Version 2026-06-24 · In force from 24 June 2026
These Terms govern your use of the Housekeeping software and the license that unlocks its paid tools. Your purchase is made from and handled by Paddle.com, our authorised reseller and merchant of record — payment, invoicing, VAT, refunds and your right of withdrawal are covered by Paddle’s buyer terms shown at checkout. Nothing here removes a consumer right that the law makes mandatory.
poietic.studio are operated by
an independent developer based in France, trading as “poietic.studio”
(the “Provider”, “we”, “us”).The person using the Software or buying a license is the “User”, “you”.
“Software” means the Housekeeping software: two MCP servers (for Google Drive and for Gmail) and any related downloads, documentation and updates. “Free Features” are the parts usable without a license: searching, classifying, deduplication analysis, OCR, scanning and ranking of mail senders, and the read-only dry-run plans. “Paid Features” are the tools that apply changes to your account, such as moving, renaming, filing and trashing files, and unsubscribing from, trashing and filtering mail. “License” means the signed license key that unlocks the Paid Features. “Dry-run plan” means the preview of proposed changes the Software produces for your review before any change is applied. “Google Account” means the account whose credentials you supply to the Software.
By installing or using the Software, or by accepting these Terms at purchase, you agree to them. A License is issued only after you have accepted these Terms by ticking the dedicated, unticked-by-default box (“I have read and accept the Terms of Use”), which records the version, date and time of your acceptance. The purchase itself is also subject to Paddle’s buyer terms, presented to you at checkout.
The Software runs on your own device and acts on your own Google Account using credentials you provide directly to it. We do not host, receive, store, copy or access your files or your mail. The Software communicates with Google’s services on your behalf.
The Software acts only on the instructions you give it through your AI assistant or MCP client. Every operation that changes your data is first presented to you as a dry-run plan; no change is applied until you approve it. The Software does not act autonomously and does not apply changes you have not approved.
The Free Features are made available without charge and without a License. Subject to your acceptance of these Terms and to a completed purchase through Paddle, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable License to use the Paid Features for your own private purposes, for the lifetime of the product, on the devices you own or control. The License is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. The Software is licensed, not sold; all intellectual property rights in it remain with the Provider or its licensors. The License is tied to the email address used at purchase.
Except where applicable law (including Article L.122-6-1 of the French Intellectual Property Code on interoperability) prevents such a restriction, you agree not to: (a) resell, rent, lend, sublicense or distribute the Software or License; (b) copy the Software except as needed for normal use and backup; (c) reverse-engineer, decompile or disassemble it; (d) remove or alter any notice, signature or license-check mechanism; or (e) use the Software in breach of any law or of the terms of the third-party services it relies on.
Purchases are sold by Paddle as merchant of record, not by us directly. Paddle is the seller for the transaction and handles payment, taxes (including VAT), invoicing, refunds and your statutory right of withdrawal, under the buyer terms it presents at checkout. Because the License is digital content supplied immediately, the right of withdrawal may be lost once supply begins, where you consent at checkout — this is handled within Paddle’s checkout. For any question about a payment, refund or invoice, contact Paddle (and you may also contact us and we will help).
Nothing in these Terms removes or limits the mandatory rights you have as a consumer, including the legal guarantee of conformity (Articles L.217-3 ff. of the French Consumer Code) and the guarantee against hidden defects (Articles 1641 ff. of the French Civil Code). Where Paddle is the seller, these statutory guarantees are exercised against the seller; we will assist in good faith with any conformity issue in the Software itself.
Without prejudice to the mandatory rights in section 7, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Software is provided “as is” and “as available”: we do not warrant that it will be free of interruptions or errors, that an automated classification or dry-run plan will be correct, or that it is fit for any purpose you have not communicated to us and we have not accepted. Software can misjudge a file, and an AI assistant can propose the wrong action — this is why every change is presented to you for approval first.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability where the law does not allow it, including for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or gross negligence (dol ou faute lourde), or under your mandatory consumer rights. Subject to that, and to the fullest extent permitted by law:
The Software relies on services from Google, on your AI assistant or MCP client, and — for purchases — on Paddle. Each is governed by its own terms between you and that provider. We are not a party to those relationships, do not control those services, and are not responsible for them.
The Software processes your files and mail locally, on your device; that content is never transmitted to us. In connection with a purchase, Paddle processes your payment and contact data as the seller; we receive from Paddle only the limited data needed to issue and support your License (such as your purchase email and the record of your acceptance of these Terms). We use it to perform and support the License and to meet our legal obligations. You have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection, exercisable at the contact above, and the right to lodge a complaint with the CNIL. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.
We may update, modify or discontinue the Software or any feature, and will provide the updates needed to keep it in conformity for the period required by law. A lifetime License refers to the lifetime of the product and does not oblige us to maintain it indefinitely; if we permanently discontinue the Software, an already-issued License continues to function offline to the extent technically possible.
The License is granted for the lifetime of the product. We may suspend or terminate it if you materially breach these Terms — in particular the restrictions in section 5 — and do not remedy the breach within a reasonable time after notice. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 4 last sentences, 5, 7, 9, 12 and 16) survive termination.
We may change these Terms for the future. The version in force when you obtain your License is the one that applies to it; it is identified by the version date at the top of this page and recorded with your acceptance. The current version is always published here.
These Terms are governed by French law. As a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence within the European Union, and you may bring proceedings before the courts of your place of domicile, in addition to any other competent court.
