Terms of Use
By using WorldClock you agree to these simple terms. We have tried to write them in plain language so there are no surprises.
Acceptance
By accessing or using WorldClock (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree with any part of the terms, please do not use the Service.
Description of Service
WorldClock is a free, browser-based utility that provides world clock displays, countdown timers, and alarms. The Service is offered as-is, without any warranty of accuracy, availability, or fitness for any particular purpose. While we strive to keep the clocks accurate and the site running smoothly, we cannot guarantee uptime or correctness.
Acceptable Use
You may use WorldClock for any lawful personal or commercial purpose. You agree not to:
- Attempt to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to the site or its underlying infrastructure.
- Use automated tools to scrape, harvest, or reproduce the site's content at scale.
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract proprietary components beyond what is permitted under applicable copyright law.
- Frame, embed, or republish the site in a way that misrepresents its origin or removes advertisements that fund it.
Not Suitable for Safety-Critical Use
Our timers and alarms are convenience tools. They depend on your browser remaining open, your device having sufficient power, and your system clock being accurate. Do not rely on WorldClock for time-sensitive tasks where failure could cause physical harm, financial loss, or medical consequences. Use a dedicated device (a physical alarm, your phone's native alarm app, a medication reminder system) for anything that matters.
Advertisements
The Service displays advertisements from Google AdSense and may in the future include other ad networks. Advertisements are how we fund the free service. We do not endorse any advertised product or service and are not responsible for the content of external advertisers.
Intellectual Property
The design, code, typography choices, and written content of WorldClock are the intellectual property of the site operators. You may take screenshots and link to the site freely. You may not copy substantial portions of the code or written content for use on other websites without explicit permission.
Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided "as-is" and "as-available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of accuracy, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operators of WorldClock shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to your use of the Service, including but not limited to missed appointments, missed medications, lost business opportunities, or any other time-related consequences.
Changes to the Service
We may add, remove, or modify features at any time without notice. We may also take the Service offline for maintenance, updates, or permanently without further obligation.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
Governing Law
These terms shall be interpreted under general principles of international web service use. Any disputes should be addressed directly with the site operators via the contact page before escalating through legal channels.
