Terms of Service
These terms are the rules for using Passyble: the Passyble apps for Windows and Android, the Passyble browser extension, the Passyble Server software and this website, passyble.com. We have kept them short and plain. How Passyble handles your data is in the Privacy policy.
Summary
- Passyble is free and open source. No account, no subscription, no ads.
- Your vault is yours, and so is its key. Keep your master password and recovery code safe and keep backups: we can't reset your password or recover your vault.
- Services you connect have their own terms. Google Drive, a WebDAV server, an e-mail alias service or a Passyble Server someone else runs are between you and them.
- Provided as is. We work hard to make Passyble reliable and secure, but we can't promise it is free of bugs.
1. Who we are
Passyble is made by Sensyble ("Sensyble", "we", "us"), www.sensyble.net.
Postal address: Maru - 20, KMC, Kathmandu 44600, Nepal
E-mail: [email protected]
2. What these terms cover
Passyble is a password manager. It keeps your logins, passwords, 2FA codes, passkeys, notes, cards and addresses in a vault that is encrypted on your device with your master password, and fills them in for you. These terms apply when you download, install or use:
- Passyble for Windows and Passyble for Android;
- the Passyble browser extension, which works together with Passyble for Windows;
- Passyble Server, software you or someone you trust can run to sync vaults;
- this website, including the password generator and username generator.
By using Passyble you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use it. You need to be old enough to agree to terms like these where you live, or have a parent's or guardian's permission.
3. Free to use
The Passyble apps, the extension, Passyble Server and this website are free to use, with every feature included, for personal use and at work. There is no Sensyble account to create. If we ever offer paid services, they will have their own terms, which we will show you before you buy anything; they won't change what the free apps include.
4. Open source license
Passyble is open source software, licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3 or later (AGPL-3.0-or-later). The source code is coming to GitHub, and the full license text will be published with it. The license gives you the right to use, study, change and share the software. For the software itself, those rights come from the license, and nothing in these terms takes them away.
The license covers the code. It doesn't let you use the Passyble or Sensyble names or logos in a way that suggests a changed version, or a service you run, comes from us. A summary of what the license means for you is on the Features page.
5. Your vault, your responsibility
Passyble is built so that only you can open your vault. That protects you, and it also means some things are up to you:
- Keep your master password. We never have it, so we can't reset it or tell it to you.
- Make a recovery code and keep it safe. It is the only way back in if you forget your master password. Print it or keep it somewhere offline. See what to do if you forget your master password.
- Keep backups. Sync to a second device or storage, or make an encrypted export now and then. A lost, damaged or deleted vault file can't be recovered by us.
- Keep your devices safe. Use a screen lock, keep your system and Passyble up to date, and protect the accounts you use for sync.
- Handle exports with care. Unencrypted exports contain your passwords in plain text. Delete them when you are done.
Because Sensyble never has your master password or your vault, we can't recover your data in any situation, including if you lose your devices or forget your password.
6. Services you connect
Some features work with services that Sensyble does not run. When you use them, your use of that service is governed by its own terms and privacy policy, and Sensyble is not responsible for it. These include:
- Sync and storage: Google Drive, a WebDAV server (such as Nextcloud), or a folder synced by OneDrive, Dropbox or Syncthing.
- Passyble Server run by you, your employer or someone else. Whoever runs a server is responsible for it, for keeping it available and for the accounts and backups on it. If you run one for other people, you are responsible for running it properly and lawfully.
- E-mail alias services: SimpleLogin, addy.io, Firefox Relay, DuckDuckGo Email Protection, Fastmail or Forward Email, with your own account there.
- Other services Passyble may contact: GitHub for Windows updates, Have I Been Pwned for the breach check you start, and the websites whose icons Passyble shows.
- App stores: Google Play and browser extension stores have their own terms for downloads.
What each of these receives is listed in the Privacy policy. Services can change or stop working with Passyble at any time, and we can't guarantee they will keep working.
7. Acceptable use
Use Passyble lawfully and fairly. In particular, please don't:
- use it to get into accounts, systems or data you are not allowed to access;
- attack, overload or try to break into this website, or someone else's Passyble Server;
- pass off a changed version of Passyble, or a service you run, as made or approved by Sensyble;
- use Passyble in a way that breaks the law or other people's rights.
Security research is welcome. If you find a security problem, please tell us first at [email protected], with steps to reproduce, and give us time to fix it before telling anyone else. Don't use real people's data when testing.
8. No warranty
Passyble is provided "as is" and "as available", without any warranty, to the extent the law allows. We don't promise that it will be free of bugs or security problems, that it will work with every website, app, device or service, or that it will meet your needs. Passyble has not yet had an independent security audit. The open source license says the same for the software.
If you rely on Passyble for something important, keep a backup and a way back in (your recovery code) outside Passyble.
9. Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, Sensyble is not liable for any loss or damage that comes from using or not being able to use Passyble, including lost data, a lost or forgotten master password, being locked out of an account, a problem with a service you connected, or indirect or consequential losses. Passyble is free, and we can't take responsibility for what is stored in it.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law doesn't allow us to limit, such as for harm we cause on purpose or through gross negligence, and nothing in these terms takes away rights you have as a consumer under the law where you live.
10. Availability and changes to Passyble
We keep improving Passyble, so features can be added, changed or removed. Updates for Windows are offered in the app (you can turn off the automatic check), and Android updates come through Google Play. We may stop offering a version, a platform or downloads altogether.
Because your vault lives on your devices and in storage you chose, Passyble doesn't depend on a Sensyble server: the apps keep working even if this website is down. We try to keep the website available but can't promise it always will be.
11. Stopping using Passyble
You can stop using Passyble at any time. There is no account to close with us. To remove your data, follow Delete your data; before you do, export anything you want to keep.
If you break these terms, for example by attacking this website, we may block your access to the website. Your rights to the software under the open source license continue as that license describes.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Nepal. Disputes go to the courts of Kathmandu, Nepal. If you use Passyble as a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you can bring a claim in your local courts where that law allows it.
If one part of these terms turns out not to be valid, the rest still applies.
13. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms, for example when Passyble gets new features. We will change the "Last updated" date at the top, and for changes that matter to you we will also say so on this website or in the release notes. If you keep using Passyble after a change, the new terms apply. If you don't agree with them, you can stop using Passyble at any time.
