Draft — not yet reviewed by counsel. These are the beta terms we intend to stand behind; a lawyer-reviewed version will replace this page before any paid features launch. Last updated July 2026.

Terms of use (beta)

1. What you’re agreeing to

By installing or using Keycito (the “app”) or its optional online features, you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, don’t use the app. The app is currently beta software provided free of charge.

2. Beta status — please read this one

Keycito is in active development. It may contain bugs, may change or remove features without notice, and local data (streaks, scores, learning progress) may occasionally be reset between beta versions. We’ll try hard to avoid that; we can’t promise it.

3. License

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the app on Macs you own or control. You may not redistribute modified builds under the product’s name, or use the app to build a competing data-collection product.

4. The privacy invariants (they bind us, not you)

These are product commitments, restated here so they have contractual weight:

  • No raw keystrokes, typed text, or per-keystroke timestamps ever leave your Mac — or are even written to disk.
  • Only the published daily score payload syncs, and only after you opt into leagues.
  • We never sell or share your personal data with anyone, for any purpose.

See the privacy policy for the full picture.

5. Accounts and leagues (optional)

  • You must be 16 or older to create an account. The offline app has no age requirement because it collects nothing.
  • One account per person. Keep your sign-in method secure.
  • Display names visible to your league must not be offensive or impersonate others; we may reset ones that are.

6. Fair play

Competitive features only work if scores mean something. You agree not to submit manipulated usage data, generate synthetic keyboard events to inflate scores, run automation for the purpose of scoring, or operate multiple accounts. We may exclude scores, suspend competitive features, or disqualify accounts from competitions and promotions where we have good reason to believe this is happening — and where we act on it, we’ll say what rule was applied. Ordinary use of remapping and automation tools (Karabiner-Elements, Keyboard Maestro and similar) as part of real work is explicitly fine.

7. Termination

You can stop using the app at any time; deleting it removes all local data. We may suspend or terminate online features for accounts that violate section 5 or 6. Sections 4, 8, and 9 survive termination.

8. Warranty disclaimer

The app is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. Beta software especially so.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the app. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the app in the twelve months before the claim — which, during the free beta, is zero.

10. Changes to these terms

If we change these terms materially, we’ll note it here with a date and, for account holders, say so in the app before the change applies to you.

11. Governing law and contact

Governing law and the responsible legal entity will be stated here when the operating company is formed, which happens before any paid features go live. Until then, Keycito is run by its founder as an individual, and questions go to jkdev222@gmail.com.
