2. About Gouho
Gouho is a free online tools website that offers many useful tools for everyday digital tasks. These tools may include file tools, image tools, text tools, calculators, converters, and other online utilities.
Gouho is designed to make common digital tasks easier to complete directly from a browser. The website focuses on practical tools, clear pages, and simple access.
The main tools on Gouho can be used without creating an account. Users may optionally create a free account to access extra convenience features, such as saving tools to favorites for faster access.
3. Free Use and Optional Accounts
Gouho is free to use for everyday website and tool access. The website does not require payment to use its main tools.
Users do not need to create an account, register, subscribe, or pay to use the main tools. However, users may choose to create a free account for additional convenience features, such as saving favorite tools.
Optional account features are provided to make Gouho easier to use. They are not intended to block normal access to the main tools.
4. Account Responsibility
If you choose to create a free Gouho account, you are responsible for the information you provide and for keeping your login details secure.
You should not share your password or allow another person to access your account without permission. If you believe your account has been accessed without authorization, contact Gouho at contact@gouho.com.
Gouho may use account information to provide account-related features, such as saved favorites, account access, and other convenience functions. More information about account data is explained in the Privacy Policy.
5. Advertising Support
Gouho may use advertising to help support the free website. Advertising helps keep the tools available without requiring payment for everyday use.
Third-party advertising services may use cookies or similar technologies for ad delivery, ad measurement, invalid activity detection, and relevant or personalized advertising where applicable.
Gouho does not mention a specific advertising provider by name in these Terms. Advertising-related practices are explained in more detail in the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
6. Uploaded Files and Tool Processing
Some Gouho tools may require users to upload files so the selected tool action can be completed. By uploading a file, you ask Gouho to process that file for the tool action you selected.
Uploaded files are processed automatically to perform the selected tool action. Gouho does not manually review or read uploaded file contents during normal operation.
Temporary uploaded files are automatically deleted after about one hour. This helps keep file handling temporary and focused on completing the action requested by the user.
7. Generated Files and Results
Some tools may create generated files, output files, previews, processed results, calculated results, converted files, compressed files, edited files, or other downloadable results.
Generated and output files are automatically deleted after about one hour. Gouho is not a file storage service and should not be used as a long-term place to store uploaded files, processed files, generated files, or results.
Users are responsible for downloading or saving any results they want to keep before the temporary availability period ends.
8. User Responsibility for Files
You are responsible for the files you upload to Gouho. You should only upload files that you own, control, or have permission to process through an online tool.
You should not upload or process files if doing so would violate another person’s rights, confidentiality obligations, contractual duties, applicable laws, or any rules that apply to the file.
You should use extra care with confidential, highly sensitive, restricted, private, or business-critical documents. If a file is not appropriate for processing through an online tool, you should not upload it to Gouho.
9. Security, Unlocking, and Restricted Tools
Some tools may relate to file protection, unlocking, password handling, conversion, extraction, editing, or other sensitive actions. You should use these tools only on files you own, control, or have permission to process.
You must not use Gouho to bypass protections, access restrictions, passwords, or technical measures on files that you are not authorized to use.
If a tool helps protect, unlock, convert, extract, or modify a file, you remain responsible for making sure your use is lawful, authorized, and respectful of the rights of others.
10. Prohibited Use

Files uploaded by users remain the responsibility of the users who upload them. Gouho does not claim ownership of user-uploaded files simply because they are processed through a Gouho tool.
13. Tool Availability and Changes
Gouho may add, remove, update, modify, suspend, replace, or change tools, pages, account features, website sections, or technical systems from time to time.
Changes may be made for maintenance, reliability, security, performance, user experience, operational needs, legal compliance, or improvement of the website.
Gouho aims to keep tools useful and available, but it does not guarantee that every tool, feature, page, result, account function, or download will always be available without interruption.
14. Accuracy of Results
Gouho tools are intended to help users complete practical digital tasks. However, generated results, conversions, calculations, formatted text, file outputs, image outputs, or other tool results may not always be perfect, complete, or suitable for every purpose.
Users should review results before relying on them, especially when the result is important, sensitive, business-related, or used in a context where accuracy matters.
Gouho may improve tools over time, but users remain responsible for checking whether a result meets their needs.
15. Third-Party Services
Gouho may use third-party services for website operation, hosting, analytics, advertising, security, performance measurement, account-related features, and related technical purposes.
Third-party services may use their own technologies, policies, cookies, identifiers, or controls. For example, analytics services may help Gouho understand website usage, while advertising services may support ad delivery and ad measurement.
More information about analytics, advertising, cookies, and similar technologies is explained in the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
