TorrentMax End User License Agreement
This agreement governs the TorrentMax desktop application. The same terms are presented by the installer. By downloading, installing, or using TorrentMax, you agree to them.
1. Parties and scope
This agreement is between you and Systomax Technologies (“Systomax”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) and applies to the TorrentMax desktop application, including its installer, portable build, updates, documentation, and related materials provided by Systomax (the “Software”). If you use the Software on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” includes the organization.
2. License grant
Subject to your compliance with this agreement, Systomax grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the Software on devices that you own or control, solely for your personal use or your organization’s internal business purposes. You may make one copy of the Software for backup or archival purposes, provided that the copy contains all copyright and proprietary notices.
The Software is licensed, not sold. No ownership rights are transferred to you. All rights not expressly granted in this agreement are reserved by Systomax and its licensors.
3. Restrictions
You must not, and must not permit anyone else to:
- copy, distribute, publish, sublicense, rent, lease, lend, sell, resell, or otherwise make the Software available to any third party;
- modify, translate, adapt, or create derivative works of the Software;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the Software, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits and cannot be excluded by agreement;
- remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, license, or other proprietary notice in the Software;
- use the Software to develop, train, or improve a competing product, or to extract data or functionality for a competing product;
- use the Software in a service-bureau, time-sharing, hosting, or managed-service arrangement for third parties;
- circumvent any technical limitation, access control, or licensing mechanism in the Software; or
- use the Software in violation of applicable law or in a way that infringes the rights of any person.
4. Content and BitTorrent use
TorrentMax is a BitTorrent client. It does not host, index, publish, or provide content. You are solely responsible for the files, torrents, magnet links, and other material that you download, upload, share, or access using the Software, and for ensuring that you have all rights and permissions required to do so.
The Software may connect to third-party peers, trackers, web seeds, and other services. Systomax does not control those services and is not responsible for their content, availability, security, or privacy practices. TorrentMax does not provide anonymity, a VPN, or a guarantee that your network activity will be private. You are responsible for complying with the laws, network policies, and terms of service that apply to you.
BitTorrent is a trademark of BitTorrent, Inc. TorrentMax is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by BitTorrent, Inc.
5. Third-party components
The Software includes third-party software components that are licensed under their own terms. Those terms are reproduced in the THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.md file distributed with the Software. To the extent a third-party license grants rights that conflict with this agreement, that license controls for the applicable component. Nothing in this agreement limits your rights under an applicable third-party license.
6. Privacy
The Software stores settings, torrent metadata, and download information locally on your device. TorrentMax 3.0.7 does not require an account for normal desktop use and does not include advertising or third-party analytics. The Software sends an anonymous install check-in by default, containing a random install identifier, the app version, and the operating system platform, so the project can measure active installations. It never includes torrent names, file paths, download history, account details, or file contents, and it can be disabled in Settings → About. The optional TorrentMax Remote feature requires an account and sends authenticated commands and status through the TorrentMax website; downloaded file contents stay on your device. The TorrentMax website may record installer download requests and Remote account data as described in the Privacy Policy. By using the Software, you acknowledge that you have read that policy.
7. Updates and changes
Systomax may provide updates, patches, or new versions of the Software. Updates are part of the Software and are governed by this agreement unless an update is accompanied by separate terms. Systomax is not obligated to provide updates, support, or maintenance unless a separate written agreement says otherwise. Systomax may change or discontinue the Software at any time.
8. Term and termination
This agreement is effective until terminated. It terminates automatically if you breach any term of this agreement. Systomax may also terminate this agreement if you violate applicable law or use the Software in a way that creates risk or liability for Systomax or others. On termination, you must stop using the Software and delete all copies you possess or control. Sections 3 through 13 survive termination.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Software is provided “as is” and “as available”, with all faults and without warranty of any kind. Systomax disclaims all express, implied, and statutory warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, quiet enjoyment, and uninterrupted or error-free operation. Systomax does not warrant that the Software will be free of viruses, malware, or other harmful components, or that any torrent, file, tracker, peer, or other content will be available, legal, safe, or free of errors.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Systomax and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, and licensors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, arising out of or relating to the Software or this agreement, even if Systomax has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Systomax’s total aggregate liability under this agreement will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid Systomax for the Software in the twelve months preceding the claim, or (b) fifty U.S. dollars (USD 50.00).
11. Consumer rights
Nothing in this agreement excludes or limits any liability or right that cannot be excluded or limited by applicable law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any mandatory consumer protection right. If you are a consumer, you may also have statutory rights that this agreement does not override.
12. Export and legal compliance
You must comply with all applicable export control, sanctions, and import laws. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to comprehensive trade sanctions and are not a person barred from receiving the Software under applicable law. You must not use the Software for unlawful file sharing, copyright infringement, malware distribution, harassment, or any other illegal activity.
13. Governing law and disputes
This agreement is governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Systomax Technologies maintains its principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to any mandatory consumer protections, the courts located in that jurisdiction will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or relating to this agreement or the Software. Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.
14. General
This agreement is the entire agreement between you and Systomax regarding the Software and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements on that subject. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign or transfer this agreement without Systomax’s prior written consent. Systomax may assign this agreement in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets. Headings are for convenience only. This agreement is written in English, and the English version controls.
