Scalæon

Terms of Service

Last updated: October 10, 2026

These terms govern your use of Scalaeon products and the related websites, documentation, downloads, updates, and support provided by Scalæon (“we,” “us,” or “our”). References to particular features apply to products that include those features. Each license covers the product identified in the applicable offer; it does not grant access to every Scalaeon product.

Purchases are also subject to the terms presented by Lemon Squeezy at checkout. Information handling is described separately in our Privacy Policy.

1. Scalaeon products

Scalaeon products are software tools for personal and professional use. Each product’s features and system requirements are described on its product page and in its documentation. File-system workspace features help you inspect, organize, and explore references to files across folders and drives.

Desktop file processing takes place locally. In products with domain organization, placing materials in domains records organization within the app; it does not move, rename, or edit your original files. These workspace features do not provide cloud storage or a backup service.

Analysis and routing results are proposals, not guarantees about the meaning, ownership, or appropriate placement of a file. You remain in control of confirmed placements and any permissions you grant to external agents.

2. Software license

Subject to these terms and the license you obtain, Scalæon grants you a non-exclusive license to install and use the Scalaeon product covered by that license for your own personal or business purposes.

The following describes our current license offers. The offer for the particular product at the time you obtain it determines the applicable price, duration, computer limit, and supported platforms.

Lifetime license

Where offered, the current lifetime license is a one-time purchase for use on up to three computers across supported Mac and Windows versions. It is not a subscription and does not require recurring payments to continue using the licensed software.

The price, applicable taxes, and any offer-specific conditions are those presented at checkout. The current advertised base price is US$30.

A lifetime license provides an ongoing right to use the licensed software. It does not promise compatibility with every future operating system, indefinite operation of every online service, or access to every separate product Scalæon might release.

Trial and feedback-program licenses

Where offered, the current free trial provides seven days on one computer, beginning with successful activation. No payment card is required, and the trial does not automatically become a paid subscription.

A separately offered feedback-program license provides 30 days on one computer. That program runs alongside the released product; participation does not make other Scalaeon product licenses beta licenses.

Temporary licenses expire according to their activation period. Reinstalling the product or obtaining another temporary key does not necessarily restart that period. Expiry does not delete your original files or saved workspaces.

3. Activation and license keys

For Scalaeon products that use license-key activation, activation requires an internet connection and a valid license key. The app uses Lemon Squeezy to validate the key and register the computer against the license’s activation limit.

After activation, routine license checks operate locally. You do not need to remain continuously connected to use the activated app.

Keep your key available for recovery and do not publish it or share it in a way that exceeds your license. A license permitting multiple computers does not permit selling or publicly distributing the key.

The local activation record is stored separately from your workspaces and can survive reinstallation. If you need help recovering access or resolving an activation-limit issue, contact us rather than attempting to bypass the licensing controls.

4. Purchases, payments, and refunds

Lemon Squeezy acts as merchant of record for purchases. It processes payment, applicable taxes, receipts, and refunds under the Lemon Squeezy Buyer Terms.

You are responsible for providing accurate checkout information, including an email address where your receipt and license key can be delivered. Payment details are handled by Lemon Squeezy and its payment providers.

To request a refund or resolve a purchase problem, contact contact@scalaeon.com with your order reference, or use the support route associated with your Lemon Squeezy receipt. Refunds are handled through Lemon Squeezy under the applicable checkout terms and consumer law.

These terms do not create a separate fixed refund window or remove any statutory cancellation, refund, repair, replacement, or other remedy. Any legally effective restriction on withdrawal after digital delivery must meet the requirements of the law that applies to your purchase.

If a purchase is fully refunded or reversed, the associated paid license no longer authorizes continued paid use, unless we expressly agree otherwise.

5. Your files and workspace information

You retain ownership of your files, notes, workspace information, and other material you bring into or create with Scalaeon products. Using Scalaeon products does not transfer those rights to Scalæon.

You are responsible for having the right to access and process the materials you select and for maintaining backups appropriate to your needs.

In Scalaeon products with domain organization, those placements leave original files in place. Actions performed in another application, a cloud synchronization service, or an independently authorized agent are governed by that tool’s behavior and your permissions.

Scalæon does not receive your source-file contents through the normal local file processing of Scalaeon products. If you choose to email material to support, that submission is handled as described in the Privacy Policy.

6. Updates

Updater-enabled Scalaeon products check for available updates and let you check manually. An availability check does not authorize installation.

When an update is available, you can choose whether to download it and then install and restart. You can dismiss the offer and continue using your current version, subject to its existing license and compatibility.

The updater verifies update packages using the app’s trusted signing key. If normal updating cannot safely proceed, we may provide instructions for installing a replacement build manually.

Save your work before installation. The update flow is designed to preserve workspace continuity, but keeping a separate backup remains advisable.

Declining an update does not convert a lifetime license into a subscription or, by itself, terminate the license. Older versions may nevertheless have defects, security limitations, or compatibility issues that are addressed only in a later release.

7. Third-party services and optional integrations

Checkout, licensing, hosting, and delivery depend on third-party services, including Lemon Squeezy and Cloudflare. Operating-system components and other applications may also have their own terms.

Where a product offers optional external-agent connections, those connections are under your control. Review the agent’s permissions and data practices before enabling it. An agent that uses an online provider may transmit information that it receives from the app, even though the app’s own file processing is local.

We are responsible for our own obligations under these terms. We cannot promise uninterrupted availability of independently operated services or control changes made by their providers.

8. Acceptable use

You may use Scalaeon products for lawful personal and professional work. You must not:

These restrictions do not prohibit activities that applicable law expressly allows, including protected interoperability work, nor do they override rights granted by open-source licenses.

9. Software and intellectual property

Scalæon and its licensors retain rights in the software, branding, and documentation of Scalaeon products, except for rights expressly granted to you.

Third-party and open-source components remain subject to their respective licenses and notices. Where such a license grants you additional rights in a component, those rights are preserved.

Your ownership of your own materials is unaffected. Suggestions or feedback you send do not transfer ownership of your files or workspace to Scalæon.

10. Support, warranties, and limitations

Support is available at contact@scalaeon.com. No guaranteed response time or service-level commitment is included unless separately agreed.

Analysis provided by Scalaeon products may be incomplete or inaccurate. You should review proposals and verify results important to your work. We do not guarantee that the software will be error-free, uninterrupted, or compatible with every file format, device, application, or future operating-system release.

Except for express commitments and rights that cannot legally be excluded, the software and related services are provided as available, without additional implied warranties to the extent permitted by law.

Nothing in these terms removes a consumer’s mandatory rights concerning digital content or software, including applicable requirements relating to quality, description, fitness for purpose, and remedies.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Scalæon will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to Scalaeon products or the related websites, documentation, downloads, updates, or support. This limitation applies regardless of the legal basis of the claim and even if Scalæon has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, or restricts your mandatory statutory rights.

12. Ending use or a license

You may stop using Scalaeon products at any time. Uninstalling a product does not automatically delete separately saved workspaces or secure license records, where present.

Temporary licenses end when their stated period expires. A paid license may also end following a full refund or reversal, or a material breach of these terms, including serious license abuse or unlawful interference with our services. Where practical and appropriate, we will give notice and an opportunity to resolve a breach before ending the license.

Termination affects permission to use the licensed software; it does not transfer ownership of your files or workspaces to Scalæon or authorize us to erase them remotely. Terms that naturally need to continue, including ownership and applicable liability provisions, survive termination.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms to reflect changes to Scalaeon products, services, or legal requirements. Revised terms will carry an updated date, with additional notice or agreement where required by law.

Changes will not retroactively convert an existing lifetime purchase into a subscription or remove rights attached to that purchase without your agreement.

Applicable mandatory consumer law continues to govern your rights. Nothing here requires you to give up protections or access to courts that the law makes available to you.
