Terms of Service: CmdBrief Account & Subscription

1. Acceptance of Terms

These Terms govern your use of cmdbrief.com, your CmdBrief account, and the CmdBrief native macOS service. By creating an account, using the service, or accepting these Terms in Stripe Checkout, you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use or purchase the service.

2. Paid macOS Service

CmdBrief Pro is a digital subscription for the native CmdBrief macOS terminal and agent workspace. An active account and supported macOS device are required. Features may evolve, but material subscription changes will be communicated as required by applicable law.

3. Price, Taxes, Renewal, and Recurring Authorization

• Checkout shows the exact subscription price, currency, billing interval, and applicable taxes before payment.
• You may choose monthly or annual billing. CmdBrief does not offer a free trial; instead, your first subscription is covered by the 14-day money-back guarantee in Section 4.
• By completing Checkout, you authorize Stripe to charge your selected payment method immediately and automatically at each monthly or annual renewal until cancellation.
• Promotions, if offered, do not change the renewal cadence or recurring authorization shown at Checkout.
• Stripe processes payment details. CmdBrief does not receive or store your full card number or card security code.

4. Cancellation and Refunds

You can cancel, update a payment method, change an available plan, and obtain invoices in the Stripe Customer Portal linked from your account. Cancellation stops the next renewal and normally remains effective through the already-paid billing period. Deleting the app or disputing a charge does not by itself serve as a cancellation request.

14-day money-back guarantee. If CmdBrief is not for you, email [email protected] from your account email within 14 days of the first successful charge on your account and we will refund that charge in full to the original payment method. No reason is required. The guarantee applies once per account, to the first subscription only; it does not apply to renewals, to a second subscription after a refund or cancellation, or to agent provider costs billed by third parties. The subscription ends when the refund is issued, and refunds normally reach the original payment method within 5–10 business days depending on the card issuer.

Statutory right of withdrawal. Consumers in the European Union and the United Kingdom have a legal right to withdraw from a distance contract within 14 days without giving a reason. The money-back guarantee above is how we honor it: the window is the same 14 days, and we refund the charge in full rather than pro rata even though access starts immediately at your request. An email to [email protected] stating that you are withdrawing is sufficient; the model withdrawal form provided by EU law may be used but is not required.

Outside the money-back guarantee and the statutory withdrawal right, and except where mandatory consumer law requires otherwise, subscription charges are non-refundable and partial billing periods are not prorated. Contact [email protected] promptly if you believe a charge is incorrect. Nothing in these Terms limits non-waivable consumer rights.

5. Service Access and Payment Disputes

Access depends on the subscription state confirmed by Stripe. We may temporarily suspend access while an early fraud warning, refund, or payment dispute is reviewed. A full disputed subscription charge is configured to cancel the Stripe subscription without proration. If a dispute is later resolved in your favor, the canceled subscription is not automatically restored; you must subscribe again after the payment hold is cleared.

CmdBrief can stop issuing new entitlement credentials immediately, but an entitlement already issued to an offline device may continue to work until its embedded expiry, for up to 72 hours. We may contact you using the account email to resolve payment or security issues.

6. Accounts

• Creating an account requires a valid email address and one-time email verification.
• You are responsible for keeping your account credentials and the verification email address secure.
• Accounts are personal; sharing or reselling access is not permitted.
• Optional product updates are a separate opt-in and are not required for service emails.

7. Intellectual Property and Acceptable Use

CmdBrief and its site content are owned by CmdBrief or its licensors. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-transferable right to use the service. You may not resell access, bypass account or payment controls, interfere with security, scrape private surfaces, or use our trademarks without authorization.

8. Disclaimers

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CmdBrief is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of the service. This section does not exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

10. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms. We will post the new version and effective date and provide additional notice for material changes when required. A new recurring purchase requires acceptance of the Terms version presented at Checkout.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by applicable law, without limiting mandatory protections or dispute forums available to consumers in their country of residence.
