Webstarted Toolbox
Terms and Conditions of Use — version 1.5 (2026-08-16)
IMPORTANT: READ THESE TERMS BEFORE USING THE SOFTWARE. By installing, copying, or
using Webstarted Toolbox (the "Software") you agree to be bound by these Terms. If
you do not agree, do not use the Software.
These Terms are entered into between you (the "User") and Webstarted LLC, a
limited liability company incorporated in the State of Florida, United States of
America (the "Company"), holder of all rights in and to the Software.
To accept these Terms you must be old enough to enter into a binding contract where
you live. If you are not, you may use the Software only with the consent of a parent
or legal guardian, who accepts these Terms on your behalf.
1. GRANT OF LICENSE
Subject to compliance with these Terms, the Company grants you a worldwide,
non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to install and use the
Software, at no cost, on the devices you control, for personal use. Revocation is
governed by Section 14: for as long as you comply with these Terms, the Company
will not revoke your license.
Use in a work context: while the Software is in beta, you may also use it for
your work at no cost. If you are going to deploy it across an organization's
machines, or you want written terms for your company, write to us at
apps-support@webstarted.com to arrange separate terms.
Paid versions and features: the Company may in the future offer paid versions,
plans, or features, including commercial or enterprise arrangements, and may
require a commercial license for use by organizations in later versions of the
Software. Their scope, price, and conditions will be disclosed at the time of
purchase. None of this retroactively turns the no-cost personal use you have
already been making into paid use. Note, however, that each version of the
Software has a limited operating period, as described in Section 2.
2. BETA SOFTWARE
The Software is currently offered as a beta (pre-1.0) release. Features may
change, be replaced, or be removed between updates; defects are to be expected;
and an update or a defect may cause the content and configuration stored on your
device to be LOST. Keep your own backups of anything you cannot afford to lose
(the Software includes an optional iCloud backup on macOS, and you can copy its
configuration folder at any time). While the Software is in beta, do not rely on
it as your only system for alarms, reminders, or record-keeping. The disclaimer
of warranties and the limitation of liability below apply with special force to
beta software.
Operating period of each version: each version of the Software stops working
after a period of time from the date it was built, and from then on you must
update in order to keep using it. The exact date on which the version you have
installed stops working is shown on the "About" screen, and the Software warns
you in-app ahead of that date. Before it stops working it attempts to update
itself and, if it cannot, it tells you where to download the current version.
Your content and your configuration are not deleted or modified for this reason:
they remain in the Software's data folder on your device, and the expiry notice
itself shows you where that folder is so you can copy them whenever you want,
including after that date.
3. RESTRICTIONS
You may not: (a) resell, sublicense, rent, or redistribute the Software; (b) modify
the Software, or distribute tools, in order to circumvent or disable its license or
update controls (the date and time settings of your own device are not covered by
this restriction); (c) reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software,
except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law; (d) use the Software
for unlawful activities.
4. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Software is licensed, not sold. The Company and its licensors retain all
rights, title, and interest in and to the Software, including trademarks, logos,
and source code. No rights are granted to you other than those expressly set out
in these Terms.
The Software includes third-party open source components. Each component
belongs to its author and is governed by its own license; for that component,
that license prevails over these Terms, and nothing in these Terms reduces the
rights that license grants you. The list of components, with their licenses and
notices, is available in the Software (About → Third-party licenses).
5. YOUR CONTENT AND CONFIGURATION
The notes, tasks, links, snippets, and other content and configuration you create
with the Software belong to you. The Company makes no claim of ownership over
them. You are responsible for the content you manage and for having the necessary
permissions.
Some widgets can run commands, scripts, network requests, or automations that
YOU configure, or launch applications you choose. That configuration is your
content: whatever runs from it is deemed done by you, and you are responsible
for reviewing it, testing it, and for its results, including what those programs
or services do outside the Software. This does not extend to outcomes caused by
a defect in the Software.
6. PRIVACY AND LOCAL PROCESSING
The Software stores your configuration and content on your device, and does not
transmit them to the Company. This is distinct from the network queries some
widgets need to make in order to work, which are described in Section 7. And there
are two optional features, which you enable yourself, in which part of that data
does leave your device — never to the Company:
(a) iCloud sync: if enabled, your configuration is copied to your own Apple
iCloud Drive to sync across your devices. It travels through your iCloud
account, not the Company's servers.
(b) Usage statistics: if enabled, the Software keeps local, anonymous usage
counters (which widget is opened and when) to show you your own statistics.
Content (notes, links, clipboard, credentials) is never captured, and those
counters are not sent to any server. You can disable and delete them anytime
from Settings.
If sending aggregated statistics to the Company is ever offered, it will be under
an explicit, separate consent, distinct from acceptance of these Terms.
7. NETWORK SERVICES
Some widgets need to query network services in order to work. Those services may
belong to third parties — for example, weather forecasts, exchange rates, stock
and cryptocurrency prices, news feeds, or translation services — or they may be
endpoints operated by the Company. When you use those widgets, the query the
feature needs (for example, the text you ask to translate, a city name, a ticker
symbol, or a request to learn your public IP address) reaches the corresponding
operator together with your IP address and the technical information inherent to
any network connection. The Software endeavors to send only what the feature
needs.
Where the endpoint is operated by the Company, the processing is described in the
Privacy Policy, which is kept up to date and identifies the services currently in
use. Where the service belongs to a third party, that party's own terms and
privacy policy apply. The widgets available, and the services each of them
queries, may change between versions of the Software and between catalog updates.
Third-party services are independent from the Company: they may change, become
limited, fail, or be discontinued at any time, and the Company does not control
them and does not guarantee their availability, accuracy, continuity, or data
practices. The Software integrating with a service does not imply that the
Company endorses the third party or that the third party endorses the Software.
Where a service requires an account or an API key of yours, you are responsible
for that account, its key, its limits, and any charges its use incurs.
The Software also connects to services operated by the Company or by its
infrastructure providers in order to check for updates and to offer the widget
catalog. Those connections transmit your IP address and the technical information
inherent to a network connection; the processing is described in the Privacy
Policy.
Data obtained from third parties (including prices and market data) is provided
for informational purposes only, may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate, and
does NOT constitute financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.
The optional AI chat connects to an endpoint that YOU configure (a local model or
a remote provider with your own API key). What you type in that chat is sent to
the endpoint you chose, under that provider's terms; the Company does not operate
that endpoint and is not responsible for it. AI-generated output can be
incorrect, incomplete, or inappropriate: review it before relying on it for
important decisions.
8. "SEND TO ANOTHER DEVICE" FEATURE (LOCAL NETWORK)
The Software can discover and send text or images to other instances on your
local network. Content travels UNENCRYPTED over your network: use this feature
only on trusted networks. The feature opens network ports only while you have it
enabled and are on its tab.
9. AGENT INTERFACE (MCP)
The Software includes an optional, off-by-default local agent server (MCP) that
lets AI agents or other programs on your device operate the widgets on your
behalf. If you enable it, whatever those agents do through that interface is
deemed done by you: you are responsible for the agents and tools you connect,
for the token that protects the interface, and for the results of the actions
they perform. This does not extend to outcomes caused by a defect in the Software.
10. WIDGETS AND CATALOGS
The Software lets you install and remove additional widgets. Widgets published by
the Company in its official catalog are part of the Software and subject to these
Terms; the Company may add, modify, or discontinue them, and the catalog itself,
at any time.
The Software also lets you install third-party widgets and add catalogs the
Company does not operate. Those widgets are NOT part of the Software: their author
retains all rights in them, and the Company does not provide, review, endorse, or
license them in any way. Their use is governed by whatever terms their author
supplies.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company offers no
warranty and no support for third-party widgets or for catalogs it does not
operate, and is not liable for them, for their operation, their content, the
data they transmit, or any damages they may cause, including loss of data. Installing a third-party widget or adding a catalog the Company does
not operate is your decision: the Software shows you the recorded provenance of
each installed widget and whether its signature could be verified. The Company may
remove or block widgets from its own catalog, and assumes no obligation to monitor
catalogs it does not operate. Nothing in this Section applies to defects in the
Software.
11. UPDATES AND CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
The Company may offer updates, patches, or new versions of the Software, which are
subject to these Terms. An update to the Software does not by itself change these
Terms.
The Company may modify these Terms. Each version of the document carries a number
and a date, shown in its header. Where a change affects your rights or obligations,
the Company publishes a new version and the Software asks you to accept it before
you continue using it; if you do not accept it, you may stop using the Software.
Corrections that do not affect rights or obligations — a wording clarification, a
translation fix, a change of contact address — may be made without issuing a new
version. Previous versions remain published on the Company's website.
12. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY
KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, TO THE
MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. IN PARTICULAR, THE COMPANY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT
ALARMS, TIMERS, REMINDERS, OR NOTIFICATIONS WILL FIRE ON TIME OR AT ALL: DO NOT
USE THE SOFTWARE FOR SAFETY-CRITICAL PURPOSES.
13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, NOR FOR LOSS OF DATA,
LOSS OF PROFITS, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE USE OF
OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE.
14. TERMINATION
These Terms remain in effect until terminated. You may terminate them at any time
by ceasing to use the Software and uninstalling it. The Company may terminate your
license if you materially breach these Terms; if that breach is curable and you
cure it, your license is reinstated. Upon termination, you must cease using the
Software and delete all copies thereof. Termination does not delete or modify your
content, which remains on your device.
15. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States of
America, without giving effect to any conflict-of-law provisions. Any dispute
shall be submitted to the state or federal courts sitting in the State of
Florida, and the parties consent to their exclusive jurisdiction, without
prejudice to any non-waivable rights you may hold under the consumer protection
laws of your place of residence.
16. SEVERABILITY
If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision of these Terms invalid or
unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent
necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
