1. Independent Software Project

Z-BUDDY is an independent software project.

It is provided as free software and public information. Z-BUDDY is not a managed cloud service, paid support product, enterprise service, or continuous customer support platform.

The website and software may be updated, changed, suspended, or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

2. Free Software

Z-BUDDY may be provided as free software.

Free software does not mean that operation, compatibility, maintenance, support, updates, or continued availability are guaranteed.

We do not guarantee that Z-BUDDY will work on all devices, operating systems, browsers, network environments, or user configurations.

Z-BUDDY is provided as free software, not as a paid support service.

We do not guarantee individual support, technical assistance, troubleshooting, setup assistance, compatibility fixes, updates, maintenance, or responses to all inquiries.

The contact form on this website is provided mainly for important notices, privacy-related inquiries, legal inquiries, security concerns, or significant issue reports.

Submitting an inquiry does not guarantee a response.

Users are encouraged to use publicly available information, official website content, search engines, AI assistants, community discussions, and other public resources to learn how to install, configure, and use Z-BUDDY.

4. External AI Services and Third-Party Websites

Z-BUDDY may display, connect to, or interact with third-party websites, AI services, tools, platforms, or online services depending on user operation.

These third-party services are operated by their respective providers. Z-BUDDY does not own, control, operate, endorse, or represent those third-party services unless explicitly stated.

Users are responsible for reviewing and complying with the terms of service, privacy policies, usage rules, account requirements, and restrictions of any third-party services they choose to access or use.
