Terms of service
Last updated November 8, 2026
In short: you pay once and get a license for 2 Macs that doesn't expire, with updates included. Paddle runs the checkout. Your data stays on your Mac. The AI features run on your own AI tools, and you check what they write before you publish it.
1. Who we are
HappyKeywords is made and sold by (“we”, “us”):
NovaDev Code StudioBased in the United States[email protected]When you buy or use HappyKeywords, your agreement is with us.
2. Agreeing to these terms
By buying, downloading or using HappyKeywords you agree to these terms. If you keep using it after we change them, you agree to the new version. We post every change on this page with a new date, and a change never takes away a license you already bought.
3. Buying: Paddle is our reseller
Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle handles payment, sales tax, receipts and refunds, and its buyer terms apply to your purchase.
Prices are in US dollars. Sales tax or VAT is added at checkout where it applies. The price you pay is the price shown at checkout; later price changes never cost you more.
4. Your license
- One payment. There is no subscription and nothing renews.
- 2 Macs. You can use HappyKeywords on up to 2 Macs that you own or use, for your own apps or your clients'.
- It doesn't expire, and it includes every update to HappyKeywords for Mac, including 1.0 (December 14, 2026) and v1.1 (January 2027).
- Activation. The app checks your license with our server when you activate it and at least once every 30 days. It keeps working offline in between.
- Keep your key to yourself. Don't share, sell or publish your license key.
5. Early Access
Early Access is the paid version of HappyKeywords before 1.0. It works, but it isn't finished: some features arrive in later updates (Google Play, the screenshot designer and screenshot localization are planned for v1.1 in January 2027), features may change before 1.0, and you may find bugs. Please tell us when you do. Early Access buyers can get a full refund any time before 1.0 comes out (see the refund policy).
6. What you must not do
- Use HappyKeywords for anything unlawful.
- Use it for fraud or spam, or to mislead App Store users.
- Infringe anyone's intellectual property, for example by putting another company's trademark in your keywords without the right to.
- Break or get around the license check, or copy, resell or redistribute the app.
- Interfere with the security of HappyKeywords, our servers, or Apple's services, or overload them on purpose.
7. App Store Connect and your listings
If you connect an App Store Connect key, it stays in your Mac's Keychain and is used only to talk to Apple. HappyKeywords uploads text to a draft version of your app and never submits it for review. You decide what to upload, and you are responsible for following Apple's rules for your listing.
8. AI features
- Your own AI. AI features run on the AI tool you pick (for example Claude Code, Codex, Gemini or a local model), under your own account with that provider and its terms. Any cost or usage limit of that account is yours. We don't see your prompts or the results.
- Check before you publish. AI can be wrong. Names, subtitles, keywords and descriptions it writes are suggestions: read them before you upload. You are responsible for the prompts you send and the text you publish.
- The text is yours. We claim no rights in the text you write or generate with HappyKeywords.
- Rights complaints. If you believe something made or shared with HappyKeywords infringes your rights, email [email protected] with the details and we will look into it and act where needed.
9. Estimates, not promises
Demand, difficulty and other scores are estimates from live App Store results, not Apple's search counts. Ranks are what the App Store showed when we checked. We can't promise any rank, download or sales result.
10. Ownership
We own HappyKeywords: the app, its code, its name and its design. Your license lets you use it; it doesn't transfer ownership. Apple, App Store and App Store Connect are trademarks of Apple Inc. HappyKeywords isn't made by or affiliated with Apple.
11. No guarantee of uninterrupted service
We work hard to keep HappyKeywords reliable, but we don't promise it will always be available or free of errors. It depends on services we don't control, such as the App Store, App Store Connect and your AI provider. To the extent the law allows, HappyKeywords is provided “as is”.
12. Liability
To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential losses (such as lost sales or lost data), and our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for HappyKeywords. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have by law as a consumer.
13. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or cancel a license for a serious breach of these terms, non-payment (including a chargeback), fraud or a security risk, or repeated breaches. A refunded order's license stops working. You can stop using HappyKeywords at any time.
