MacFart is made by a small team, sold directly, and operated as a single-purchase app with lifetime access. These terms cover what you can expect from us and what we expect from you.
What you're buying
A limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to run MacFart on Macs you personally own, with up to two active activations at a time. That includes every update we ever ship for the current major version. If we release a MacFart 2 that's a whole new product, we'll say so clearly and offer upgrade pricing; we don't turn existing licenses into rentals.
This license does not let you: share, resell, sublicense, or transfer your key; activate it on more than two devices at once; reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app; remove or obscure copyright or proprietary notices; or use MacFart's source, behaviour, or sounds to build a competing product. The license terminates automatically and immediately if you violate any of the above, file a chargeback, or share your key in the wild.
Digital delivery & acknowledgment
MacFart is €6.90 once, VAT included. There is no free trial and no subscription.
By completing your purchase, you expressly acknowledge and agree that:
- Instant digital delivery. MacFart is a digital good. Immediately after your payment succeeds, our server generates your license key and emails it to the address you paid with. First login to the app using that key constitutes acknowledgment of delivery and receipt.
- Waiver of withdrawal right (EU). In accordance with EU Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU) Article 16(m), you expressly consent to immediate delivery of digital content and acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once the digital content has been delivered and your license key has been activated.
- Activity logging. We keep delivery logs of every license: the Resend message ID of the email we sent you, its delivery / open / click events, the timestamp of your first successful activation, and the fingerprint of each device you activated on. These logs are our proof of delivery.
No refunds, ever
All sales are final. Because MacFart is a digital product delivered instantly and a license, once issued, cannot be un-issued, we do not offer refunds under any circumstances. You reviewed the price, the feature list, and this policy before paying. If the vibe isn't for you, don't buy.
If the app literally won't install or launch on a supported Mac (macOS 13+, Apple Silicon or Intel), that's a bug, not a refund case — email [email protected] with a screenshot and we'll fix it. If the bug turns out to be unfixable on your exact setup we'll revoke the license and refund at our sole discretion. Mandatory consumer-protection laws in your home country are not waived by this paragraph.
Before disputing the charge with your bank, email us first — we read everything and we're usually faster than a chargeback process.
Chargeback policy
Filing a chargeback or payment dispute for a legitimately delivered MacFart license will result in:
- Immediate license revocation. Your activation is deactivated on all devices. The app will refuse to run on the next license check.
- Evidence submission. We submit the full delivery trail to your payment provider: the Resend delivery and open events for the license email, the activation timestamps, the device fingerprints that used the key, this Terms page you accepted at checkout, and any correspondence.
- Recovery of costs. We reserve the right to recover the chargeback fee charged by our payment processor and any administrative costs from you.
- Permanent ban. The email address and payment method are blocked from future MacFart purchases and from the Fartify marketplace.
Fraud prevention & evidence retention
To prevent stolen-card fraud and protect legitimate buyers, we collect and keep, for a minimum of seven years after purchase: the Resend message ID and event timeline for the license email; timestamps, coarse geolocation (country-level from the TLS handshake), and device fingerprint of every activation attempt; the Stripe checkout session ID tied to your license; and any support correspondence. We reserve the right to delay or cancel orders that look fraudulent, and to share this data with payment processors and law enforcement when required.
License sharing
Don't. One license is for one person's Macs. If we detect a license activated on a dozen unrelated machines we may deactivate it without notice. If you need multiple seats for a team, email us — we do simple multi-seat pricing.
What MacFart does on your Mac
MacFart reads memory statistics using the standard macOS APIs, can trigger a memory purge when you ask it to, and can politely ask other apps to quit. It does not silently delete files, collect keystrokes, or phone home with anything other than the license + update pings described in our Privacy policy.
Your content & the Fartify upload license
You own the sounds you record, the sounds you import, and any recordings you publish to Fartify. By uploading a clip to Fartify you confirm two things: you made it or you have the right to share it, and it is actually a fart sound — not a voice recording, not a musical phrase, not a sample you scraped.
You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable license to host the clip on Nextcloud, serve it to other MacFart users, include it in Fartify lists (new, trending, top), and generate an Open Graph preview for social sharing. You grant other paid MacFart users a royalty-free, irrevocable license to use the clip inside MacFart only — they can't repackage it into a different product.
You can revoke your upload license for future use by deleting the fart from MacFart ("My Sounds" → the red trash icon in the Fartify row). We will remove the public share and the file from Nextcloud. We can't un-download copies already on other users' Macs.
We take down, at our sole discretion and without notice:
- Slurs, hate speech, targeted harassment, threats
- Identifiable human voices used without consent
- Copyrighted material you don't hold the rights to
- Doxxing, names, phone numbers, addresses
- Sexual content involving, or implied to involve, minors
- Anything that turns out to not actually be a fart
Post-moderation uses a mix of auto-filters (title profanity, duration bounds, audio hash duplicate check, report threshold) and manual review. Three unique reports auto-hide a fart pending review. Final decisions are ours.
No warranty (the loud bit)
MacFart is provided "as is". We stand by it and we'll fix bugs as quickly as we can, but we can't promise it runs on every future macOS build, every Mac hardware revision, or in every corporate setup. To the maximum extent allowed by law, we disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Liability cap
Our total liability under these terms, across all claims, is capped at the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose. For most people, that's €6.90. We'll still try to make it right, but that's the legal ceiling.
Acceptable use
Don't decompile MacFart to build a competitor, don't use it to harass anyone, don't use it to bypass another app's security. Basic internet citizen rules.
Changes
If we change these terms materially, we'll update the "last updated" date and email active license holders before the change takes effect. Continued use of MacFart after that date means you accept the update.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the country where MacFart is incorporated. If you're a consumer in the EU, UK, Switzerland, or Australia, the mandatory consumer-protection laws of your home country still apply and override anything above that conflicts.
