3. Software Information
Product Name: blah.™
Version: the version accompanying this Agreement (shown in the About panel)
Platform(s): Windows and macOS desktop (downloaded/installed)
blah.™ is a local, GPU-accelerated dictation application that transcribes
the Licensee's spoken voice, automatically cleans and formats the resulting
text, and optionally translates that text into more than twenty (20)
languages of the Licensee's choosing. The Software performs all core
processing — including speech recognition, text cleanup, and translation —
locally on the Licensee's device. Voice audio and transcription output are
never transmitted to Licensor or to any remote server.
3.1 Third-Party Components
The Software incorporates third-party software components and machine-
learning model weights, including components licensed under open-source
licenses (such as whisper.cpp, Apple MLX, and FFmpeg) and the Gemma language
model, which is provided subject to Google's Gemma Terms of Use and
Prohibited Use Policy. These components are governed by their own license
terms, copies of which are included with the Software (see
THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.txt and the licenses folder inside the application
bundle). Nothing in this Agreement limits any rights granted to You by an
applicable third-party or open-source license, and Your use of the Gemma
model weights bundled with the Software is subject to Google's Gemma
Prohibited Use Policy.
4. Copyright Notice
The Software, including all code, documentation, user interface elements,
audio processing algorithms, translation modules, and associated materials,
is the exclusive intellectual property of Clover LDT, LLC or its licensors
and is protected by the copyright laws of the United States, the State of
Idaho, and applicable international treaties and conventions.
© 2026 Clover LDT, LLC. All rights reserved. blah.™ is a trademark of
Clover LDT, LLC. Unauthorized reproduction, distribution,
modification, reverse engineering, or commercial exploitation of the
Software, in whole or in part, is strictly prohibited and will be
prosecuted to the fullest extent permitted by law.
5. Infringement Acknowledgment
By accepting this Agreement, the Licensee expressly acknowledges and agrees
that:
The Software is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws;
Any unauthorized copying, modification, distribution, sale, sublicensing, or
reverse engineering of the Software constitutes copyright infringement and
may also constitute a violation of trade secret, patent, and other laws;
Responsibility for any copyright infringement arising from the Licensee's
use or misuse of the Software is assigned solely to the Licensee; and
Clover LDT, LLC reserves the right to pursue all available legal and
equitable remedies for any infringement, including injunctive relief and
monetary damages.
6. License Grant
Subject to the Licensee's full compliance with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, Clover LDT, LLC hereby grants the Licensee a limited,
personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable
license to:
Download, install, and use one (1) copy of the Software on one (1)
Authorized Device at a time, owned or controlled by the Licensee;
Use the Software in the Licensee's personal capacity, including for the
Licensee's own professional and workplace purposes; and
Access support resources made available by Licensor in connection with the
Software.
This license is personal to You. It does not permit reselling the Software,
providing the Software or its output as a service to third parties,
deploying the Software for use by other individuals, or purchasing on
behalf of an organization for multiple users — each user requires their own
license. Volume and organizational licensing are available from Licensor on
request.
This license does not constitute a sale of the Software or any copy thereof.
Clover LDT, LLC retains all right, title, and interest in and to the
Software, including all intellectual property rights therein.
7. Authorized Device and Activation
The license granted in Section 6 is limited to one (1) Authorized Device at
a time. Activation binds the License Key to the Authorized Device using a
one-way cryptographic hash of a hardware identifier; the raw hardware
identifier never leaves the device.
The Licensee may move the license to a different device once every sixty
(60) days by deactivating the Software on the current Authorized Device
(via the in-application deactivation control) and then activating it on
the new device. Deactivation is the only self-serve way to release a
license from a device; there are no automatic or forced transfers. If the
Authorized Device has been lost or has failed and cannot be deactivated,
contact Licensor support at support@blah.audio for assistance.
Deactivation releases the license from the device. The Licensee must not
retain, copy, or restore license files in order to continue using the
Software on a device after it has been deactivated, or to use the Software
on more devices than licensed; any such use is unlicensed and a material
breach of this Agreement. (Restoring a device from a backup while it
remains the licensed Authorized Device — for example, a system restore —
is permitted.)
Licensee must not share, publish, transfer, or reassign License Key
credentials to any other person. Installation for use by other individuals
or entities is not permitted under this Agreement and requires the purchase
of a separate license.
8. Restrictions on Use
Licensee shall not, and shall not permit any third party to, do any of the
following:
Reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, decode, adapt, or otherwise
attempt to derive or gain access to the source code of the Software, in
whole or in part, except to the extent such activity is expressly permitted
by applicable law or by an applicable open-source license notwithstanding
this limitation;
Copy, reproduce, or duplicate the Software except as expressly permitted by
this Agreement;
Distribute, sell, resell, transfer, assign, sublicense, lend, rent, lease,
or otherwise make the Software available to any third party;
Modify, translate, adapt, or create derivative works based upon the
Software;
Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright notice, trademark, or proprietary
legend appearing on or within the Software;
Circumvent, disable, or tamper with the License Key activation mechanism or
any other technological protection measure in the Software, including by
retaining or restoring license files to evade deactivation;
Use the Software for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable
law or regulation, or use the bundled Gemma model in violation of Google's
Gemma Prohibited Use Policy;
Export or re-export the Software in violation of United States export
control laws and regulations; or
Resell the Software or provide it (or its output) as a commercial service
to third parties without a separate agreement with Licensor.
9. User Data and Privacy
The Software performs all dictation processing locally. Voice audio,
transcripts, and Software output are processed entirely on the Licensee's
device and are never transmitted to Licensor. The Software contains no
analytics, telemetry, or tracking.
Licensor collects only the limited information necessary to sell and manage
licenses:
Licensee email address (for license delivery, license management, and
support communications);
At activation: the License Key, a one-way cryptographic hash of a device
hardware identifier (the raw identifier never leaves the device), and an
optional device nickname supplied by the Licensee (used to identify the
activation, e.g. "my laptop").
Purchases are processed by Licensor's merchant of record (Paddle), which
handles payment and billing information under its own terms and privacy
policy; Licensor does not receive or store Your full payment card details.
Clover LDT, LLC processes Personal Data in compliance with the following
frameworks, to the extent applicable:
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679; and
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 et
seq., and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).
Licensor will not sell Licensee's Personal Data to third parties. Licensees
in applicable jurisdictions retain rights to access, correct, delete, or
port their Personal Data by contacting Licensor at support@blah.audio. A
full Privacy Policy governing data practices is incorporated by reference;
it is included with the Software and available at Licensor's official
website.
10. Maintenance and Support
10.1 Standard Support
Licensor provides standard support to Licensees via:
Email support at support@blah.audio during normal business hours (Mountain
Time, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays); and
An online Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) resource accessible through
Licensor's official website.
Licensor will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to support
inquiries in a timely manner. Response times are not guaranteed.
10.2 Updates and Upgrade Window
The license granted under this Agreement is perpetual with respect to any
version of the Software released on or before the end of the Licensee's
Upgrade Window (twelve (12) months from the date of purchase). During the
Upgrade Window, all Software updates released by Licensor — including new
features, enhancements, compatibility updates, and bug fixes — are included
at no additional charge.
Versions released after the Upgrade Window ends require the purchase of a
license renewal at Licensor's then-current pricing. If the Licensee chooses
not to renew, the Licensee may continue to use, forever, any version
released during the Upgrade Window; the Software does not expire, phone
home, or disable itself.
10.3 Scheduled Maintenance
The Software's dictation functionality operates entirely locally and is not
affected by any server maintenance. Licensor's activation service may be
briefly unavailable from time to time; this affects only new activations
and device moves, never already-activated Software.
10.4 Refunds
Purchases may be refunded within fourteen (14) days of purchase through
Licensor's merchant of record, subject to its checkout terms. Deactivating
the Software on the Authorized Device is required as part of any refund;
upon refund, the license is cancelled and the Licensee must cease use of
and remove the Software.
11. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
CLOVER LDT, LLC EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO: (A) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT; (B) ANY WARRANTY ARISING
FROM COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE; AND (C) ANY WARRANTY THAT
THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER
HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
Transcription, text cleanup, and translation are produced by on-device
machine-learning models. Licensor does not warrant the accuracy,
completeness, or suitability of any transcription, cleanup, translation, or
other output produced by the Software; such output may contain errors,
omissions, or alterations of meaning. Results may vary based on hardware
capability, microphone quality, ambient noise, speaker accent, and other
factors outside Licensor's control. The Licensee is responsible for
reviewing Software output before relying on it, and assumes all risk
associated with such reliance.
12. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL
CLOVER LDT, LLC, ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR
LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL,
PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF
PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, BUSINESS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE,
EVEN IF CLOVER LDT, LLC HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
In no event shall Licensor's total cumulative liability to Licensee under
this Agreement exceed the total amounts actually paid by Licensee to
Licensor for the Software license.
13. Relevant Laws and Governing Jurisdiction
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Idaho, United States of America, without regard to its
conflict of law principles. The following laws and regulations are relevant

located in Kootenai County, Idaho. Licensee waives any objection to venue in
such courts. LICENSEE WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY
DISPUTE ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

agreement between the parties with respect to the Software and supersedes
all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, warranties, and
understandings with respect to the Software.
17.2 Severability

the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified to the minimum
extent necessary to make it enforceable.
17.3 No Waiver
Licensor's failure to enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall
not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. A waiver of any breach
of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.

Licensee may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the
prior written consent of Licensor. Licensor may freely assign this Agreement
in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or

Licensor reserves the right to modify this Agreement for future versions of
the Software. Licensor will provide notice of material changes via email or
through the Software. Amendments will not materially reduce the license
rights of licenses already purchased. Continued use of the Software after
such notice constitutes Licensee's acceptance of the amended Agreement.
