These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Makro browser extension (“Makro”, “the Extension”) operated by TechHQ USA, LLC (“we”, “us”, “our”). By installing or using Makro, you agree to these Terms.
Makro is a browser extension that provides text expansion, macro management, and productivity features. Makro is offered in three tiers:
All paid tiers (Pro and Premium) are available with a 1-month free trial as described in Section 3.6.
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Makro in accordance with these Terms. You may install Makro on your personal devices for personal or professional productivity use. You may not resell, sublicense, or otherwise provide Makro as a service to third parties without our prior written consent.
The Free tier is available at no cost and may be used indefinitely.
Paid subscriptions are managed through Polar.sh. By purchasing a subscription, you also agree to Polar.sh’s terms of service. Subscription pricing, billing cycles, and cancellation are handled through your Polar.sh account. We may change subscription pricing and plan features from time to time. Any changes to pricing will apply to future billing periods and, where required by law, we will provide advance notice before such changes take effect.
Each paid subscription includes a license key. You are responsible for keeping your license key confidential. Sharing license keys is prohibited and may result in subscription termination.
A “device” means a unique browser profile where the Extension is activated with your license key. If you reach your device limit, you will need to deactivate an existing device before activating a new one. Shared use of a single license across unrelated users or teams is not permitted.
All paid plans include a 1-month free trial, providing full access to evaluate the service before any charge. Because of this trial period, all subscription payments are non-refundable once your billing cycle begins. You may cancel your subscription at any time through your Polar.sh account to prevent future charges, but no refunds will be issued for the current or prior billing periods. Because all paid tiers include a 1-month free trial with full feature access, the purpose of the trial is to allow you to determine whether Makro meets your needs before any charges occur.
All paid tiers include a 1-month free trial. During the trial period, you have full access to the features of your selected tier. No payment is charged until the trial period ends. You may cancel at any time during the trial through your Polar.sh account without being charged. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid subscription for the selected tier, and the first billing period will begin.
You agree not to:
The AI Rewrite and Semantic Search features use third-party AI models (Google Gemini). AI-generated content may contain errors, inaccuracies, or unintended outputs. You are solely responsible for reviewing and using AI-generated content. AI-generated content is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute legal, financial, medical, or other professional advice.
Pro and Premium users receive a monthly AI rewrite quota (Pro: 100 requests/month, Premium: 10,000 requests/month). Semantic search (embeddings) is unlimited for both tiers. Quotas reset on the first day of each month. We reserve the right to adjust quotas with reasonable notice.
AI requests are subject to safety filters. Content that violates Google’s usage policies may be blocked. We are not responsible for content that is filtered or refused.
AI features (Smart Rewrite, Semantic Search) depend on third-party infrastructure and may be temporarily or permanently unavailable due to provider outages, API changes, rate limiting, or service discontinuation. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability of AI features and are not liable for any loss or inconvenience resulting from their unavailability.
Cloud sync uses end-to-end encryption (AES-256-GCM). We cannot read your synced macro content.
While your macros are encrypted both locally and in the cloud, Makro is not a password manager or secrets vault. Anyone with access to your browser or your device can open the extension, trigger your hotwords, and view your macro content in plaintext. Do not store passwords, API keys, authentication tokens, financial credentials, or other sensitive secrets in your macros. We are not responsible for unauthorized access to sensitive information stored in macros.
Cloud sync is provided as a convenience feature and is not intended as a primary data store or backup solution. While we take reasonable precautions to protect synced data, we are not liable for any data loss, corruption, or synchronization errors, whether caused by software bugs, server outages, encryption key changes, device changes, or any other reason. You are solely responsible for maintaining local backups of your macros using the Extension’s export feature. We strongly recommend exporting your macros regularly. If Makro or its cloud services are discontinued, we will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice so that you can export your macros. However, we do not guarantee that synced data will remain accessible after discontinuation.
Cloud sync and all server-dependent features are provided on an “as available” basis. We do not guarantee any specific level of uptime, availability, or performance. Service may be interrupted, degraded, or discontinued at any time due to maintenance, infrastructure issues, third-party provider outages, or business decisions. We are not liable for any loss, damage, or inconvenience resulting from service interruptions or discontinuation.
Makro, including its code, design, and branding, is the intellectual property of TechHQ USA, LLC. All rights reserved.
You retain full ownership of your macros, text, and other content. We claim no rights to your content. Your synced data is encrypted and inaccessible to us.
Your use of Makro is also governed by our Privacy Policy. By using Makro, you consent to the data practices described therein.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TECHHQ USA, LLC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF MAKRO.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR:
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IN THE 3 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
MAKRO IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE EXTENSION WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT ANY DATA STORED OR TRANSMITTED THROUGH THE EXTENSION WILL BE PRESERVED, ACCURATE, OR RECOVERABLE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT AI FEATURES WILL PRODUCE ACCURATE, APPROPRIATE, OR USEFUL RESULTS.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU USE MAKRO AT YOUR OWN RISK AND THAT YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING BACKUPS OF YOUR DATA.
You may stop using Makro at any time by uninstalling the Extension. You may cancel your paid subscription through your Polar.sh account.
We may suspend or terminate your access to paid features if you violate these Terms, including but not limited to sharing license keys or abusing API rate limits. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you before termination.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by updating the “Last Updated” date and, where appropriate, via in-product notice or email. Continued use of Makro after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
