This agreement is accepted in-app on first launch. By installing IKANDY and clicking “I Accept”, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, click “Decline” and do not install the Software.
01
Grant of License
L&R Entertainment LLC ("Company", "we", "us") grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and run IKANDY ("the Software") on Windows computers that you own or control, for use with the Steam account that holds the purchase. There is no fixed install limit: install on as many of your own machines as you like. Concurrent use follows Steam's account model, which permits one active session per account at a time. The features available to you correspond to the tier you purchased.
Using the Software to perform, stream, or record, including commercially, is expressly permitted; see Performance and Output Rights below. This license does not include the right to:
- Sublicense, sell, resell, rent, or redistribute the Software itself, or bundle it into another product or service offered to others
- Extract, copy, or repackage the Software's included scenes, presets, shaders, images, or other bundled assets for use outside the Software
- Circumvent, disable, or interfere with ownership verification or tier checks
- Remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or proprietary notices
Steam
Steam Distribution
Retail builds of IKANDY are sold and delivered through Steam. Your purchase is governed by the Steam Subscriber Agreement, and refunds are handled under Valve's refund policy. A Steam account is required to install and run retail builds. IKANDY uses the local Steam client to confirm ownership and unlock the tier you purchased; see the Privacy Policy for the data we process.
Local playback and online features. Core visual playback runs locally. Steam may require a connection for installation, updates, sign-in, or account services, and optional features such as provider-based AI, online metadata, and diagnostics require an internet connection.
02
Pre-release Builds
This section applies to pre-release (beta) builds.
PRE-RELEASE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED FOR EVALUATION. It may contain bugs and may change before final release. Features may be added, modified, or removed before release.
By accepting this agreement you acknowledge that:
- Beta software may crash, produce incorrect results, or lose data
- Features available during beta may not be available in the final release, or may require a paid license upgrade
- We may terminate beta access at any time for any reason
03
Intellectual Property
IKANDY's original code, graphics, user interface design, audio-reactive scenes, shader programs, and documentation are owned by L&R Entertainment LLC and protected by copyright law and international treaties. Third-party components and content remain subject to their respective licenses and notices, listed at ikandy.app/credits.html.
You may not:
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software except to the extent permitted by applicable law
- Copy or reproduce the Software except as permitted by this Agreement
- Create derivative works based on the Software without written consent
This end-user license governs your use of the compiled application.
Outputs
Performance & Output Rights
Subject to applicable third-party notices and licenses, you may display, perform, stream, record, and publish visual output you create with the Software, including for commercial performances, installations, streams, and video productions. IKANDY does not charge a separate royalty for that use. This permission does not transfer ownership of the Software or its bundled assets and does not grant use of the IKANDY name or logo as an endorsement.
Your Content
Your Content
To the extent you own the rights, scenes, shaders, images, lyrics files, and other content you create or import into the Software remain yours. We claim no ownership of your content. Features that share content act only when you invoke them, and sharing is governed by the terms of the destination you choose (for example, Steam Workshop is governed by Valve's terms).
04
Data Collection & Privacy
By using the Software, you acknowledge receipt of our Privacy Policy. Key points:
- Pre-release builds may use limited validation data to administer beta access
- Usage telemetry and crash reports are optional and off by default; you may enable either separately in Settings → Privacy
- We do not collect your music, audio content, or personal files
- You may request deletion of applicable server-side data from Settings → Privacy
Optional crash diagnostics and app usage analytics are controlled separately from this License Agreement. App usage analytics can include feature events, session information, and a coarse region derived from your connection, associated with a random install ID rather than a Steam account identifier. Crash reports are sanitized on your device before transmission. Consent-based website analytics use a separate choice on ikandy.app. The full detail is in the Privacy Policy, which controls if these documents describe data practices differently.
05
Third-Party Services
The Software integrates with optional third-party services including Spotify, MusicBee through MBXHub, foobar2000 through Beefweb, VLC, and LRCLIB. Use of these services is governed by their respective terms of service. Product names are used only to identify compatible services; we are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or responsible for those third parties.
Spotify integration uses a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) model. You are responsible for compliance with Spotify’s Developer Terms of Service when registering and using your own Spotify application credentials.
06
Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, L&R ENTERTAINMENT LLC EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE ERROR-FREE, UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
07
Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL L&R ENTERTAINMENT LLC, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE.
OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED FIFTY DOLLARS (USD $50.00).
08
Termination
This Agreement is effective until terminated. Your rights terminate automatically if you fail to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination, you must cease all use of the Software and delete all copies in your possession.
We may modify the Software and may end pre-release programs at any time. We will provide notice of material agreement changes as described in the Privacy Policy or where required by law.
09
Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
Any dispute shall first be submitted to informal resolution by contacting support@ikandy.app. If informal resolution fails, disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration in Los Angeles County, California, under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.
10
General Provisions
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy, constitutes the entire agreement between you and L&R Entertainment LLC regarding the Software.
Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force.
No Waiver. Failure to enforce any provision shall not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce it in the future.
Updates. We may update this Agreement. We will provide notice of material changes and request any acceptance required by applicable law before those changes govern your continued use.
