Alive! Music Stand — End User License Agreement

This End User License Agreement (“Agreement”) is a legal agreement between you (“you” or “User”) and Littlefish Software LLC (“we”, “us”, or “Company”) governing your use of the Alive! Music Stand application and any related desktop, web, and mobile software, updates, and services (collectively, the “Software”).

By tapping “I Agree”, installing, or using the Software, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use the Software.

Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Software for your own musical performance, practice, and worship-leading purposes.

This is a license, not a sale. We retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including all intellectual property rights.

The Software lets you import, view, organize, and perform musical content such as chord charts, lyrics, song files, and setlists (“Your Content”).

You are solely responsible for Your Content and for ensuring you have all rights, licenses, and permissions necessary to use it — including any copyright, mechanical, or performance licenses required for songs, lyrics, and arrangements you import.

The Software is designed to help you view and reconstruct content you already have the right to use; it does not grant you any rights to third-party copyrighted works. We do not host or distribute copyrighted song catalogs, and we are not responsible for how you obtain or use Your Content.

This applies equally to tablature, Guitar Pro files, and other instrument notation you import or create. By importing such files you confirm that you own them or otherwise have the right to use them, and that you will not import files obtained from sources that prohibit downloading or redistribution. The Software does not scrape, bundle, or ship any third-party tablature library, and any files you import remain on your own devices and account.

You agree not to use the Software to infringe the intellectual property rights of others.

Some features require an account and an internet connection, including cloud sync of your songs, setlists, and settings across your registered devices.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Device and sync limits may apply based on your subscription tier.

The Software is offline-first: your library remains available on your device without a connection. Cloud features are provided on a reasonable-efforts basis and may be unavailable from time to time.

Certain features are available only under a paid subscription or a specific entitlement tier. Pricing, features, and limits for each tier are described in the Software or on our website and may change over time.

Subscriptions renew and are billed according to the terms presented at purchase and the policies of the applicable app store or payment processor. Except where required by law, fees are non-refundable.

The Software may integrate with third-party services you choose to connect, such as Planning Center, and may offer optional on-device or cloud AI features.

Your use of any third-party service is governed by that provider’s own terms and privacy policy. We are not responsible for third-party services, their availability, or their handling of your data.

The Software includes open-source components. Most are licensed under permissive licenses (such as MIT, BSD, and Apache 2.0), and some are licensed under file-level weak-copyleft licenses (such as the Mozilla Public License 2.0, which covers the music-notation rendering library). Their copyright and license notices — together with where to obtain the corresponding source code — are provided within the Software under “Third-Party Licenses”. These bundled components are used in a manner we believe is compatible with commercial distribution, and we gratefully acknowledge their authors.

Some optional AI features can use additional third-party models that are NOT included with the Software and are governed by their own separate licenses — including licenses that restrict use to non-commercial or research purposes. When offered, these optional models are downloaded, if you choose, directly from their makers, never from us. Before any such model is enabled, the Software asks you to review and accept that model’s own license. You are solely responsible for using each optional model within its license terms. We do not host, distribute, warrant, or take responsibility for optional models, or for any use of them outside their terms.

In plain language: we are a small team. The auto-timing engine ships with a safe, commercially-licensed default that works out of the box with nothing to download. More capable models are strictly opt-in, come from their original makers under those makers’ own terms, and are used at your own discretion and risk. Please do not process audio you do not have the rights to use.

• Do not copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the Software, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by law.
• Do not resell, sublicense, rent, or redistribute the Software.
• Do not use the Software to store or share unlawful, infringing, or harmful content.
• Do not interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Software or its supporting infrastructure.

We may release updates, and we may add, change, or remove features at any time. We may also update this Agreement; if we make material changes, we will ask you to review and accept the updated terms before continuing to use the Software.

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Software will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that your content will always be available or preserved. You are responsible for maintaining your own backups of important content.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR PROFITS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR TWENTY-FIVE U.S. DOLLARS.

This Agreement remains in effect until terminated. We may suspend or terminate your license if you violate this Agreement. You may stop using the Software at any time.

Upon termination, your right to use the Software ends and you must stop using it. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, and limitation of liability) will survive.

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located there for any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement.
