By creating an account or using any part of Toombler (toombler.com / toombler.net), you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the service.
Toombler is a web application that converts PDF files stored in your own Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive into interactive page-flip viewers ("flipbooks") that can be embedded on any website using an iframe, a JS snippet (a small <div> tag powered by a script loaded from toombler.com), a Web Component (<toombler-flipbook>), or an oEmbed URL that allows platforms such as WordPress and Ghost to auto-embed the flipbook. Toombler is provided free of charge.
Toombler is free because we show a single advertisement on the inside cover (page 2) of each embedded flipbook. This applies to all embed methods: iframe, JS snippet, Web Component, and oEmbed. This is the only commercial element of the service. We do not charge you, we do not sell your data, and we do not show ads anywhere else in the viewer or on the dashboard. By using Toombler you agree not to block, hide, or otherwise prevent the display of this single ad unit.
If you use the JS snippet or Web Component embed method, a script (embed.js) will be loaded from toombler.com each time a visitor loads the page containing your flipbook. You are responsible for ensuring that your website's cookie notice and privacy policy inform your visitors of third-party scripts loaded from Toombler, in accordance with applicable law (e.g. GDPR).
You sign in with your Google or Microsoft account. You are responsible for keeping access to that account secure. You may only create an account for yourself and must be at least 13 years old (16 in the EU). We reserve the right to suspend or delete accounts that violate these terms.
You retain full ownership of the PDF files you share via Toombler. Your files stay in your own storage account (Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive) — we never copy or permanently store the contents of your PDFs on our servers. By adding a share link to Toombler you confirm that:
You can delete your flipbooks from your dashboard at any time, which removes the link from our database. The underlying file in your own storage account is unaffected.
A flipbook link that has not been opened for twelve months, and was created more than twelve months ago, is deleted automatically, together with the account data attached to it if no other flipbooks remain. This keeps the service free to run. Opening a flipbook — by you or by any reader — resets that clock, so a flipbook in use is never removed.
If the source file of a flipbook listed in the public gallery cannot be reached on three daily checks in a row, the flipbook is removed from the gallery. The flipbook itself keeps working through its own link and embed code; only the listing goes, and you can switch it back on once the link works again.
You may not use Toombler to distribute content that:
We reserve the right to remove flipbooks or suspend accounts that we believe, in good faith, violate these rules.
Toombler does not host your document. Your PDF stays in your own storage account (Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive); we store only the share link you give us, your settings, and an anonymous view count. We never receive, copy or keep a copy of the file itself.
Because of that, you are solely responsible for the content you link to. By adding a link to Toombler you confirm that you own the material, or that you have the rights and permissions needed to publish and share it. That includes text, photographs, illustrations, fonts and any third-party material inside the document. If you are not sure whether you are allowed to publish something, do not publish it.
You agree to indemnify Toombler against any claim, demand or cost arising from material you publish through the service, including claims of copyright or trademark infringement.
If you believe a flipbook published through Toombler infringes your rights, email abuse@toombler.com with:
toombler.com/f/…) of the flipbook concerned.We review reports promptly and will disable access to the flipbook where a report appears well-founded, and may suspend the account concerned. Note that removing a flipbook only removes the viewer and the link on our side: the file itself lives in the uploader's own storage account, so a complete takedown may also require a request to that provider or to the uploader.
The Toombler name, logo, and software are owned by Toombler. Nothing in these terms grants you a right to use our brand or copy our software. The flipbook viewer technology is built in part on open-source libraries (StPageFlip, PDF.js); their respective licences apply.
Toombler integrates with Google services (Identity, Analytics, AdSense), reads files from the storage provider you choose (Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive), and runs on Cloudflare infrastructure. Your use of those services is also governed by their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the actions of third-party services.
Toombler is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. We do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that your flipbooks will always be accessible. We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service at any time.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Toombler shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising from your use of — or inability to use — the service, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service shall not exceed €100.
These terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands. Any disputes that cannot be resolved amicably will be submitted to the competent court in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. If you are a consumer in the EU, you also retain the protections afforded by the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence.
We may update these terms from time to time. We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, for material changes, post a notice on the homepage. Continued use after a change constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
