Terms of Use

Last updated:

1. Purpose

These terms set out the conditions for using lab.ascii (the “service”) and the rights and duties of users and the operator. By using the service, you agree to these terms.

2. The service

  • The service is a web tool that turns text and images into ASCII art and lets you copy the result or download it as a TXT or PNG file.
  • Every feature is free and needs no account. Running costs are covered by advertising.
  • Conversion happens inside your browser. The text you type and the images you add are not sent to a server.

3. Your responsibilities

  • You must hold the rights you need (copyright, trademark, image rights, and so on) to the images you add and the text you type. Do not make or distribute results that infringe someone else’s rights.
  • Do not use the results to harass or deceive others, or for any purpose that breaks the law.
  • Do not use the service in abnormal ways, such as automated bulk requests, or interfere with its operation.

4. Ownership of results

You own the text you type, the images you add, and the results you make with the service. You may use the results for personal or commercial purposes. The operator claims no rights in your input or results and never receives them.

The FIGlet fonts used for text banners, and the text art and kaomoji in the gallery, have been shared widely for many years. The operator holds no exclusive rights in them. The operator owns the rights in the site’s design, logo, guide articles, and software.

5. Limits of liability

  • The service is provided as is, with no guarantee that it will produce the result you want for every text, image, or device.
  • Results can look different depending on the font and screen width of the app you paste them into. Unless caused by intent or gross negligence, the operator is not liable for loss that results from using a result without checking it.
  • Closing or reloading the tab clears your work. Unless caused by intent or gross negligence, the operator is not liable for loss that results from losing work in progress.
  • Advertisers are responsible for the content of their ads and the sites those ads lead to.

6. Changes and interruptions

The operator may change the features of the service, or suspend it temporarily or permanently for maintenance, outages, or operational reasons. Important changes will be announced on the site in advance where possible.

7. Changes to these terms

If these terms change, the updated version and its effective date will be posted on this page. Continuing to use the service after the effective date means you accept the updated terms.

8. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea, and disputes related to the service are resolved in the court with jurisdiction under the Korean Civil Procedure Act.

These terms are effective as of September 30, 2026.
