This agreement defines the end-user license for the official Whisker Windows application. It is separate from the source-code terms and from the licenses of third-party components.
1. License grant
Subject to this agreement and the applicable purchase or trial terms, LicoAs grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual license to install and use one copy of the Software on one active Windows PC for your personal or internal business use.
The Regular license is currently USD 79. The Founders Edition is currently USD 59 for the first 50 licenses. These prices are commercial terms and may be updated for future offers without changing licenses already granted, subject to applicable law.
2. Trial
Where offered, the trial lasts exactly seven days. A trial is for evaluation and does not create a perpetual paid entitlement. An expired trial is not automatically restarted.
3. Activation and device limit
Each paid entitlement may have one active Windows PC at a time. The Software may require online activation and periodic authorization refresh. A valid signed local authorization lease may allow continued use offline for its validity period; the current paid lease window is 72 hours.
Device transfer is handled through the technical support channel under the applicable support procedure. The normal transfer cooldown is seven days, unless support applies an authorized exception.
4. Permitted copies
You may make a reasonable backup copy of the installer or Software for your own use, provided that the backup is not distributed, sold, or used to create an additional active installation.
5. Restrictions
Except where applicable law or an included third-party license gives you a right that cannot be restricted, you must not:
- Redistribute, resell, rent, lease, sublicense, or publicly make available the official Software or your license credentials.
- Remove or obscure proprietary notices or technical protection measures.
- Circumvent activation, authorization, device enforcement, or update integrity controls.
- Modify, translate, adapt, or create derivative works of the official Software.
- Use the Software to provide a hosted or managed service to third parties without written permission from LicoAs.
6. Ownership and branding
The Software, Whisker-original source code, and Whisker branding remain the property of LicoAs or their respective owners. This agreement grants a right to use the Software; it does not transfer ownership or grant source-code or trademark rights.
7. Cloud providers and user content
Cloud transcription or translation is optional and is used only when selected and configured. Audio, credentials, transcripts, translations, and other content sent to a third-party provider are subject to that provider's terms and privacy policy. You are responsible for having the rights and permissions needed to process the content you submit and for any provider API credentials you configure.
Whisker's data-handling boundaries are described in the Privacy Policy.
8. Updates and support
LicoAs may provide updates, fixes, or security improvements. Support, compatibility, and the availability of particular third-party providers are not guaranteed unless expressly promised in the applicable purchase terms.
Creem acts as the Merchant of Record for purchases made through its checkout and handles transaction processing, invoicing, applicable indirect taxes, and transaction-related refund or chargeback processing under its applicable terms. LicoAs remains the developer and licensor of Whisker.
9. Termination
This agreement ends automatically if you materially breach it. On termination, you must stop using and delete the Software and any copies in your possession. Termination does not remove rights that apply to third-party components under their own licenses.
10. Warranty disclaimer and liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LICOAS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE OR THIS AGREEMENT.
Nothing in this agreement excludes or limits liability or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
11. Third-party licenses
Third-party software, models, runtimes, and assets may be included with or used by the Software under their own terms. Those terms are preserved in the official distribution notices.
12. Changes to this agreement
This version applies to the official Software distribution that references it. Future versions may contain updated terms. A change does not retroactively remove rights already granted for an earlier version, except as required by applicable law or expressly agreed by the parties.
This agreement is a product-licensing draft for release integration and must be reviewed with the final legal entity, purchase flow, support process, and applicable jurisdiction before public sale.
