Terms of use

Last updated: August 7, 2026

Summary

ClutterDock’s core is free forever for personal and commercial use. Pro is an optional one-time license unlock — no subscription, no account. By downloading or using ClutterDock you agree to these terms.

The Free tier

You may use the free tier on any number of devices, at home or at work, for as long as you like. Free-tier limits (such as the number of folders and items) are part of the product design and may change between versions, but launching items you have already added will never be paywalled.

Pro licenses

A Pro license covers one person on all devices they personally use. A Pro Multi license covers up to 5 people in one household or one person’s machine fleet. Licenses are perpetual for the version you buy and the updates we ship to it; we may sell paid upgrades for major new versions in the future, but will never convert your purchase into a subscription. Don’t publish, resell, or share your key outside your license scope.

Delivery & activation

Pro keys are delivered by email or by the checkout provider and validated offline on your device — no account, no activation server. Keep your key somewhere safe; if you lose it, contact us with your purchase details and we’ll resend it.

Refunds

If Pro isn’t working out within 14 days of purchase, contact us for a full refund. Refunded keys are deactivated from our records and shouldn’t be used afterwards.

Acceptable use

Don’t use ClutterDock to break the law, and don’t attempt to generate, forge, or circulate license keys. The app’s source may be publicly visible; that visibility is not a license to bypass the Pro unlock in distributed builds.

No warranty

ClutterDock is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from use of the app; our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for your license.

Changes

We may update these terms as the product evolves (for example when checkout or cloud sync ships). Material changes will be reflected on this page with a new “last updated” date.
