Terms of Service for TensorPM

Version 1.6 – Last updated: January 26, 2026

Important – Please Read Carefully

By downloading, installing, or using the TensorPM software ("Software"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download, install, or use the Software.

1. License Grant

Simon Schwer ("Licensor") hereby grants you ("Licensee") a non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to use the TensorPM software for both personal and commercial purposes. Both individuals and companies may use the Software, provided they comply with the terms set forth herein. This license authorizes you to install and use the Software on your devices.

2. Service Description and Eligibility

2.1 Age Requirements

The Software is intended for users who are at least 16 years of age. By using the Software, you represent and warrant that you are at least 16 years old.

2.2 Service Modes

TensorPM is a project management software with multiple modes of operation:

a) No AI Mode: All data is stored locally on your device. No project data is transferred outside of your computer. The Software connects to an update server to check for new versions and tracks anonymous installation statistics.

b) API Key Mode: You may use your own API key from Google(Gemini), OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), Mistral, or other supported AI providers to utilize AI services. In this mode, project and user data is transferred directly to the respective third-party AI service provider's servers. Where supported and enabled, your API keys are stored encrypted using operating system features (e.g., Keychain / DPAPI). If OS-level encryption is unavailable or disabled, keys are stored locally on your device in unencrypted form (never transmitted to us). The Licensor acts solely as a software provider and does not process this data server-side.

c) TensorPM Subscription Service: We provide access to AI services through our proxy server using Google Cloud (Vertex AI) with Gemini models and Mistral AI with Mistral models. All new users receive a free trial with 50 AI requests using Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite, which never expires. For users who wish to access more advanced features, the Pro subscription is available with 500 AI requests per month (configurable and subject to change with notice), which is technically enforced server-side and displayed in-app. Our subscription service uses Google Cloud Vertex AI infrastructure with Gemini language models and Mistral AI with Mistral language models. Both providers process data within the European Union.

d) Local AI Mode: You may use locally hosted AI models on your own device through compatible frameworks such as LM Studio, vLLM, or Ollama. In Local AI Mode:

  • All AI processing occurs entirely on your local device
  • No project data or AI requests are transmitted to TensorPM servers or any third-party AI service providers
  • You are solely responsible for obtaining, installing, and configuring compatible local AI frameworks and models
  • You are responsible for ensuring compliance with the licenses of any AI models you use locally
  • TensorPM provides only the software interface to connect to locally running AI services and bears no responsibility for the models themselves, their outputs, or any consequences of their use
  • Local AI functionality depends on the capabilities and compatibility of your chosen local AI framework and models
  • We do not guarantee compatibility with all local AI frameworks or models, and functionality may vary
  • Performance and quality of AI features depend entirely on your local hardware and chosen models

e) Cloud Sync (Cloud & Pro): If you enable Cloud Sync, selected project data is transmitted to and stored on our servers to synchronize your projects across devices. Cloud Sync is available for Cloud and Pro accounts (including trials). Cloud Sync is implemented using PowerSync synchronization technology operated by us on our infrastructure. If you use shared workspaces, users you invite to the same workspace can access shared workspace data.

Cloud Sync uses end-to-end encryption (E2E) for workspace content: encryption and decryption happen on your devices. Content is stored on our servers only in encrypted form; we cannot decrypt it. For technical reasons, some metadata (e.g., workspace IDs and timestamps) must remain in cleartext for synchronization and access control.

Encryption keys required for decryption are stored locally on your devices (using your operating system’s secure storage where available). We do not provide server-side key escrow. If all devices/keys are lost, encrypted Cloud Sync content cannot be recovered.

2.3 Authentication Methods

The Software provides various authentication methods including:

a) Password-based Authentication: Users can create and use passwords to access their accounts. Passwords are securely stored using PBKDF2 with 100,000 iterations, SHA-512 hash function, and a 32-byte random salt.

b) Magic Link Authentication: Users can receive one-time login links via email that provide temporary access to their accounts. These login codes are valid for 15 minutes.

c) Passkey Authentication: For supported platforms (initially Windows; additional OS support may be added over time) users who have already registered (using password or magic link) may enable passkey login as an additional authentication method. Passkeys provide a more secure, phishing-resistant authentication option.

d) Password Reset: Users can request password reset links that are delivered via email and are valid for 24 hours.

Authentication services are provided through SendGrid, a third-party email service provider. By using these authentication methods, you acknowledge that your email address will be processed by SendGrid solely for the purpose of delivering authentication-related emails.

3. Subscription Terms

3.1 Free Trial

All registered users automatically receive a free trial that includes:

  • 50 AI requests using Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite
  • Access to basic AI-enhanced project management features
  • No expiration date – the trial requests remain available indefinitely
  • No payment information required

The free trial is provided on a one-time basis per user account. Once the 50 requests are consumed, users may either use their own API key (API Key Mode) or upgrade to the Pro subscription for continued AI access.

3.2 Pro Subscription

The following terms apply to the TensorPM Pro Subscription Service:

a) Subscription Period: The subscription period is one month, starting from the date of purchase.

b) Pricing: The subscription fee is €29 per month (including applicable VAT), payable in advance.

c) Payment Processing: Payments are processed through Stripe. By subscribing, you agree to Stripe's terms of service.

d) Automatic Renewal: Your subscription will automatically renew each month until canceled. You will be charged the subscription fee (currently €29) at the beginning of each new billing period. Stripe will send payment receipts for each renewal.

e) Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time through the Stripe customer dashboard at https://billing.stripe.com/p/login/28o6rE8vU4kFdNK288. Upon cancellation, you will retain access to the Pro features until the end of your current billing period. You will receive an email confirmation of your cancellation. The subscription will not automatically renew after cancellation. The cancellation deadline is one day before the renewal date.

f) Right of Withdrawal and Digital Content Exception:

If you are a consumer within the European Union, you generally have the right to withdraw from the subscription purchase without giving any reason within 14 days of the initial purchase. However, by activating the Pro subscription features, you:

  • Expressly consent to access digital content before the 14-day withdrawal period ends
  • Acknowledge that this access to digital content begins immediately
  • Acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once you begin using the services

To exercise the right of withdrawal (if applicable), you must inform us of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g., a letter sent by post or email). You may use the model withdrawal form provided below, but it is not obligatory.

Model Withdrawal Form:

To: Simon Schwer, Wolfringstraße 14, 90765 Fürth, Germany, info@tensorpm.com

I hereby give notice that I withdraw from my contract for the following service:
- TensorPM Pro Subscription Service
- Ordered on: [DATE]
- Name: [YOUR NAME]
- Email address: [YOUR EMAIL]
- Date: [CURRENT DATE]
- Signature: [YOUR SIGNATURE - only if in paper form]

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

If you withdraw from the contract and haven't yet begun using the Pro features, we shall reimburse all payments received from you without undue delay and not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction unless you have expressly agreed otherwise.

g) Pro Trial Period: A 14-day trial period is available for the Pro subscription (separate from the basic free trial mentioned in Section 3.1). The Pro trial includes full access to all Pro features with the same AI request limit (500 per month, prorated for the trial period). Payment information is required to start the Pro trial. After the trial period ends, your subscription will automatically begin and you will be charged the subscription fee unless you cancel before the trial ends.

We will send you an email notification at least 3 days before your Pro trial converts to a paid subscription to remind you of the upcoming charge. The trial start and end dates will be clearly displayed in your account dashboard. You may cancel at any time during the trial period without being charged.

h) Usage Limits: The subscription includes 500 AI requests per month (default, configurable and subject to change with notice). This limit is enforced server-side and tracked in real-time. The application displays your current usage. If you exceed this limit, you will need to use your own API key (BYOK) to continue using AI features until the next billing cycle or purchase additional requests if available.

i) Refund Policy: We do not offer refunds for subscription fees except in cases where our service fails to function as described. All subscriptions can be canceled at any time, but no prorated refunds will be issued for the current billing period.

j) Subscription Indicator: Your subscription status is displayed in the title bar of the Software, clearly indicating whether you are using the Pro version.

k) Price Changes: We reserve the right to change the subscription price. Any price changes will be communicated at least 30 days in advance via email. Continued use of the subscription after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new price.

l) Service Level: While we aim to maintain 99.5% uptime for our proxy server service, we cannot guarantee continuous availability. Scheduled maintenance will be announced at least 24 hours in advance. Unscheduled downtime due to technical issues or factors beyond our control may occur, and we will make reasonable efforts to restore service promptly.
