End User License Agreement
IMPORTANT — READ CAREFULLY. This End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you ("User", "you", or "your") and Apphara Tech ("Developer", "we", "us", or "our") governing your use of the Apphara Player software application, together with all associated features, media, documentation, and updates (collectively, the "Software"). By installing, copying, activating, accessing, or otherwise using the Software, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.
1. Definitions
"Software" means the Apphara Player application and all components, updates, and documentation provided by the Developer. "License Key" means the activation credential issued to you upon purchase. "Trial" means the time-limited evaluation period described in Section 4.
2. License Grant
Subject to your continued compliance with this Agreement and payment of any applicable fees, the Developer grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the Software on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, for your personal or internal business purposes.
3. License Keys and Activation
Continued use of the Software after the Trial requires a valid License Key. Each License Key may be activated on up to the number of devices specified at the time of purchase (currently two). You are responsible for keeping your License Key confidential and for all activity under it. The Developer may use reasonable technical measures to validate licenses and prevent unauthorized use.
4. Free Trial
The Software may be offered with a time-limited free Trial (currently fourteen (14) days). During the Trial the Software is fully functional. At the end of the Trial, a valid License Key is required to continue using the Software. The Developer may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Trial at any time.
5. License Restrictions
You shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any third party to: (a) copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the Software; (b) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code, except to the limited extent such restriction is prohibited by applicable law; (c) rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, distribute, publish, or otherwise transfer the Software or your License Key; (d) remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices; (e) circumvent or disable any license, activation, security, or usage-control mechanism; (f) use the Software in any unlawful manner or to infringe the rights of others; or (g) use the Software to store, organize, or distribute content you do not have the lawful right to possess.
6. Ownership and Intellectual Property
The Software is licensed, not sold. The Developer and its licensors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including all copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other intellectual property rights therein. Except for the limited license expressly granted in this Agreement, no rights are granted to you, whether by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.
7. User Content and Responsibility
You are solely responsible for the media files and other content you access, import, organize, or manage using the Software, and for ensuring that you have all necessary rights and permissions to do so. The Developer does not monitor, review, or assume any responsibility for your content.
8. Third-Party and Open-Source Components
The Software incorporates third-party and open-source components, including but not limited to VLCKit (LGPL 2.1), FFmpeg (LGPL 2.1), whisper.cpp (MIT), and SQLite (Public Domain). Such components are provided under their respective licenses, which are available via Help → About. To the extent required by those licenses, their terms govern your use of the applicable components and, in case of conflict, prevail over this Agreement with respect to those components only.
9. Updates and Maintenance
The Developer may, but is not obligated to, provide updates, upgrades, bug fixes, or new versions of the Software. Unless accompanied by a separate license, any such update is governed by this Agreement. The Software may check for, download, and install updates automatically; you may be able to disable automatic updates in settings.
10. Privacy
The Software processes your media locally on your device. The Developer does not collect, transmit, or store your media content or personal library data on external servers, except as reasonably necessary for license validation and update checks. Where the Software fetches optional metadata or artwork from third-party services at your request, your use of those services is subject to their terms. Please review our Privacy Policy.
11. Fees, Payment, and Refunds
License fees are payable in advance. Except where required by applicable law, all sales are final and license fees are non-refundable. Purchases are processed by an authorized reseller or third-party store (such as LemonSqueezy or the Mac App Store) acting as merchant of record, which is solely responsible for billing and for collecting and remitting any applicable taxes. Payments, taxes, and any refunds are governed by that party's policies, not by the Developer.
12. Term and Termination
This Agreement is effective until terminated. It terminates automatically, without notice, if you breach any provision. Upon termination, you must immediately cease all use of the Software and destroy all copies in your possession or control. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including Sections 5–8 and 11–19 — shall survive.
13. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
14. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE DEVELOPER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE OR THIS AGREEMENT, HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE DEVELOPER'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING BACKUPS OF YOUR DATA.
15. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Developer and its affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your misuse of the Software, your content, or your breach of this Agreement.
16. Export and Compliance
You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a government embargo, and you agree to comply with all applicable export, re-export, and import laws and regulations in connection with your use of the Software.
17. Governing Law and Disputes
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in India for any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.
18. Changes to This Agreement
The Developer may modify this Agreement from time to time. Material changes will be presented to you for acceptance within the Software. Your continued use of the Software after such changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Agreement.
19. General
If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The Developer's failure to enforce any right or provision shall not constitute a waiver. You may not assign this Agreement without the Developer's prior written consent. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Developer regarding the Software and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings.
