1. Introduction

Welcome to Morespace ("we," "our," or "us"). These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the Morespace application and services (the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

Essential Understanding: Morespace is a pass-through service. We do NOT store your cloud storage files. We temporarily process data to help you manage duplicates and backups, then immediately discard it.

2. Description of Service

Morespace is a cloud file management application that allows users to:

• Identify and manage duplicate files across cloud storage providers
• Backup files securely across multiple cloud services
• Analyze storage usage patterns
• Organize and deduplicate photos and documents
• Securely revoke app permissions from your cloud providers

Our service integrates with cloud storage providers including Google Drive, Google Photos, Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox, IDrive, and S3-compatible storage. We use OAuth 2.0 authentication to request secure, limited access to your cloud accounts.

3. User Accounts

To use certain features of the Service, you must register for an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current, and complete.

You are responsible for:

• Safeguarding your account password and login credentials
• All activities that occur under your account
• Promptly notifying us of unauthorized access
• Reviewing our Privacy Policy to understand data handling

You must not use another person's account without permission, and you may not share your login credentials with others.

4. Cloud Provider Authorization & OAuth Scope Permissions

4.1 Understanding OAuth Scopes

When you connect your cloud provider accounts to Morespace, we request specific OAuth scopes (permissions) to perform our service. Understanding these is important:

4.2 Your Scope Decisions Are Yours

• You consent to each scope individually during OAuth authentication
• You can withhold consent for any scope; the service will work with remaining scopes
• You can revoke any scope from your cloud provider's security settings independently
• You understand each scope grants specific access to your cloud account

4.3 Scope Data Minimization Commitment

Morespace commits to:

• ✓ Using only scopes necessary for stated features
• ✓ Requesting no scope beyond our documented API usage
• ✓ Deleting temporary data immediately after processing
• ✓ Never sharing scope access with third parties
• ✓ Auditing scope usage quarterly for compliance
• ✗ NOT selling your authorized scope access
• ✗ NOT using scope for marketing or profiling
• ✗ NOT requesting additional scopes without notification

5. Acceptable Use Policy

• Use the Service for any commercial purposes without written consent
• Circumvent or attempt to bypass security measures or authentication

• Use the Service to violate cloud provider terms of service
• Share your account credentials with others or allow unauthorized access
• Abuse rate limits or consume excessive service resources
