Terms of use
Last updated 1 September 2026
Plain terms for ploca. By downloading or using it, you agree to what follows.
i.The software
ploca is under active development. It downloads free, with a seven day trial starting on first launch, followed by a three day grace period; after that, continued use requires a one time purchase for a lifetime licence, at a reduced price of $29.99 through 31 October 2026. Features may change or be added and removed as the app evolves. We will give reasonable notice of any planned end of service where we can.
ii.Provided as is
ploca is provided as is, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Software under active development can contain defects. To the maximum extent allowed by law, ploca is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of it, including lost work or data. Keep your own copies of anything important.
iii.Acceptable use
Use ploca lawfully. Do not redistribute the build, resell it, or attempt to disable the beta-status or licence check in order to circumvent the trial or the licence. You may inspect how the app works; that is encouraged. You may not use ploca to break the law or to infringe the rights of others.
iv.Your content
Everything you dictate stays on your Mac. We never receive it, so we claim no rights over it and take no responsibility for it. What you write is yours.
v.Purchases and refunds
Lifetime licences are sold through Polar, our payment processor and merchant of record, and are billed once with no recurring charge. If a licence does not work out for you, write to hey@ploca.app within fourteen days of purchase for a full refund.
vi.Your email
ploca does not require an email address to download or use it. If you choose to sign up for occasional updates, our handling of that address is described in the privacy statement. You can unsubscribe or ask for deletion at any time.
vii.Changes and contact
We may update these terms as ploca evolves, with the date above reflecting the latest version. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States. Questions go to hey@ploca.app.
