the computer on which the application and its stored credentials reside, and for revoking access if that computer is lost, compromised or retired. Instructions for revoking access are in the Privacy Policy.

4. No warranty

The application is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. Backups and other outputs are provided as a convenience and are not a guarantee of data recovery; the user should maintain independent backups of anything important.

5. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the author of the application shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or any loss of data, arising out of or relating to the use of the application.

6. Changes

These terms may be updated at any time; the current version will always be published on this page with its "last updated" date.
