# Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-08-28

Arabic Word Production is provided as free, open-source software under the [Apache License 2.0](https://github.com/Bannovich/arabic-word-production/blob/main/LICENSE).

## Scope

The project provides instructions and local tooling for creating and auditing Word `DOCX` documents. It is not a managed document-processing service, legal service, accessibility certification, security review, records-management system, or substitute for human review.

## Validation claims

The project distinguishes between a file being built, structurally audited, rendered and inspected, and verified in Word Desktop. Do not represent a document as Word Desktop verified unless the exact file was opened and checked in Word Desktop for the claimed run.

## Compatibility and responsibility

Rendering may vary across Word versions, fonts, operating systems, printer drivers, and other office suites. You are responsible for confirming fitness for your purpose, reviewing generated content, keeping backups, and following your organization's requirements before relying on an output.

## No warranty and trademarks

The Apache-2.0 license contains the governing warranty and liability terms. Microsoft, Word, OpenAI, ChatGPT, and Codex are trademarks of their respective owners; this project is independent and is not endorsed by them.

## Changes

Material project changes are versioned in the public repository and release notes. Continued use of a newer version is subject to the versioned materials published with it.
