Terms of Service.

These terms govern your use of capturebear.com and the online services we operate for CaptureBear (together, the "Services"). The CaptureBear app itself is licensed separately under the End User License Agreement. By using the Services you agree to these terms; if you do not agree, please don't use the Services.

1. The Services

The Services are:

• the capturebear.com website;
• the optional screenshot Analysis service the app can call at your request; and
• license sales, delivery, and validation.

CaptureBear is deliberately local-first: the app works without the Services, apart from license validation and any optional features you choose to use.

2. Purchases, trials, and refunds

CaptureBear can be tried for free; a paid license removes the export watermark, as described in the EULA. Payments are processed by our payment provider; prices are shown before you buy and may change for future purchases. If a purchase isn't working out, email us within 14 days and we will refund it. Nothing in this section limits refund rights you have under applicable consumer law.

3. Acceptable use

When using the Services you agree not to:

• break the law, or submit content you have no right to submit;
• probe, disrupt, overload, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services;
• abuse the Analysis service, including automated bulk submission beyond normal in-app use; or
• resell or offer the Services to third parties as your own service.

4. Your content

Screenshots and files you process with CaptureBear remain yours. When you invoke the Analysis feature, you grant us a limited license to transmit and process the submitted image solely to provide that feature, including processing by the subprocessors listed at capturebear.com/legal/subprocessors. We do not store submitted images. You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to capture and process what appears in your screenshots, and for what you choose to upload to your own storage or share by link.

5. Our property

The Services, the CaptureBear app, and everything that makes them up — software, design, text, and branding — belong to us or our licensors. These terms don't grant you any rights to them except as expressly stated here or in the EULA.

6. Third-party services

Optional features rely on third parties: your chosen storage provider (your contract, not ours), our AI provider for Analysis, and our payment processor for purchases. We are not responsible for third-party services we do not control.

7. Disclaimer

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or uninterrupted availability. Analysis output is machine-generated and may be wrong; review it before relying on it.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of the Services. Our total liability for all claims relating to the Services is limited to the greater of fifty US dollars (USD 50) or the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations; where that is the case, they apply only to the extent permitted.

9. Indemnity

If your use of the Services in breach of these terms, or your content, causes a third party to bring a claim against us, you agree to cover the reasonable costs and damages arising from that claim.

10. Suspension and termination

You can stop using the Services at any time. We may suspend or terminate access to the Services where reasonably necessary — for example for abuse, non-payment, security, or legal reasons — and we will be proportionate about it. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9) survive.

11. Changes

We may update the Services over time, and may amend these terms. For material changes we will give reasonable advance notice on this page (and by email to license holders where we have one). Continuing to use the Services after a change takes effect means you accept the updated terms.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, you keep any protections granted by the mandatory laws of the place where you live, and nothing here deprives you of them.

13. Miscellaneous

If part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. You may not assign these terms without our consent; we may assign them as part of a corporate transaction. These terms, the EULA, the Privacy Policy, and (where applicable) the Data Processing Addendum are the entire agreement between us about the Services.
