Terms. The short version.
These terms cover both the free and paid versions of JEP supplied by Mark Wright. By downloading, buying, or using JEP, you agree to them. If anything is unclear, email us.
A license to use JEP.
You're buying a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use JEP on the machines you reasonably own or control. The license is tied to your email, not to a specific machine.
Install on computers that are reasonably yours — your personal laptop, your home desktop, or a second machine for travel. Mac and Windows are sold as separate platform licenses. We don't enforce a machine count and trust you to make a reasonable call.
A license is for one person. Do not share your license key publicly, post it to forums, or use one key across an organization. If you want JEP for a household or a small team, email us — we can do that, but the default is one person, one license.
All updates throughout version 1 are included with your license. A future major version may be offered as a paid upgrade, but upgrading will always be optional.
The free version is licensed the same way as paid, with the same warranties and the same limits of liability, except it is limited to one locked folder with no subfolders. The free tier is not a trial — you can use it forever.
14 days, no questions asked.
If JEP doesn't fit, you can ask for a refund within 14 days of purchase. We don't ask why. Refunds are processed by Gumroad, who runs our checkout.
Email help@justenoughprivacy.com with your Gumroad order number, or use Gumroad's "request a refund" link in your purchase receipt. Refunds typically appear on your card within a few business days, depending on your bank.
Refunds outside the 14-day window are at our discretion and case-dependent. If the app stops working after a future update, that's our problem, not yours — email us and we'll figure it out.
A refund ends your paid license. JEP does not remotely alter, disable, or lock folders on your computer. Before removing the app, unlock any managed folders. After a reinstall, a cleanly locked folder can be re-adopted using its recovery sidecar and the same PIN. Email help@justenoughprivacy.com if you need help.
Use JEP lawfully.
JEP is licensed for lawful personal use. You are responsible for the folders and content you choose to manage.
You must use JEP in accordance with the laws that apply to you. JEP does not change any obligation to preserve, disclose, or provide access to information when legally required.
Do not publish or share your license key, distribute or resell JEP, sublicense or repackage the app, or circumvent its free-tier limits.
What we promise and what we don't.
JEP is provided as-is. The honest position from the landing page applies here in legal form: JEP protects against casual local access, nothing more.
JEP is provided "as is," without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Software has bugs. We work to fix them; we cannot guarantee none exist.
Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of your use of JEP is limited to the amount you paid for the license, or CAD $50, whichever is greater. We are not liable for loss of data, loss of revenue, loss of opportunity, or any other indirect or consequential damages.
Within the limits above, we make one specific commitment: Every clean lock includes a .jep-recovery sidecar. It lets JEP re-adopt the folder after a reinstall when you use the same PIN. The sidecar is not a substitute for the PIN. If you forget the PIN but JEP's local application data still exists, support can retrieve the stored PIN.
JEP is not encryption. It does not defend against forensic analysis, malware, administrative access, or law enforcement. The product documentation and marketing copy say this in plain English; the Terms say it too. Do not rely on JEP for protections it does not provide.
If we end your license.
We may end a paid license after a material breach of these terms, a refund, or a payment dispute. This may prevent future activation of the paid version. It does not give us remote access to the app or your folders, and it does not remove local app data or recovery sidecars from your computer.
Ontario, Canada.
JEP is operated by Mark Wright. These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable in Ontario. Any disputes that cannot be resolved by email will be resolved in the courts of Ontario.
If these terms change.
We'll update the "last updated" date at the top and email everyone who's bought a license if the change materially affects your rights. Continuing to use JEP after a change means you accept the new terms.
