Terms of Service

These Terms govern your use of the D—Type macOS application and the detype.app website (together, the “Service”), operated by D—Type (“we,” “us”). By installing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms.

1. License

Subject to these Terms and your active plan, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use D—Type on Macs you own or control. You may not resell, redistribute, sublicense, or reverse-engineer the app except where that restriction is prohibited by law.

2. Bring-your-own-key & AI providers

D—Type works with your own API key from a third-party AI provider (Anthropic or OpenAI). You are responsible for: obtaining that key, complying with the provider’s terms and usage policies, and paying the provider for your usage. We are not responsible for the providers’ availability, output, pricing, or changes to their services.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to use D—Type to:

• Break the law, infringe others’ rights, or violate your AI provider’s policies.
• Generate or disguise content intended to deceive, defraud, harass, or harm.
• Misrepresent AI-assisted work where disclosure is legally or contractually required (e.g. certain academic or regulated contexts). D—Type is a writing aid; how you use its output is your responsibility.

4. Your content

You retain all rights to the text you write and transform. We claim no ownership over it, and — as described in our Privacy Policy — we don’t receive or store it. You’re responsible for the content you create and publish.

5. Plans, billing & refunds

Paid plans (subscription or one-time license) are billed through our third-party payment processor. Subscriptions renew until cancelled; you can cancel anytime and keep access through the paid period. If you’re not happy, contact us within 14 days of purchase for a refund of your most recent payment. Specific terms shown at checkout govern that purchase.

A one-time license covers the current major version and all of its updates. A future major version may be offered as a separate paid upgrade, at our discretion.

6. The app is provided “as is”

We work hard to make D—Type reliable, but the Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We don’t warrant that AI output will be accurate, appropriate, or error-free — always review what you publish.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, D—Type and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, revenue, or profits, arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.

8. Termination

You can stop using the Service and delete the app at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you materially breach these Terms.

9. Changes

We may update these Terms; we’ll change the date above and, for material changes, note it on the site. Continued use after changes means you accept them.

10. Governing law & contact

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the operator is established, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Questions: hi@detype.app.

This is a plain-language template, not legal advice. Have counsel review and localize it (governing-law venue, consumer-rights carve-outs, refund windows) before you rely on it.
