Terms & Conditions

Terms and conditions for using the Reduz browser extension and website.

Last updated September 18, 2026

Please read these Terms & Conditions ("Terms") carefully before using the Reduz browser extension and the reduz.app website (together, the "Service"), operated by Three Things Media ("we", "us", "our"). By using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

Interpretation and Definitions

Definitions

  • Extension — the Reduz Chrome browser extension.
  • Website — the Reduz marketing site at reduz.app.
  • Service — the Extension and Website collectively.
  • You — the individual using the Service.
  • AI Provider — a third-party API service (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, or xAI).
  • API Key — a credential you obtain from an AI Provider to authenticate requests.

Use of the Service

Reduz is a browser extension and website that summarizes web pages, YouTube videos, PDF documents, and selected text using AI providers. You supply an API key from a supported provider. Requests go directly from the extension to that provider, and history is saved locally. The Website provides product information.

Your API Keys and Provider Terms

You are responsible for obtaining and securing your API keys and paying any provider API charges. By using the Service with a third-party AI provider, you agree to comply with that provider's terms of service:

We are not responsible for any costs, charges, or consequences arising from your use of third-party API services. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any AI provider.

Content Limitations

The Extension enforces the following limits:

  • Page text: up to 60,000 characters per summary.
  • Selected text: up to 60,000 characters per summary.
  • PDF files: up to 25 MB.

Provider costs and local data

The current extension has no Reduz subscription or credit allowance. Provider prices, balance requirements, and rate limits apply to your requests. Local history is tied to your extension installation and browser profile. Export it before uninstalling or clearing browser data; automatic synchronization is not provided.

Intellectual Property

The Service, including its design, code, and branding, is the property of Three Things Media. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse-engineer the Extension or Website without prior written permission.

Summaries generated by the Extension are produced by third-party AI providers. Ownership and usage rights for generated content are governed by the respective AI provider's terms of service.

Prohibited Uses

You agree not to use the Service to:

  • Violate any applicable law or regulation.
  • Infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others.
  • Circumvent content paywalls or access restricted content.
  • Distribute malware or interfere with the Extension's operation.
  • Resell, sublicense, or redistribute the Service or its output.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Three Things Media be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, or any loss of data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from:

  • Your use of or inability to use the Service.
  • Any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in AI-generated summaries.
  • Unauthorized access to or alteration of your data.
  • Costs or charges incurred with third-party AI providers.
  • Any third-party conduct or content.

"AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" Disclaimer

The Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Three Things Media from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses arising from your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights.

Termination

We may terminate or suspend your access to the Service at any time, without prior notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users or us. You may stop using the Service at any time by uninstalling the Extension.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Germany (Bayern). Any disputes arising under these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ingolstadt, Germany.

Dispute Resolution

If you have a concern or dispute, please contact us first at support@reduz.app. We will try to resolve the matter informally before any formal proceedings.

The European Commission provides an online dispute resolution platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are not obligated to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board, but may choose to do so.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable or invalid, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. For material changes, we will provide at least 30 days' notice by updating the "Last updated" date on this page. Your continued use of the Service after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
