Effective date: January 1, 2025 · App version: 1.0 and later

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using CopyCount ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

2. License

Subject to these Terms and the End User License Agreement (EULA), Ron Yahav ("Developer") grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use CopyCount on any Mac computers that you own or control, for personal or professional use. The App is licensed, not sold.

3. Acceptable Use

You may use CopyCount to view text statistics and character counts on your Mac. You agree not to:

Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App
Modify, adapt, or create derivative works based on the App
Remove or alter any proprietary notices or labels
Use the App in any way that violates applicable law
Distribute, sublicense, or sell copies of the App

4. Clipboard and Privacy

Important: CopyCount reads from your system clipboard to provide text statistics. The Developer does not store, transmit, or monitor the contents of your clipboard or the text you analyze.

The App operates entirely locally on your device. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are not violating any third-party confidentiality agreements by copying sensitive text into the App, though the App itself does not retain this data.

5. Intellectual Property

CopyCount and all associated software, design, graphics, and documentation are the exclusive property of Ron Yahav and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. The "CopyCount" name and associated branding may not be used without prior written permission.

Apple, macOS, and Finder are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. CopyCount is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Apple Inc.

6. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

7. 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, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE APP, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

In jurisdictions that do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.

8. Updates and Changes

The Developer reserves the right to update, modify, or discontinue the App at any time without notice. Updates distributed through the Mac App Store may change features or behaviour. Continued use of the App after an update constitutes acceptance of any changes.

9. Termination

This license is effective until terminated. Your rights under this license will terminate automatically without notice if you breach any provision of these Terms. Upon termination, you must cease all use of the App and delete all copies in your possession.

10. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with applicable law. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in the Developer's jurisdiction of residence.
