Terms for Using DiskSifter

These terms govern use of the DiskSifter website and its educational resources. By using the site, you agree to use it lawfully and take responsibility for decisions involving your own files and devices.

Last updated: October 17, 2026

Website purpose

DiskSifter provides general educational information about understanding Windows storage and organizing files. It is not disk-analysis software, a remote support tool, an official Windows utility, or a substitute for advice tailored to a particular technical, legal, or business situation.

Educational nature of content

Guides, diagrams, examples, and responses to enquiries are intended to improve understanding. Example data is illustrative. Content does not guarantee a particular result, amount of recovered storage, device performance, or suitability of an action for your circumstances.

Permitted use

You may access and use the website for personal, lawful educational purposes. You may not interfere with site operation, bypass security measures, submit malicious or deceptive content, misuse the contact form, impersonate another person, or reproduce substantial site content for commercial redistribution without permission.

Intellectual property

Original text, diagrams, visual design, and branding on the website are owned by or licensed for DiskSifter and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. Product and platform names belonging to others remain the property of their respective owners. Limited personal use does not transfer ownership.

Accuracy and limitations

Reasonable care is taken to use accurate Windows terminology and useful methods, but operating-system interfaces and behavior can change. Information may contain errors or become outdated. Confirm important steps against current Windows information and the requirements of your device, applications, organization, or backup system.

Your file-management responsibility

You are responsible for inspecting paths, understanding file purpose, maintaining usable backups, and deciding whether to move, rename, or remove anything. Modifying or removing files can cause data loss, application failure, synchronization changes, or loss of access. Do not change unfamiliar system or application files solely because they are large.

Educational enquiries

You may submit a genuine enquiry using the contact page. Do not send sensitive credentials or unlawful material. Submission does not create a professional-client relationship, support obligation, account, booking, paid engagement, or confirmed appointment. A response is not guaranteed.

Website availability and changes

Content, features, and availability may be corrected, revised, suspended, or discontinued. Links and instructions may be updated as Windows changes. Material revisions to these terms will be reflected by the published update date.

Contact

Questions about these terms may be submitted through the Contact page. Sending a question does not create a booking, support obligation, or professional-client relationship.
