This End User License Agreement (the "Agreement") is a legal agreement between you (the "Licensee", "you") and Riccardo Paterniti, a natural person established in Italy, trading as VeraVox (the "Licensor", "we", "us"). It governs your installation and use of the VeraVox software application for macOS (the "Software").
This Agreement governs the use of the Software. It is separate from the purchase of a licence: the contract of sale is concluded with Lemon Squeezy, which acts as Merchant of Record and seller of record for every purchase (see Section 3 and our Terms of Sale). This Agreement applies to your use of the Software however you obtained it, including during the free trial.
The parties to this Agreement are:
By downloading, installing, activating, or using the Software, including during the free trial, you confirm 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.
The purchase of a licence is a separate transaction concluded with Lemon Squeezy as Merchant of Record and seller of record (see Section 3 and our Terms of Sale). This Agreement governs only your right to use the Software, not the sale.
In this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings set out below:
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Software | The VeraVox application for macOS, in object-code form, including all its modules and accompanying documentation, together with any Updates provided under this Agreement. |
| Licence Key | The unique alphanumeric key issued on purchase that activates and validates your right to use the Software beyond the Trial. |
| Trial | The 30-day, fully functional free evaluation period described in Section 4. |
| Device | A single Mac computer that you own or control and on which the Software is installed. |
| Updates | Bug fixes, security patches, maintenance releases, and feature updates to the Software within the version 1.x series, delivered as described in Section 9. |
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, and (for use beyond the Trial) subject to a valid Licence Key obtained through Lemon Squeezy, the Licensor grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual licence to install and use the Software for all version 1.x releases.
This licence permits you to:
The licence is perpetual for the version 1.x series: it does not expire for as long as you comply with this Agreement. Version 2.0 and later major releases are separate products and are not included under this licence.
The Software is available as a fully functional free trial for a period of thirty (30) days from first launch. During the Trial no feature is disabled or time-limited, other than the overall duration of the Trial itself.
When the Trial expires, a valid Licence Key is required to continue using the Software. Your use of the Software during the Trial is governed by this Agreement in full.
To use the Software beyond the Trial, you enter your Licence Key. Activation is performed online: the Software records the Device against your allowance of three (3) Devices by contacting the licensing service operated by Lemon Squeezy.
While the Device is online, the Software periodically re-validates the Licence Key in the background, approximately every seven (7) days, to confirm that it remains valid. This process transmits only your Licence Key and a Device name (your Mac's host name). No audio content, library metadata, or listening history is ever transmitted (see our Privacy Policy).
You may deactivate the Software on a Device at any time to free a licence slot, allowing you to activate the Software on a different Device within your three-Device allowance.
Except to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement or by applicable mandatory law, you must not:
The restriction on reverse engineering, decompilation, and disassembly does not apply to the extent that such acts cannot be prohibited under applicable mandatory law, including the interoperability provisions of Article 6 of Directive 2009/24/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the legal protection of computer programs. Where the conditions of that law are met, you may perform such acts only to the limited extent that it permits.
The Software is licensed, not sold. The Licensor and its suppliers retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including all intellectual-property rights, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets. No rights are granted to you other than the limited licence expressly set out in this Agreement.
The VeraVox name and logo are trade marks of the Licensor. Nothing in this Agreement grants you any right to use them, except as strictly necessary to use the Software as permitted here.
The Software includes certain third-party open-source components. Those components, together with the full text of their respective licences, are listed in the Software's "Open-Source Licenses" screen, accessible from the Help section of the app. That list is incorporated into this Agreement by reference.
Each open-source component remains governed by its own licence. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the licence of an open-source component with respect to that component, the licence of that component prevails to the extent of the conflict.
All version 1.x Updates are included in your licence at no additional charge and are delivered through the open-source Sparkle update framework. Updates may include bug fixes, security patches, performance improvements, and new features within the version 1.x series.
Version 2.0 and any later major releases are separate products and are not included under this Agreement. You are under no obligation to install any Update, although some Updates may be necessary for the continued correct operation of the Software or its licensing service.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Software is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Licensor shall 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 the use of, or inability to use, the Software.
This Agreement takes effect when you first install or use the Software and continues for as long as you use it. The licence granted under this Agreement terminates automatically, without notice, if you materially breach any of its terms.
On termination for any reason, you must stop using the Software and remove all copies of it from your Devices. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 7, 10, 11, and 13) continue to apply. Termination does not affect any statutory rights you may have as a consumer, nor any refund rights described in our Refund Policy.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of Italy, without prejudice to the mandatory consumer-protection provisions of the law of the country in which you are habitually resident. Where you are a consumer, nothing in this Agreement deprives you of the protection afforded by those mandatory provisions, nor of your right to bring proceedings before the courts of your country of habitual residence.
