Activation

Activate your key.

Paste the key from your purchase email. It is checked once with Dodo Payments, then kept on this device so the tools can read it without asking anyone.

What this sends, and what it does not

Activating sends your licence key and a device label to Dodo Payments, our payment provider, and nothing else. It is the only request FileGizmo makes to anyone, and it happens on this page only. No file you have ever opened in a FileGizmo tool is involved, and none of them can make this request: every tool page is served with a policy that forbids it, which you can check in the Network panel.

The device label is the word FileGizmo and your browser name. It is not a fingerprint, and we do not send your email, your IP is simply where the request comes from, and nothing is stored on our side because there is no our side.

What activation actually changes

It raises the limits the free tier caps, starting with image batch sizes. It is stored in this browser, on this device, for thirty days, after which this page checks again. If you clear site data, use another browser, or open a private window, you will need to activate again — there is no account to log in to.

Being straightforward about this: the stored result is a value in your own browser, and anyone who wants to edit it can. We are not going to pretend otherwise by adding a check that cannot work on a site with no server. Paying raises the limits and keeps the tools being made; it is not a lock, and treating it as one would mean sending your files somewhere to be checked, which is the one thing FileGizmo will not do.

Seats and moving between machines

A key allows a set number of activations. Release this device before activating on another if you have used them all, using the button above — that frees the seat immediately.
