Bilargo Translate — Terms of Use

Effective date: 2026-06-15

These Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern your download and use of the Bilargo Translate macOS application (the "App"), distributed exclusively through the Apple Mac App Store.

The App is published by Bilargo — Michał Lipski, a sole proprietorship (jednoosobowa działalność gospodarcza, "JDG") registered in Poland, with its registered address at Aleja Partyzantów 51A, 24-100 Puławy, Poland, NIP 7161515351, REGON 061686949 ("Bilargo", "we", "us" or "our"). "Bilargo" is a trade name; the licensor and seller of record is the natural person Michał Lipski, who is also the holder of the Apple Developer Program Individual account under which the App is distributed.

By downloading, installing or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not download, install or use the App.

1. Parties, acceptance and relationship with Apple's Standard EULA

1.1 These Terms form an agreement between you (the end user) and Bilargo. They do not create any agreement with Apple. As between you and Apple, Apple is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the App or its content.

1.2 Unless we provide a separate end user license agreement, Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement ("Apple Standard EULA"), available at https://www.apple.com/legal/macapps/stdeula/, applies to the App by default. These Terms supplement the Apple Standard EULA and the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.

1.3 In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the minimum terms that Apple requires (see Apple's "Minimum Terms of Developer's EULA", https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/minterms/), Apple's required minimum terms prevail to the extent of the conflict, and the remainder of these Terms continues to apply.

1.4 Apple as third-party beneficiary. You and we acknowledge that Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance Apple has the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.

1.5 Responsibility for the App. We, and not Apple, are solely responsible for the App and its content. We, and not Apple, are responsible for providing any maintenance and support for the App to the extent such support is required by applicable law; Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support.

1.6 Product and IP claims. We, and not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the App or your possession and use of it, including product liability claims, legal or regulatory claims, consumer-protection, privacy or similar claims, and third-party intellectual-property claims, to the extent required by applicable law and Apple's minimum terms.

1.7 Age restriction. The App is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or the minimum digital-consent age in your jurisdiction). If you are under 18 (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction), you may use the App only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms.

2. License grant and restrictions

2.1 Subject to these Terms and the Apple Standard EULA, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions (including Family Sharing where applicable). The App is licensed, not sold, to you.

2.2 You may not, except to the extent applicable mandatory law expressly permits otherwise:

2.3 The App requires a Mac with Apple Silicon and macOS 15.0 or later, and sufficient memory and free storage for the selected translation model. We do not warrant operation on hardware or system versions that do not meet these requirements.

3. Trial, "Locked" state and Lifetime purchase

3.1 No subscription. The App is not sold on a subscription basis. There are no recurring charges.

3.2 Free 7-day trial. The App offers a free 7-day trial. Activating the trial unlocks the full feature set for seven (7) calendar days. The trial is intended to be used once per Apple Account. The App may store limited local trial state, as described in the Privacy Policy, so that the trial period is not trivially reset.

3.3 "Locked" state. When the trial period ends, the App enters a "Locked" state in which productive translation features are unavailable until you purchase or restore Lifetime access.

3.4 Lifetime unlock. Full, ongoing access is obtained through a one-time "Lifetime" purchase. After purchase, Lifetime access is tied to the Apple Account used for the transaction and is available via Family Sharing where Apple enables or permits it for the product.

3.5 Restore Purchases. The App provides a "Restore Purchases" function so that you can re-activate your Lifetime entitlement (and, where applicable, your existing trial window) on devices signed in to the same Apple Account.

3.6 What Lifetime does not guarantee. "Lifetime" refers to a one-time payment model and does not guarantee perpetual compatibility with every future macOS release, the perpetual availability of any particular third-party model, or that every present or future feature will remain available indefinitely, subject to your mandatory rights under applicable consumer law. If we discontinue a material feature that was available at the time of your Lifetime purchase, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide equivalent functionality or, where required by mandatory consumer law, an appropriate remedy.

4. Payments, refunds and the right of withdrawal

4.1 Apple is the merchant. All payments, including the trial product where applicable and the Lifetime purchase, are processed by Apple through the App Store / StoreKit. We do not collect or process your payment details and do not receive your full payment card information.

4.2 Refunds. Refund requests are handled by Apple in accordance with Apple's policies and your region's rules. We do not control Apple's billing system or refund decisions. To request a refund, use Apple's process (for example, https://reportaproblem.apple.com). Where mandatory consumer law grants you a statutory refund or remedy, those rights are unaffected.

4.3 EU/EEA consumers — statutory rights and right of withdrawal. If you are a consumer resident in the EU/EEA (including Poland), you have statutory rights, which may include a 14-day right of withdrawal for contracts concluded at a distance under the EU Consumer Rights Directive and the Polish Act on Consumer Rights (ustawa o prawach konsumenta). For digital content not supplied on a tangible medium, the right of withdrawal may be lost once supply has begun with your prior express consent and your acknowledgement that you thereby lose the right of withdrawal, in line with Article 16(m) of Directive 2011/83/EU and Article 38(13) of the Polish Act on Consumer Rights.

4.4 Withdrawal process. Because the App is distributed through the App Store, the contract for the purchase and any withdrawal are administered by Apple. If you believe you have a statutory withdrawal right or refund right, use Apple's process and contact us at support@bilargo.com if you need assistance. A model withdrawal form is available in Annex I(B) to Directive 2011/83/EU and in the annex to the Polish Act on Consumer Rights; you may also contact us for a copy.

5. AI models and third-party content

5.1 The App can translate using Apple's on-device Translation framework ("Apple Translate"), used by default, and an optional AI model running locally via Apple's MLX framework (currently TranslateGemma).

5.2 Optional AI models are not bundled with the App. If you choose to use the AI engine, the App downloads model weights from a third-party host such as Hugging Face at your initiative. That download requires internet access and is subject to the host's terms; after the download, translation runs locally on your device.

5.3 Downloaded models are owned and licensed by their respective creators and are governed by their own licenses, not by us.

5.4 TranslateGemma models are provided under and subject to the Gemma Terms of Use. Users who download or use TranslateGemma must comply with the Gemma Terms of Use and the Gemma Prohibited Use Policy, including all use restrictions specified therein:

5.5 We may add, change, or remove support for any model if legal, licensing, technical or security conditions require it.

5.6 For additional details about models used in the App, see the AI & Model Notice at https://translate.bilargo.com/ai-models.

6. Translation quality and intended use

6.1 Translations are produced by machine-translation engines and AI models and may be inaccurate, incomplete, or inappropriate for your context. Output is provided "as is."

6.2 The App is a productivity aid and does not replace professional human translation. You must not rely on the App's output for critical purposes, including legal, medical, financial, safety-related, regulatory, or other matters where an error could cause harm. You are responsible for independently verifying any output before relying on it.

6.3 The App and its output do not constitute legal, medical, financial, or other professional advice, and are not a certified or sworn translation.

7. Disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability

7.1 To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the App is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement.

7.2 To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Bilargo / Michał Lipski shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms.

7.3 To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our total aggregate liability for all direct damages arising out of or related to the App or these Terms shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you actually paid for the App in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) EUR 50 (fifty euros). This cap does not apply where liability cannot be limited under mandatory law.

7.4 Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability where it cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including under mandatory consumer protection law of your country of residence.

8. Apple-specific provisions

8.1 We are solely responsible for any maintenance and support for the App as required by law; Apple has no such obligation.

8.2 In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price (if any) for the App to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App.

8.3 You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as "terrorist supporting," and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties, to the extent such representations are required by Apple.

8.4 You must comply with applicable third-party terms when using the App.

9. Intellectual property

9.1 The App, its design, code, trade names, service marks, trademarks (including "Bilargo Translate" and "Bilargo" where applicable), and all related intellectual property are owned by Bilargo / Michał Lipski or its licensors and are protected by law. Except for the license in Section 2, no rights are granted to you.

9.2 You retain all rights in the text and other content you input into or process with the App. We do not claim ownership of your content. You are responsible for your content and represent that you have the rights necessary to process it through the App.

10. Privacy

Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, available at https://translate.bilargo.com/privacy. For privacy questions, contact privacy@bilargo.com.

11. Changes, updates and termination

11.1 We may update the App, the set of supported models, and these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes to these Terms, we will update the effective date, publish the revised Terms at https://translate.bilargo.com/terms, and where required by law provide appropriate prior notice before the changes take effect.

11.2 These Terms apply until terminated. Your license terminates automatically if you breach these Terms. You may terminate by ceasing to use and deleting the App. Termination does not affect your statutory consumer rights or any Lifetime entitlement you have lawfully acquired, except as permitted by law.

12. Governing law, jurisdiction, consumer complaints and contact

12.1 These Terms are governed by the laws of Poland, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules. This choice of law does not deprive you, if you are a consumer, of the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of habitual residence.

12.2 Subject to mandatory consumer-protection rules that may allow a consumer to sue or be sued only in the courts of their country of residence, disputes shall be subject to the courts having jurisdiction for the Seller's place of residence in Poland.

12.3 If you have a complaint, please contact us first at support@bilargo.com. The European Commission previously provided an online dispute resolution platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr; as of March 2025, the ODR platform has been discontinued. You may also refer to your national consumer protection authority where applicable.
