Last updated: 21 August 2026
This End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you ("you") and Bradin Zaba ("the Licensor") for the software product Tracer, including its executable code, documentation, and any updates provided to you ("the Software").
By installing, activating, or using the Software, you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, the Licensor grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Software.
Free features. The Software may be used without payment for the features made available without a license key, for as long as you wish, for personal or commercial purposes.
Trial. The Software includes a time-limited trial during which paid features are unlocked. When the trial ends, paid features become unavailable; the free features continue to work, and your data remains fully accessible.
Licensed use. A purchased license key unlocks the paid features for one individual. You may activate the Software on a limited number of computers that you personally use; the current limit is shown on the store page at the time of purchase. A license key is for use by one person and may not be shared between multiple people.
To move your license to a different computer, choose Deactivate in Settings on the computer you no longer use. This frees the slot immediately. If you cannot access that computer, contact the Licensor and the slot will be released for you.
If you need licenses for a team, contact the Licensor.
You may not:
a. Redistribute, sell, rent, lease, sublicense, or otherwise make the Software available to third parties; b. Share, publish, or resell your license key; c. Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits it despite this limitation; d. Circumvent, disable, or tamper with the licensing, trial, or activation mechanisms of the Software, or use a license key not issued to you; e. Remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices.
The Software records serial port sessions and stores them on your computer. The Licensor does not receive, collect, transmit, or have any access to that data. Session logs, notes, comments, vault contents, and configuration remain entirely on your machine and under your control.
The Software is not a cloud service. There is no account, no server-side storage, and no synchronisation.
Files created by the Software belong to you. This Agreement places no restriction whatsoever on your use of them, including after this license ends.
For details of the limited network requests the Software does make, see the Privacy Policy at https://gettracer.net/privacy.
The Software is licensed, not sold. The Licensor retains all right, title, and interest in the Software, including all intellectual property rights. This Agreement grants you no rights other than the license described in Section 1.
The Software includes third-party components distributed under their own licenses, including the IBM Plex typeface (SIL Open Font License 1.1). Those licenses continue to govern those components.
The Licensor may make updates available. The Software can check for updates automatically; this can be turned off in Settings. Updates are provided under this Agreement unless accompanied by different terms. The Licensor is not obligated to provide updates, support, or continued availability of any feature.
This Agreement applies for as long as you use the Software.
The Licensor may terminate this Agreement if you materially breach it, in particular the restrictions in Section 2. On termination you must stop using the Software and remove it from your computers.
A license key may be deactivated where the corresponding purchase is refunded or reversed.
Your data survives termination. Termination does not affect your rights to files the Software created, and those files remain readable without the Software.
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NONINFRINGEMENT.
The Software is a diagnostic tool that communicates with hardware you connect to it. You are responsible for the commands and data you send to your devices. The Licensor is not responsible for damage to hardware, corrupted firmware, lost data, or any other consequence of data transmitted through the Software.
The Software is not certified for use in safety-critical systems, and must not be relied upon as the sole means of verifying the behaviour of any system where failure could cause injury, death, or significant damage.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE LICENSOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR BUSINESS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE.
THE LICENSOR'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of certain liabilities. Where that is the case, the above exclusions and limitations apply only to the extent permitted, and nothing in this Agreement limits rights that cannot lawfully be limited — including statutory consumer rights.
Tracer Pro is covered by a 14-day money-back guarantee: email [email protected] within 14 days of purchase for a full refund, no reason required. The full policy is published at https://gettracer.net/refunds.
Payments are processed by Lemon Squeezy, which acts as merchant of record. A refunded license key ceases to function; files the Software created remain yours and are unaffected, per Section 3.
Entire agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement between you and the Licensor concerning the Software and supersedes any prior understanding.
Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force.
No waiver. A failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it.
Changes. The Licensor may update this Agreement for future versions of the Software. The version accompanying a release governs that release; continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
Governing law. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the United States and the State in which the Licensor resides, without regard to conflict of law principles.
