Terms of Use

Effective [PLACEHOLDER: effective date]

These terms apply when you download, try, buy or use Arcopy, the macOS app, and when you use this website. If you do not agree with them, do not use the app.

1. Who we are

Arcopy is made by Creative Ghost [PLACEHOLDER: legal form, e.g. S.A.C.], [PLACEHOLDER: registered address], Peru. In these terms, “we” and “us” mean that company. You can reach us at support@creativeghosts.co.

2. The trial

You can download Arcopy and use it for 7 days without paying. No account and no payment details are needed. When the trial ends, the app asks for a license key before it keeps working.

3. Buying a license

A license is a one-time payment. There is no subscription and no renewal. Our orders are processed by Lemon Squeezy, who is the merchant of record: Lemon Squeezy sells you the license, takes the payment, adds any sales tax or VAT, and sends you the receipt and the license key by email. Lemon Squeezy’s own terms apply to the payment.

4. What the license gives you

• The license does not expire. You can keep using the version you bought for as long as you want.
• It includes every update of the major version you bought (for example, every 1.x release).
• A later major version may be a separate, paid upgrade. You are never required to buy it.
• One license is for one person, on up to 3 Macs that person uses.
• The license is for you. You may not resell it, rent it out or share the key with other people.

5. Activating and moving your license

Each Mac you activate uses one of your 3 activations. You can deactivate a Mac from inside the app to free its activation, for example before you erase or sell that Mac. If you can no longer open the app on a Mac, email us and we will free the activation for you.

Activating or deactivating a Mac sends your license key and this Mac’s name to our license provider, to check the key and count your activations. These are the only times the app contacts it, and only when you start them. Nothing else leaves your Mac, and the app does not check the license in the background.

Activating or deactivating a license needs an internet connection. Using the app afterwards does not.

6. What you may not do

• Share, publish or sell license keys.
• Remove or work around the trial or the license check.
• Redistribute the app, or sell it as your own.
• Use the app to break the law or to capture content you have no right to copy.

7. Your content

What you capture, dictate and copy is yours. We do not receive it and we claim no rights over it. You are responsible for having the right to copy what you capture.

8. Services from other companies

Some optional features use services that are not ours: a cloud AI provider you connect with your own API key, the image search that opens in your browser, and the speech model the app downloads. Your use of those services is under their terms, and any cost of your own API key is yours. We do not control those services and are not responsible for them. Our Privacy Policy says what each one receives.

Recognition and transcription are done by software models and can be wrong. Check the text before you rely on it.

9. Ownership

Arcopy, its name, its logo and this website belong to us. The license lets you use the app; it does not transfer ownership of it. The app includes open-source components, which stay under their own licenses; these are listed inside the app.

10. Refunds

You can ask for a refund within 14 days of your purchase. See the Refund Policy.

11. No warranty

Arcopy is provided “as is”. To the extent the law allows, we give no warranty that the app will be free of errors, will run without interruption, or will suit a particular purpose. The 7-day trial is there so you can check that it works for you before you buy.

12. Limit of liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for lost data or lost profit, and our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for your license. Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law does not allow us to limit.

13. Ending the license

You can stop using Arcopy at any time. We may end your license if you seriously break these terms, for example by sharing your key. If a payment is refunded or reversed, the license that came with it ends.

14. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Peru, and the courts of [PLACEHOLDER: city], Peru have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, this does not take away rights that the law of the country you live in gives you and that cannot be waived.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The new version applies from the date shown at the top of this page. A change does not take away a license you have already bought.
