Terms of Use
Last updated: September 24, 2026
These Terms of Use govern your use of Cleanup. Cleanup is operated by PubWave. By using the app, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
Use of the App
Cleanup helps you find and remove duplicate photos, look-alike shots, blurry images, screenshots, screen recordings, and large videos, compress videos, and merge duplicate contacts. You are responsible for using the app only with libraries, contacts, and devices you own or are authorized to manage.
Deletion Is Yours to Confirm
The app recommends what to keep and preselects what it considers removable, but nothing is deleted until you confirm it. Deletions are carried out through your system photo library or contacts store, and follow whatever recovery behavior those services provide, such as a Recently Deleted album. You are responsible for reviewing a selection before confirming it and for keeping your own backups.
Video Compression
Compression re-encodes a video on your device and writes a smaller copy. Estimated savings shown before compression are approximations and actual results depend on the source file. Re-encoding is lossy, so the copy will not be identical to the original. The app does not delete an original until you confirm it.
Contacts Access
Contacts merging requires contacts permission and acts on your contacts at your direction. You can revoke the permission at any time, which stops the feature from working.
Subscriptions and Purchases
Cleanup may offer premium features through subscriptions or one-time purchases. Purchases are processed by the app store and may be managed through your Apple App Store or Google Play account.
- Prices, billing periods, and included features are shown in the app before purchase.
- Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Your account may be charged for renewal within 24 hours before the current subscription period ends.
- You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple ID account settings or Google Play subscription settings.
- If a free trial is offered, it converts to a paid subscription unless canceled before the trial ends.
- Refund rules are controlled by the applicable app store.
- Premium access depends on app store validation and purchase provider availability.
- You can restore eligible purchases using the app or the app store account used for purchase.
Ads and Free Uses
The free version of the app includes a small number of free uses each day and may show ads, including rewarded ads that grant additional uses. Some features, such as compressing several videos at once, are available only with Premium. Free uses and rewards are limited, non-transferable, hold no cash value, and may be unavailable when no ad can be served. Premium removes ads where described in the app. Ad availability and privacy choices may vary by region and platform.
Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the app with accounts, libraries, or devices you are not authorized to manage.
- Attempt to reverse engineer, modify, or misuse the app or its services.
- Use the app in a way that disrupts services, devices, or other users.
- Bypass subscriptions, ads, reward limits, technical limitations, or security controls.
No Affiliation
Cleanup is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any operating system provider or other brand referenced in the app unless expressly stated. All trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used only to describe compatibility as nominative fair use.
No Warranty
We work to make scanning, grouping, compression, and cleanup accurate and reliable. Because libraries, file formats, device capabilities, and third-party services vary, we cannot guarantee that every duplicate, look-alike, or blurry item is detected, that every recommendation is the one you would have chosen, or that every feature is always available or error-free.
Purchases, subscriptions, and premium access may also depend on app store validation and purchase provider availability.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the app, including loss of data, photos, videos, contacts, or revenue.
Changes to the App or Terms
We may update the app, change features, add or remove supported services, or modify these terms. The latest version will always be available on this page.
Termination
You may stop using the app at any time by deleting it from your device. Premium access may be limited or revoked where required by app store rules, purchase validation, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or a violation of these terms.
Apple Terms
If you downloaded Cleanup from the Apple App Store, Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce these terms against you after you accept them. Apple is not responsible for providing maintenance or support for the app, except where required by applicable law.
Governing Law
To the extent permitted by law, these terms are governed by the laws applicable in the operator's place of establishment, without regard to conflict of law rules. Mandatory consumer protection laws in your country or region may still apply.
Severability
If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the remaining parts will continue to apply.
