Terms of Service
Effective: March 31, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Hoodik mobile and desktop application ("App") and the Hoodik self-hosted cloud storage software ("Software"), provided by Hudik d.o.o., Croatia ("we", "us", "our"). By using the App or Software, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
2. Description of Service
Hoodik is a self-hosted, end-to-end encrypted cloud storage system. The App connects to your self-hosted Hoodik server instance. We provide the software — you provide and manage your own server infrastructure. We do not host, operate, or manage servers on behalf of users.
3. Software License
- The Hoodik server software is open source and licensed under CC BY-NC 4.0, with separate commercial licensing available.
- The Hoodik App is proprietary software provided under these Terms. You may not reverse-engineer, decompile, or redistribute the App.
4. Subscriptions and Payments
The App requires an active subscription or lifetime purchase after the free trial period.
- Monthly: $4.99/month
- Annual: $39.99/year
- Lifetime: $149.99 (one-time purchase)
Payments are processed through the Apple App Store or Google Play. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. You can manage or cancel subscriptions through your App Store or Google Play account settings.
Refunds are subject to the policies of Apple or Google, as applicable.
Lifetime purchases grant access for the lifetime of the product (the Hoodik App), not the lifetime of the purchaser. If the App is discontinued, lifetime access ends. Prices may change with reasonable advance notice; existing subscriptions are not affected until renewal.
5. Free Trial
A 30-day free trial is available for new users. All features are unlocked during the trial period. If you do not subscribe before the trial ends, access to the App's features will be restricted.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SOFTWARE AND APP ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE OR APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE ENCRYPTION WILL PREVENT ALL UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS — WHILE WE USE INDUSTRY-STANDARD CRYPTOGRAPHIC ALGORITHMS, NO SYSTEM IS INFALLIBLE.
WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE SUITABILITY OF THE SOFTWARE OR APP FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
7. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HUDIK D.O.O. SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE APP OR SOFTWARE.
OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM. THIS LIMITATION APPLIES REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE).
8. User Responsibility
- You are solely responsible for your own server infrastructure, its security, maintenance, and availability.
- You are solely responsible for the data you store, transmit, or process using the Software or App.
- You are responsible for maintaining backups of your data and encryption keys.
- If you lose your private encryption key, your data cannot be recovered by anyone, including us. We have no access to your keys or data.
- You must comply with all applicable laws when using the Software and App.
9. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Software or App for any unlawful purpose.
- Attempt to circumvent the subscription or licensing system.
- Distribute the App or use it in a manner that violates these Terms.
10. Developer's Limited Role
We provide a software tool. That's it. We want to be explicit about what we do not do:
- We do not host, store, or have access to your data.
- We cannot recover lost data or encryption keys.
- We are not responsible for the content stored on user-operated servers.
- We have no obligation to monitor or moderate user content.
- We have no ability to access, modify, or delete data on your self-hosted server.
11. Intellectual Property
The Hoodik name, logo, and App are the property of Hudik d.o.o. The server software is licensed under CC BY-NC 4.0 with separate commercial licensing available.
12. Termination
We may revoke your app subscription or license if you violate these Terms. You can stop using the App at any time by cancelling your subscription and uninstalling it.
Since Hoodik is self-hosted, we have no ability to access, modify, or delete data on your server. The server software continues to function independently of the App. Your server and your data remain entirely yours.
13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Croatia. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be resolved in the courts of Osijek, Croatia.
For EU consumers: you may also use the European Online Dispute Resolution platform.
14. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable or invalid, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
15. Changes to These Terms
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated through the App or this website. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
