1. License grant
In these terms, Software means the acquired VolumeKeys version, its accompanying documentation and any updates supplied for that version under these terms, except for a third-party component governed by separate terms. A Consumer is a natural person acting for purposes outside that person's trade, business, craft or profession. A Business Customer is any other licensee.
These license terms are an agreement between Studiomood Ltd as licensor and the person or organization that acquires the Software as licensee. They apply where they are validly incorporated into the purchase or download, or are made available before installation or first use in circumstances that create a binding license agreement under applicable law. Supplying a copy after an acquisition does not by itself impose terms retroactively. Any product description, order page or product-specific license term accepted for the same product prevails over these general terms to the extent of a direct conflict. Mandatory rights of Consumers and other rights that cannot lawfully be excluded remain unaffected.
If you accept these terms for an organization, you confirm that you are authorized to bind it. If applicable law requires consent from a parent, guardian or other legal representative for you to enter into this license, the license is valid only with that consent. Mandatory protections relating to legal capacity or minors remain unaffected.
Subject to payment of the applicable price, if any, and compliance with these terms, Studiomood Ltd grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide license for an unlimited period to install and use the acquired Software version for private or commercial purposes on one Mac at a time. An organization may move the license internally to another user or Mac only after the previous installation has been deactivated.
You may make the backup copies you need to use the Software safely. A backup copy must not run as a second active installation.
Ownership of the software itself is not transferred. The license is not a subscription and has no recurring VolumeKeys fee unless a different product is expressly purchased.
2. Trial license
The trial license is temporary, limited to the stated trial period and intended once per eligible Mac installation. A trial copy may be used only to evaluate the Software within the limitations disclosed for that copy. Trial controls may not be bypassed or reset by deleting local files, reinstalling or manipulating device identity.
This paragraph applies only where a copy is expressly identified before delivery as a beta, pre-release or not-for-resale (NFR) copy. A beta or pre-release copy may be incomplete, may contain errors and must not be relied on for live performance, production, safety-critical use or the only copy of important data. We do not promise that a beta or pre-release version will be released commercially. An NFR or review copy is licensed to the named recipient for evaluation, demonstration or independent review and may not be sold, sublicensed or transferred except where a right cannot lawfully be excluded. Supplying a review copy does not require favorable coverage and does not restrict genuine editorial opinion. Except for characteristics expressly promised for the special copy and obligations imposed by mandatory law, we do not promise that a special copy will have the availability, completeness, functionality or support of the purchased full version.
3. Moving or passing on your license
You may move a license to another Mac by deactivating the current installation and activating the replacement. Only one installation may remain active at a time.
If the license is still active on another Mac, VolumeKeys may offer to transfer it to the Mac you are using, for example when the previous Mac was lost, replaced or reset. A license can be transferred this way up to three times in any 12 months. Moving it by deactivating the previous installation does not count toward this limit. The transfer deactivates the previous installation, which loses the license the next time it connects to the licensing service. You must not continue to use it. For a further transfer, contact support@volumekeys.app with purchase information, as described under License keys below. Because a transfer needs only the license key, keep the key confidential.
Deactivation or uninstall is designed to release the activation for another Mac where supported. It is not by itself a cancellation, refund request, withdrawal notice or proof that a refund is owed.
You may also pass a purchased license as a whole to another person. You must then deactivate it, delete your copies and stop using VolumeKeys. The new owner takes over these terms. A license cannot be split. This does not apply to the trial, or to a license that was fully refunded, reversed or charged back. You must give the new owner these license terms and any files, updates and license credentials that may lawfully be transferred. The transfer must not result in simultaneous use, continued access by you or disclosure of credentials to anyone other than the new owner. We may request information reasonably necessary to verify compliance, but no request or technical measure will be used to obstruct a transfer right that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Studiomood Ltd may transfer this agreement and the related licensor obligations to a legal successor in connection with a merger, reorganization, acquisition or sale of the relevant business or assets, provided that the successor assumes those obligations and the transfer does not reduce your contractual or mandatory rights. Any mandatory right to notice, consent, objection or termination remains unaffected.
License keys. You must take reasonable steps to keep your license key confidential and must not make it available beyond the use permitted by this license. If a license key is lost, damaged or no longer accessible, or the old Mac is unavailable, contact support@volumekeys.app with purchase information. Where the legitimate entitlement can reasonably be verified and there is no credible evidence that the request is fraudulent or seeks an additional key for simultaneous use, we will provide a reasonable reset or replacement without charge. We may deactivate the replaced key to prevent simultaneous or unauthorized use.
If we have credible evidence that a license key has been publicly exposed, copied, shared or used materially beyond this license, we may temporarily suspend that key as a proportionate security measure. Unless immediate action is reasonably necessary to limit ongoing misuse, we will first notify you using the available contact details and provide a reasonable opportunity to explain or cure the issue. After verifying the legitimate entitlement, we will promptly restore access or issue a replacement that preserves the authorized use. A suspension will not be applied to unrelated products or acquisitions, used to obstruct a lawful transfer under this section, or treated as termination except under section 7. Mandatory remedies remain unaffected. This paragraph does not apply where a license ends because a purchase was fully refunded, withdrawn, reversed or charged back.
4. Restrictions
Except for a move under section 1, a permitted transfer under section 3 or another right that cannot lawfully be excluded, you may not share, resell, rent, lend, sublicense, publish, distribute or otherwise make the Software or a license key available to a third party, whether free of charge or for payment. You may not remove or alter copyright notices, license keys or other identifying marks. You may not run more active installations than one license allows, evade technical restrictions, attack the licensing service or use VolumeKeys to violate the law or third-party rights.
You may not use VolumeKeys as a medical, life-support, emergency, alarm, hearing-protection or other safety-critical system, as the sole control for an application in which audio failure could cause injury or property damage, or contrary to the intended-use and responsible-listening requirements in the Terms of Sale and Use.
You may not decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer the Software except to the extent expressly permitted by mandatory law, including applicable rights relating to backup, observation, study, testing and interoperability. Where the law entitles you to obtain interoperability information from us, you may request it at info@volumekeys.app; making such a request is not a condition where mandatory law provides otherwise.
5. Ownership
Studiomood Ltd and its licensors retain all intellectual-property rights in VolumeKeys, its code, visual identity and documentation that are not expressly granted. Third-party or open-source components are governed by their applicable license terms. Where those terms require an attribution, license text, source-code offer or other notice, the required material is supplied with the Software or at the location identified in its documentation. Those terms prevail for the relevant component where required, and nothing in these terms restricts a right granted under them.
Apple, macOS and third-party hardware marks belong to their respective owners and are used solely to identify external systems or setups we documented ourselves. Unless expressly stated, Studiomood Ltd is not affiliated with, endorsed, sponsored or authorized by those companies.
6. Updates
An update may replace or modify earlier software. These terms apply to updates supplied for the acquired version. Section 9 of the Terms of Sale and Use covers updates, support and online services. Mandatory rights to conformity and necessary updates are not limited.
7. Termination
The license to the acquired version is granted for an unlimited period. We may terminate it by written notice, including by email, if you materially breach these terms and do not cure the breach within 14 days after receiving notice. A cure period is not required where the breach cannot reasonably be cured, including deliberate unauthorized publication or distribution of the Software or a license key. The license also ends if the purchase is fully refunded, withdrawn, reversed or charged back, or if it is identified as fraudulent.
After termination you must stop using the Software and delete all copies, except for any copy that mandatory law entitles you to retain. Statutory rights and provisions intended to survive termination remain unaffected.
8. Law and complete terms
The governing-law, language, version and liability provisions in the Terms of Sale and Use apply. These terms, the Terms of Sale and Use, the applicable product description or order page and any product-specific license terms validly incorporated for the same Software form the entire license agreement between you and Studiomood Ltd. This does not exclude pre-contractual information that applicable law makes part of the agreement, a separately agreed written commitment, or liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
