Terms & Software License

1. Who this agreement is with

These terms are between you and COX AI CO. LLC, a Missouri limited liability company doing business as Nodetaker (we, us, or our). They govern your license to the Nodetaker founding-beta desktop app. Questions: hello@nodetakerapp.com.

You must be at least 18 and legally able to enter a contract, or have a parent or legal guardian obtain the license and supervise your use. If you buy for a business, you confirm that you have authority to accept these terms for it. Reviewing this page alone does not mean you have accepted these terms.

Lemon Squeezy is the merchant of record for paid purchases. Its buyer terms govern the payment transaction; these terms govern our software license and product commitments. Mandatory consumer rights always take priority.

2. What you are buying

The founding offer is a one-time US$7.77 purchase, plus any applicable tax displayed at checkout, for one user's license to the current Nodetaker founding beta for Mac. There is no subscription or automatic recurring charge. The app requires macOS 13 or newer on Apple Silicon or Intel. Windows is not included in this offer.

After successful payment, use the download button in your Lemon Squeezy purchase confirmation or receipt to open your download page on the Nodetaker website. We verify the purchase before giving access to the Mac installer. Keep your receipt and its personal download link for future installs. Contact us if delivery fails; your rights under the Refund Policy and applicable law remain available.

The license to versions supplied under this purchase does not expire merely because the beta ends, subject to the termination provisions below. This is not a promise that an older version will work on every future operating system.

3. Your license and your files

Once payment is completed, we grant you a non-exclusive license to install and use the supplied app for your personal or internal business purposes on compatible Macs you own or control. One purchase covers one user across those Macs. We retain ownership of the software; you retain all rights you hold in your notes, media, and exports. Creating or exporting files with Nodetaker does not give us ownership of them.

You may make backup copies of the app. You may not resell, sublicense, or distribute the app as your own product, remove proprietary notices, or use it unlawfully. Restrictions on transfer or reverse engineering apply only where legally permitted; statutory rights and third-party open-source licenses are not overridden. Open-source components remain governed by their own licenses.

You are responsible for having the rights needed to use material you import or share. You can access your local files independently of the app; we do not claim a right to delete your vault.

4. Early-access software and backups

Nodetaker is beta software under active development. It may contain bugs, crash, change features, or fail to save or handle data as expected. Data loss or corruption is possible. Start with a fresh vault or a copy, maintain independent backups, and check important exports before relying on them.

Do not rely on this beta as the sole copy of important information or for safety-critical tasks. Local-first storage is not a backup service. These precautions describe the beta's risks; they do not remove any remedy or protection that the law gives you.

5. Updates and support

Your purchase includes updates we release on the founding-beta track, at no additional charge. We intend to keep improving Nodetaker actively. We do not promise a particular release date, feature, or fixed update schedule.

Later major releases outside the founding-beta track may be offered separately and are not included unless we expressly say otherwise. This purchase is not a lifetime-updates plan. We will identify separately priced releases before asking you to buy them; you will not be charged automatically.

Email hello@nodetakerapp.com for help. We aim to respond and fix problems, but do not promise a particular response time. Any updates, support, or remedies required by applicable law remain available regardless of these limitations.

6. Refunds

Our Refund Policy forms part of these terms. For the founding beta, you may request a full refund within 14 calendar days of purchase for any reason, including after downloading or trying the app. Applicable consumer rights and Lemon Squeezy's authority to issue refunds are not limited by that voluntary window.

7. Warranty limitations

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE BETA IS PROVIDED AS IS AND AS AVAILABLE. EXCEPT FOR OUR EXPRESS COMMITMENTS AND RIGHTS THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE EXCLUDED, WE DISCLAIM IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not promise uninterrupted, error-free, or universally compatible operation.

These terms do not exclude mandatory guarantees, required security or conformity updates, remedies for faulty digital content, or any other rights that cannot be waived. Some jurisdictions restrict warranty exclusions; in those places these exclusions apply only to the extent allowed.

8. Limits of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses, including lost profits or business interruption. Our total liability arising from the app or this agreement is limited to the greater of US$100 or the amount you paid us or our merchant of record for Nodetaker.

These exclusions and limits do not apply to fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. They do not reduce refunds or other mandatory consumer remedies. If a limitation is unenforceable, the applicable law controls.

9. Ending the license

You may stop using the app at any time. A full refund ends the paid license for that purchase; stop using and remove the licensed app copies, unless you have another valid license or the law permits continued use. Keep your notes and exported files.

We may terminate a license for a material breach of these terms after written notice and a reasonable opportunity to correct it, except where immediate action is legally necessary. Termination does not give us access to or ownership of your local files, and does not remove rights or remedies that survive under the law.

10. Disputes and changes

Please contact hello@nodetakerapp.com if something goes wrong so we can try to resolve it. Contacting us is not a condition for exercising statutory rights or meeting a legal deadline.

Missouri law governs this agreement, excluding conflict-of-law rules, except that you retain the mandatory protections of the law that applies where you live. These terms do not require arbitration, waive class actions, or prevent you from using a court or regulator available under applicable law.

The version accepted for your purchase remains available through the dated policy link. We may offer revised terms for later purchases or releases, but posting changes alone will not retroactively remove the rights included with your existing purchase. A material change requiring agreement will be presented for acceptance. If one provision is unenforceable, the rest remains effective to the extent lawful.
