Hoy - End User License Agreement (EULA)

Last updated: August 2026

Please read this agreement carefully before downloading, installing, or using Hoy. By using the software, you agree to the terms of this End User License Agreement ("Agreement").

1. License Grant

Dominik Kandravý ("Developer") grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use Hoy.

Free tier: use of Hoy at no cost, including your personal channel, joining an unlimited number of channels, and hosting one channel.

Hoy Pro: an active Hoy Pro subscription additionally allows hosting an unlimited number of channels, on up to 2 devices per license.

2. Subscription, Lapse, and Refunds

Hoy Pro is a yearly subscription. Purchases, billing, renewal, cancellation, and refunds are processed by Polar (polar.sh) acting as merchant of record, subject to their terms.

If your subscription ends, Hoy reverts to the free tier. Channels you hosted while subscribed remain functional and accessible; a lapsed subscription only removes the ability to host new channels beyond the free tier. The Developer reserves the right to change pricing and tier limits for future purchases; changes will not remove access to channels you already host.

3. Your Content

Hoy transmits and stores your content (notes, files, recordings) exclusively through Apple's iCloud (CloudKit), using your own iCloud account and the accounts of channel participants. The Developer operates no server for your content and has no access to it, and therefore no ability to view, moderate, recover, or delete it.

You are solely responsible for the content you share and for complying with applicable law when using Hoy. You must not use Hoy to share content that is illegal or that infringes the rights of others. Your use of iCloud is subject to Apple's terms and your iCloud storage limits; channels you host count against your iCloud storage.

4. Restrictions

You may not:

• Copy, redistribute, resell, sublicense, rent, or lease the software

• Reverse engineer, decompile, modify, or attempt to derive the source code of the software

• Use Hoy Pro on more devices than permitted by your license

• Share, publish, or distribute license keys or activation credentials

5. Ownership

Hoy and all related intellectual property rights remain the exclusive property of the Developer. This Agreement grants you a license to use the software and does not transfer ownership of the software to you. Your content remains yours; the Developer claims no rights to it.

6. Updates

The Developer may provide updates, bug fixes, modifications, or feature changes at any time and at the Developer's sole discretion. Updates may be delivered automatically through Sparkle auto-update functionality. App's features may change significantly between versions.

7. Disclaimer of Warranty

Hoy is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. The Developer does not guarantee that the software will be error-free, secure, or uninterrupted, or that content transmitted through iCloud will be delivered, preserved, or recoverable.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Developer shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of data, loss of profits, or business interruption, arising out of or related to the use or inability to use Hoy.

In no event shall the Developer's total liability exceed the amount paid by you for your subscription in the 12 months preceding the claim.

9. Termination

This license remains effective until terminated. The Agreement will terminate automatically if you fail to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination, you must cease all use of the software and uninstall all copies of Hoy.

Sections relating to ownership, warranty disclaimers, and limitation of liability shall survive termination.

10. Privacy and Connectivity

Hoy connects to: Apple's iCloud (CloudKit) for all channel content and synchronization, under your own iCloud account; Polar (polar.sh) for license validation when you purchase Hoy Pro; and the Developer's servers (heyiam.dk) to check for and deliver software updates. The Developer does not use Hoy to collect analytics or tracking data. License validation is subject to Polar's privacy policy; iCloud usage is subject to Apple's.

11. Governing Law

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Czech Republic, without regard to conflict of law principles
