Terms of Use

Last updated: 7 July 2026

Please read these Terms of Use ("Terms") carefully before downloading, installing, or using the Files to Notion application, the website files2notion.com, and any related services (together, the "Service"). By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not download, install, or use the Service.

1. About the Service

Files to Notion ("we", "us", "our") is an independent desktop application for macOS and Windows that lets you mirror your local files as entries in a Notion database. The application synchronizes only file metadata (such as file name, extension, size, MIME type, media duration, absolute file path, and parent directory path) to a Notion workspace you control. The contents of your files are not uploaded to Notion, to us, or to any third-party cloud service. The application also provides a "Reveal in Finder" feature that opens local files from Notion by running a local HTTP server on your own computer.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, and able to enter into a binding contract to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

3. Licenses and Plans

3.1 Basic Plan. The Basic Plan is provided free of charge and includes the features described on our website (for example, synchronization of one directory and up to 100 files, and opening files from Notion).

3.2 Extended Plan. The Extended Plan is available for a one-time payment (as stated on our website at the time of purchase) and unlocks additional features, including unlimited directories, unlimited files, sub-directory synchronization, faster synchronization, file filtering, custom file-opening strategies, Shared Team Directories, and a two-device license.

3.3 License grant. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the application on the number of devices permitted by your plan (one device for the Basic Plan; up to two devices for the Extended Plan). The Service is licensed, not sold, to you.

3.4 Restrictions. You may not, and may not permit others to:

  • resell, sublicense, rent, lease, or redistribute the Service or license keys;
  • copy, modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Service, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
  • remove or alter any proprietary notices;
  • circumvent license limits, plan restrictions, or any technical protection measures; or
  • use the Service in a manner that infringes any third party's rights or violates any law.

4. Your Notion Integration and Responsibilities

To synchronize with Notion, you must create and configure your own Notion integration and provide the resulting integration secret to the application. You are solely responsible for creating, securing, and managing this integration and any associated credentials. Your integration secret is stored locally within the application's configuration on your device and is not transmitted to us. You are responsible for all activity performed through your integration and your Notion workspace.

You are responsible for the files, directories, and data you choose to synchronize, and for ensuring you have the right to synchronize and share them (including any team or shared-drive files). You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes.

5. Local Server and Network Access

The "Reveal in Finder" feature runs a local HTTP server on your computer (for example, at http://localhost:3069) to enable opening local files from Notion. This server is accessible only on your own machine unless you deliberately expose it. Your operating system may prompt you to allow incoming network connections; the Service relies on this permission to function. You are responsible for your device's security configuration.

6. Payments, Refunds, and Taxes

6.1 Payment. Paid plans are charged as a one-time payment through our third-party payment processor at the price shown at checkout. You agree to provide accurate payment information and authorize the charge.

6.2 Money-back guarantee. The Extended Plan includes a 30-day money-back guarantee. If we are unable to resolve your problem, contact us within 30 days of purchase at [email protected] and we will issue a full refund. Except as required by applicable law or expressly stated here, payments are otherwise non-refundable.

6.3 Taxes. Prices may be exclusive of applicable taxes, which may be added at checkout and are your responsibility where required.

7. Updates and Availability

We may release updates, new versions, or changes to the Service from time to time, and may add, modify, or discontinue features. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or compatible with future versions of Notion, your operating system, or third-party services. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the updated Service.

8. Privacy and Data

We do not upload the contents of your files. Only file metadata is synchronized to the Notion workspace you control. For the purpose of resolving support issues, limited metadata may be temporarily logged and is deleted within 48 hours. Your handling of data within your own Notion workspace is governed by Notion's own terms and policies. Please review any privacy notice we make available for further details.

9. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, text, graphics, and all related intellectual property, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by applicable laws. Except for the limited license expressly granted in these Terms, no rights are granted to you. All trademarks, including "Notion," are the property of their respective owners.

10. Third-Party Services

The Service interoperates with third-party services, including Notion and, where applicable, file storage providers such as Dropbox or Google Drive. We are not responsible for third-party services, their availability, or their terms. Your use of those services is governed by their respective agreements.

11. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, BE SECURE, OR OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OR ERROR. YOU USE THE SERVICE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

12. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY, OR, IF YOU USE THE BASIC PLAN, ZERO. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of a third party.

14. Termination

These Terms remain in effect while you use the Service. We may suspend or terminate your license if you breach these Terms. Upon termination, you must stop using the Service and delete all copies of the application. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification) will survive.

15. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date above indicates when the latest changes were made. Material changes will be reflected on our website. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

16. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable at our principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence apply.
