Terms of service

1. About these terms

These terms (the Terms) govern your use of the DocuCommit website at docucommit.se, the live demo at demo.docucommit.se, and any associated downloads or services we make available (together, the Service).

The Service is provided by Ali Zreim, Malmö, Sweden ("we", "us", "our").

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

Your use of the DocuCommit desktop editor and self-hosted server, and any subscription or licence you purchase, is additionally governed by the End-User License Agreement (EULA), which you accept at checkout and again when you activate the software. Where the EULA and these Terms conflict for that licensed software, the EULA controls.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old, or the legal age of digital consent in your jurisdiction, to use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organisation, you confirm that you have the authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.

3. The live demo

The demo at demo.docucommit.se is provided for evaluation purposes only. You agree that:

• The demo is provided "as is" and may be reset, modified, or taken offline at any time without notice.
• The demo is read-only. Account registration, login, and content editing are disabled. It exists for evaluation only.
• We do not guarantee any specific uptime, performance, or feature availability for the demo.
• We may impose rate limits or other reasonable usage limits to protect the shared environment.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service in any way that violates applicable law;
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service, other users' data, or our infrastructure;
• Interfere with, disrupt, overload, or attack the Service (including denial-of-service or automated scraping at scale);
• Upload or transmit malware, illegal content, or content that infringes the rights of others;
• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from our software except to the extent expressly permitted by law;
• Use the Service to harass, defame, or harm others.

5. Intellectual property

The Service, including the DocuCommit name, logo, software, and all marketing materials, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Except as expressly permitted, you may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, sublicense, or create derivative works of any part of the Service.

You retain ownership of any content you create using the Service. Documents authored in the DocuCommit desktop editor stay on your machine and in your Git repository; we do not receive or host them.

DocuCommit bundles third-party open-source components, each used under its own licence. Those licences and the notices they require are listed on our third-party licenses page.

6. Subscriptions and billing

Paid plans are sold as recurring subscriptions. Payment and billing are handled by our payment processor, Stripe; by subscribing you also agree to Stripe's terms for the payment itself.

• Subscriptions renew automatically for successive billing periods (monthly or annual) until cancelled.
• You may cancel at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period and is not pro-rated unless required by law.
• A free trial, where offered, runs for the stated period and requires no payment method; it becomes a paid subscription only if you choose to subscribe.
• Prices are shown in EUR and exclude any taxes, which are added where applicable.
• The licence granted with a subscription, and your rights on cancellation or non-payment, are set out in the EULA.

If you are a consumer in the EU/EEA, statutory withdrawal rights may apply; any waiver of those rights for immediately supplied digital content is handled at checkout in accordance with applicable law.

7. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or that defects will be corrected.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we, our affiliates, and our suppliers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of the Service.

Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you have paid us in the twelve months preceding the claim, or (b) one thousand euros (EUR 1,000).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable mandatory law, including liability for intent or gross negligence.

9. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, if you breach these Terms or if we discontinue the Service. You may stop using the Service at any time.

10. Changes to the Service and these Terms

We may modify the Service or these Terms at any time. Material changes to these Terms will be reflected in the "last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

11. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of Sweden, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Swedish courts, with Malmö District Court (Malmö tingsrätt) as the court of first instance.

If you are a consumer resident in the EU, mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence will continue to apply.
