Lyre End User License Agreement

Contents

Version: 1.0

Licensor: Jonathan Bakhit, an individual (the "Licensor"). Lyre Studio is a trade name only. There is no company, LLC or other legal entity behind it.

This End User License Agreement (the "Agreement") is a legal agreement between you and the Licensor for the Lyre desktop application and the Lyre mobile application, their documentation, and any updates supplied under this Agreement (collectively, the "Software"). The Software is proprietary to the Licensor. All rights in the Software are reserved except as this Agreement expressly grants.

1. Acceptance

Read this Agreement before installing or using the Software. By installing or using the Software, you accept this Agreement. If you do not accept it, do not install or use the Software. If you accept for an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization.

2. Eligibility and scope

You must have legal capacity to enter this Agreement. The Software is intended for adults aged 18 and over. This Agreement applies to the Software obtained from the Licensor or an authorized distribution channel. Additional or separate terms may apply to optional services, marketplace content, purchases made through an app store, or later releases.

3. Grant of licence

Subject to this Agreement, and to payment of any applicable subscription or other fee, the Licensor grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to install and use the Software on devices you own or control, for your own personal purposes or your own internal business purposes. The licence is granted only as expressly stated in this Agreement. The Software is licensed, not sold.

4. Scope and restrictions

Except where applicable law or the licence of a third-party or open-source component expressly permits it, you may not:

These restrictions do not limit rights that cannot lawfully be restricted, including rights granted by licences governing open-source components.

5. Reservation of rights; no implied licence

All rights not expressly granted in this Agreement are reserved by the Licensor. No licence or right is granted, and none may be implied, by implication, estoppel, exhaustion, course of dealing, custom, or otherwise. You must not do anything with the Software that this Agreement does not expressly permit. Title to and all intellectual-property rights in the Software, including copyright, remain with the Licensor and the Licensor's licensors. This Agreement grants you no ownership interest in the Software and no right to use the Licensor's names, logos, or trademarks.

6. Confidential information and trade secrets

The Software, including its source code and object code, its architecture, its non-public interfaces and protocols, and any associated non-public documentation, together with any other non-public information the Licensor provides, is confidential information and a trade secret of the Licensor. You must:

You must not disclose that information to any third party. These obligations continue after termination of this Agreement and do not limit any separate written confidentiality obligation you owe the Licensor.

7. Subscriptions and paid features

Some features require a paid subscription or other purchase.

8. Privacy and data

The Software's access to project folders, devices, local-network services, and optional external providers is limited by the permissions and actions presented in the product. This Agreement does not grant the Licensor ownership of your project files. Any separately presented privacy notice (currently published at https://www.lyrestudio.net/privacy.html) governs the collection and processing of personal data for the feature it describes. You are responsible for protecting secrets and personal data in projects you choose to process.

9. Third-party and open-source components

The Software may contain or interact with open-source software, proprietary components, package managers, development tools, and third-party services. Those items are governed by their own licences and terms, which are included with them or made available by their providers. The third-party notices distributed with the Software, and the copies recorded in `legal/third-party-notices.txt` and `legal/licenses/`, identify components and reproduce applicable licence texts. If this Agreement conflicts with an applicable third-party or open-source licence, that licence controls for the covered component, and nothing in this Agreement restricts rights granted under an open-source licence.

In particular, parts of the Software incorporate and adapt the Paseo application source. Those Paseo-derived components are licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 and remain governed by it. They therefore carry the permissions that Apache-2.0 grants, including the rights to use, reproduce, modify, and redistribute those components, subject to the conditions of Apache-2.0 (including retention of notices). This proprietary grant does not, and does not purport to, restrict or relicense those Paseo-derived components.

10. Updates and availability

The Licensor may provide updates, fixes, or new versions. An update may add, remove or change features and may be subject to additional terms presented before use. Optional online or third-party services may be changed, interrupted or discontinued. You are responsible for backing up projects and data before installing updates or applying changes.

11. Disclaimer of warranty

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, SECURITY, OR UNINTERRUPTED OPERATION. THE LICENSOR DOES NOT WARRANT THAT PROJECTS WILL BUILD, RUN, REMAIN COMPATIBLE, OR BE FREE OF DEFECTS OR HARMFUL CODE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN DISCLAIMERS, SO SOME OF THESE TERMS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT LIMIT NON-WAIVABLE CONSUMER RIGHTS.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE LICENSOR WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. THE LICENSOR'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF US$100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE DURING THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY. THESE LIMITS APPLY TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW AND DO NOT EXCLUDE LIABILITY THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE EXCLUDED.

13. Equitable relief

You acknowledge and agree that a breach or threatened breach of section 4, 5, or 6 may cause the Licensor harm for which money damages would be an inadequate remedy. The Licensor is entitled to seek injunctive relief and specific performance (or its equivalent) in a court of competent jurisdiction, without the need to post a bond or other security and without proof of actual damages, in addition to all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity. This section does not limit the court's discretion and does not limit any statutory trade-secret or copyright remedy, and whether any such relief is granted is for the court. Nothing in this section limits any other remedy.

14. Termination and survival

This Agreement continues until terminated. You may terminate it by uninstalling and ceasing use of the Software. Your licence terminates automatically and immediately if you materially breach this Agreement, including by exercising any right that section 4 prohibits. Upon termination for any reason, you must stop using the Software and delete all copies of it, including any archival backup. Sections 4 (restrictions), 5 (reservation of rights), 6 (confidentiality), 11 (disclaimer), 12 (liability), 13 (equitable relief), 15 (compliance), 16 (governing law), and 17 (general terms), and any other provision that by its nature should survive, survive termination.

15. Compliance; export control and sanctions

You must comply with all applicable laws, including the export-control and sanctions laws of the United States and of any other applicable jurisdiction, and with privacy, intellectual-property, and computer-misuse laws. You represent and warrant that you are not located in, and will not use, export, re-export, or transfer the Software to, any country, region, entity, or person subject to applicable sanctions, and that you will not use the Software for any prohibited end use. You may not use or export the Software where prohibited by applicable law.

16. Governing law and jurisdiction

This Agreement, and any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to it or the Software, is governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Texas, United States, and agree that any such dispute must be brought in those courts and not elsewhere.

Nothing in this section removes any consumer-protection right that applicable mandatory law does not allow the parties to waive.

17. General terms

Entire agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement between the parties concerning the Software and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous statements, understandings, and agreements about its licence.

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

No waiver. A failure or delay by the Licensor in enforcing any provision is not a waiver of that or any other provision, and no waiver is effective unless in writing and signed by the Licensor.

No assignment. You may not assign, transfer, delegate, or sublicense this Agreement or any right or obligation under it, whether voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise, without the Licensor's prior written consent. Any purported attempt to do so is void. The Licensor may assign this Agreement as part of a transfer of the Software or of the Licensor's business.

Notices. Notices to you may be given through the Software or to the contact information you provide. Notices to the Licensor must be sent to support@lyrestudio.net or to another address the Licensor designates in writing.

Mandatory law. Mandatory law in your place of residence may give you additional rights that control where it conflicts with this Agreement.

18. Distribution channels; conflict with store terms

The Software may be obtained through different channels, including the Apple App Store, Google Play, and direct distribution for Windows, Linux, and macOS. If you obtain the Software through a store, your use is also governed by that store's terms, including, as applicable, Apple's App Store Terms and Conditions and Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, or the Google Play Terms of Service and the Google Play Developer Distribution Agreement. Section 19 sets out the additional terms required for Apple App Store distribution, and section 20 addresses Google Play purchases.

If a store's terms, or any mandatory applicable law, conflict with this Agreement, the store's terms or the mandatory law control for that distribution channel, and nothing in this Agreement restricts any right you have under them. In particular, nothing in section 4 (Scope and restrictions) prevents you from managing, cancelling, or requesting a refund for a subscription through the store where you bought it.

19. Apple App Store — minimum terms

If you obtained the Software from the Apple App Store, the following terms apply and are required by Apple:

20. Google Play purchases

Purchases made through Google Play are governed by the Google Play Terms of Service and the Google Play Developer Distribution Agreement. Billing, receipts, refunds, and subscription management for those purchases are handled by Google. Google is not a party to this Agreement and has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the Software. This section is consistent with section 7 (Subscriptions and paid features) and section 18 (distribution channels and conflict with store terms).
