Disclaimer
Last updated: September 2026
Summary of Key Disclaimers
- Client-Side Execution: All document and data modifications take place locally on your personal device using in-memory WebAssembly. We do not store, view, or retain copies of your files.
- No Official Government Affiliation: LocalDoc is an independent productivity suite and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any government agency, embassy, or passport authority.
- Informational & Educational Use: All calculations, conversions, and biometric crop guidelines are provided for general reference without warranty of absolute accuracy.
1. General Information & As-Is Service
The information and software tools provided on LocalDoc (localdoc.org) are offered for general informational and personal productivity purposes only. All tools, algorithms, and documentation are provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis without representations or warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.
2. Document Integrity & Data Backup Responsibility
LocalDoc operates entirely in your browser's private memory (RAM). Files are never transmitted to or backed up on any remote server. Consequently:
- Users are solely responsible for maintaining original, unmodified backup copies of all files prior to using compression, deletion, organization, or conversion tools.
- LocalDoc and its creators cannot restore, recover, or retrieve lost or corrupted files resulting from browser crashes, power interruptions, or system memory exhaustion during file processing.
3. Visa, Passport & Identification Photo Guidelines
LocalDoc provides biometric cropping and resizing tools (including Passport Photo Maker, Visa Photo Maker, and ID Photo Maker) calibrated to widely published international standards (such as US Department of State 2x2 inch, Schengen 35x45mm, and NADRA CNIC standards). However:
- Government specifications, lighting criteria, background nuances, and biometric tolerances are subject to frequent regulatory updates and strict official discretion.
- LocalDoc cannot and does not guarantee that photos processed through our tools will be officially accepted by any immigration department, visa processing center, or passport agency.
- Users are strongly advised to verify current photo requirements with the specific embassy or authority prior to submission.
4. Calculations, Financial & Engineering Tools
The Scientific Calculator and associated conversion utilities use standard IEEE-754 floating-point arithmetic and mathematical libraries. While engineered with high precision:
- Complex numerical approximations, matrix operations, and trigonometric evaluations can carry standard rounding variations inherent to digital computing.
- Calculations should not be used as the sole basis for critical structural engineering, life-safety decisions, medical dosages, or binding financial transactions without independent expert verification.
5. External Links & Third-Party References
Our blog guides and documentation may contain links to external third-party websites for research and informational context. LocalDoc has no control over the content, privacy policies, or practices of external sites and assumes no liability for their accuracy or operations.
6. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, LocalDoc, its founder (Amaad Mazari), contributors, and service affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of business opportunities, or rejection of visa applications, arising out of or in connection with the use of this website.
7. Contact Us Regarding Legal Inquiries
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this disclaimer or any aspect of LocalDoc's operational policies, please reach out through our Contact Page or review our Privacy Whitepaper and Terms of Service.
8. Accuracy of Biometric Photo Tools
LocalDoc's photo ID tools (including Passport Photo Maker, CNIC Photo Maker, Visa Photo Maker, and Emirates ID Photo Maker) use published biometric dimensions from government sources and international standards bodies. However, photo acceptance is ultimately at the discretion of the reviewing officer or automated system at the relevant authority. Users should verify current requirements directly with the issuing authority before submitting any official application.
Specifically, the following variables remain outside LocalDoc's control and may affect acceptance:
- Lighting conditions and shadows in the original photograph taken by the user.
- Expression, head tilt, and eye-openness requirements enforced by specific embassies or agencies.
- Background colour tolerance, which may differ between printed and digital submission formats.
- DPI and file format requirements that vary across immigration portals and print labs.
9. Scientific Calculator and Mathematical Tools
The LocalDoc Scientific Calculator and all related mathematical conversion utilities are designed for educational, academic, and general productivity purposes. Results should be independently verified for any application involving:
- Structural engineering calculations, civil design, or architecture.
- Medical or pharmaceutical dosage computations.
- Financial modelling, tax calculation, or legal accounting.
- Safety-critical systems or industrial process controls.
While LocalDoc's calculator uses IEEE-754 double-precision arithmetic and is thoroughly tested, floating-point rounding inherent to all digital computing systems can accumulate in complex multi-step calculations. We strongly recommend using professional certified software for any safety-critical or legally binding computation.
10. Changes to This Disclaimer
LocalDoc reserves the right to update or modify this disclaimer at any time without prior notice. Changes will be reflected with an updated "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of LocalDoc tools after any modification constitutes acceptance of the revised disclaimer. If you have questions about any clause in this document, please contact us via the Contact page.
