Falling← OffDisk - Offline Disk Catalog & Finder
Terms of use — OffDisk - Offline Disk Catalog & Finder
These Terms and Conditions govern the use of the Windows application "OffDisk" (the "App"), a paid application made available through the Microsoft Store by FallingBit (the "Developer"). By installing or using the App you accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the App.

2. Purchase, Microsoft Store license and refunds
The App is purchased from the Microsoft Store. Sale, payment, any free trials and refunds are handled by Microsoft under its own terms. The Microsoft Store Standard Application License Terms also apply to the App and set out, among other things, on which devices you can install it with your Microsoft account. The free trial offered through the Microsoft Store includes all the features of the App but allows you to catalog only one disk; when you buy the App the limit is removed and the catalog created during the trial remains available. These Terms supplement them: in case of conflict, Microsoft's terms prevail, to the extent permitted by law.
3. License
The Developer grants you a personal, limited, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to install and use the App in accordance with the Microsoft Store rules. You may also use the App for your professional activity, to catalog disks belonging to you or your organization. You may not copy, distribute, resell, rent, modify, create derivative works of, decompile, disassemble or reverse engineer the App, or attempt to extract its source code, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits it and cannot be waived.
4. Intellectual property
The App, including its code, interface, graphics, names, trademarks and logos, is protected by copyright and intellectual property laws and remains the property of the Developer or its licensors. The App includes third-party components distributed under open licenses, whose texts can be viewed in the App (Settings > Third-party licenses). These Terms grant you no rights other than the license described above. You may not remove or alter any copyright or trademark notices in the App.
5. What the App does and its limits
The App reads the information of the files on the disks and folders you choose (names, paths, sizes, dates and, if you enable it, some details of photos, videos and audio files and the text of documents) and saves it in a catalog on your computer. The App does not modify, move or delete the files on the cataloged disks.
OffDisk is not a backup program for your files: the catalog contains the list and details of the files (at most, if you enable it, the text of documents), not the files themselves, and it cannot recover lost or damaged files. The catalog reflects the contents of each disk at the time it was last cataloged: if the contents change, you need to update it to keep search results accurate.
The automatic backups of the catalog reduce the risk of losing it, but keeping them safe, for example on another disk, remains your responsibility.
6. Acceptable use
You agree to use the App lawfully, to catalog only disks and folders you are entitled to access, and not to: (a) circumvent its technical measures, including the Microsoft Store licensing measures; (b) interfere with its operation; (c) use it for unlawful purposes.
If the catalog contains personal data of other people (for example in file names, photo previews or the text of documents), you are the one processing it, on your computer: use it in compliance with the applicable data protection law.
7. Technical requirements
The App requires 64-bit Windows 10 or Windows 11 and the Microsoft Edge WebView2 component, already included in Windows 11 and in up-to-date versions of Windows 10. The App works without an internet connection. The security of your computer and of the data stored on it is your responsibility.
8. Updates, changes and discontinuation
The Developer may update or change the App, for example to fix errors, improve its features or adapt it to new versions of Windows, and may stop distributing it. Updates are distributed through the Microsoft Store. Discontinuing distribution does not prevent you from continuing to use the copy you purchased, within the limits of the Microsoft Store rules. The App may not be compatible with every version of the operating system. We recommend installing updates: otherwise the App may not work properly.
9. Termination
In the event of a material breach of these Terms, the Developer may revoke the license. If the breach can be remedied, you will be given 14 days from notice to remedy it. In the event of serious breaches (for example infringement of intellectual property rights or circumvention of licensing measures) the license may be revoked immediately. Upon termination you must uninstall the App.
10. Warranties and liability
The App is provided "as is", to the extent permitted by law. The Developer does not warrant that it is free of errors, or that the catalog is always complete and up to date.
To the extent permitted by law, the Developer is not liable for indirect or consequential damages, such as loss of data, time or profit. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits the Developer's liability for wilful misconduct or gross negligence, for death or personal injury, or the rights that the law, in particular the Italian Consumer Code (Legislative Decree 206/2005) and the rules on digital content, grants to consumers and that cannot be waived, including the legal guarantee of conformity.
11. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by Italian law. If you are a consumer, the mandatory consumer protection rules of the country where you live remain applicable and, for disputes, the court of the consumer's place of residence or domicile, where provided for by law. For any other dispute, the Court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere has jurisdiction, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of law.
12. Severability and entire agreement
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in force. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and the Microsoft Store terms, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Developer regarding the use of the App.
13. Changes to these Terms
The Developer may update these Terms, for example following changes to the App or to the law. The updated version will be published at this address with the new date. If you continue to use the App after publication, the changes apply from that moment, without prejudice to your statutory rights. Previous versions are available on request.
