These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Swiftfox Studio, the software brand operated by Galip Öztürk, an independent developer based in Türkiye ("we", "us", "our"), covering the macOS applications we publish under the Swiftfox Studio brand (the "Apps") and the website at swiftfox.studio (the "Site"). They apply uniformly to every App we ship.
By installing, launching, or using an App - or by browsing the Site - you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Apps or the Site.
These Terms replace the standard Apple end-user licence agreement (the "Apple Standard EULA") for our Apps. Where these Terms and the Apple Standard EULA conflict, these Terms govern as between you and us. The Apple Standard EULA continues to govern the relationship between you and Apple.
1. The licence we grant you
We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use each App on Apple-branded devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial or internal business purposes, subject to these Terms and to the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms.
You do not receive any other rights. The App is licensed to you, not sold.
2. What you may not do
You agree not to:
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits despite this restriction.
- Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notice.
- Resell, redistribute, sublicense, rent, or lease the App or any of its components.
- Use the App to build a competing product or to extract its content for training machine-learning systems without our written permission.
- Use the App to violate any applicable law or the rights of any third party.
3. Your content stays yours
Many of our Apps let you create or store content - notes, recordings, documents, configurations. You retain ownership of everything you create. The Apps are designed to keep your content on your device under your control. Where an App synchronises content (for example through your own iCloud account), the third-party service hosting it governs that storage.
4. Subscriptions, in-app purchases, and refunds
Some Apps offer paid features through Apple's App Store and StoreKit.
- Payment. Apple processes payment. We do not see your card details.
- Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, in your Apple ID Subscriptions settings.
- Refunds. Refund requests for App Store purchases are handled by Apple, not by us. You can request a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com. For purchases made outside the App Store (where applicable), write to [email protected].
- Price and feature changes. We may change the price of a subscription or what it includes on a forward-looking basis. We will tell you before any such change takes effect.
5. Updates
We may release updates that add, modify, or remove features. Some updates are necessary for the App to keep working with the latest macOS releases. The licence in Section 1 covers updates we make available to you. Where an update changes a paid feature materially, Section 4 (Subscriptions) applies.
6. Third-party services
The Apps and the Site may interoperate with third-party services (Apple App Store, podcast hosts, music services, calendar providers, etc.). Your use of those services is governed by their own terms. We are not responsible for third-party services and we do not endorse them.
7. Intellectual property
The Apps, the Site, and everything in them - including names, logos, designs, source code, and content authored by us - are owned by Swiftfox Studio or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership to you.
8. Feedback
If you send us suggestions, ideas, or feedback, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use them without restriction. We are not obliged to keep feedback confidential.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Apps and the Site are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and the absence of defects.
We do not warrant that the Apps will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that data you create with them will never be lost. Keep your own backups.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Swiftfox Studio will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Apps or the Site - even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Our aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or in connection with the Apps or the Site is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid for the App in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, and (b) USD 50.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (for example, liability for gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or death and personal injury caused by negligence).
11. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold Swiftfox Studio harmless from any claim brought by a third party arising out of your breach of these Terms or your unlawful use of the Apps or the Site.
12. Termination
These Terms apply for as long as you use the Apps or the Site. You can terminate at any time by uninstalling the Apps and stopping use of the Site. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms or if we are required to do so by law. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, governing law) will survive.
13. Governing law and dispute resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The courts and enforcement offices of Istanbul, Türkiye have exclusive jurisdiction, except that you may bring a claim in the courts of your place of residence where mandatory consumer-protection law requires.
If you are a consumer in the EU/EEA or the UK, this clause does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory laws of your country of residence.
14. Apple-specific provisions
You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and Swiftfox Studio, not Apple, and that Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App. In the event the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty that has not been disclaimed here, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price; Apple has no other warranty obligation. Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
15. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we update the Effective date at the top and bump the Version. For material changes we will give reasonable notice through the App or the Site before they take effect. Your continued use after the new Terms take effect means you accept them.
