Terms of Service

1. Scope

These Terms of Service govern your use of the Splitterm application, website and related services (the “Service”), operated by Timon Röcker (Splitterm) (“we”, “us”). By using the Service, you agree to these terms.

2. The Service

Splitterm is a fast, tiling desktop terminal. It splits its window into a grid of panes, each running its own shell. The Service comprises the Splitterm application, this website, and related account features.

3. Registration and account

You must provide accurate information when creating an account, keep your credentials confidential, and are responsible for all activity under your account. You must be at least the age of majority in your place of residence.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the Service, including by using it for unlawful purposes, interfering with its operation, or attempting to gain unauthorised access to it.

5. Fees and membership

Splitterm's core features are free to use. Additional features are available through a paid membership, billed monthly or annually. The price of each plan and what it includes are shown before you subscribe. Paid memberships are billed in advance and renew automatically each billing period until you cancel. You can cancel at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period. Fees are non-refundable except where required by applicable law.

If you are a consumer resident in the EU/EEA, you have the right to withdraw from a paid membership within 14 days of subscribing, without giving a reason. Because the paid features are supplied digitally and access begins immediately, by subscribing and requesting immediate access you ask us to begin performance during the 14-day period and acknowledge that you lose the right of withdrawal once performance has begun. To withdraw before access begins, contact us at contact [at] splitterm [dot] com.

6. Intellectual property

The Splitterm desktop application, the Splitterm name, logo, this website and its content remain our property or that of our licensors. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Service for your own purposes in accordance with these terms. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

7. Availability

We make reasonable efforts to keep the Service available but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may modify or discontinue features at any time.

8. Warranty and liability

To the extent permitted by Swiss law, the Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages. Mandatory statutory liability, in particular for unlawful intent or gross negligence, remains unaffected.

9. Term and termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these terms.

10. Data protection

We process personal data as described in our Privacy Policy.

11. Amendments

We may amend these terms. We will make the current version available on this page, and continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

12. Governing law and jurisdiction

These terms are governed by Swiss law, excluding its conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory consumer-protection provisions of the country where you are habitually resident. The place of jurisdiction is Zürich, Switzerland; if you are a consumer, this does not affect any mandatory place of jurisdiction available to you under the law of your domicile.
