Effective date: July 23, 2026 · Last updated: October 7, 2026
These Terms govern your use of the Blakcat apps and service ("Blakcat"). By
creating an account or using Blakcat, you agree to these Terms. If you do not
agree, do not use the service.
The service
Blakcat provides an encrypted network connection that protects and optimizes
your traffic on untrusted networks. Features, servers, and availability may change
over time as we improve the service.
Your account
You must provide a valid email address and keep your credentials secure.
You are responsible for activity under your account.
Each account is subject to a device limit; you may manage your devices in the app.
You must be at least 16 years old to use Blakcat.
Acceptable use
You agree not to use Blakcat to:
break the law or infringe others' rights;
send spam, malware, or conduct network attacks;
attempt to disrupt, reverse-engineer, or gain unauthorized access to the service or its infrastructure;
resell or redistribute the service without our permission.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or that put the
service or other users at risk.
Subscriptions & payments
Where paid plans are offered, they are billed through the applicable platform's
billing system or our payment provider, and are subject to that provider's terms.
The iOS version of Blakcat does not offer in-app purchases or third-party payment.
Renewing the plan you already have adds to the time you have left. If you buy a
different paid plan while your current one is still active, the time remaining on it
is converted and placed ahead of the time you buy: remaining Plus time counts at half
its length toward Premium, and remaining Premium time at twice its length toward Plus.
Dedicated Servers
Premium includes the option of a Dedicated Server: a server and exit IP address
used by your account alone.
Dedicated Servers are offered in a limited number of regions and places. They are
set up by hand, usually within 24 hours of your request; if we cannot set one up in
the region you chose, we will tell you and you may choose another.
A Dedicated Server lasts as long as your Premium plan. If the plan ends, the server
is paused; renewing Premium within 7 days brings it back on the same IP address. After
7 days paused it is released, together with its IP address, and nothing of it is kept.
Peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing is permitted on Dedicated Servers only, and only for
content you have the right to share.
Because its exit IP address is used by your account alone, a complaint we receive
about traffic from that address — such as a copyright or abuse notice from a network
provider — concerns your account. We may pause a Dedicated Server when we receive such
a notice, and may terminate it, without refund for the remaining Dedicated Server time,
for repeated or serious violations.
Privacy
Your use of Blakcat is also governed by our
Privacy Policy.
Disclaimer & limitation of liability
Blakcat is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind. We do not
guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service. To the maximum extent permitted by
law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising
from your use of the service.
Changes
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be
communicated in the app or by email. Continued use after changes take effect
constitutes acceptance.
