Terms & EULA

LocalFlow is licensed to You (End-User) by ETLS Nordic Studio AB for use only under the terms of this License Agreement. By downloading or using the Application from the Apple App Store or by downloading it directly from our website, and any update thereto, You indicate that You agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this License Agreement.

Licensor: ETLS Nordic Studio AB. Organization number: 559589-6258. Registered in Sweden. Postal address available on request. Email: leo@etls.studio.

This License Agreement may not provide for usage rules in conflict with the Apple Media Services / App Store Terms of Service. ETLS Nordic Studio AB acknowledges it had the opportunity to review those terms and that this License Agreement is not in conflict with them. All rights not expressly granted to You are reserved.

LocalFlow is a native macOS dictation application. It transcribes your speech entirely on your device and types the resulting text into other applications at the cursor. It is intended as a productivity tool for individual users.

2.1 You are granted a non-transferable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable license to install and use the Application on devices that You own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the applicable App Store Terms of Service, except that the Application may be accessed by other accounts associated with You via Family Sharing where applicable.

2.2 This license also governs any updates provided by Licensor that replace, repair, or supplement the Application, unless a separate license accompanies the update.

2.3 You may not share, redistribute, sell, rent, lend, lease, or sublicense the Application, except to the degree allowed by the applicable platform terms and with ETLS Nordic Studio AB's prior written consent.

2.4 You may not reverse engineer, translate, disassemble, decompile, modify, adapt, create derivative works of, or attempt to derive the source code of the Application, except to the extent applicable mandatory law expressly permits.

2.5 You may not remove any intellectual-property notices. You may make backup copies only on devices You own or control.

2.6 Violations of these obligations may be subject to prosecution and damages.

2.7 Licensor reserves the right to modify the terms of licensing.

2.8 You must comply with applicable third-party terms when using the Application.

3.1 The Application requires macOS 15 or later; Apple Silicon is strongly recommended.

3.2 It is Your responsibility to confirm that Your device meets the technical specifications.

3.3 Licensor may modify the technical specifications at any time. You are not granted a right to claim an update.

4.1 Licensor is solely responsible for providing maintenance and support. You can reach us at leo@etls.studio.

4.2 ETLS Nordic Studio AB and the End-User acknowledge that Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish maintenance and support services with respect to the Application.

LocalFlow processes audio and produces text entirely on Your device. We do not access, collect, transmit, or store Your audio, transcripts, or the text You produce with the Application. Our handling of any data You voluntarily provide through our website is described in our Privacy Policy.

You retain all rights to the text and content You produce using the Application. Because processing is on-device, that content stays on Your device unless You choose to move it elsewhere. We claim no ownership of and no license to Your content.

7.1 Licensor takes no responsibility for damages caused by Your breach of Section 2. To avoid data loss, You are responsible for maintaining Your own backups.

7.2 TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL ETLS NORDIC STUDIO AB BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE APPLICATION.

7.3 Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for gross negligence, for fraud, or any liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law. This limitation of liability does not affect Your statutory consumer rights under EU law or Swedish consumer protection law that cannot be waived by contract.

8.1 Licensor warrants that the Application is free of malware at the time of download and that it works as described in the user documentation.

8.2 No warranty is provided where the Application is not executable on the device, has been unauthorizedly modified, handled inappropriately, or combined with inappropriate hardware or software, or for reasons outside ETLS Nordic Studio AB's sphere of influence.

8.3 If the Application is confirmed defective, Licensor may remedy the situation by solving the defect or by substitute delivery.

8.4 In the event of any failure to conform to an applicable warranty for an App Store purchase, You may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation.

8.5 For users who are entrepreneurs, claims based on faults expire twelve (12) months after the Application was made available. For users who are consumers, the statutory periods of limitation apply.

If You are a consumer in the EU, You generally have a 14-day right of withdrawal for digital purchases made directly from us. By starting the download or use of the software during this period, You expressly consent to immediate performance and acknowledge that You lose the right of withdrawal once performance has begun. Purchases made via the Apple App Store are handled by Apple and subject to Apple's refund process.

ETLS Nordic Studio AB, and not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims relating to the Application or Your use of it, including (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the Application fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.

You represent and warrant that You are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as "terrorist supporting," and that You are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

For inquiries, complaints, or claims concerning the Application: leo@etls.studio. ETLS Nordic Studio AB is registered in Sweden; postal address available on request.

This license is valid until terminated by either party. Your rights terminate automatically without notice if You fail to comply with any term. On termination You must stop all use and destroy all copies of the Application.

ETLS Nordic Studio AB and the End-User acknowledge that Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this End User License Agreement, and that upon Your acceptance, Apple will have the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this Agreement against You as a third-party beneficiary. Direct downloads (e.g. a .dmg from our website) are governed solely by this Agreement.

In the event of a third-party claim that the Application or Your use of it infringes that party's intellectual property rights, ETLS Nordic Studio AB, and not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of such claims.

This Agreement is governed by the laws of Sweden, excluding its conflict-of-law rules. Disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Stockholm, Sweden, except where EU consumer protection law grants You the right to bring proceedings in Your country of residence, and except for mandatory consumer protection rules of Your country of residence which continue to apply.

17.1 If any provision is or becomes invalid, the remaining provisions remain in effect and the invalid provision will be replaced by a valid one achieving its primary purpose.

17.2 Changes and amendments are only valid in writing.
