Terms of Service

Last updated: May 17, 2026

Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding agreement between you and LightPath Apps LLC ("we," "us," or "our") concerning your use of the Hitspace app (the "App"). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the terms, you may not use the App.

Description of Service

Hitspace is a developer-focused preview utility — a "Quick Look for developers" — that renders Markdown, JSON, YAML, and 30+ code languages with syntax highlighting. On macOS, Hitspace integrates with Finder's Quick Look so you can press Space to view formatted previews of supported files. Hitspace is currently available on the Mac App Store (macOS) with an iOS version in development. These Terms apply to both platforms once they launch.

License

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes in accordance with these Terms.

Free and Premium Features

Hitspace is currently offered as a one-time purchase through the Mac App Store. We may introduce additional paid features, subscriptions, or other forms of monetization in the future. We reserve the right to change pricing, feature availability, and tier composition at any time, subject to applicable platform policies and the Changes to Terms section below.

All purchases are final and processed through the Apple App Store. Refund requests must be directed to Apple.

Intellectual Property Rights

The App and its original content, features, and functionality are owned by LightPath Apps LLC and are protected by international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You retain all rights to the files you preview using the App. The App does not claim any ownership over content you process using the App.

Your Responsibilities

When using the App, you agree to:

  • Use the App only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms
  • Ensure you have the right to access and preview any files you open with the App
  • Not attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App
  • Not use the App in any way that could damage, disable, or impair its functionality
  • Not attempt to circumvent technical protections, license checks, or platform-imposed restrictions

File Access

Hitspace renders previews by reading the contents of files you explicitly select through the operating system's preview or file-opening mechanisms (such as Quick Look on macOS or the Files app on iOS). By using the App, you understand that:

  • The App reads file contents only for the files you choose to preview, and only for as long as needed to render the preview
  • All rendering happens locally on your device — files are never uploaded, transmitted, or shared
  • The App does not access your camera, photo library, contacts, location, microphone, or any network-based services

Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT:

  • The App will be uninterrupted or error-free
  • Every supported file type or language will render perfectly in every edge case
  • Syntax highlighting or formatting will exactly match any particular editor, IDE, or specification
  • The App will be compatible with every future version of macOS or iOS

Limitation of Liability

IN NO EVENT SHALL LIGHTPATH APPS LLC, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

  • Loss of data or content
  • Loss of profits or revenue
  • Decisions or actions taken based on a rendered preview
  • Any damages arising from your use or inability to use the App

Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid for the App in the 12 months preceding the claim.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless LightPath Apps LLC from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of the App or violation of these Terms.

Modifications to the App

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the App at any time without notice. We shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the App.

Changes to Terms

We may revise these Terms at any time. Changes are effective when posted. Your continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

Venue and Forum

Any judicial proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia. You consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.

Time Limit on Claims

Any claim or cause of action arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App must be filed within one (1) year of the date the claim or cause of action arose, regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, except where prohibited by applicable law.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
