Terms of Service
Last updated: September 28, 2026
1. Agreement to Terms
By purchasing, downloading, installing, or using MinuteKeep ("the Software"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Software.
These Terms constitute a legal agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and Ownerstate Software, the publisher of MinuteKeep ("we," "us," or "our").
2. License Grant
2.1 License Type
Microsoft Store Windows edition: Your purchase and installation entitlement is associated with your Microsoft account and governed by the Microsoft Store terms shown at purchase. This edition does not use a separate MinuteKeep license key.
Mac App Store edition: Your purchase and installation entitlement is associated with your Apple Account and governed by Apple's App Store terms. This edition does not use a separate MinuteKeep license key.
2.2 Permitted Use
Your license permits you to:
- Install the Windows edition on devices permitted by your Microsoft Store entitlement
- Install the Mac App Store edition on devices permitted by your Apple purchase entitlement
- Use the Software for personal or commercial business purposes
- Create backups of the Software and your data
- Install maintenance and security updates made available for your licensed version
- Export your data at any time in multiple formats
2.3 Restrictions
You may not:
- Redistribute the app outside the applicable Store license terms
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software
- Use the Software to develop competing products
- Use the Software in any way that violates applicable laws
3. Licensing by Distribution Channel
The Microsoft Store Windows edition does not issue MinuteKeep license keys. It is one Microsoft-account entitlement, not two keys. Under Microsoft's current Store rules it may be installed on up to 10 compatible Windows devices associated with that account; Microsoft manages and may change those account and device rules.
The Mac App Store edition does not issue a MinuteKeep key. Apple manages purchase authorization, installation entitlement, and App Store updates through your Apple Account.
Each distribution channel is a separate purchase. A Microsoft Store entitlement or Mac App Store entitlement does not unlock or transfer to another edition.
For Store account, purchase, installation-limit or refund issues, contact the store where you purchased MinuteKeep. For app support, contact [email protected].
4. Payment and Refunds
4.1 Payment
MinuteKeep is sold as a one-time purchase in each distribution channel. Windows purchases are processed by Microsoft Store, and Mac App Store purchases are processed by Apple, using the currency, price, tax treatment, and payment methods displayed by that Store for your account and region. The editions are separate purchases.
4.2 Refund Policy
Microsoft Store purchases and refund requests are handled under Microsoft's terms of sale and applicable Store policies.
Mac App Store purchases and refund requests are handled under Apple's terms of sale and applicable App Store policies.
5. Software Updates
Ownerstate Software may make maintenance, security, compatibility, or feature updates available. Updates may include:
- Bug fixes and security patches
- New features and improvements
- Compatibility updates for new operating systems
Microsoft Store delivers updates for the Windows Store edition, and Apple delivers updates for the Mac App Store edition.
We may change or discontinue update availability, features, or online services. Your perpetual right to use the purchased version remains subject to these Terms.
6. Data and Privacy
MinuteKeep stores corporate-record content locally on your computer. Ownerstate Software does not have access to that content. Store-managed purchases and updates, and any earlier-purchase recovery requests, process the limited technical data described in our Privacy Policy.
You are solely responsible for:
- Backing up your data regularly
