Legal
Terms of Service
These terms explain how Comics Translate licenses, support, and app usage work during the manual sales MVP.
Effective date: July 5, 2026
1. Product
Comics Translate is a macOS desktop app for preparing manga or comic pages, reading text with OCR, translating with AI, and rendering translated text back onto the page.
2. One-time purchase
Licenses are sold as one-time purchases. There is no monthly subscription. Standard and Pro are separate licenses. If you buy Standard and later want Pro, a new Pro license purchase may be required unless support offers another arrangement in writing.
3. License activation
Each license key is intended for one trusted device. Activation may bind the key to a device identifier so the app can unlock translation, repair, Vision Fix, and render actions. We may revoke, reissue, or replace a license when needed for support, abuse prevention, refunds, or device changes.
4. Your AI API key
The app uses your own Google Gemini API key. Any Gemini usage limits, charges, model availability, or account rules are controlled by Google. Comics Translate does not include unlimited AI usage.
5. AI translation results
AI and OCR results may be imperfect. You are responsible for reviewing translated output before relying on it, publishing it, or sharing it.
6. Your content and rights
You are responsible for the manga, comics, images, URLs, and files you use with the app. Only use content when you have the right or permission to do so. Comics Translate does not grant rights to third-party manga or comic content.
7. Manual sales and support
During the MVP period, purchases and support may be handled manually through support@comicstranslate.com. Refunds, license reissues, and device changes are reviewed case by case.
8. macOS early distribution
Comics Translate is currently macOS-first. Early MVP builds may not yet be Apple notarized. macOS may show a security warning when opening the app for the first time.
9. Changes
We may update these terms as the product, payment flow, licensing, and support process improve. The latest version will be published on this page.
