Terms of Use
Last updated 13 November 2026
These terms cover the Anchor Mac app, the Anchor browser extension and this website. They’re written to be read. By installing or using Anchor you agree to them; if you don’t, please don’t use it.
1. Who we are
Anchor is made by Adam Beeson, trading as AEHB Studio, postal address — to confirm, Spain, tax ID NIF/NIE — to confirm. Contact: hello@aehbstudio.com.
2. Your licence to use Anchor
We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and use Anchor on Macs you own or control, for personal or work use. You may not resell, sublicense or redistribute it, remove its copyright notices, or circumvent its licence checks. Anchor is licensed, not sold: we keep all rights in the software, its name and its design.
Your bookmarks and everything else you put into Anchor are yours. We claim no rights over them and, because they stay on your Mac, never see them.
3. Early access
Anchor is currently free during early access. Early-access software is still being improved: features may change, and it may have bugs. We plan to introduce a paid subscription later. If we do, we’ll tell you in the app and on this website well before anything changes, you’ll be able to keep using the free version you have, and the bookmarks you’ve saved will always remain readable and exportable.
4. Subscriptions and payment
When paid plans are introduced, these terms will apply to them. A subscription costs £19 a year (local taxes may be added at checkout) and renews automatically each year until you cancel. Our reseller, Paddle.com, is the merchant of record for all orders: Paddle handles payment, invoicing, tax and refunds under its buyer terms, which also apply to your purchase.
- Cancelling. Cancel any time from the link in your Paddle receipt or from Settings → Licence → Manage Subscription. You keep saving until the end of the year you’ve paid for; nothing renews after that.
- When a subscription ends. Saving new bookmarks stops. Searching, opening, editing and exporting what you already have keeps working, permanently.
- Price changes. We’ll tell you at least 30 days before a new price applies to your renewal, so you can cancel first if you prefer.
5. Refunds
If Anchor isn’t for you, ask for a refund within 14 days of any charge — first purchase or renewal — and you’ll get it back, no questions asked. Email hello@aehbstudio.com or reply to your Paddle receipt. This is in addition to any rights you have under consumer law where you live.
6. Updates
Anchor checks for updates and offers to install them. Updates may add, change or remove features. We aim to support the two most recent major versions of macOS; older systems may stop receiving updates.
7. Acceptable use
Don’t use Anchor to break the law, to attack or overload websites (the link checker is deliberately gentle — please don’t modify it to be otherwise), or to reverse-engineer it except where the law allows you to.
8. Your data and backups
Your library is stored only on your Mac, so keeping it safe is in your hands. We recommend Time Machine or another backup. We can’t recover a library that has been deleted or lost with your Mac.
9. Warranty
We build Anchor carefully, but software has bugs. To the extent the law allows, Anchor is provided “as is”, without guarantees that it will be error-free or uninterrupted. If you are a consumer, this doesn’t affect your statutory rights — including, in the EU and UK, your right to digital content that conforms to its description.
10. Liability
We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, such as lost profits or lost data, and our total liability to you for anything relating to Anchor is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim (which during free early access is nothing). Nothing in these terms limits liability that can’t be limited by law, such as for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
11. Ending these terms
You can stop at any time by uninstalling Anchor. We may end your licence if you seriously break these terms; if we do, you can still export what you’ve saved.
12. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as Anchor changes. We’ll change the date at the top, and tell you in the app or by email before any change that affects you materially takes effect.
13. Law and disputes
These terms are governed by the law of Spain. If you’re a consumer you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country you live in, and can bring a claim in your local courts. Please email us first — most problems are solved faster that way.
