Terms of Service

Last updated: November 2026

These terms govern your use of waybackmachinedownload.com — our free Wayback Machine handbook — and the free Wayback Machine downloader operated at wayback.download, both owned and run by Wayback Revive LLC (“Wayback Revive”, “we”, “us”). By using the site or the tool, you agree to these terms.

1. Acceptable use

You may use the tool only for content that you have the rights to restore. By submitting a URL, you represent that at least one of the following is true:

  • You own the archived website.
  • You manage the archived website on behalf of its owner.
  • You have written permission from the rights holder.
  • The archived content is verifiably in the public domain.
  • You are performing due diligence on an expired domain you are considering purchasing, and you will not republish restored content without the rights holder’s permission.

2. Prohibited content

You may not use the tool to restore:

  • Content that enables malware distribution, phishing, or fraud.
  • Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) or other content illegal in the US.
  • Content for which you intend to impersonate the rights holder.
  • Content that infringes trademarks or other intellectual property.

We reserve the right to refuse, halt, or delete any job at our discretion if we believe these terms are being violated.

3. DMCA & takedown

Rights holders may submit a takedown notice by e-mailing support@waybackrevive.com with the subject “DMCA”. We respond to valid notices within 24 hours.

4. Independence from the Internet Archive

Wayback Revive LLC is an independent company and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the Internet Archive (operators of the Wayback Machine at archive.org). “Wayback Machine” is a trademark of the Internet Archive.

5. Warranty disclaimer

The free tool, this handbook, and this website are provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. The completeness of a restoration depends entirely on what the Internet Archive captured. We state what we restored and what we couldn’t in each job’s readme.txt.

6. Paid services

Paid self-serve plans (on wayback.download), human restoration services (on waybackrevive.com), and ongoing care plans (Revive Guard) are each sold on those sites under the terms published there. This handbook does not sell those services and does not set their commercial terms.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Wayback Revive LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the tool or this site. Our maximum aggregate liability for any claim is limited to the fees you paid us in the preceding 12 months (if any).

8. Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be announced at the top of this page with a new “Last updated” date. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Mexico, United States.
