Clear terms for using SBlock.

SBlock and SBlock YouTube are operated by SBlock GmbH. These Terms and Conditions apply to sblock.ch, our browser extensions, support and issue-reporting features, donation features, and related services together referred to as the Services.

By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

Our Privacy Policy separately explains how information is handled.

You may use the Services only if you can legally agree to these Terms. If you are below the age of legal majority where you live, a parent or legal guardian must review and accept these Terms for you.

If you use the Services for a company or another organization, you confirm that you have authority to accept these Terms on its behalf.

Subject to these Terms, SBlock GmbH grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable right to install and use the extensions and access the website for lawful purposes.

This license does not transfer ownership of the extensions, website, branding, or other materials. Your use may also be subject to the rules of the browser or extension store through which an extension is distributed.

You must not use the Services to violate the law, infringe another person’s rights, distribute malicious code, interfere with the Services, bypass security controls, overload our systems, submit false or abusive reports, or attempt unauthorized access.

You must not copy, modify, sell, sublicense, or reverse engineer the Services except where applicable law or an applicable open-source license expressly permits it.

Ad and tracker blocking requires the extensions to inspect webpage content and network requests so they can identify and block unwanted elements. Some features require access to the websites on which you enable them.

You control whether to install, enable, pause, configure, or uninstall an extension. Details about local settings, support information, and other data handling are provided in our Privacy Policy.

The extensions may be updated automatically through the Chrome Web Store or another authorized distribution channel. Updates may add, change, or remove features where needed for security, compatibility, maintenance, or product improvement.

Browsers, websites, advertising systems, and services such as YouTube change frequently. We do not guarantee that every ad, tracker, popup, or unwanted element will always be blocked, or that every website will remain fully compatible. You can pause protection or report a problem when a page does not work as expected.

The Services may interact with or link to third-party products and platforms, including Google Chrome, the Chrome Web Store, YouTube, Shopify, PayPal, and external websites.

Those services are operated under their own terms and policies. SBlock GmbH does not control and is not responsible for third-party content, availability, security, or practices.

Donations are voluntary, one-time contributions processed by PayPal. They are not subscriptions and do not purchase ownership, guaranteed features, priority treatment, or a commercial license.

If you choose to publish a donor name or message, it may appear on the public donor wall. Do not submit content that is unlawful, abusive, misleading, or infringes another person’s rights.

Except where required by law or where a payment was made in error, donations are generally non-refundable. Contact support@sblock.ch promptly if there is a payment problem.

The Services, including their software, design, text, graphics, logos, and branding, are owned by or licensed to SBlock GmbH and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

If you voluntarily send feedback, suggestions, or ideas, you allow us to use them to operate and improve the Services without an obligation to compensate you. This does not give us ownership of your personal information or material that belongs to you.

We may maintain, update, limit, suspend, or discontinue all or part of the Services when reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, compatibility, abuse prevention, or product operation.

We may restrict access when these Terms are violated or when use creates risk for SBlock, our users, or third parties. You may stop using the Services and uninstall the extensions at any time.

The Services are provided on an “as available” basis. To the extent permitted by law, we do not make warranties that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, compatible with every website, or able to block every unwanted item.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, SBlock GmbH is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss arising from use of or inability to use the Services.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

These Terms are governed by the laws of Switzerland, without limiting any mandatory protections that apply to you under the law where you live. Please contact us first so we can try to resolve any concern informally.

We may update these Terms when the Services, legal requirements, or business practices change. The latest version will appear on this page with an updated date. If one provision cannot be enforced, the remaining provisions will continue to apply.

Questions about these Terms can be sent to support@sblock.ch.
