Xglide End User License Agreement
Agreement version: 2026-08-14
Effective date: August 14, 2026
Licensor: Fernando Balladares Jr., an individual located in Houston, Texas, USA ("Licensor")
Document status: Complete pre-release draft prepared for review by qualified legal counsel before public sale.
This End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you and Licensor governing your installation and use of the Xglide desktop software, including its documentation and updates (collectively, the "Software"). Read it before accepting it.
1. Acceptance
You accept this Agreement by selecting the checkbox stating that you have read and agree to it and then choosing Accept and continue in the Software. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software. Xglide stores the Agreement version and acceptance time locally on your computer as evidence of acceptance.
If you obtained the Software for another person or organization, you represent that you have authority to accept this Agreement for that person or organization. If you do not have that authority, you may use the Software only under a license purchased for you personally.
The terms displayed at the official point of sale, the Xglide Sales Terms, and the Xglide Privacy Notice are incorporated into this Agreement. If purchase terms conflict with this Agreement, the purchase terms control only as to price, taxes, payment, license quantity, and refunds.
2. License grant and device limit
Subject to payment of applicable fees and continued compliance with this Agreement, Licensor grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to:
1. install and use the object-code version of the Software on up to three computers that you own or control; 2. use the Software for your personal activities and your own individual professional work; and 3. make one archival backup copy solely to restore an authorized installation.
The standard license is for one named individual. It does not permit shared, team, classroom, managed-service, or organization-wide use. A company may buy a standard license for one named user, but each additional user requires a separate license. The current Software controls one paired computer at a time.
The license to the version purchased is perpetual unless terminated under this Agreement. The Software is licensed, not sold; purchasing a copy does not transfer ownership of the Software or its source code.
3. Restrictions
Except where applicable law does not permit a restriction, you may not:
1. share, publish, upload, distribute, sell, resell, rent, lease, sublicense, lend, or otherwise make the Software available to another person; 2. share purchase credentials or circumvent a license, device, pairing, security, or access control; 3. copy the Software except for the installations and backup expressly allowed above; 4. modify, translate, adapt, or create derivative works from the Software, or distribute any modified version; 5. reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to discover source code, except to the limited extent expressly permitted by applicable law; 6. remove or alter copyright, trademark, attribution, license, or proprietary notices; 7. use the Xglide name, logo, or branding in a way that suggests affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement without written permission; or 8. use the Software to gain unauthorized access to another computer, intercept another person's data, distribute malware, evade security controls, or violate any law or legal right.
4. Ownership and third-party components
Licensor retains all right, title, and interest in Xglide's original software, documentation, interface, artwork, branding, updates, and derivative works, including all associated intellectual-property rights. No rights are granted by implication.
The Software includes third-party components governed by separate licenses. Those licenses apply to the relevant components and are supplied in `THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.md`. If a third-party license conflicts with this Agreement for its component, that third-party license controls for that component.
5. How Xglide handles input and clipboard data
Xglide is designed to transmit mouse, keyboard, scroll, and optional plain-text clipboard data directly between computers you pair on a local network. By enabling these features, you authorize the Software to access and transmit that data to the paired computer.
You are responsible for pairing only computers you own, control, or are authorized to use; protecting those computers and the network; and disabling clipboard sharing before copying sensitive text you do not want transmitted. The current Software does not transfer files, images, passwords as a distinct data type, or other non-text clipboard formats. A password copied as plain text is still plain-text clipboard data and can be transmitted when clipboard sharing is enabled.
The Xglide Privacy Notice describes current data practices.
6. Updates, compatibility, and support
Your purchase includes the version delivered and maintenance updates Licensor chooses to provide for that major version. Licensor may charge separately for a future major version. Unless the purchase terms expressly say otherwise, Licensor is not required to provide any particular update, feature, operating system compatibility, support period, or service level.
The current supported systems and known limitations are identified in the documentation supplied with the Software. Operating-system vendors may change security, accessibility, networking, clipboard, or input-injection behavior in ways that affect the Software.
Support is provided under the Sales Terms. You are responsible for backing up your own data and configuration before installing an update or following a support instruction.
7. Pre-release software
Software identified as alpha, beta, preview, test, or pre-release may be incomplete, contain defects, change materially, or stop working. It is provided for evaluation and testing and must not be relied upon for safety-critical, security-critical, emergency, medical, or uninterrupted operations.
8. Refunds
Refund eligibility and procedure are governed by the Sales Terms and mandatory consumer law. Termination of this Agreement by itself does not create an additional refund right.
9. No warranty
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SOFTWARE AND SUPPORT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, SECURITY, OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION.
THE SOFTWARE DEPENDS ON THIRD-PARTY OPERATING SYSTEMS, NETWORKS, HARDWARE, AND SECURITY SETTINGS. LICENSOR DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL WORK WITH EVERY DEVICE, APPLICATION, PRIVILEGE LEVEL, NETWORK, OR FUTURE OPERATING-SYSTEM VERSION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS, SO SOME OF THESE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
10. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LICENSOR WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, GOODWILL, OR USE, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE, SUPPORT, OR THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF ADVISED THAT SUCH DAMAGES WERE POSSIBLE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LICENSOR'S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE, SUPPORT, OR THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE DURING THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR (B) US $25.
Nothing in this Agreement excludes liability for fraud or willful misconduct, or limits a warranty, remedy, or consumer right that applicable law does not allow to be limited or excluded.
11. Termination
You may terminate this Agreement at any time by stopping use and deleting all copies of the Software in your possession or control. This Agreement terminates automatically if you materially breach it and fail to cure a curable breach within ten days after receiving notice.
When this Agreement terminates, you must stop using and delete all copies of the Software, except where applicable law requires otherwise. Sections that by their nature should survive—including restrictions, ownership, disclaimers, limitations of liability, governing law, and dispute terms—will survive.
12. Export and legal compliance
You must comply with applicable export-control, sanctions, privacy, computer misuse, and other laws. You represent that you are not prohibited from receiving the Software under applicable United States export or sanctions law.
13. Governing law and disputes
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to any mandatory consumer-law forum, the state and federal courts located in Harris County, Texas have exclusive jurisdiction, and you and Licensor consent to personal jurisdiction there.
Before filing a claim other than one eligible for small-claims court or seeking urgent injunctive relief, the claimant must give written notice describing the dispute and requested resolution and allow thirty days for informal resolution. Nothing in this section prevents either party from bringing an eligible individual claim in small-claims court.
Mandatory consumer protections in your place of residence continue to apply where they cannot lawfully be waived.
14. General terms
You may not assign or transfer this Agreement or your license without Licensor's written consent. Licensor may assign this Agreement and the Software to a successor or business entity that acquires the relevant rights and assumes Licensor's obligations.
If a provision is unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remaining provisions will remain effective. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. Section headings are for convenience only.
This Agreement, the Sales Terms, the Privacy Notice, applicable purchase terms, and third-party notices are the complete agreement about the Software and replace prior statements on that subject. A waiver or amendment by you and Licensor must be in writing. Licensor may present a revised agreement for future versions; a material revision will require new affirmative acceptance before that version starts.
15. Contact and notices
Xglide is sold by Fernando Balladares Jr., Houston, Texas, USA. Customer support, refund requests, privacy requests, and legal notices may be submitted through the official Xglide support contact identified on the purchase page or purchase receipt. A legal notice is effective when receipt is acknowledged.
Do not send passwords, private keys, clipboard contents, or other confidential information with a support request unless specifically requested through a secure support method.
