Terms of Service

The app is free to download from vhostly.app. Its use is governed by the Vhostly End User License, which allows personal, hobby and noncommercial use free of charge. Using Vhostly for work, for clients or for any commercial purpose requires a Vhostly Pro license.

• Plans: Pro Lifetime, a one-time payment, or Pro yearly, a subscription that renews every year until cancelled. Prices are shown on the pricing page and at checkout.
• Trial: every install includes all Pro features for 14 days. After that the free features keep working and Pro features lock until a license is activated.
• Devices: one license may be active on up to three Macs used by the same person. You can remove a Mac in Settings to free its place. Teams buy one seat per Mac; see the pricing page.
• Updates: Lifetime includes every future version. Yearly includes every version released while the subscription is active.
• Activation: a license is activated online and checked by the app about once a week. It keeps working offline for weeks at a time; if a Mac stays offline longer than that, Pro pauses until it goes online again.

Orders are processed by Lemon Squeezy, which acts as our reseller and merchant of record. Lemon Squeezy handles payment, invoices and sales tax or VAT, and its buyer terms also apply to your purchase. Yearly subscriptions can be cancelled at any time from My Orders; Pro stays on until the end of the paid period.

You can get a full refund within 30 days of any purchase. See the Refund Policy. A refunded license stops working.

• share, publish or resell license keys, or use one key for more people or Macs than allowed,
• remove or work around the license checks in the app you downloaded from us,
• use the app or our servers to break the law or to attack other systems.

We may disable a license key that is shared publicly or obtained by fraud.

Vhostly changes your Mac's Apache configuration and /etc/hosts file, with your permission, and makes a backup before every change. You are responsible for your own sites, projects and backups. Features that make a site reachable from other devices or the internet, such as network mode and public URLs, are switched on by you and should be used only for content you are happy to share.

Vhostly is provided “as is”. We work hard to make it reliable, but we do not promise that it will be error-free or suit every setup. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost data or lost profits, and our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for your license in the twelve months before the claim. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have as a consumer that cannot be limited by contract.

We may update these terms; material changes will be announced in the app's News panel and on this page. If we ever stop selling Vhostly Pro, licenses that were already bought keep working on the versions you have.

How the app and this site handle data is described in the Privacy Policy.
