Terms of use
A file check, not a compliance sign-off.

Who operates FileCheck
CPSC FileCheck is operated by Txapela Publishing LLC. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. These terms govern your use of the FileCheck website and browser-based CSV checker.
What the tool does
FileCheck performs limited, automated checks on selected CSV structure and selected Product Registry fields. It may identify formatting or logical issues and make narrow formatting repairs in an exported working CSV.
What the tool does not do
FileCheck does not provide legal advice, regulatory advice, customs brokerage, testing services, product classification, certification, a determination that a product requires or does not require a certificate, or a guarantee that a file or product will be accepted by CPSC, CBP, a broker, a laboratory, or any other party.
Your responsibility
You are responsible for the accuracy, completeness, legality, and final review of your data and for every submission you make. Do not rely on FileCheck as your sole compliance control. Review the current CPSC materials, your actual source records, and qualified professional guidance where appropriate before submitting a file.
Paid exports and refunds
FileCheck may offer a one-time paid unlock for download of a corrected working CSV when FileCheck has safely applied a correction. Payment is processed by Stripe. The unlock applies to the CSV retained in your browser; FileCheck does not retain a copy of the CSV. For purchase recovery and delivery evidence, FileCheck may retain non-content cryptographic hashes and technical processing/delivery records; those hashes cannot reconstruct your CSV. Our Refund Policy is incorporated into these terms.
Availability and limits
The tool is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Availability is not guaranteed to be uninterrupted. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Txapela Publishing LLC disclaims warranties and is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of the tool.
Acceptable use and intellectual property
Do not use the service for unlawful purposes, interfere with the website, bypass access controls, or process data you are not authorized to handle. FileCheck and its software, content, and branding remain the property of their respective owners; you retain responsibility for and rights in your source data.
Updates and governing law
We may update these terms prospectively by posting a revised version. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable law requires otherwise.
