End User License Agreement & Terms of Use
This End User License Agreement (“Agreement”) is a legal agreement between you (“you” or “User”) and Niko Nishimine, doing business as “ChatExtender” (“Licensor,” “we,” “us”) for the ChatExtender software application (“Software”). By installing, activating, or using the Software, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.
1. License Grant
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement and payment of any applicable fees, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use one copy of the Software on devices you own or control, for your own personal or internal use.
2. Restrictions
You may not: (a) resell, sublicense, rent, or redistribute the Software or your license key; (b) reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by law; (c) remove or alter any proprietary notices; or (d) use the Software to violate any law or the terms of any third-party service.
3. Third-Party Services
The Software works alongside third-party services including ChatGPT (OpenAI) and Claude (Anthropic) through your own logged-in accounts. We do not control these services. We make no guarantee regarding their availability, functionality, pricing, or continued compatibility, and the Software may stop working at any time if these services change. You are solely responsible for your use of those services, including compliance with their respective terms of service. You acknowledge that your access to or use of those third-party services through any means is governed by your agreements with those providers, and that we are not responsible for any consequence to your third-party accounts arising from your use of the Software.
4. No Affiliation; Trademarks
ChatExtender is an independent product. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or in any way officially connected with OpenAI, Anthropic, or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates. “ChatGPT,” “OpenAI,” “Claude,” “Anthropic,” and related names and marks are the property of their respective owners and are used only for identification and descriptive purposes.
5. Privacy & Your Data
The Software is designed to run locally on your device. Your conversations and content are stored locally on your machine and are not collected, transmitted to, or accessible by us. License activation transmits only your license key and a device identifier to our licensing provider for the purpose of validating your license. We do not sell your data.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SOFTWARE 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, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Software will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that it will remain compatible with any third-party service. You use the Software at your own risk.
7. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE OR THIS AGREEMENT. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.
8. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of the Software, your violation of this Agreement, or your violation of any third-party rights or terms of service.

This Agreement is effective until terminated. It terminates automatically if you breach it. Upon termination, you must stop using and delete the Software. Sections 3 through 8 survive termination.
11. Changes to This Agreement
We may update this Agreement from time to time. Continued use of the Software after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
