In short
- You can use the free reader after you install the app or a supported browser extension.
- Your files stay yours. We do not automatically upload your document content.
- Before a download from our site, you may choose to give us your name, email, and job type. These are optional and used for our internal business use. We do not sell that information or share it with outside parties for their own use.
- EazyReader+ is $5 per year, billed annually. You may refer a friend when EazyReader+ is available. This does not include a discounted subscription, a free year, or any other referral reward. Draft pending counsel.
- Optional AI features can be wrong. Do not treat them as professional advice.
- The complete Terms below are the agreement. If you do not agree, do not download or use EazyReader.
1. Acceptance
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and us. Our Privacy Notice is part of this agreement.
By checking the box and clicking Download, or by otherwise installing or using EazyReader, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not download, install, or use the product.
You may view our marketing website without agreeing. Downloading or installing from our site requires agreement.
If you use EazyReader on behalf of an organization, you confirm that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” includes that organization. Small Business/Enterprise use may be subject to additional terms. Using “Interested? Contact us.” is not a purchase and does not create a paid contract.
2. The product
EazyReader is software for opening, reading, and organizing Markdown files.
- Free. After you install a compatible app or extension, you may open, read, and organize local Markdown files. Recipients cannot use EazyReader without installing it themselves.
- EazyReader+. An optional paid plan. It is planned to include additional styles and customization, highlight passages, Markdown source editing with autosave, and optional on-device AI assistance. What you receive is what we describe at checkout.
- Small Business/Enterprise. An optional offering, if and when available. It is described as an AI document hub for your company and a shared home for your team's Markdown. It may be subject to additional terms. There is no list price on our site. Interest is invited with “Interested? Contact us.” Contacting us is not a purchase and does not guarantee access, pricing, or a contract.
We may change features over time. We do not promise that every feature will be available on every device or in every region. Some capabilities, including default Markdown file handling and optional AI, require your permission and compatible hardware or software.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old to use EazyReader. If you are under 18, a parent or legal guardian must agree to these Terms on your behalf, and you may use the product only with their permission.
Paid purchases may be made only by someone with the legal capacity to enter a contract.
4. Information you provide before download
Before a download or extension install from our site, we ask for your name, email address, and job type. These fields are optional. You can download or install without them. You must agree to these Terms and our Privacy Notice to download.
We use this information for our internal business purposes, including operating EazyReader, understanding who is using it, providing support, and administering referrals. We do not sell it, and we do not share it with outside parties for their own use. We may use service providers to store or process it, including Google, as described in the Privacy Notice.
Optional marketing consent is separate from these Terms. You may decline marketing emails and still download.
5. Your documents and permissions
Your documents belong to you. We do not claim ownership of your files.
EazyReader is designed to work with files on your device or in folders you expressly choose. We do not automatically upload your document content to our servers when you open or read a file.
If you later use features that connect a folder, a document, or an AI tool, that happens only with your explicit permission and only for what you authorize. You are responsible for having the rights needed to open, edit, share, or process any file you use with EazyReader.
If you use editing and autosave, those features may write to files you have authorized. Keep your own backups. We are not responsible for lost, corrupted, or overwritten files, even though the product may include recovery or conflict tools where supported.
You may be asked, with your consent, to set EazyReader as the default application for Markdown files. This is optional and can be changed in your device or operating-system settings.
Browser extensions will request only the permissions they need to function. The extension does not have blanket access to arbitrary websites or files you have not granted.
Opening a document may cause the product to prompt you before loading remote images or other network content, so that a file does not silently contact other servers.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use EazyReader in violation of law, or with content you do not have the right to use
- Interfere with, disrupt, overload, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the product or related systems
- Bypass security, usage, referral, or payment limits, or create fake downloads or referrals
- Reverse engineer the product except to the extent the law allows
- Copy, distribute, rent, or resell the product, or use it to build a competing service through unauthorized use of our software
- Introduce malware or harm other users
- Misrepresent your identity or your authority to act for an organization
We may suspend or end access if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or if we reasonably believe there is fraud, abuse, or a security risk.
7. Paid plans and cancellation
Prices and plan details shown at checkout are the ones that apply to that purchase. Our current consumer plans are:
- Free: open, read, and organize local Markdown.
- EazyReader+: $5 per year, billed annually only.
You may refer a friend when EazyReader+ is available. This does not include a discounted subscription, a free year, or any other referral reward.
Subscriptions renew automatically at the then-current price unless you cancel before the renewal date. Cancellation stops future charges. It does not usually refund the current paid period, except where required by law or by the payment provider. If you bought through an app store, such as the Mac App Store, that store’s billing, cancellation, and refund rules control for that purchase.
After a paid plan ends, you keep your documents and the free ability to open, read, and organize local files. Access to EazyReader+ features ends when the paid period ends, subject to any brief offline grace period the product may provide. We will not silently delete your documents or, if you downloaded an optional local model, that model file, solely because a subscription ended. Use of a paid model after expiry may be limited as described in the product.
Payment may be processed by Stripe, Apple, or another provider identified at checkout. Their terms may also apply.
“Interested? Contact us.” requests are inquiries, not paid orders.
We may change prices or features with notice. A price change does not alter a period you have already paid, except as required by law.
8. Optional AI features
Optional AI features, including any on-device model you choose to download, are provided as a convenience. Outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable for your purpose. They are not legal, medical, financial, or other professional advice. You are responsible for reviewing any output before you rely on it or add it to a document.
On-device processing is intended to keep document content on your device. That is not a guarantee that no data will leave your device. For example, a document may itself load remote content, or you may later authorize a cloud or third-party connection.
A model may be unavailable on some hardware. We will describe download size, storage, and other requirements when you choose to download a model. You may need to accept additional model or third-party license terms before that download begins. You may cancel, remove, or decline a model. Doing so does not remove your ability to use free reading and organizing.
9. Our intellectual property
EazyReader, including the apps, extensions, website, text, design, and the EazyReader and spork.ai names and marks, is owned by us and our licensors. We grant you a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the product for your own purposes, in accordance with these Terms.
You may not copy, modify, distribute, publicly display, or create derivative works from our software, or remove proprietary notices, except as we expressly allow or as the law requires.
The product may include third-party or open-source components licensed under their own terms, which we will make available where required. Those terms govern those components.
If you send us feedback or suggestions, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use and incorporate them without obligation to you.
10. Third-party services
The product and website may rely on third parties, including:
- Google, for storing download and related business records
- Payment processors such as Stripe or Apple
- Browser and app stores, such as Apple, Google, or Mozilla, as applicable
Those services are provided by the third party and are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for services we do not control.
11. Changes, availability, and termination
We may update these Terms. We will post the updated version and, for material changes, try to notify you at the email you provided. The updated Terms take effect on the date we state. If you continue to use the product after that date, you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the product and cancel any paid plan.
We may change, suspend, or discontinue all or part of the product. We do not promise uninterrupted or error-free service.
You may stop using EazyReader at any time and uninstall it. Your local files remain on your device. We may suspend or end your access as described in these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and governing law, will survive.
12. Disclaimers
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EAZYREADER IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE PRODUCT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT FILES, DATA, OR AI OUTPUTS WILL BE ACCURATE OR NEVER LOST, ALTERED, OR CORRUPTED.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN DISCLAIMERS. IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS, THE DISCLAIMERS APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED. THIS DOES NOT AFFECT WARRANTIES OR RIGHTS THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING ANY NON-WAIVABLE CONSUMER RIGHTS.
13. Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE AND OUR OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND PARTNERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, OR BUSINESS, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE PRODUCT WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (US $50) OR THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR EAZYREADER IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THESE LIMITATIONS. IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS, OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
14. Indemnity
You will defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from and against claims, damages, losses, and reasonable legal fees arising out of your misuse of the product, your content, or your violation of these Terms or of another person’s rights, except to the extent a claim is caused by our own willful misconduct or negligence.
15. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of [State, USA], without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If mandatory consumer protection laws in the place where you live apply, those laws also apply and are not overridden by this section.
Except where the law of your place of residence requires otherwise, the courts located in [County, State, USA] will have jurisdiction over disputes arising out of these Terms.
Before filing a claim, please contact us at [support or legal email] so we can try to resolve the issue informally.
This draft does not include arbitration or a class-action waiver. Ask counsel whether those should be added.
16. General
If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our prior consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, consistent with the Privacy Notice.
These Terms and the Privacy Notice are the entire agreement between you and us concerning EazyReader, and they supersede prior agreements on that subject. If short on-screen summary text conflicts with this document, this document controls, except that additional terms stated at checkout or by an app store may apply to a specific purchase.
Headings are for convenience only.
