Legal

Terms of Service.

Effective 13 May 2026

1. Acceptance

These Terms govern your use of the Markie desktop application, Chrome extension, MCP server, SDK, iOS app, and any related software or documentation we distribute (together, "Markie").

By installing, running, or otherwise using Markie, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not install or use it.

2. License

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use Markie on devices you own or control. The license is free for personal use up to the free-tier asset limit; paid plans are governed by the separate purchase terms displayed at checkout.

You may not redistribute, resell, sublicense, reverse-engineer beyond what is permitted by mandatory law, or remove proprietary notices from Markie.

3. No Warranty

MARKIE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.

We do not warrant that Markie will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, virus-free, or that any data you store or process with it will be preserved without loss or corruption.

4. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL VITGRANEN AB, ITS OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF — OR INABILITY TO USE — MARKIE, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Our total cumulative liability for any claim arising out of or relating to Markie will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for Markie in the twelve months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) one hundred euros (€100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers or limitations, so portions of this section may not apply to you. The limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted by law.

5. Your Data and Files

Markie is local-first. Your saved files, thumbnails, and metadata are stored on disk on your machine (or in a sync folder you choose). We do not receive or store the contents of your library.

Optional features may connect to third-party services you configure (for example, a local Ollama instance for AI tagging, GitHub for release downloads, or LemonSqueezy for license validation). Use of those services is subject to their own terms and privacy policies.

You are solely responsible for backing up your data. We are not responsible for any loss of files, thumbnails, metadata, or any other data stored by or through Markie.

6. Acceptable Use

You will not use Markie to:

  • store, process, or share content you do not have the right to;
  • infringe any third party's copyright, trademark, privacy, or other rights;
  • circumvent the free-tier asset limit other than by purchasing a Pro license;
  • interfere with the integrity or performance of Markie or any service we operate;
  • save, process, or distribute material that is unlawful in your jurisdiction.

7. Updates

Markie may check for updates and, with your consent, download and install new versions. We may add, change, or remove features at any time. We may also update these Terms; material changes will prompt you to re-accept the new version within the application.

8. Termination

You may stop using Markie and delete it from your devices at any time. We may suspend or discontinue Markie, or any feature within it, without liability. Sections 3, 4, and 11 survive any termination.

9. Third-Party Software

Markie ships with and uses open-source components subject to their own licenses. A summary is available in the application's About section and in the public source repositories.

10. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Effective" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of Markie after a revised version takes effect constitutes acceptance.

11. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Sweden, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your use of Markie will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Sweden, subject to any non-waivable consumer rights you may have under the law of your country of residence.
