        <h1>Terms of Service</h1>
        <p>Last updated 1 October 2026</p>
    </header>

    <div class="legal-intro">
        These Terms of Service govern your use of the SonarDesk website, licence portal,
        subscription service and macOS application. By purchasing, activating or using SonarDesk,
        you agree to these terms. Your statutory rights are not affected.
    </div>

    <section>
        <h2>1. SonarDesk licences</h2>
        <p>SonarDesk is licensed, not sold. A Personal subscription permits the number of active Mac
        installations stated for that plan at the time of purchase. A Professional subscription permits
        the number stated for the Professional plan. Licences are for the subscriber's use and must not
        be shared, resold, sublicensed or used to circumvent activation limits.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>2. Free trials</h2>
        <p>Where a free trial is offered, its duration and the price that will apply afterwards are shown
        before checkout. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, the subscription will automatically
        convert to the selected paid plan and Paddle will charge the payment method provided at checkout.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>3. Subscriptions, billing and renewal</h2>
        <p>SonarDesk subscriptions renew automatically at the billing interval selected at checkout until
        cancelled. The renewal price, billing period, applicable taxes and other checkout information are
        presented before you complete the transaction. Payment processing, tax collection and subscription
        billing are handled by Paddle, our Merchant of Record.</p>
        <p>Changes between Personal and Professional plans may result in a prorated charge or credit as
        calculated by Paddle and displayed as part of the subscription change.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>4. Cancellation</h2>
        <p>You may cancel a subscription through the SonarDesk licence portal or the subscription-management
        facilities made available through Paddle. Cancellation prevents future renewals. Unless the
        cancellation flow expressly states otherwise, access normally continues until the end of the
        already-paid billing period.</p>
        <p>Cancellation and refund requests are separate. Cancelling a subscription does not automatically
        refund charges already paid. See our <a href="{{ route('refund') }}">Refund Policy</a>.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>5. Activation and licence checks</h2>
        <p>SonarDesk uses a licence service to activate permitted Macs and periodically confirm that an
        activation remains valid. A reasonable offline grace period may be provided. Continued use after a
        licence or subscription has expired or been revoked is not authorised.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>6. Your SonarQube connections</h2>
        <p>You are responsible for the SonarQube servers, credentials, tokens and projects you connect to
        SonarDesk. SonarDesk accesses information made available by the permissions of the credentials you
        provide. It does not grant additional permissions on your SonarQube server.</p>
        <p>You are responsible for ensuring that you are authorised to access and process the projects and
        information you connect to SonarDesk.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>7. Acceptable use</h2>
        <p>You must not attempt to defeat or circumvent licensing controls, interfere with the SonarDesk
        service, gain unauthorised access to accounts or systems, distribute malware through the service,
        reverse engineer the service except where applicable law expressly permits it, or use SonarDesk in
        violation of applicable law or third-party rights.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>8. Software updates and service availability</h2>
        <p>We may update SonarDesk, the website and licensing service to improve security, compatibility,
        reliability or functionality. We may also discontinue obsolete versions where reasonably necessary.
        We aim to provide a reliable service but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>9. Third-party services</h2>
        <p>SonarDesk works with third-party services including SonarQube and Paddle. Those services are
        operated independently and may have their own terms and policies. We are not responsible for changes,
        outages or restrictions imposed by third-party services outside our reasonable control.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>10. Consumer rights</h2>
        <p>Nothing in these terms excludes or restricts rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted.
        If you are a consumer, this includes applicable rights relating to digital content and services under
        UK consumer law. Where mandatory law gives you stronger protection than these terms, the mandatory
        protection applies.</p>
        <p>Information about refunds, statutory remedies and withdrawal rights is set out in our
        <a href="{{ route('refund') }}">Refund Policy</a>.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>11. Liability</h2>
        <p>Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful, including
        liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.</p>
        <p>Subject to those protections, we are not responsible for indirect or consequential losses, loss
        caused by unauthorised or incorrect configuration, unavailable third-party systems, or events outside
        our reasonable control. If you use SonarDesk for business purposes, you are responsible for maintaining
        appropriate backups and operational safeguards.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>12. Suspension and termination</h2>
        <p>We may suspend or terminate access where reasonably necessary to address fraud, security threats,
        material breach of these terms, chargebacks, or an invalid or expired subscription. Where appropriate,
        we will give reasonable notice and an opportunity to resolve the issue.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>13. Changes to these terms</h2>
        <p>We may update these terms when the service, law or our commercial arrangements change. The current
        version will be published on this page with its revision date. Material changes affecting an existing
        subscription will be communicated where required by law.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>14. Privacy</h2>
        <p>Our processing of personal data is described in the
        <a href="{{ route('privacy') }}">Privacy Policy</a> and
        <a href="{{ route('cookies') }}">Cookie Policy</a>.</p>
    </section>

    <section>
        <h2>15. Governing law</h2>
        <p>These terms are governed by the laws applicable in {{ $legal['country'] }}, subject to any mandatory
        consumer protections and rights you have under the law of the country in which you live.</p>
    </section>
