Manga Translator Z

Terms of Service

Effective date: August 25, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Manga Translator Z browser extension ("the Extension") and its hosted translation service. By installing or using the Extension, you agree to these Terms.

1. Service Description

Manga Translator Z is a browser extension that translates manga, manhwa, and manhua images using AI-powered text detection, translation, inpainting, and text rendering. The Extension supports multiple backend modes:

2. Usage Tiers and Limits

Plan Overview

Plan Hosted Pages Local / BYOK Cost
Basic 100 per week Unlimited Basic
Day Pass 100 in 24 hours Unlimited $0.99 / 24h
Starter 1,500 per month Unlimited $4.99 / month or $49 / year
Power 3,000 per month Unlimited $9.99 / month

Basic-plan usage resets weekly. Only successful hosted translations count toward your quota. Local server, Ollama, and OpenAI BYOK translations are always unlimited regardless of plan.

We reserve the right to adjust plan pricing, quotas, and features with reasonable notice. Active paid subscriptions will be honored through their current billing period.

3. Acceptable Use

You agree to use the Extension in a lawful and reasonable manner. The following activities are prohibited:

Violation of these terms may result in temporary or permanent revocation of your access to the hosted translation service.

4. Copyright and Content Responsibility

You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Extension complies with applicable copyright laws. The Extension is a translation tool; it does not host, distribute, or provide access to manga content.

Manga Translator Z does not endorse or facilitate copyright infringement. The Extension translates images that you are already viewing in your browser. You are responsible for having the legal right to access, submit, process, and translate the content you use with this Extension.

When you use hosted mode, you represent and warrant that you have all rights, licenses, permissions, and consents needed to send the requested content to Manga Translator Z and OpenAI and to permit the processing and use described in these Terms and the Privacy Policy. You remain responsible for the content you submit and for your use of the resulting translation.

5. Hosted OpenAI Processing

By choosing hosted mode and accepting the in-extension hosted-processing notice, you instruct Manga Translator Z to upload the manga page image or detected regions you request, relevant language and translation settings, optional glossary instructions, and up to 20 recent source and translation pairs through the Manga Translator Z server to OpenAI for text recognition, parsing, and translation. This hosted transfer is how the extension performs the user-requested hosted recognition and translation.

Manga Translator Z currently participates in OpenAI's API input and output data-sharing program. You acknowledge that OpenAI may use the inputs and outputs shared through hosted mode to identify usage patterns, measure model quality, and inform future model evaluation, improvement, and training. OpenAI's processing is governed by its own privacy policy, services agreement, and data-sharing explanation.

If you do not agree to this hosted processing, do not use hosted mode. You may instead use Ollama, a self-hosted server, or OpenAI BYOK under your own OpenAI account and settings.

6. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Extension and hosted translation service are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.

Specifically, we do not warrant that:

Translation quality depends on image quality, text clarity, language complexity, and the AI models used. Machine translation is inherently imperfect, and results should not be relied upon where precision is critical.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Manga Translator Z and its developers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Extension or hosted service.

This includes, but is not limited to, damages for loss of data, inaccurate translations, service interruptions, or any costs incurred from third-party API usage (such as OpenAI API charges in BYOK mode).

8. Third-Party Services

Hosted mode relies on OpenAI as an AI processing provider. OpenAI receives the requested content and context described above to provide text recognition, parsing, and translation and may use shared inputs and outputs for model evaluation, improvement, and training. When using BYOK or Ollama backends, you interact directly with the provider or software you select. Your use of third-party services is governed by their respective terms and policies. We are not responsible for their availability, pricing, retention practices, or behavior.

9. Account Termination

We may suspend or revoke access to the hosted translation service if we reasonably determine that you have violated these Terms. You may stop using the Extension at any time by uninstalling it from Chrome.

Paid plan refund requests are reviewed case by case. Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory consumer rights that apply to you.

10. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the extension update notes. Continued use of the Extension after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

11. Privacy

Your privacy matters to us. Please review our Privacy Policy for details on what data we collect and how it is handled.
