Terms of Service

Last Updated: June 24, 2025


Welcome to the Terms of Service for Rhythm Seven Software. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our website (rhythmseven.com), services, the Aquila desktop application ("Aquila"), and the Aquila Activator application. By accessing or using our services, purchasing an Aquila license, or activating a license, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our services. These Terms apply to all customers and potential customers, as defined in our Legal Policies.

1. Definitions

  • Aquila: The Windows desktop application provided by Rhythm Seven Software, accessible through a valid license.
  • Aquila License: A right granted upon purchase to use Aquila on up to three (3) computers concurrently. The license is non-transferable, meaning it cannot be sold, gifted, or assigned to another person or entity.
  • Aquila Activator: A Windows application installed alongside Aquila that allows a user to activate, deactivate, and manage their Aquila License using an Activation Code.
  • Activation Code: A unique code emailed to you upon purchase, used with your registered name within the Aquila Activator to activate your license on up to three (3) computers.
  • API: Our web server's Application Programming Interface, used by the Aquila Activator to securely verify and manage licenses.
  • Services: Includes the rhythmseven.com website, Aquila, the Aquila Activator, the API, and all related support services.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old or have the legal authority to enter into these Terms on behalf of an entity. By using our Services, you represent that you meet these requirements.

3. License to Use Aquila

3.1 Grant of License: Upon purchasing an Aquila License and successfully activating it, Rhythm Seven Software grants you a non-exclusive, revocable license to install and use Aquila on up to three (3) computers for personal or business purposes, subject to these Terms. This license is non-transferable and cannot be sold or reassigned to another person or entity; however, you may transfer activations between your own computers as described below.

3.2 License Activation: To activate your license, you must enter your registered name and a valid Activation Code into the Aquila Activator. The Activator securely hashes this information before sending it to our API for verification. Upon success, a license file is installed on your computer, and your available activation count is reduced.

3.3 License Deactivation, Transfer, and Reset: You have the following options for managing your activations via the Aquila Activator, both of which require an internet connection:

  • Deactivation: You may deactivate a license on one computer to free up an activation slot. This allows you to then activate the license on another computer, provided the total number of active computers does not exceed three.
  • Reset (Deactivate All): You may use the "Deactivate All" function to remotely deactivate the license on all computers at once. This function is designed to help you recover activations from computers you no longer have access to. Using this feature will reset your available activation count to the maximum of three.

3.4 License Restrictions: You may not:

  • Use the Aquila License on more than three (3) computers concurrently.
  • Share your Activation Code or Aquila License with any other person or entity.
  • Copy, modify, distribute, sell, or rent Aquila or its license file.
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code of Aquila or the Aquila Activator.
  • Attempt to tamper with, bypass, or interfere with the license verification, activation, or deactivation processes.

3.5 Trial Version: Trial versions of Aquila, provided via MailerLite, are subject to these Terms but may have limited functionality or duration. Trial licenses expire automatically and are offered free of charge.

4. Use of the Website and API

4.1 Website Access: You may access rhythmseven.com to purchase a license, download setup files, view documentation, or submit inquiries via our Contact Form. You agree to use the website in compliance with all applicable laws and these Terms.

4.2 API Usage: The API is intended for the exclusive use of the Aquila Activator to manage licenses. You agree not to access, overload, or interact with the API through any other means.

5. Purchases and Refunds

5.1 Purchases: An Aquila license is purchased via our website, with payment processed by Stripe and fulfillment managed by MailerLite. Upon purchase, you will receive an Activation Code via email, which is required to activate your license using the Aquila Activator on up to three (3) computers.

5.2 Refunds: You may request a refund within seven (7) days of purchase, provided the license has not yet been activated on any computer, as detailed in our Refund Policy. Once you activate your Aquila License, the purchase is considered final and non-refundable.

6. Your Responsibilities

You agree to:

  • Provide accurate and current information when making a purchase or contacting support.
  • Keep your Activation Code confidential and secure from unauthorized use.
  • Use the Aquila Activator to manage your activations within the three-computer limit.
  • Use all Services, including Aquila and the Aquila Activator, in compliance with these Terms and all applicable laws.
  • Notify us promptly via our Contact Form if you suspect any unauthorized use of your license or Activation Code.

8. Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. Our collection and use of your personal information are governed by our Privacy Policy. By using our Services, you consent to the data practices described therein.

9. Termination

9.1 By You: You may terminate your Aquila License at any time by uninstalling Aquila and destroying the license file on all activated computers. Termination does not entitle you to a refund if your purchase falls outside our Refund Policy.

9.2 By Rhythm Seven Software: We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your license and access to our Services immediately, without prior notice, if you violate these Terms. Upon termination, your Activation Code will be disabled, and you must cease all use of Aquila and destroy all copies of its license file.
