Terms of Service

Effective date: November 10, 2026 · Sold by PopNotch Studio

1. Overview & Agreement

By downloading, installing, or purchasing a license for PopNotch ("Software"), provided by PopNotch Studio, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the Software.

2. License Grant

PopNotch is licensed, not sold, on a one-time perpetual purchase model:

Personal Use: Each license permits you to install and activate PopNotch on one (1) personal Mac computer at a time.
No Subscriptions: There are no recurring fees or ongoing subscription commitments. Maintenance updates and bug fixes are included.
Custom Pet Generation Quota: Licenses with AI custom pet creation features include a set quota of pet generation credits as specified at checkout. Additional credits or packs may be purchased separately.

3. File Operations & Trash Handling

PopNotch provides interactive animations when files are moved to the macOS Trash or dropped onto the camera notch. By default, files are moved to the standard system Trash and can be restored using macOS's built-in "Put Back" function. PopNotch is not responsible for any permanent file deletions initiated manually by the user.

4. System Compatibility

PopNotch requires macOS 13.0 (Ventura) or newer, supporting both Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) and Intel-based Mac computers. Display notch animations automatically adapt to hardware notches or menu bar drops on non-notch displays.

5. Refunds & Consumer Rights

All transactions are securely processed through our Merchant of Record, Lemon Squeezy (Lemon Squeezy, LLC). Because PopNotch is digital software and digital content supplied immediately upon purchase, the statutory change-of-mind cooling-off cancellation right does not apply once the digital license has been delivered.

However, if you experience a technical incompatibility or defect on your supported Mac that our support team cannot resolve, please contact us at hello@popnotch.app within 14 days of purchase. We will investigate promptly and provide an appropriate remedy, including a full refund where applicable.
