Terms of Service and Software Licence
Effective date: 1 September 2026
1. Agreement, parties, and authority
These Terms of Service and Software Licence form an agreement between you and Iron Atlas Pty Ltd ACN 699 650 283 ABN 86 699 650 283, trading as Modular MathDesk. They cover the Modular MathDesk website, accounts, billing, subscriptions, licensing, downloads, updates, support, online services, and desktop application.
By creating the controlling account, purchasing a subscription, accepting this agreement, or participating as a named beta tester, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and can enter this agreement. If you accept for an organisation, you confirm that you have authority to bind it. An employee who accepts with that authority does not become personally liable merely because the organisation controls the account.
A person under 18 may use Modular MathDesk only under the active supervision of a parent, guardian, school, university, employer, or other responsible organisation. The adult or organisation must control the account and is responsible for suitability, supervision, and required permissions. A person under 18 cannot independently purchase, control the account, accept this agreement, or participate as the named beta tester.
2. Accounts and security
You must provide accurate and current account, billing, licence, and device information. You are responsible for protecting account credentials and licence keys and for activity carried out through the account by people you authorise.
Tell [email protected] promptly if you suspect unauthorised access, a compromised credential, or misuse of a licence key. You must not share account credentials or licence keys outside the users and devices permitted by your plan.
3. Plans, billing, cancellation, and refunds
Paid subscriptions are billed through Stripe. The plan, price, billing period, renewal setting, taxes, permitted users or devices, and any trial or promotional conditions appear at checkout or in the billing portal. Iron Atlas Pty Ltd is not currently registered for GST. Unless checkout or an invoice states otherwise, a price is not represented as a GST-inclusive tax-invoice amount.
You authorise recurring charges until you cancel renewal. You can cancel through the available account billing portal or by contacting support. Cancellation ordinarily takes effect at the end of the paid period, and access continues until then, unless a non-excludable legal remedy or another right in this agreement applies.
We do not ordinarily refund a change of mind. This does not limit any refund, replacement, resupply, cancellation, or other remedy required by the Australian Consumer Law or another law that cannot be excluded. We may also state a separate refund right for a particular plan, promotion, material service reduction, or discontinuation.
4. Software licence and intellectual property
For the entitlement period, and subject to this agreement, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and use the desktop application for the number of users and devices allowed by your plan or entitlement. The software is licensed, not sold.
Iron Atlas and its licensors retain their rights in the software, website, online services, documentation, updates, licence systems, and branding. You must not resell, sublicense, lease, transfer, copy, modify, or distribute them except where this agreement or applicable law permits it.
You retain ownership of calculation documents, modules, images, exports, and other material you create or import. Using that material with Modular MathDesk does not transfer ownership to Iron Atlas.
If you voluntarily send material to us for support or a bug report, you permit us to use it only as needed to investigate, respond, protect the service, and meet legal obligations. Review files, screenshots, logs, and snapshots before sending them because they may contain confidential or sensitive material.
5. Activation, devices, and offline validation
The desktop application may require online activation and periodic validation using a licence key and a hashed hardware-derived device identifier. The current standard entitlement permits up to two active devices unless the plan or entitlement states otherwise.
The application may store the licence key and validation information locally and may use an offline cache for limited continued use between successful validations. Online validation remains necessary at the intervals set by the released application. A device change, reset, or deactivation may require support and is not guaranteed to be self-service.
You must not bypass or interfere with activation, entitlement, subscription, device-limit, update, or validation controls.
6. Local files and services you select
In the current product, Modular MathDesk documents and modules remain on your device or in storage locations you select. Modular MathDesk servers do not store those documents or modules.
You are responsible for saving, backing up, securing, sharing, and retaining your files and for checking that storage and collaboration arrangements are suitable. Cloud folders, network drives, source-control systems, backup products, and other services you choose are provided under their own terms and privacy practices, not by Iron Atlas.
7. User-selected AI services
Desktop AI features use a provider credential that you supply. The application stores that credential locally using operating-system-supported secure storage where available. When you invoke an AI feature, the application sends the request directly to the provider you selected. Iron Atlas ordinarily does not proxy, receive, or store prompts or responses from this direct flow in the current product.
A request may include prompts, worksheet text, calculation context, results, errors, file paths, and optional images. You must decide whether you are permitted to disclose that material and review the selected provider's terms, privacy practices, retention settings, model-training settings, and any downstream model provider terms.
AI output can be wrong, incomplete, unsafe, or unsuitable. Treat it as a suggestion and independently verify it before use.
8. Computational tool and independent verification
Modular MathDesk is a calculation and document-authoring tool. Iron Atlas does not provide engineering consultancy, certification, professional sign-off, or engineering, scientific, legal, financial, medical, safety, compliance, or academic advice through the product.
You are responsible for checking all inputs, formulas, assumptions, units, standards, modules, AI-assisted material, calculations, outputs, plots, imports, exports, and fitness for the intended purpose. A suitably qualified person must independently verify work before it is used for professional, regulated, safety-critical, academic, construction, manufacturing, operational, or other high-consequence purposes.
We do not promise that the software, calculations, modules, examples, documentation, imports, exports, AI integrations, or update services are error-free, omission-free, uninterrupted, complete, accurate, or suitable for every purpose. These responsibilities do not remove any non-excludable right or excuse unlawful conduct by Iron Atlas.
A closed beta or evaluation release may have separate versioned beta conditions and known limitations. Those conditions apply only to the stated beta release and do not make this permanent agreement a blanket prohibition on professional use of a paid production release.
9. Acceptable use
You must not use Modular MathDesk unlawfully, infringe another person's rights, introduce malicious code, attempt unauthorised access, share credentials or licence keys outside the entitlement, scrape or place disproportionate load on a service, or bypass licensing, activation, subscription, security, or usage controls.
You must not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the software or hosted services except to the extent applicable law permits that conduct despite this restriction. You remain responsible for complying with confidentiality, workplace, academic, export-control, third-party, and provider obligations.
10. Updates, service changes, and discontinuation
We may release updates and reasonably change features, plans, compatibility, provider support, licensing behaviour, documentation, and online services. Before relying on affected work after an update, back it up, read release notes and known limitations, and revalidate relevant inputs, calculations, modules, imports, exports, and conclusions.
If we materially reduce paid core functionality or discontinue a paid service without fault by you, we will give affected users reasonable notice where practicable. You may cancel and receive a proportionate refund of unused prepaid fees for the affected period. We may act sooner where reasonably necessary for security, fraud prevention, or legal compliance, and will explain the reason where lawful and practicable.
11. Suspension and termination
We may suspend access immediately where we reasonably identify a credible security threat, fraud, unlawful use, serious licence abuse, non-payment, or necessary legal compliance. For another remediable material breach, we will ordinarily give notice and a reasonable opportunity to fix it before suspension or termination.
Restrictions should be proportionate to the reason. We will restore access when the reason ends where restoration is lawful and practicable. You may terminate by cancelling renewal and ceasing use. We may terminate for an uncured material breach or where continuing the service would be unlawful.
When the agreement or entitlement ends, the software licence ends and you must stop using paid functionality. Your local files remain under your control. Account, billing, security, licence, support, and legal-acceptance records may be retained as described in the Privacy Policy and as required for contract administration, disputes, accounting, fraud prevention, security, and legal compliance.
12. Australian Consumer Law
Nothing in this agreement excludes, restricts, or modifies a consumer guarantee, right, remedy, or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted, or modified under the Australian Consumer Law or another applicable law.
If the Australian Consumer Law applies to a supply that is not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic, or household use or consumption, and it is fair and reasonable for us to rely on this limitation, our liability for failure to comply with a consumer guarantee is limited, at our option, for goods to replacement, repair, or payment of the cost of replacement or repair, and for services to resupply or payment of the cost of resupply. This paragraph does not limit a remedy that cannot lawfully be limited.
13. Liability
Subject to the non-excludable rights and liabilities described above, our total aggregate contractual liability arising from or relating to Modular MathDesk or this agreement is capped at the greater of A$100 or the fees you actually paid to Iron Atlas for Modular MathDesk in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim. The A$100 amount is a liability ceiling after liability is established, not an automatic payment or warranty.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, revenue, business opportunity, goodwill, anticipated savings, production, or data, except to the extent that such loss cannot lawfully be excluded. This exclusion does not remove liability for every direct or reasonably foreseeable loss.
14. Changes to this agreement
We will give notice of a material change and require fresh affirmative acceptance before continued meaningful desktop use. We will not rely only on publication or passive continued use as acceptance of a material change.
If a material change adversely reduces your rights during a paid term, you may cancel and receive a proportionate refund of unused prepaid fees. This right does not apply where the change is required by law or urgently needed for security and no reasonable alternative exists.
15. General terms and contact
Queensland law governs this agreement. The parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of Queensland courts and courts entitled to hear appeals from them.
If a provision is unenforceable, it is read down or severed only to the extent needed, and the rest continues. A delay in enforcing a right is not a waiver. Notices may be sent electronically to the current account email or published through an in-product notice where appropriate. This agreement and any stated plan or beta conditions form the entire agreement about their subject matter.
