TAKT Product Licence and Hosted Terms
Version a93d825c3da0
Version: 31 October 2026.
1. The seller and TAKT
ABX DEVELOPMENT LLP (TAKT) is the software licensor and technical service provider, a Scottish limited liability partnership, SO301872, registered office 39/5 Granton Crescent, Edinburgh, EH5 1BN, United Kingdom. Product support and complaints: [email protected].
These terms cover catalogue downloads, build-service products and hosted runs for consumers and businesses. Separately agreed custom business services use our Terms of Service (https://taktcycles.com/legal/terms.html). Those custom terms do not govern catalogue purchases.
Your purchase is from the independent merchant of record identified in checkout and your receipt. Its purchase terms govern the sale, payment, tax, cancellation and payment refunds. These TAKT terms govern our licence, product support and hosted performance; they do not replace the seller's obligations or your mandatory consumer rights. The seller's identity, address, contact details including telephone, purchase terms and privacy notice are shown before payment. Existing orders retain their accepted terms.
2. Your order
Only products marked Available can be ordered. The product page and checkout identify the version, supported systems, functionality, dependencies, restrictions, delivery time, licence period, support and performance conditions. Prices shown before payment include applicable VAT for your country and unavoidable charges. Give the seller accurate billing and residence information. A changed total requires your agreement before payment.
For a build-service product, the order pays for the stated preparation, verification, delivery and support, or for future builds during the stated service term. The product page identifies the delivered software and its licence. Rights in GPL- or LGPL-covered software are granted under the applicable open-source licence, without a separate TAKT licence fee for exercising those rights.
An annual term shows the entire amount payable; a monthly equivalent does not mean monthly billing. It ends without automatic renewal. The order confirmation includes the agreed product information, the seller's purchase terms and these terms in a form you can keep. Later website changes do not rewrite your order. The seller collects payment and issues the purchase receipt. An existing TAKT account balance is not a payment method for this reseller purchase.
3. Licence and updates
Open-source components retain their identified licences. Those licences prevail for those components over conflicting provisions of these terms, including user or workstation limits, expiry, resale, modification and reverse-engineering restrictions. Our proprietary licence applies only to separately identified TAKT proprietary software. You may use, modify and redistribute GPL-covered deliveries under the GPL, including after a paid build or support term ends. We provide the required Corresponding Source with the delivery or through the Source download beside it at no additional charge.
Unless the product page grants more, the licence is non-exclusive for one named user on one workstation at a time; you may move it to a replacement workstation and keep backups. A product sold with a perpetual licence permits perpetual use of the purchased version. A fixed-term licence or subscription permits use for the stated paid term, with no automatic renewal. Free features and third-party components retain their stated licences; mandatory third-party rights prevail.
Subscriptions include updates released for that product during the term and installation/defect support by email. Perpetual purchases include 30 days of installation support; new major versions are separate unless included. Conformity support and necessary updates, including security updates, remain available without extra payment for the legally required period.
For build-service subscriptions, the stated term covers future builds and support, not the duration of rights in copies already received under the GPL. The term ends without automatic renewal. Ending optional support does not remove legally required conformity support or updates.
No standalone resale, shared licences, bypassing licence restrictions or reverse engineering our proprietary methods, except where mandatory law or third-party licences permit it. Any activation, network or expiry checks are disclosed before purchase. Existing perpetual licences remain perpetual.
For a combined product using an LGPL library, you may modify or replace the library and reverse engineer the combined product to debug those modifications as permitted by the LGPL. The delivery identifies the library, includes its licences and notices, and provides the replacement instructions or relinking materials required by that licence.
4. Delivery and our performance promise
Downloads identify their version and SHA-256 checksum. Each product page describes runtime network access, child processes and file writes separately from installation. Verification scripts check the stated cases; they do not certify your whole computer's security.
Our additional money-back promise applies if your supported workload fails the minimum speed-up or required output equivalence recorded before purchase. The offer identifies the original version, workload, hardware/software, metric, minimum and verification method. Benchmark examples alone do not promise the same speed on every computer.
Claim through your order or our email within 14 days after delivery or the relevant hosted result, supplying available verification output. We review promptly and request only necessary reproduction information. If the agreed test fails, we fund and arrange a refund through the seller of the affected item's full price, including tax, within 14 days of confirming the failure. No TAKT or seller fee is deducted from that refund. This promise survives immediate-download consent and does not limit statutory remedies or their longer time limits.
5. Cancellation and remedies
UK/EU consumers normally have 14 days after contracting to withdraw. Submit a clear cancellation notice directly to the seller using the contact or withdrawal function identified in your order. Our dashboard's Withdraw from contract link takes you to that seller's function; email or letter remains available. Keep the seller's confirmation. TAKT also assists with product-related claims.
For paid downloads, early supply requires separate express consent and acknowledgement that the cancellation right ends when supply begins, confirmed on a durable medium. For hosted services, early performance requires an express request; a proportionate charge on cancellation needs prior disclosure, and the right ends on full performance only with prior acknowledgement. Without the necessary request or consent, we wait until the cancellation period ends. Each component of a bundle keeps its applicable rights.
Calling a product a build service does not remove consumer rights in downloadable software. Any separately supplied service and digital content retain their applicable cancellation and conformity rights.
The seller provides the cancellation instructions, model form and payment refunds under its terms and mandatory law. Faulty or misdescribed products retain statutory correction, repeat performance, price reduction and refund rights where applicable. Our licence and performance promise do not reduce them.
6. Hosted work, responsibility and disputes
Submit only technical inputs you are authorised to provide, without personal data about individuals; personal-data jobs need a separately agreed business service with Annex A. We use inputs only for your job, keep them confidential, return results and delete inputs/results 30 days after creation; download results in time. Our Privacy Notice explains our account records and backup handling. The order fixes the workload, metering and maximum charge; extra paid work needs agreement.
For our obligations, consumers can recover foreseeable loss caused by our breach. Business liability is capped at the affected order price. Neither limit excludes fraud, negligent death/personal injury, mandatory remedies, refunds or legally required repair/compensation for device or data damage. The seller remains responsible for its own obligations.
Scottish law governs our relationship without removing mandatory protection in your country of habitual residence. Consumers may use courts available under mandatory jurisdiction rules, including their home courts where applicable. Business disputes with TAKT use Scottish courts; no compulsory arbitration applies. This clause does not change the seller's purchase terms.
