SCAT SOUNDS / TERMS
Plain terms.
Fair to both of us.
Effective November 8, 2026. We update this date whenever these terms change.
Who we are.
These terms cover scatsounds.com and the SCAT Sauce downloads, activation and support sold through it. They are operated by SCAT Sounds LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“SCAT Sounds”, “we”). By creating an account, buying or downloading, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Your account.
You need an account to buy and to download. Use accurate details, keep your sign-in secure, and tell us if you think someone else has access. You are responsible for what happens under your account. You must be at least 13, or older if your local law requires it.
What a purchase includes.
A one-time payment gives your account access to the SCAT Sauce installers for the platforms offered at the time (Windows now; Mac AU and VST3 are in beta) and to future updates, as described on the product page when you buy. There is no subscription.
Activation and your computers.
SCAT Sauce activates against your account on up to two computers at a time. Signed activations work offline for up to 30 days. You can remove a computer from your account to free its slot. Please do not share, resell or publish your account or activation credentials.
The software license.
The SCAT Sauce software is licensed to you under the GNU General Public License, version 3 only. Nothing in these terms limits the rights that license gives you in the software or its source code. These terms cover the website, your account, the activation service, downloads and support.
Payments and refunds.
Payments are processed by Stripe, and the price is shown before you pay. Every purchase has a 14-day refund: email us within 14 days of purchase and we will refund you, no questions asked, and your license is deactivated when a refund is issued. If something goes wrong, such as a duplicate charge or a download that does not arrive, contact us and we will put it right. Your legal rights as a consumer are not affected. See the purchase policy.
Acceptable use.
Do not misuse the site or the activation service: no attacks, scraping, attempts to bypass limits or security, or use of another person’s account. We may suspend access that puts the service or other customers at risk.
Support.
We provide support by email at jake@scatsounds.com and will make reasonable efforts to help, but we cannot promise response times or that every host, system or setup will work. We may improve, change or retire features over time, and will give notice where practical.
Warranty and liability.
To the extent the law allows, the site and services are provided “as is”, and the software is supplied without warranty as described in GPLv3 sections 15 to 17. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost profits, or lost data or projects, and our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the product in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law. Always keep backups of your projects and listen to the result in your DAW.
Changes.
We may update these terms. The version on this page applies from its effective date. If a change is significant, we will tell you on the site or by email.
Governing law.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, USA, and disputes will be heard in the state or federal courts in Michigan, except where your local consumer law gives you the right to use the courts where you live.
