Terms of use

Last updated: 29 October 2026

1. Who is who

Sparehand is made and licensed by Mumin Mohamed ("the seller", "I"). Lemon Squeezy is the reseller and merchant of record: it sells the licence to you, takes payment, handles tax and issues receipts. Its own terms apply to the purchase.

2. The licence

When you buy, you get a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use Sparehand. One licence covers one person's Macs: you may install it on all Macs that you personally use. It may not be shared with, or used by, other people. You may not copy, resell or redistribute the software, or remove licence checks. Third-party parts included in the app remain under their own licences.

3. Free trial

The first 14 days are a full free trial, with no card needed. After the trial you need a licence to keep using the app.

4. Price and updates

Sparehand is sold as a yearly subscription. The price is shown on the pricing page and at checkout; taxes may be added where required. The subscription renews each year at the price then shown, until you cancel it, which you can do at any time from your order page. A cancelled subscription runs to the end of the year already paid for. Every update released while your subscription runs is included. When a subscription ends, the app keeps your machines and settings and runs jobs on your own Mac only, until you subscribe again.

5. How Sparehand works, and your responsibilities

Sparehand runs on your own computers and sends your files and commands only between them, over SSH. It does not copy .env files. It does not send telemetry. It contacts Lemon Squeezy to check your licence, this website for updates and ollama.com for the list of AI models. It contacts other outside services only when you connect them yourself: cloud AI providers whose key you add, cloud machine providers whose credential you add, and the services behind features such as Studio and Crew. Those services' own terms apply to your use of them, and what they charge is between you and them. The privacy policy lists them all.

Crew, Studio, members, cloud machines and cloud AI providers are offered as beta features: they work, but may change, and may have rough edges. They are part of the licence, not a separate promise.

Sparehand lets one of your computers run commands on others. You are responsible for the computers you connect, for having the right to use them, for keeping them secure (the docs explain how), and for backing up your work. Only add machines you own or are allowed to use.

6. Refunds

Because there is a full free trial, please try before you buy. Refund requests are handled through Lemon Squeezy under its refund rules and any rights you have under the law where you live. Nothing here limits your statutory rights.

7. No guarantees, and limits on liability

Sparehand is provided "as is". It runs commands and moves files for you, and I cannot promise it will be error-free or suit your purpose. To the extent the law allows, I am not liable for lost data, lost profits or indirect damage, and my total liability is limited to the price you paid for the licence. This does not limit liability that cannot be limited by law.

8. Ending the licence

You may stop using Sparehand at any time. I may end a licence if these terms are seriously broken, for example by sharing it widely or reselling it.

9. Changes

I may update these terms. Changes do not affect a licence you already bought in ways that make it worse for you, and the new version will be posted here with a new date.
