This Software Distribution Policy explains the nature of I Love My LaTeX and clarifies that the service is not a desktop software distribution website.
I Love My LaTeX is a cloud-based online document conversion platform. Users upload PDF documents, images, or scanned pages through the web application and receive editable LaTeX source files generated online.
1. Cloud-based online service
I Love My LaTeX operates as an online cloud-based service. The conversion process takes place through our web application and related backend systems.
Users do not need to install any software on their computer in order to use the service. The platform works online through a web browser.

I Love My LaTeX does not distribute, promote, or provide desktop software applications.
We do not provide or distribute:
- desktop applications;
