Terms of Service

1.1 You accept these Terms by creating an account, starting a trial, paying for a plan, or using the service.

1.2 If you accept on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you have authority to bind it, and “you” means that organisation.

1.3 If you do not accept these Terms, do not use the account or cloud service. Reading and recovering your own work in the desktop application requires no account, and that use is governed by the EULA alone.

1.4 A separately signed agreement between you and us overrides these Terms to the extent of any conflict.

1.5 Operational status. The paid cloud editions described in this document are not in operation. GitAegis ships today for macOS with no cloud service running, so nothing described here is processing anyone's data yet. Two requests the application does make are outside that scope and are described where they belong: the update check, which carries no identifier, and the AI commit report, which runs on a signed-in account when the user asks for one. This document is published for review, not as a live notice.

2.1 You must be at least 16 years old, or older where your country sets a higher age for digital services.

2.2 You must give accurate registration details and keep them current.

2.3 You are responsible for the security of your credentials and for everything done under your account. Tell us at security@gitaegis.com as soon as you suspect unauthorised access.

2.4 One account is for one person. Accounts are not shared. Seat rules are in section 3.

2.5 Devices are bound to your account. You may register and remove devices in your account, subject to the device limits in section 3.

3.1 Current plans, prices, and what each includes are on the Pricing page, which forms part of these Terms.

3.2 Seats. A seat is for one named individual. You may reassign a seat to a different person when someone leaves, but you may not rotate a seat between people to serve more users than you have paid for. Team plans have a minimum seat count stated on the Pricing page.

3.3 Devices. Each seat may be active on the number of devices stated on the Pricing page. Device limits are enforced by the service.

3.4 Trials. Paid features may be trialled for the period stated on the Pricing page, without a payment card.

3.5 What happens when a trial ends. The account continues with no subscription. No charge is taken and no card is required. The capabilities a subscription pays for stop; your local repositories, local capsules, Flight Recorder history and Operation Journal remain on your disk, and opening them, reading them, undoing, restoring and exporting keep working (EULA section 4).

3.6 Adding seats mid-term is charged pro rata to your existing renewal date, so that all seats renew together.

4.1 Paid plans are billed annually in advance and renew automatically for a further term unless cancelled.

4.2 We email a renewal reminder before each renewal date, to the billing address on the account.

4.3 Cancel any time in your account. Cancellation stops the next renewal; it does not shorten the term you have already paid for. You keep paid features until the end of the current term.

4.4 Downgrading takes effect at the next renewal unless you ask for it sooner. Proration on downgrade is described in the Refund Policy.

4.5 Enterprise plans bought under an invoiced order form renew as set out in that order form.

4.6 Refund eligibility is set out in the Refund Policy.

5.1 Prices are stated on the Pricing page in US dollars, per user, per year, and exclude tax.

5.2 You are responsible for any VAT, GST, sales tax, or withholding that applies. Where we are required to collect tax, it is added at checkout based on your billing country.

5.3 Payments are processed by a third-party payment processor. We do not store full card numbers. Your use of that processor is subject to its own terms. No processor is named in this draft, because none has been engaged.

5.4 If a payment fails, we retry, and we may suspend paid features after a grace period. Suspension does not delete your data: see section 14. The length of that grace period is not set in this draft.

5.5 Price changes. We may change prices for future terms. We will give you notice before a renewal at a new price. If you do not accept the new price, cancel before renewal and the current term runs out at the price you paid. How much notice is not set in this draft.

5.6 Invoices are available in your account.

6.1 Your use of GitAegis must comply with the Acceptable Use Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

6.2 In summary, and without limiting that policy: no unlawful use, no malware distribution, no circumventing seat or licence enforcement, no automated abuse of the API, and no reselling without a written agreement.

6.3 Security research is welcome within the boundaries set out in the Vulnerability Disclosure Policy.

7.1 You own your code. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership of your source code, your repositories, your commits, your capsules, or any other content you create (“Customer Data”).

7.2 You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, transmit, and process Customer Data only to the extent necessary to provide the service to you, to keep it secure, and to comply with law. That licence ends when the data is deleted.

7.3 We do not use Customer Data to train models.

7.4 Capsule objects backed up to the cloud are encrypted on your device before upload. We hold ciphertext and do not hold the key material needed to read it. We therefore cannot read, produce, or restore the contents of your capsules on your behalf, and cannot do so for a third party either. See Privacy Policy §5.

7.5 You are responsible for having the rights to the Customer Data you put into the service, and for the lawful basis for any personal data it contains.

7.6 Where we process personal data on your behalf, the Data Processing Addendum applies and is incorporated into these Terms.

8.1 GitAegis integrates with third-party services including GitHub.

8.2 Those services are operated by others under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not control them and are not responsible for them.

8.3 When you connect a provider account, you authorise us to access it within the scopes you grant. You can revoke that access at any time, in GitAegis or at the provider.

8.4 If a provider changes or withdraws its API, the affected integration may change or stop working. We will tell you if that happens and, where a paid feature becomes materially unavailable for a sustained period, section 14.6 applies.

8.5 GitAegis requires Git 2.38.0 or newer, already installed on your machine. We never bundle, download, or install Git for you. Git is licensed to you by its own authors under its own terms.

9.1 GitAegis, its software, design, documentation, and the marks “GitAegis” and the shield mark, are owned by Fahid Digital Ventures LLC and its licensors.

9.2 These Terms grant you a right to use the service, not any ownership in it.

9.3 The desktop software licence, including its restrictions, is in the EULA.

9.4 Third-party open-source components and their licences are listed in the in-app THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES document, reachable from the application’s About panel.

9.5 You may use our name and marks to state factually that you use GitAegis. You may not use them to imply endorsement or partnership.

10.1 If you send us suggestions, bug reports, or feature ideas, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use them without obligation or attribution.

10.2 Do not send us anything you consider confidential or that you are not free to share. A support bundle you send is treated under the Privacy Policy, not as feedback.

11.1 GitAegis provides recovery capabilities. It does not guarantee the recovery of all work. No client can, and we will not claim otherwise.

11.2 The recoverability boundary applies, and it is stated exactly:

11.3 Specific limits within that boundary, stated here rather than in a footnote: rebase state is not restored from a capsule; Git configuration is not restored from a capsule and is retained as evidence only; .gitattributes content filters cannot be wholesale disabled; and bisect and a conflicted stash apply have no generic resume.

11.4 GitAegis is not a backup product and is not a substitute for backups. It captures state before operations it performs and records what it observes. It does not protect against disk failure, device loss, theft, ransomware, filesystem corruption, accidental deletion of the repository itself, or destructive actions taken outside GitAegis that leave no recoverable reference. Keep independent backups and keep your work pushed to a remote.

11.5 GitAegis never runs gc, prune, or reflog expiry: those operations are not implemented. But other tools on your machine, and your Git host, may run them, and that can remove objects GitAegis would otherwise have found.

11.6 Except as expressly stated in these Terms, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, the service and the software are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, or non-infringement.

11.7 We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any defect will be corrected.

11.8 Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. Where that is so, the exclusions in this section apply only to the extent permitted, and your statutory consumer rights are not affected.

12.1 To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost goodwill, or lost or corrupted data or code, however caused and on any theory of liability, even if advised of the possibility.

12.2 To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the service is limited to the fees you paid us for the service in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim.

12.3 A monetary floor beneath that cap, and a separate cap for use without a subscription where no fee is paid, are figures this draft does not state. They are settled with counsel before these Terms take effect.

12.4 Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

12.5 These limits apply in aggregate across all claims and are an essential part of the bargain between us. The price of the service reflects them.

12.6 Any claim must be brought within one year after the claim arises, to the extent permitted by law.

13.1 You will defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless against claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from (a) your Customer Data, (b) your breach of these Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy, or (c) your violation of law or of a third party’s rights.

13.2 We will tell you promptly of any claim, give you control of the defence (subject to our right to participate with our own counsel at our expense), and cooperate reasonably. You may not settle in a way that imposes an obligation or admission on us without our written consent.

14.1 You may terminate at any time by cancelling your plan and closing your account.

14.2 We may suspend access, in whole or in part, where we reasonably believe there is a security risk, unlawful activity, a breach of the Acceptable Use Policy, or unpaid fees after the grace period in section 5.4.

14.3 Where practicable we will give notice before suspension and a chance to fix the problem. Where the risk is immediate we may suspend first and tell you straight after.

14.4 We may terminate for material breach that is not cured within 30 days of written notice, or immediately for the conduct described in the Acceptable Use Policy as grounds for immediate termination.

14.5 After termination or closure, you have a window in which to export your data, after which data is deleted on the schedule in Privacy Policy §7. Encrypted capsule objects are deleted whole; we cannot decrypt them for you first. The length of that window is not set in this draft.

14.6 If we discontinue the paid service entirely, or a material paid capability becomes permanently unavailable, we will give notice and refund the unused portion of your prepaid term. How much notice is not set in this draft.

14.7 Termination does not affect fees already due. Sections 7.1, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16 and 18 survive termination.

15.1 The software and service are subject to export control and sanctions laws, including those of the United States.

15.2 You confirm that you are not located in, ordinarily resident in, or organised under the laws of a country or region subject to comprehensive sanctions, and that you are not on any restricted party list maintained by the US government or another applicable authority.

15.3 You will not export, re-export, or make the software available to any person or destination prohibited by those laws, and you will not use it for any prohibited end use.

15.4 We may refuse service or terminate an account where we reasonably believe these requirements are not met.

16.1 The governing law, the arbitral institution, and the seat and forum for disputes are not stated in this draft. They are three of the values counsel settles before these Terms take effect, and a dispute-resolution clause is not something to approximate. Until they are settled, this section states only what does not depend on them.

16.2 Talk to us first. Before starting formal proceedings, send a written description of the dispute to support@gitaegis.com. Both parties will try in good faith to resolve it within 30 days.

16.3 The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

16.4 Exceptions. Either party may bring a claim in small claims court where it qualifies, and either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property or confidential information.

16.5 No class actions. Disputes will be brought in an individual capacity only, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or representative proceeding, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

16.6 Where you are a consumer and mandatory law gives you the right to bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence, or gives you the protection of the law of that country, this section does not remove that right.

17.1 We may update these Terms. For material changes we will give notice by email to account holders and by a notice on the site. How much notice is not set in this draft.

17.2 Changes apply from the stated effective date. Continuing to use the service after that date means you accept them.

17.3 If you do not accept a material change, cancel before it takes effect. Where you have prepaid for a term, we will refund the unused portion.

17.4 Every version carries an effective date. Previous versions are available on request from support@gitaegis.com.

18.1 Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the EULA, the Acceptable Use Policy, the Privacy Policy, the Refund Policy, the DPA where applicable, and the Pricing page, are the entire agreement between us on this subject and replace any prior understanding.

18.2 Severability. If a provision is held unenforceable, it is modified to the minimum extent needed to make it enforceable, and the rest stands.

18.3 No waiver. Not enforcing a provision is not a waiver of it.

18.4 Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent, except to a successor of your business. We may assign them to an affiliate or a successor on notice to you.

18.5 Force majeure. Neither party is liable for failure to perform due to events beyond its reasonable control, excluding payment obligations.

18.6 Notices. We give notice by email to the address on your account or by a notice in the application. You give notice to support@gitaegis.com. A postal address for legal notices is not published in this draft.

18.7 No third-party beneficiaries, except that our affiliates and licensors may enforce sections 9, 11 and 12.

18.8 Support. Support is provided by email. Response targets by plan are on the Support page. The hours support answers in are not stated in this draft.
