In short: you buy a licence to use CineMeter on your Mac under Apple’s standard licence terms. CineMeter is a measurement and quality-control aid; the final responsibility for a delivery stays with you and the people who accept it.
1. Who provides the app
CineMeter (“the app”) is provided by Raunoa OÜ (registry code 12304840), Tartu mnt 52-9, Iisaku alevik, Alutaguse vald, 41101 Ida-Viru maakond, Estonia, email rauno@raunoa.com (“we”, “us”).
2. Licence
The app is licensed, not sold, to you. When you obtain it from the App Store, your use is governed by Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the “Standard EULA”), together with these terms. If these terms and the Standard EULA conflict, the Standard EULA prevails. You may use the app on any Mac you own or control, as permitted by the App Store’s usage rules.
3. Purchases and refunds
The app is a one-time purchase with no subscription. Payment, billing and refunds are handled by Apple. To ask for a refund, use reportaproblem.apple.com. Your statutory rights as a consumer, including the EU right of withdrawal where it applies, are not affected by these terms.
4. Your files
Your mixes, videos and reports remain yours. The app works entirely on your Mac and we have no access to them (see the Privacy Policy). You are responsible for having the right to use the files you analyse, including films you use as a reference.
5. Measurements
The app measures to published standards (ITU-R BS.1770-4, EBU R 128, EBU Tech 3342, ISO 21727) and is tested against their reference cases, but it is an aid, not a certification. Delivery targets are summaries of public specifications and may differ from the current requirements of a particular distributor, broadcaster or cinema; check the specification you are delivering to. The centre-channel dialogue figure is a proxy, not dialogue-gated loudness. Cinema guidance is advisory. Decisions about a mix and its acceptance remain yours.
6. Acceptable use
Do not reverse engineer, resell or redistribute the app except where the law expressly allows it, and do not use it in breach of any law.
7. Availability and updates
We aim to keep the app working on supported versions of macOS and may release updates that add, change or remove features. We cannot guarantee that every file format will open; the app reads WAV and RF64 directly and other formats as far as macOS can decode them.
8. Liability
The app is provided “as is”. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, such as a rejected delivery, a missed deadline or loss of data. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the app. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as liability for intent or gross negligence, or your mandatory rights as a consumer.
9. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Estonia. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you may bring a claim in the courts of that country. The European Commission’s online dispute resolution information is available at consumer-redress.ec.europa.eu.
10. Changes and contact
We may update these terms, for example when new features are released; the date above shows the latest version. Questions are welcome at rauno@raunoa.com.
