1.2 License
MouseWizard grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Software for personal or commercial purposes on devices you own or control. You may not:
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software
- Redistribute, sublicense, or resell the Software
- Remove or alter any proprietary notices or labels

1.4 Intellectual Property
The Software, its code, design, logo, and all related materials are the intellectual property of MouseWizard and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
1.5 Updates
The Software may check for updates periodically. We reserve the right to release updates, patches, or new versions at any time. Continued use of the Software after an update constitutes acceptance of any modified terms.
1.6 Availability
MouseWizard is provided as a local network tool. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability of the download servers, update servers, or any online services. The Software itself operates peer-to-peer on your local network and does not depend on our servers to function.
1.7 Disclaimer of Warranties
The Software 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, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Software will be error-free, secure, or meet your specific requirements.
1.8 Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, MouseWizard and its developers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of profits, or business interruption, arising out of or related to your use of the Software, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
Our total liability for any claim arising from these terms or your use of the Software shall not exceed the amount you paid for the Software in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.
1.9 Termination
We may terminate or suspend your license at any time if you violate these Terms. Upon termination, you must stop using and uninstall the Software. Sections on intellectual property, disclaimers, and limitation of liability survive termination.
1.10 Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of the Netherlands.
1.11 Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the Software after changes constitutes acceptance.
2. Privacy Policy
2.1 Overview
MouseWizard is designed with privacy as a core principle. The Software operates entirely on your local network. Your input data (mouse movements, keystrokes, clipboard contents) is transmitted directly between your computers over an encrypted connection and never passes through our servers.
2.2 Data We Collect
We collect minimal data:
- Update checks: When the Software checks for updates, it sends your current version number, operating system, and architecture to our update server. This data is not stored or linked to any identity.
- Download counts: We track aggregate download counts for each platform. No personal information is associated with these counts.
- Trial and licensing: To start a free trial or activate a license, the Software sends your email address, a one-way hashed device identifier, your device's hostname, platform, and app version to our license server. We use this solely to administer trials and licenses and to contact you about your license. We do not sell or share this data.
2.3 Data We Do Not Collect
We do not collect:
- Keystrokes, mouse movements, or clipboard contents
- Raw hardware identifiers (the license server only receives a one-way hash)
- Usage analytics or behavioral data from the Software
- Screen content or screenshots
2.4 Local Network Data
All data shared between your computers (mouse input, keyboard input, clipboard contents) travels directly between devices on your local network using peer-to-peer connections encrypted with TLS 1.3. This data never reaches our servers.
2.5 Encryption
All peer-to-peer communication is encrypted using TLS 1.3 with self-signed certificates and trust-on-first-use verification (similar to SSH). Optional password protection adds an additional layer of authentication.
2.6 Third-Party Services
The Software does not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. Nothing you do inside the app is measured or reported.
This website is a separate matter. It is hosted on Cloudflare, which may process standard web request metadata (IP address, user agent) as part of its infrastructure. We also use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read, which sets cookies in your browser and sends usage data to Google.
Google Analytics only runs if you agree to it. Until you press Accept on the cookie banner, nothing is requested from Google and no analytics cookie exists. Declining, or simply ignoring the banner, leaves the site fully functional. You can change your answer at any time through Cookie settings in the footer; we remember your choice in your browser for six months and then ask again. Analytics run on this website only — never in the app, and never on a page that handles your license or email preferences. Refer to Cloudflare's Privacy Policy and Google's Privacy Policy for details.
2.7 Payment Processing
If you make a purchase, payment is processed by Paddle, our Merchant of Record. Paddle handles all billing, sales tax, and payment processing. We do not store your credit card number or payment details. Paddle processes your financial data according to their Privacy Policy and PCI-DSS standards.
2.8 Children's Privacy
The Software is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
2.9 Your Rights
Since we collect virtually no personal data, there is typically nothing to request access to or delete. If you have contacted us and wish to have your correspondence removed, email us and we will comply. Under the GDPR and similar regulations, you have the right to:
- Access any personal data we may hold
- Request correction or deletion of that data
- Object to processing of your data
- Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
2.10 Changes to Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
3. Refund Policy
3.1 Free Version
If you are using the free version of MouseWizard, no payment is required and no refund applies.
3.2 Paid Purchases
If you purchased a paid version or license of MouseWizard, we offer a 14-day money-back guarantee from the date of purchase. If the Software does not meet your expectations, you may request a full refund within 14 days of purchase with no questions asked.
3.3 How to Request a Refund
To request a refund, contact us at [email protected] with your purchase receipt or order number. We aim to process refunds within 5-10 business days.
3.4 After 14 Days
After the 14-day period, refunds are granted at our discretion. We may offer a refund if the Software has a critical defect that prevents normal use and we are unable to resolve it within a reasonable time frame.
3.5 Refund Method
Refunds are issued to the original payment method. Depending on your bank or payment provider, it may take additional time for the refund to appear on your statement.
