Terms of Service

MDStack is the trading name of David Robertson, a sole trader of Collingwood Buildings, 38 Collingwood Street, Newcastle, NE1 1JF, United Kingdom. You can reach us at hello@mdstack.co.uk. In these terms, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean MDStack.

We provide privacy-first applications and related services on a fixed-term licence basis. We work to keep the service available and maintained, but it is provided “as is” and “as available”, and we do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or available at all times.

• All prices are shown in pounds sterling (GBP, £).
• We are not VAT-registered, so no VAT is charged on our prices.
• All plans are fixed-term, prepaid, and do not auto-renew. Access ends at the close of the term you paid for unless you purchase a new term.
• Your order is confirmed and the contract concluded when we approve your request and issue the corresponding invoice.

You agree not to:

• Use the service for any unlawful purpose or in breach of any applicable law or regulation
• Attempt to disrupt, overload, gain unauthorised access to, or interfere with the service or its billing platform
• Reverse-engineer, resell, or sublicense the software except as expressly permitted
• Use the service to store or distribute unlawful, infringing, or harmful content

A purchased licence is personal to you, granted per seat, and is non-transferable unless we agree otherwise in writing. We (or our licensors) retain all intellectual property rights in the software and the site.

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded under the law of England and Wales — including your statutory rights as a consumer.

Subject to that:

• We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of business, or loss of data. (MDStack apps are local-first; you remain responsible for your own backups.)
• Our total liability to you arising out of or in connection with the service is limited to the total amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

If you are a consumer, nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. See our Refund & Cancellation Policy for details.

We may update these terms from time to time. The “last updated” date above reflects the current version. Continued use of the service after a change means you accept the updated terms.

These terms and any dispute arising out of them are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. If you are a consumer resident elsewhere in the UK, you may also bring proceedings in your home jurisdiction.
