Vinyx Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-11-02

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Hugo Software ("we", "us", "our") for your use of Vinyx: DJ Mixer & Drum Machine (the "App"), package ID com.hugosoftware.vinyx, for Android. By downloading, installing or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not install or use the App.

1. License Grant

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on Android devices that you own or control, for your own non-commercial or personal creative use, subject to these Terms and the Google Play Terms of Service.

Your use of the App is also subject to Google Play's usage rules. If these Terms conflict with Google Play's mandatory terms, Google Play's terms prevail to the extent of the conflict.

2. License Restrictions

You agree not to:

• Copy, modify, translate or create derivative works of the App.
• Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or attempt to extract the source code of the App, except where applicable law permits it despite this restriction.
• Rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense or redistribute the App.
• Circumvent, disable or tamper with the subscription check, billing features or any security or access-control mechanism.
• Extract, rip or reuse the App's built-in drum kits or generated sounds as a standalone sound library, or distribute them separately from your own musical creations.
• Use the App in any way that violates applicable law.

You may use the App's sounds as part of your own mixes and recordings.

3. Acceptable Use

You are solely responsible for the music files you load into the App and for the recordings you create, save or share. You agree that you will:

• Only mix, record and share music and audio that you own or have the necessary rights, licenses or permissions to use.
• Not use the App to infringe the copyright, trademark, privacy or other rights of any person.
• Not share or publish recordings that are unlawful, defamatory, hateful or otherwise harmful.
• Use the App safely. Do not use it in a way that distracts you from driving or other activities where inattention could cause harm, and keep playback at volumes that do not damage your hearing or equipment.

The App does not upload your music or recordings to us. When you export or share a recording through the Android share sheet, you decide where it goes, and you are responsible for that sharing.

4. Subscriptions and In-App Purchases

Subscription required. A Vinyx Pro subscription is required to use the App. The subscription screen appears after the welcome screens.

Plans and prices. Vinyx Pro is offered as weekly, monthly and yearly auto-renewing subscriptions. There is no free trial. Prices are shown in the App and on Google Play in your local currency before you subscribe, and may include applicable taxes.

Payment. Subscriptions are sold only through Google Play Billing. Payment is charged to your Google Play account at confirmation of purchase. We never see or store your payment details. The App only receives purchase status from Google Play to unlock Pro features.

Auto-renewal. Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period (week, month or year, depending on your plan) at the then-current price, unless you cancel before the renewal date.

Cancellation. You can cancel at any time in the Google Play app under Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions > Vinyx. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and you keep access until then. Uninstalling the App does not cancel your subscription.

Refunds. All purchases are handled by Google. Refund requests are governed by Google Play's refund policy and are processed by Google, not by us. You can request a refund through Google Play. We generally cannot issue refunds directly, as we do not process payments.

Price changes. If we change subscription prices, Google Play will notify you as required, and the new price will apply to renewals after the notice period. You may cancel before the change takes effect.

Restoring access. If you reinstall the App or use a new device with the same Google account, you can restore an active subscription through the App or Google Play.

5. Intellectual Property

The App, including its software, design, user interface, the sound engine, the built-in drum kits and generated sounds, name, logo and related materials, is owned by Hugo Software or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. No rights are granted to you except the limited license in Section 1.

You retain all rights in the music you load and in the original content you create. We do not claim ownership of your mixes or recordings. Nothing in these Terms gives you any rights in third-party music you mix; those rights remain with their owners.

If you believe the App infringes your intellectual property rights, contact us at [email protected].

6. Privacy

The App does not collect personal data, has no accounts, analytics or advertising, and does not upload your files to any server. Music files, library data, drum patterns, settings and recordings stay on your device. Internet access is used only for Google Play Billing, which is subject to Google's own privacy policy. Please see the Vinyx Privacy Policy on our website (https://vinyx.hugosoftware.net) for details.

7. Permissions

To work as described, the App asks for certain Android permissions, including access to audio files on your device, notifications, and the ability to run playback and recording with the screen off. You can manage permissions in your device settings, but some features may not work if you deny them.

8. Disclaimers

The App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted or error-free operation, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

We do not warrant that the App will meet your requirements, be compatible with every device or audio file format, or be free of bugs, interruptions or audio glitches. The App is not intended for professional live-performance reliability, and you use it at your own risk. We recommend keeping copies of important recordings, since app data may be lost if you uninstall the App or clear its storage.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so some of the above may not apply to you.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Hugo Software and its owners, employees and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, recordings, profits, revenue or goodwill, arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, the App.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim relating to the App will not exceed the amount you paid for the App's subscription in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

We are not responsible for claims arising from your use of music or recordings without proper rights. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded by law, including for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or your statutory consumer rights.

10. Eligibility

The App is intended for users aged 18 and over and is not directed to children under 13. By using the App, you confirm that you are at least 18, or that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms and to make purchases under your local law.

11. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time by uninstalling it. Uninstalling removes app data from your device but does not cancel your subscription; cancel it separately in Google Play.

We may suspend or terminate your license to use the App if you materially breach these Terms, misuse the App, attempt to circumvent billing, or use it unlawfully. We may also discontinue the App or any feature at any time. If we discontinue the App entirely, we will provide reasonable notice where practicable.

On termination, your license ends and you must stop using the App. Sections that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability and governing law) will survive termination.

12. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable in Hugo Software's place of establishment, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts of that jurisdiction have jurisdiction over disputes, except that if you are a consumer, you keep the benefit of any mandatory consumer protection laws and the right to bring claims in the courts of your country of residence where those laws provide so.

Before starting a formal dispute, we encourage you to contact us at [email protected] so we can try to resolve it informally.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time, for example to reflect changes to the App, the law or our subscription offering. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, for material changes, may also notify you in the App. Your continued use of the App after the changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the App and cancel your subscription in Google Play.

14. General

• Entire agreement: These Terms are the entire agreement between you and us about the App.
• Severability: If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
• No waiver: Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment: You may not transfer your rights under these Terms. We may assign ours in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of the App.
