2. Description of Service
previewog.com provides a free Open Graph preview tool that allows you to:
- Submit a URL and see how it appears when shared on 15+ social platforms
- Access educational content about Open Graph tags, link previews, and social sharing

We are not affiliated with any social media platform. Preview renderings are approximations based on publicly available design patterns.

4. No Warranty on Accuracy
While we strive for accuracy, we make no guarantees that:
- Preview renderings exactly match how each platform displays links
- Extracted meta tag data is complete or current
- Platforms will not change their preview designs at any time

Social platforms frequently update their link preview layouts. Our previews are visual approximations for reference only.

5. URL Processing and Caching
When you submit a URL, our server fetches the target page to extract Open Graph meta tags. By submitting a URL, you confirm that:
- You have a legitimate reason to preview that URL
- You are not using the service to access restricted or private content

Fetched metadata is cached for up to 24 hours. You can force a fresh fetch by re-submitting the URL via the form.

11. Termination
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend access to the Site at our discretion, without notice, for any reason including violation of these Terms.
