The Service is currently intended for use by individuals and entities located in the United States. You may access and use free features of the Service from other jurisdictions where permitted by law; however, certain features, including paid subscriptions, may be restricted based on your location, billing address, or payment method.
DocuBench reserves the right to limit, refuse, or revoke access to paid features for users outside the United States, including by restricting payment methods to U.S.-issued cards.
By using the Service, you represent and warrant that your access and use complies with applicable export control, sanctions, and trade laws.
