Terms of Service

Effective date: 10 February 2026

These terms govern your use of Solace, a macOS application developed by Theodore Harding ("the Developer"), c/o Fairway House Links Business, Fortran Rd, St Mellons, Cardiff CF3 0LT, United Kingdom. By downloading, installing, or using Solace, you agree to these terms.

Licence

The Developer grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use Solace on any Mac computers that you own or control, for personal or professional use.

Purchase

Solace is available as a one-time purchase. There are no subscriptions or recurring fees. A 7-day free trial is available. After the trial period, a licence purchase is required to continue using the application.

Intellectual property

Solace and all associated materials — including the application code, design, website, and documentation — are the intellectual property of the Developer. All rights not expressly granted in these terms are reserved.

Restrictions

You may not:

• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the application
• Modify, adapt, or create derivative works based on the application
• Redistribute, sublicence, rent, lease, or lend the application
• Remove or alter any proprietary notices or labels

Disclaimer of warranties

Nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer. In the United Kingdom, digital content must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, and as described under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, and these rights cannot be excluded or limited.

Subject to your statutory rights, Solace is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Developer makes no additional warranties, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. The Developer does not warrant that the application will be error-free, uninterrupted, or free of harmful components.

Accuracy of calculations

Sunrise, sunset, and solar position calculations are estimates based on standard astronomical algorithms. Weather data is provided by Apple WeatherKit and may not always reflect real-time conditions. These features are provided for convenience and should not be relied upon for safety-critical or time-sensitive decisions.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Developer's total liability arising out of or in connection with your use of Solace shall not exceed the amount you paid for the application.

In no event shall the Developer be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, regardless of the cause of action.

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law, including your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

Refunds

If you purchased Solace through the Mac App Store, refunds are handled by Apple in accordance with their refund policy. If you purchased Solace directly, contact support@theodorehq.com within 14 days of purchase for a full refund.

If you purchase Solace directly and consent to immediate access to the digital content, you acknowledge that you lose your right to cancel under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 once the download or licence activation begins.

Termination

You may stop using Solace at any time by uninstalling it. The Developer may discontinue the application or terminate your licence if you breach these terms. Upon termination, you must delete all copies of the application.

Updates

The Developer may release updates to Solace from time to time. These terms apply to all updates unless accompanied by separate terms. Updates are provided at the Developer's discretion and are not guaranteed.

Governing law

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes arising from these terms shall be subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

If you are a consumer, nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights or your right to bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence. Mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of habitual residence will continue to apply regardless of the governing law chosen.

Severability

If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

Changes to these terms

The Developer may update these terms at any time. The revised version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. We will provide reasonable notice of material changes. If you do not agree with the updated terms, you should stop using Solace.
