Ortix browser is offered as a subscription service with device-based authentication. There are no license keys or manual activation codes—your subscription is automatically linked to your device through a secure hardware-based identifier.
Polar.sh Payment Processing: All payment transactions, subscription management, and billing for Ortix are processed through Polar.sh, a third-party payment platform. We do not directly collect or store your payment card information, billing address, or other sensitive payment details. By purchasing or subscribing to Ortix, you agree to Polar.sh's terms of service and privacy policy. For more information, visit polar.sh.
Device-Based Authentication: When you subscribe to Ortix, your subscription is linked to your device using a hardware-based device identifier derived from your Mac's hardware UUID and serial number. This device identifier is generated locally on your device and used to verify your subscription status with Polar.sh. No manual license activation is required—Ortix automatically verifies your subscription when you launch the app.
Device Limits: Each Ortix subscription permits use on a limited number of devices as specified at the time of purchase. Device authorization is managed automatically through Polar.sh's Customer State API. You can manage your devices and subscription through the Ortix customer portal accessible within the app.
Subscription Verification: Ortix periodically connects to Polar.sh to verify your subscription status. This verification sends your device identifier, platform information (macOS), and app version to Polar.sh's API. This is necessary to validate your subscription and provide access to Ortix features. These checks do not monitor your browsing activity or collect personal browsing data.
Trials and Refunds: Free trials may be available for new subscribers. Trial eligibility is determined per device. Refund policies for Ortix subscriptions are subject to Polar.sh's refund terms. We reserve the right, in coordination with Polar.sh, to refuse, limit, or terminate access where we reasonably believe there is misuse, fraud, or a violation of these Terms.
Software Updates: Ortix may periodically check for updates by contacting our servers and sending minimal technical information (such as current version, build number, platform, and operating system version). These update checks are separate from subscription verification and are used solely to determine whether an update is available.
Your use of Ortix is subject to any additional terms presented in the Ortix app or purchase flow. If there is a conflict between these Terms and Polar.sh's terms, Polar.sh's terms will govern payment and subscription matters, while these Terms govern your use of the Ortix browser software.
