Terms of Service

Last updated:

1. Introduction and agreement to terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and NyaIcon (“NyaIcon,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). They govern your access to and use of the NyaIcon website, Mac app, APIs, icon themes, and related online services (together, the “Services”).

You accept these Terms when you download or install the Mac app, access any part of the Services, or continue using the Services after an updated version of these Terms takes effect.

Related policies

Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information. Our Licenses page explains the rights granted for NyaIcon software, themes, and third-party materials. Those policies form part of these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Services.

2. Description of the Services

NyaIcon helps you customize icons for supported Mac apps and folders.

Core features

  • Browse and search coordinated icon themes.
  • Import supported image and ICNS files.
  • Apply icons to supported apps and folders.
  • Undo recent changes and restore original icons.
  • Download available themes from the NyaIcon catalog.

Service limitations

  • Compatibility: the current Mac app requires the supported macOS version stated on the website or download page. App and macOS updates can affect icon behavior.
  • Internet access: downloading the app, browsing catalog updates, and contacting online services require an internet connection.
  • Availability: we do not guarantee that every app, folder, icon, theme, or online feature will always be available or compatible.
  • Backups: you are responsible for keeping copies of artwork and files that matter to you.

Third-party services

The Services may rely on Google Fonts and infrastructure providers for hosting, storage, and delivery. Their services are governed by their own terms and policies.

Changes to the Services

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue part of the Services. Features, compatibility, and availability may change as the product develops.

3. Free access

NyaIcon is currently free and does not require an account, subscription, purchase, license key, or device activation.

We may limit or suspend access when reasonably necessary to protect the Services, other users, or third-party systems from fraud, abuse, excessive automated traffic, or a security issue.

4. Acceptable use

You may use the Services only for lawful and authorized purposes.

Prohibited activities

  • Violate applicable law or another person’s rights.
  • Upload, import, distribute, or use material you do not have permission to use.
  • Redistribute, resell, sublicense, or publicly publish NyaIcon themes or protected files without written permission.
  • Engage in fraudulent, false, misleading, or deceptive activity.
  • Transmit malware or other harmful code.
  • Interfere with, overload, scrape, probe, or disrupt the Services.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to accounts, systems, APIs, or data.
  • Reverse engineer or circumvent technical protections except where applicable law expressly permits it.
  • Use the Services or protected NyaIcon materials to build a competing theme catalog or product.

Your responsibility for artwork and icon changes

You are responsible for the images and icon files you import and for how you use changed icons. NyaIcon does not verify that your artwork is licensed and does not grant you rights in third-party characters, logos, app icons, photographs, or other content.

5. Intellectual property rights

NyaIcon materials

The Services, including NyaIcon software, website design, code, documentation, original themes, and related technology, are owned by NyaIcon or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. Permission to use the beta is limited by these Terms and the Licenses page; it does not transfer ownership.

Your content

You retain the rights you already hold in artwork and files you import or upload. When you choose to upload content to an online feature, you grant NyaIcon a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, copy, process, and transmit that content only as needed to provide, secure, and support the feature you requested.

Feedback

If you send ideas or feedback about NyaIcon, you permit us to use them without restriction, payment, or attribution.

Third-party materials

Third-party names, trademarks, logos, app icons, and other materials remain the property of their respective owners. References to them do not imply sponsorship or endorsement. Additional permissions or terms may apply.

6. Pricing

NyaIcon is currently free. We will not charge you unless you expressly agree to the price and terms shown before a purchase.

7. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR COMPATIBLE WITH EVERY APP OR MACOS RELEASE.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded.

8. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NYAICON WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING FROM THE SERVICES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NYAICON’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID NYAICON DURING THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR (B) US $100.

These limits do not apply where applicable law prohibits them.

9. Children

The Services are not directed to children under 13, or under 16 in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom. If you do not meet the minimum age required in your location to agree to these Terms, you may use the Services only with permission from a parent or legal guardian.

10. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless NyaIcon and its operators, employees, contractors, and affiliates from claims, damages, losses, and expenses arising from your unlawful use of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of another person’s rights.

11. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Unless applicable consumer law requires otherwise, disputes will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in California, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

12. Termination

By NyaIcon

We may suspend or terminate access to online Services for a material violation of these Terms, fraud, abuse, security risk, legal requirement, or discontinued service.

By you

You may stop using the Services and delete the app at any time. You may contact support about information you previously provided.

Effect of termination

When access ends, your right to use the affected Services ends. Provisions that by their nature should survive—including ownership, disclaimers, liability limits, and dispute terms—will continue to apply.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We will post the revised Terms and change the “Last updated” date. If a change materially affects your rights, we will provide additional notice when reasonably practical. Continued use after the revised Terms take effect constitutes acceptance.

14. Third-party trademark notice

Apple, macOS, and the names and marks of third-party apps are trademarks of their respective owners. NyaIcon is not affiliated with or endorsed by Apple or those app publishers unless expressly stated. No third-party trademark or character license is granted through the Services.
