Terms of Service — LaunchMe
Last updated: April 2026
Operator: LaunchMe is operated from Los Angeles, California, United States.
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the LaunchMe macOS application (“LaunchMe,” the “App”) provided by us (“we,” “us”). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms.
If you do not agree, do not use the App.
1. Two ways to obtain LaunchMe
1.1 Mac App Store version
If you obtain LaunchMe from the Apple Mac App Store, your use may also be subject to Apple’s applicable terms, including the Mac App Store terms and Apple Media Services Terms, and Apple’s standard EULA where applicable. If there is a conflict between these Terms and Apple’s required terms for App Store distribution, Apple’s terms control for the App Store version to the extent required by Apple.
1.2 Website-distributed version
If you install the website-distributed version (downloaded from launchmeapp.com or our official distribution pages, outside the Mac App Store), these Terms apply together with any checkout terms presented by our payment provider (Paddle) at the time of purchase.
2. License grant
Subject to these Terms and your payment status (if applicable), we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on supported macOS devices you own or control.
3. Accounts (website-distributed version)
Certain features of the website-distributed version may require an account. You agree to:
- provide accurate information,
- keep credentials confidential,
- notify us if you suspect unauthorized access.
You are responsible for activity under your account.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App except where prohibited by applicable law;
- circumvent licensing, authentication, or security;
- use the App to violate law or third-party rights;
- interfere with the App’s normal operation or our systems.
5. Purchases, subscriptions, and taxes
5.1 Mac App Store purchases
Purchases through Apple are billed and managed by Apple. Pricing, renewals, cancellations, and refunds may be governed by Apple’s policies.
5.2 Website-distributed purchases
Purchases through the website-distributed checkout may be processed by Paddle (or another provider we disclose at checkout). You authorize us and our payment providers to charge applicable fees and taxes as shown at checkout.
Subscription auto-renewal: If you purchase a subscription, it may renew automatically until canceled in accordance with the checkout disclosures and applicable law.
6. Updates
We may provide updates (features, security patches, compatibility). The website-distributed version may update via mechanisms such as Sparkle. Updates may be required for continued use where reasonably necessary for security or compliance.
7. Intellectual property
The App, branding, and related materials are protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the limited license above, we reserve all rights.
8. Third-party services
The App may rely on third-party services (Apple, authentication providers, payment providers, analytics in the website-distributed version). Your use of those services may be subject to their terms.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the App is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers; in that case, disclaimers apply to the fullest extent permitted.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
- we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or loss of profits, data, or goodwill;
- our total liability for any claim arising out of these Terms or the App will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid to us for the App in the 12 months before the claim or (b) USD $50.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in that case, limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted.
11. Termination
We may suspend or terminate access if you materially breach these Terms or if required for legal or security reasons. You may stop using the App at any time.
12. Changes to these Terms
We may modify these Terms by posting an updated version. Material changes may require additional notice where required by law. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance unless applicable law requires otherwise.
13. Governing law; venue
These Terms (and any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App) are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.
You agree that the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California will have exclusive jurisdiction over any such dispute, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there, except where prohibited by mandatory consumer protection laws in your country of residence.
