Doci Terms of Service

Signing up and your account

Doci’s member features are available to people of any age. You finish signing up by signing in with Google or Naver, choosing a nickname and confirming the required consents. You may not impersonate another person or the operator. You can change your nickname and profile photo in My settings, and you may not use another person’s photo, or an image that infringes someone’s rights, as your profile photo.

Documents and sharing

Only write content you have the right to use. You may not post content that infringes other people’s rights or personal information. A document’s owner decides who it is shared with and whether they can view, comment or edit, and participants use it within the permissions they were given. Invitations and co-editing (creating Can edit links, inviting members and editing documents shared with you) are member-only features. Do not make share links or recovery keys public.

The owner chooses for each link whether its title appears in link previews.

File attachments

Members can upload files and photos to documents they can edit. Each file can be up to 20 MB, the files uploaded to one document can total up to 100 MB, and executable files (such as installers) cannot be uploaded. Upload only files you have the right to share. You may not upload files that infringe other people’s rights or personal information or that contain malicious code, and the person who uploads a file is responsible for it. Doci does not scan file contents or guarantee that files are safe, so check downloaded files before opening them. Files confirmed to infringe rights or violate these terms may be deleted.

Using Doci as a guest

You can create and edit documents without signing in, and share them with Can view or Can comment links and poll & survey links. In documents shared with you, you can leave comments and poll or survey responses, depending on the link's permissions. A guest who opens a Can edit link can only read and comment, and can edit after signing in. Can edit links already created in a guest-owned document keep working, and signed-in members can edit through them. If you lose your device records or recovery key, you may not be able to regain access. When you sign in or sign up on a device (a browser or the app), the documents made on that device without signing in, including those in the Trash, move to the library of the account that signed in. On a device several people use, they go to whoever signs in on it, so on a shared device please sign in before you create documents. Documents beyond the library limit (500 documents) stay on that device as guest documents. Documents you opened through a shared link do not change owner when you sign in, and you get no more than the permissions the link gives.

Retention and deletion

Owners can move a document to the Trash and restore it within 30 days. Documents made without signing in move to the Trash if nobody opens them for 90 days, and are permanently deleted unless restored on that device within 30 days. Documents in a member library are never removed this way. Permanent deletion cannot be undone, and the files uploaded to that document are deleted with it. Members can delete their account right away under Account in My settings by typing a confirmation phrase. When you delete your account, the documents you own are permanently deleted at once, including ones shared with other people and ones in the Trash, and this cannot be undone; your comments and poll & survey responses in other people’s documents are deleted too. What you wrote and the files you uploaded in other people’s documents stay in those documents, and the author is shown as ‘Deleted user’. You can make requests about your personal information through the Doci contact form. Team-created documents are an exception. If another active teammate remains when you delete your account, their ownership passes to the team administrator or a successor, and the documents, attachments and team collections stay with the team. The administrator can also reassign team document ownership. Personal documents brought into a team follow their original ownership and deletion rules. If no eligible teammate remains, they are deleted as shown in the account deletion confirmation.

Operations and contact

Use may be restricted for maintenance or to respond to rights infringement or violations of these terms. Please send questions about your use and any objections through Doci's private contact form.
