Terms of Use

Last updated: October 2026

Please read these Terms of Use ("Terms") carefully before using Maskeno Desktop ("the Application"). By installing or using the Application, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. License Grant

Subject to these Terms and payment of applicable license fees, Creatiwi AI grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Application on devices you own or control, solely for your personal or internal business purposes.

2. License Restrictions

You may not:

  • Copy, modify, or distribute the Application
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Application
  • Rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, or transfer the Application to any third party
  • Remove or alter any proprietary notices, labels, or marks on the Application
  • Use the Application to develop competing products

3. Open Source Components

The Application uses @maskeno/core and other open-source libraries. These components are licensed under their respective open-source licenses (primarily MIT License) and are not subject to these Terms. You may use those components in accordance with their licenses. See the Maskeno repository for details.

4. Third-Party Services

The Application can integrate with third-party services that you choose to configure, including but not limited to:

  • OpenRouter — the optional "Ask AI" feature, used with your own API key (masked text only)
  • OpenAI — the ChatGPT link, which opens your prompt with the masked text in your web browser
  • Polar.sh (license activation and payments)

Your use of these services is governed by their respective terms and privacy policies. Creatiwi AI is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or conduct of third-party services. We do not control, endorse, or accept liability for any third-party service.

5. Data Handling

All PII detection and redaction runs locally on your device, and so do text extraction and OCR (with the built-in Tesseract engine or Ollama on your own computer; there is no cloud OCR). The Application does not send your original documents to any service, and your document content and detected PII are not collected by us. The Application does send a pseudonymous machine identifier, platform, app version, and trial usage counts to our trial server for trial enforcement, and (if you enter one) a license key to Polar.sh. Optional Ask AI requests (masked text only), downloads of detection models and OCR language data, opt-in analytics, and feedback submissions transmit data as described in our Privacy Policy. Please review it for the full list of network touchpoints.

6. API Keys and Costs

You are solely responsible for:

  • Obtaining and managing your own API keys from third-party providers
  • Any costs incurred from your use of third-party APIs
  • Compliance with each provider's terms of service and acceptable use policies

7. Content Responsibility

You are responsible for ensuring you have the necessary rights to any content you process using the Application, including documents, images, and text submitted for detection, redaction, or OCR.

The Application is a tool. Redaction is best-effort and may miss or over-redact information; you remain responsible for verifying that a document is adequately redacted before sharing it. Creatiwi AI makes no claims about content ownership or copyright status of materials you process.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APPLICATION IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

Creatiwi AI does not warrant that:

  • The Application will meet your requirements
  • The Application will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free
  • PII detection will identify every piece of sensitive information, or that redaction will be complete
  • Any errors in the Application will be corrected

9. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CREATIWI AI BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM:

  • Your use or inability to use the Application
  • Any sensitive information that was not detected or redacted by the Application
  • Any third-party service integrated with the Application
  • Any errors, mistakes, or inaccuracies of content
  • Any other matter relating to the Application

10. Updates to Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Application after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

11. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your license immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including if you breach these Terms. Upon termination, you must cease all use of the Application and destroy all copies.

12. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Poland, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. For EU consumers, mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence will apply.

13. Dispute Resolution

Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be resolved through good faith negotiations. If negotiations fail, disputes shall be submitted to the courts of competent jurisdiction in Poland. EU consumers may also use the EU Online Dispute Resolution platform.
