Terms of Service

Nexa Dir · Effective 2026-08-02 · Last updated 2026-10-12

These Terms of Service govern the rights, obligations, and responsibilities between SosomLab (“we”, “us”, or “the Company”) and you in connection with your use of Nexa Dir (the “Software”).

1. Definitions

  1. “Software” means the Nexa Dir application distributed by the Company, including both editions below and the portable executable, installer, and package-manager distributions of each.
    • “Current edition”: the cross-platform edition, v0.23.0 and later (Windows, macOS, Linux)
    • “Windows-only edition”: the Windows edition, v0.22.0 and earlier
  2. “User” means anyone who downloads, installs, or uses the Software.
  3. “Cloud Provider” means a third-party storage service that the User may connect to the Windows-only edition of the Software, such as Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive, or Dropbox.

These Terms apply to both editions. However, the provisions concerning Cloud Providers (Section 5, item 3; Section 6, item 2; and Section 7) apply only to the Windows-only edition.

2. Acceptance and Amendment

  1. These Terms take effect when you download, install, or use the Software.
  2. The Company may amend these Terms within the limits permitted by applicable law. Amendments will be posted on this page with their effective date, and material changes will be announced at least 7 days in advance. Continuing to use the Software after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

3. License

  1. The Software (both editions) is licensed under PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0. Personal and other noncommercial use is free of charge.
  2. Commercial use requires a separate paid license. For inquiries, contact [email protected].
  3. The full license text is published in the Software’s source repository, and it governs in the event of any conflict with this Section.
  4. The Software is licensed, not sold. All copyright and other intellectual property rights remain with the Company.
  5. For the current edition, a license is issued after the User emails the Company a request code generated in the Software, and the issued license file is verified offline on the User’s device. The price, term, and other conditions of a paid license are agreed separately between the Company and the User at the time of issue.

4. Nature of the Software

  1. The Software runs locally on the User’s device (Windows, macOS, or Linux). The Company operates no server for it and provides no account, hosting, or storage service.
  2. The current edition makes no network connection, and the Software collects no personal information. For details, including how information that the User sends to the Company to request a license is handled, see the Privacy Policy.
  3. Because the Software is not an online service, the Company gives no undertaking as to availability or uptime.

5. User Responsibilities

Users must not:

  1. Use the Software commercially without a valid paid license;
  2. Use the Software to access, alter, or delete data they are not authorized to handle;
  3. (Windows-only edition) Circumvent the usage limits, rate limits, or terms of any Cloud Provider, or use the Software’s bundled OAuth client identifiers abusively;
  4. Do anything otherwise prohibited by applicable law or these Terms.

6. File Operations and Data Loss

  1. The Software performs destructive operations, including delete, move, overwrite, and bulk rename. The User is solely responsible for verifying targets before executing them and for maintaining backups.
  2. Undo (Ctrl+Z on Windows and Linux, Cmd+Z on macOS) applies only to local file operations performed by the Software, and the Company does not guarantee that every operation can be undone. In particular, in the Windows-only edition Undo does not apply to operations performed on a Cloud Provider. Items deleted from cloud storage must be recovered from that provider’s own trash or version history.
  3. The Company is not liable for loss of, or damage to, data resulting from the User’s operation of the Software, except to the extent such liability cannot be excluded by law.

7. Cloud Connection (Windows-only Edition)

This Section applies only to the Windows-only edition (v0.22.0 and earlier). The current edition (v0.23.0 and later) has no cloud connection feature.

  1. Connecting a Cloud Provider is optional and is initiated by the User.
  2. Access to a Cloud Provider is governed by that provider’s own terms of service and privacy policy. The Company is not a party to that relationship and is not responsible for the provider’s service, availability, pricing, or policy changes.
  3. The Software ships with default OAuth client identifiers as a convenience. These are shared among all users, so a provider may apply rate limits, connection caps, periodic re-authentication, or organizational consent restrictions. The Company does not guarantee that the Connect feature will remain available for any given provider or account type. Users may register and configure their own client identifiers instead.
  4. Where direct connection is unavailable, the Link feature — which overlays an existing sync folder — remains usable.

8. Third-Party Components

The Software runs on components provided by the operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux) and may interoperate with third-party software such as default apps, shell extensions, terminals, and git. Open-source components included in the Software, and such third-party software, are governed by their own licenses and terms.

9. Disclaimer of Warranty

The Software is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including without limitation any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. The Company does not warrant that the Software will be uninterrupted, error-free, or compatible with any particular hardware, operating system version, distribution, or system configuration.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profit, or business, arising out of the use of or inability to use the Software. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law, including liability for willful misconduct or gross negligence.

11. Term and Suspension of Distribution

The Company may modify, suspend, or discontinue distribution of the Software, or any of its features, at any time. Copies already installed remain usable under these Terms. The Windows-only edition is no longer updated after v0.22.0; subsequent updates are provided as the current edition, which does not include some features of the Windows-only edition (such as cloud connection).

12. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Korea. Any dispute arising in connection with the Software is subject to the court having jurisdiction under the Civil Procedure Act of the Republic of Korea.
