CopyCharm Terms of Use

These Terms apply to all users of CopyCharm.

In addition to these Terms, we may publish separate rules, notices, guidelines, pricing terms, security notes, privacy notices, or other conditions related to CopyCharm. These additional terms form part of these Terms.

If any additional terms conflict with these Terms, the additional terms will prevail for the subject matter they cover.

We may update these Terms from time to time when necessary, including to reflect changes to CopyCharm, applicable laws, security requirements, business operations, pricing, or third-party services.

For material changes, we will provide reasonable advance notice by email, in-app notification, website notice, or another appropriate method. Updated Terms will become effective on the effective date stated in the notice or, if no date is stated, when posted.

If you continue to use CopyCharm after updated Terms become effective, you will be deemed to have accepted the updated Terms. If you do not accept material changes, you may stop using CopyCharm and, where applicable and required by law or applicable purchase terms, request cancellation or a refund for unused paid periods.

CopyCharm is a local-first desktop application designed to help users capture, organize, search, and reuse copied text, saved prompts, and work context.

By default, CopyCharm is intended to store clipboard history and related data locally on the user’s device.

AI Access is optional. When AI Access is enabled, CopyCharm syncs only the specific items a user has designated for AI Access, such as Saved Prompts and Favorite Clips. General clipboard history is not synced by default as part of the standard AI Access mode.

CopyCharm is not a password manager, secrets manager, legal archive, medical record system, financial record system, regulated data storage system, or compliance archiving system.

Users are responsible for deciding what information they copy, store, save, favorite, sync, export, or make available through CopyCharm.

CopyCharm may evolve over time. Features may be added, changed, limited, renamed, suspended, or removed in accordance with these Terms.

Some features of CopyCharm may require an account, license key, subscription, purchase, device token, or other access credentials.

Users must provide accurate and current information when registering, purchasing, activating, or using CopyCharm.

Users must not provide false, misleading, unauthorized, or third-party information when using CopyCharm.

If the user is a minor or otherwise lacks full legal capacity, the user must obtain consent from a parent, guardian, or legal representative before using CopyCharm.

We may refuse, suspend, restrict, or terminate access if we determine that a user has violated these Terms, provided false information, abused the Service, failed to pay applicable fees, created security risk, or otherwise used CopyCharm improperly.

Users are responsible for keeping license keys, account credentials, device tokens, and access tokens secure.

Users must not share, sell, transfer, sublicense, lease, publish, or distribute their license key, account, access token, device token, or paid access rights unless expressly permitted by us.

Paid Features, subscriptions, and software licenses are provided at the prices displayed on the Website, checkout page, application, or relevant purchase screen.

Paid Features and software licenses may be sold and distributed by our Merchant of Record, Lemon Squeezy, or another merchant of record designated by us. In such cases, financial transactions, invoicing, taxes, chargebacks, and initial refund handling may be subject to the Merchant of Record’s terms, conditions, and privacy policy.

Users must comply with the terms, policies, and procedures of the applicable Merchant of Record, payment provider, licensing provider, or app store.

Unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase, fees are generally non-refundable, except where required by applicable law or applicable purchase terms. If you are located in a jurisdiction that grants statutory refund, cancellation, or withdrawal rights, those rights are not affected by this clause.

Subscriptions may automatically renew unless cancelled according to the procedures provided by the applicable Merchant of Record, payment provider, app store, or by us.

Users are responsible for cancelling subscriptions before renewal if they do not wish to continue the paid service.

We may change pricing, plans, features, billing methods, free trials, and paid access terms from time to time. Changes will apply according to the notice or terms provided at the time of change.

If we permanently discontinue a paid feature or the Service, we will provide reasonable notice where practicable and, where required by applicable law or applicable purchase terms, provide an appropriate refund, credit, or alternative remedy for unused paid periods.

Users are solely responsible for the Content they copy, store, save, favorite, sync, import, export, or otherwise process using CopyCharm.

Because CopyCharm captures clipboard data locally to function, it may incidentally capture sensitive information depending on what the user copies.

Users are responsible for managing their clipboard history and are encouraged to use CopyCharm’s available controls, such as pause, deletion, exclusion, ignore list, filtering, or similar features, where available, to reduce the risk of retaining sensitive information.

Clipboard history may capture any text copied on a user’s device. Users should be aware that sensitive information, including credentials, tokens, financial data, personal data, customer information, business information, or other confidential information, may be retained if copied.

Users who copy, store, or sync business information should ensure they have appropriate authorization to do so.

Users are responsible for managing their own device security, including device access, operating system user permissions, malware protection, backups, local disk encryption or OS-level drive encryption such as BitLocker, and access by other users of the same device.

We are not responsible for loss, disclosure, theft, corruption, deletion, or misuse of Local Data caused by device loss, malware, unauthorized access to the user’s device, user error, third-party software, operating system issues, or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.

CopyCharm may provide deletion, filtering, pause, exclusion, or privacy-related features, but we do not guarantee that such features will prevent all sensitive information from being captured, stored, displayed, exported, or synced.

AI Access is an optional feature that may allow selected CopyCharm data to be synced to cloud systems operated or used by us.

AI Access is intended to make selected saved prompts, favorite clips, or other selected items available for search, retrieval, synchronization, or AI-related workflows.

CopyCharm does not sync all clipboard history by default as part of the standard AI Access mode.

When AI Access is enabled, CopyCharm syncs only the specific items a user has designated, such as Saved Prompts and Favorite Clips. General clipboard history is not synced by default as part of the standard AI Access mode.

The scope of AI Access may depend on the user’s settings, plan, software version, and feature availability.

Users are responsible for deciding what data to make available through AI Access.

Synced Data may be stored and processed using cloud systems and third-party service providers, as further described in our Privacy Policy.

Synced AI Access data is encrypted using AES-256-GCM application-layer encryption. If we materially change our encryption approach, we will update our security documentation or Privacy Policy.

CopyCharm servers may decrypt selected AI Access items when necessary to provide search, fetch, retrieval, synchronization, support, security, abuse prevention, troubleshooting, or other Service-related functionality.

AI Access is not end-to-end encrypted and is not a zero-knowledge service.

We do not use user Content, Local Data, or Synced Data to train proprietary machine learning models, and we do not permit third-party AI systems to use user Content, Local Data, or Synced Data for model training without the user’s explicit opt-in consent.

We do not guarantee that AI Access will be uninterrupted, error-free, permanently available, or compatible with every AI platform, connector, model, API, or integration.

We may limit, suspend, modify, or discontinue AI Access features for security, operational, product, legal, or business reasons.

Users may be provided with controls to delete or clear Synced Data. Availability and scope of such controls may vary by version or plan.

CopyCharm may interact with or depend on Third-Party Services, including merchants of record, payment processors, licensing systems, cloud hosting providers, AI platforms, operating systems, browsers, app stores, APIs, analytics services, and other external services.

Third-Party Services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

We are not responsible for the availability, performance, security, accuracy, pricing, policy changes, compliance, output, or conduct of Third-Party Services.

If a Third-Party Service changes, suspends, restricts, or terminates access, some CopyCharm features may stop working, change, or become unavailable.

Users are responsible for complying with the terms of any Third-Party Services they use in connection with CopyCharm.

Users must not engage in any of the following acts:

Providing benefits to, or engaging in transactions with, organized crime groups, antisocial forces, or similar groups as defined under applicable Japanese law.

Any other act that we reasonably determine to be inappropriate.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate a user’s access to all or part of CopyCharm if we reasonably determine that the user has violated these Terms, failed to pay fees, created security risk, abused the Service, infringed third-party rights, or otherwise used the Service improperly.

We may also suspend or restrict access when necessary for security, maintenance, legal compliance, fraud prevention, technical protection, or operational reasons.

We are not liable for damages arising from suspension, restriction, or termination of access, except to the extent caused by our intentional misconduct or gross negligence, or where liability cannot be excluded under applicable law.

Upon termination, users may lose access to paid features, cloud features, AI Access data, synced items, account data, or other Service-related data.

Users remain responsible for fees incurred before termination.

Users may stop using CopyCharm at any time. If the user has a subscription, the user must cancel it through the applicable Merchant of Record, payment provider, app store, or other purchase channel.

We may modify, update, suspend, discontinue, or terminate all or part of CopyCharm at any time.

All rights, title, and interest in and to CopyCharm, including software, design, trademarks, logos, text, graphics, interfaces, workflows, documentation, and other materials, belong to the Company or its licensors.

We do not use user Content, Local Data, or Synced Data for model training, AI improvement, or analytics purposes unless the user has provided explicit opt-in consent or the data has been aggregated or de-identified in a way that does not identify the user or reveal user Content, as described in our Privacy Policy.

We do not claim ownership of users’ Content.

We may remove, restrict, or delete Content if we reasonably determine that it violates these Terms, applicable law, third-party rights, security requirements, or operational policies.

We handle personal information and related data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Users should review the Privacy Policy to understand how we collect, use, store, protect, disclose, transfer, and delete information.

The Privacy Policy will describe matters such as categories of data collected, purposes of processing, retention periods, user rights, analytics, cookies, cloud service providers, international transfers, and privacy contact methods.

In case of conflict between these Terms and the Privacy Policy regarding the handling of personal information, the Privacy Policy will govern to the extent of that conflict.

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the Service.

No software, cloud service, encryption method, device, network, or security measure is completely secure.

Users must promptly notify us if they suspect unauthorized access, misuse, security vulnerabilities, or exposure of sensitive information related to CopyCharm.
