Your data is stored locally on your own device. The application is designed to give users full control over their information without relying on centralized storage.

The software currently operates without:

  • user accounts;
  • user registration;
  • subscriptions;
  • payments;
  • built-in cloud storage;
  • AI services;
  • server-side processing of user content.

Developer means the individual developer responsible for creating and maintaining OwnSpace.

OwnSpace is currently developed and distributed by an individual developer and not by a legal entity.

3. License

OwnSpace grants you a non-exclusive, revocable license to use the software for personal or commercial purposes, subject to these Terms.

You may not:

  • reverse engineer the software where prohibited by law;
