Terms of Use
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Snap2Text macOS application (the “App”) and the Snap2Text marketing and support website (the “Site”). By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the App or Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App or Site.
1. Relationship to Apple’s license
If you obtained the App from the Mac App Store, your license to use the App is also subject to Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the “Apple Standard EULA”), available from Apple, unless AppVantix has uploaded a custom EULA in App Store Connect. Where these Terms and the Apple Standard EULA conflict regarding your license to the App, the Apple Standard EULA controls for App Store distribution. These Terms also cover the Site and matters not addressed by Apple’s EULA (for example website use, disclaimers, and contact).
2. Eligibility
You must be able to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction. The App is not directed to children under 13. If you are between 13 and the age of majority where you live, you may use the App only with a parent or guardian’s consent where required by law.
3. License to the App
Subject to these Terms and (if applicable) Apple’s Standard EULA, AppVantix grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on Apple-branded Mac products that you own or control, solely for your personal or internal business use.
You may not:
- Copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, or sublicense the App except as expressly allowed by Apple’s rules or written permission from AppVantix
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by law
- Remove proprietary notices or circumvent technical protections
- Use the App to violate law, infringe others’ rights, or capture content you are not authorized to process
4. Purchases, pricing, and refunds
Paid features are sold as a one-time Mac App Store purchase (currently advertised as $9.99 USD; actual price may vary by region and Apple’s storefront). Payment, taxes, billing, family sharing (if enabled by Apple), and refunds for App Store purchases are handled by Apple under Apple’s terms. AppVantix does not process your payment card directly for Mac App Store purchases.
5. Nature of the service
Snap2Text is a local utility that uses on-device Apple Vision OCR (and related on-device features) to recognize text and codes from regions you capture. Recognition quality depends on image quality, fonts, language, and macOS Vision capabilities. OCR output may be incomplete or incorrect. You are solely responsible for reviewing results before relying on them for legal, medical, financial, security, or other critical purposes.
6. Permissions and your content
The App requires Screen Recording permission to capture the region you select, and Accessibility permission for the global hotkey. You control these permissions in macOS System Settings. You retain ownership of screenshots and text you capture. By using the App, you represent that you have the right to capture and process that content. History and preferences are stored locally on your Mac as described in our Privacy Policy.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to use the App or Site to:
- Violate any applicable law or third-party right
- Attempt unauthorized access to systems or data
- Interfere with or disrupt the Site
- Misrepresent affiliation with AppVantix or Snap2Text
- Scrape the Site in a way that imposes unreasonable load, except ordinary search-engine indexing
8. Website
The Site provides product information, support materials, and legal notices. Content may change without notice. Marketing descriptions are informational; the App as shipped and App Store listing control feature availability. Third-party links (including Apple’s App Store) are provided for convenience; we do not control third-party sites.
9. Intellectual property
Snap2Text, the Site, branding, and related materials are owned by AppVantix LLC or its licensors. Open-source components remain under their respective licenses (see License). No rights are granted except as expressly stated.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP AND SITE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT OCR RESULTS WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT THE APP OR SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR SECURE.
11. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, APPVANTIX LLC AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR BUSINESS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE APP OR SITE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS OR THE APP OR SITE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO APPLE FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) USD $9.99.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those places, liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.
12. Indemnity
You will defend and indemnify AppVantix LLC against claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your misuse of the App or Site, your content, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.
13. Privacy
Our practices are described in the Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference.
14. Changes
We may update these Terms by posting a revised version on the Site with a new “Last updated” date. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance, except where applicable law requires additional notice or consent.
15. Termination
Your license ends if you breach these Terms or Apple’s applicable terms, or if you delete the App. Sections that by nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations, and indemnity) survive termination.
16. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which AppVantix LLC is organized, excluding conflict-of-law rules, except that (a) consumers may retain mandatory protections of their place of residence, and (b) App Store–related disputes may also be subject to Apple’s terms and applicable Apple platform rules. Courts in that state of organization shall have exclusive jurisdiction for disputes arising from these Terms, except where prohibited by consumer-protection law.
17. Miscellaneous
These Terms are the entire agreement between you and AppVantix regarding the Site and, together with Apple’s Standard EULA (or any custom App Store EULA), the App. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
