Terms and end user license

The battery wanted a lifetime commitment. It got a license agreement. It is being very brave.

Film Grain Brain LLC ("we", "us") licenses The Pleading Battery. Polar is the merchant of record and reseller for payments, tax and refunds. Its buyer terms and your rights against Polar remain. Contact FGBSupport@proton.me.

USD 6.99 once, plus tax shown before payment. No app subscription or trial. Your personal, non-transferable license covers all Macs you own, not household sharing or business fleets. No device seats or arbitrary activation caps. Polar verifies your purchase key.

Offered updates are free; future features, indefinite support and macOS compatibility are not promised. Express promises, purchase descriptions and legal obligations remain.

You own your content; we own our original work. Installation and backups are allowed. Except where law permits, do not share/sell keys, rent, sublicense or distribute our proprietary app, bypass licensing, or reverse engineer/modify proprietary code. Third-party rights remain.

Request a full refund by emailing support within 14 calendar days after purchase, for any reason. Full app payment and tax are returned without fees or deductions. Timely requests qualify even if processed later, regardless of use, download or activation. No explanation or troubleshooting is required. Separate AI charges are excluded. Mandatory refund rights and deadlines remain.

The battery may plead. You do not have to.

20% battery. 100% convinced this is the finale. Save your actual work.

Readings and commentary may be wrong or late. This is not a safety system: no battery-life/health guarantee or protection from overheating, shutdowns or hardware/data loss. Back up files; follow macOS warnings and manufacturer instructions.

Confidence: full charge. Qualifications: none.

Optional AI is fallible, not professional advice. Built-in lines need no account. Confirm Mac actions. Provider accounts, fees, subscriptions and limits are separate; no ChatGPT subscription or AI credits included. Provider changes cannot remove legal remedies. Privacy explains data handling, not blanket processing or marketing consent.

Supplied third-party licenses and notices control their covered material, taking priority over these Terms. All independent use, copying, modification, reverse engineering, redistribution, sublicensing, commercial-use and source-access rights remain as granted. Payment, accounts, activation, refunds or proprietary-license termination cannot restrict them. We impose no additional terms or effective technological measures restricting CC-licensed rights.

Your proprietary license ends at your choice, refund, payment reversal or our termination for fraud/material breach. Fixable breaches receive notice and reasonable opportunity to remedy unless law, fraud or ongoing material harm requires earlier action. Challenge errors through support.

Then stop using and remove the proprietary app; disabling access may take time. Keep exported content and independently licensed materials. Exporting or deleting content is not a refund condition. Termination/payment disputes cannot erase refund obligations, accrued rights or mandatory remedies.

Except for express promises and non-waivable rights, the app is provided "as is" and "as available". Where lawful, we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement, and promise no error-free or uninterrupted operation.

Where lawful, we exclude indirect, incidental, special and consequential damages, including lost profits or data, and cap total liability at the amount paid for the app purchase giving rise to the claim. This does not reduce your full refund.

Neither exclusion nor cap covers fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or liability, statutory damages, costs or consumer remedies that cannot lawfully be limited. Statutory consumer rights remain unaffected, including after 14 days.

Ohio law governs where permitted, preserving mandatory protections where you live. Courts with proper jurisdiction and venue remain available. We require no exclusive Ohio venue, arbitration, class-action or jury-trial waiver. Small-claims rights remain. Contacting support is not a prerequisite to legal remedies, payment-provider help or regulators.

Express agreement before payment with readable policy links is required. The accepted version governs your purchase. Website edits or continued use alone do not mean you accepted material changes; we must ask for agreement. Changes cannot reduce accrued rights or your refund promise. Unenforceable provisions leave the rest effective only where lawful.
