Terms of sale

Version of 14/11/2026 (English courtesy translation; the French version prevails)

Text to be validated by a lawyer before sales open. Passages marked “to be completed” depend on information not yet settled. This page is not indexed.

1. Seller

HABEAS CORPUS, a French simplified joint-stock company (trademark: Habeas Corpus Consulting), share capital €2,000, 5 route du Bosc André, 27230 Saint-Germain-la-Campagne, France, RCS Bernay 898 734 231, EU VAT number FR17898734231. Contact: contact@sinenomine.app, +33 1 89 16 73 22 (see the legal notice). Hereinafter “the publisher”.

2. Scope

These terms govern every online sale of a Sine Nomine software licence on this site between the publisher and a customer, whether a consumer or a business. The customer accepts them before paying. Sales are reserved for customers in the European Union.

3. Product

A licence to use Sine Nomine, software for Windows 10 or 11 that pseudonymises or anonymises documents on the user's computer. The licence is valid for one computer only, with no time limit, and is non-transferable: any change of computer requires the purchase of a new licence. All future versions of Sine Nomine are included at no extra cost, including major versions. The publisher makes no commitment as to a development period or compatibility with every future operating system. The terms of use are here.

4. Price and taxes

€49 including VAT for individuals (the VAT of the customer's country is included). €99 excluding VAT for businesses: French VAT of 20% (€118.80 including VAT) if the customer is established in France; for a business established in another EU Member State that provides a valid intra-community VAT number at the time of payment, the invoice is issued without VAT (reverse charge). The price is the one displayed when the order is placed; it is paid in euros, in a single payment. No subscription is taken out.

5. Order and payment

The customer chooses a profile (individual or business), ticks the required boxes, then is redirected to the secure payment page of Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. (Ireland). The publisher neither receives nor stores card numbers. The contract is concluded when the payment is confirmed and verified by the publisher's server. An invoice is issued. Payment in bitcoin is not available at present. An order paid from a country outside the European Union does not trigger automatic delivery: the publisher contacts the customer and, failing agreement, refunds the order.

6. Delivery and installation

Once the payment has been verified, the access key (the licence) is sent by email to the address entered at payment. The customer downloads Sine Nomine from the Download page and enters the key during installation, with an Internet connection. This activation uses the key's single activation; it is not returned automatically (a reinstallation on another computer, or after a change of computer, requires a new licence unless the publisher grants an exception). After that, Sine Nomine works offline. One order results in one key delivery only.

Each licence is intended for one computer only. A company that wishes to equip several computers buys one licence per computer: each purchase gives rise to a separate order, invoice and key.

7. Right of withdrawal

Consumers. A consumer normally has 14 days to withdraw from a distance contract. However, this right cannot be exercised for the supply of digital content not supplied on a tangible medium where performance has begun with the consumer's prior express consent and express acknowledgement that they lose their right of withdrawal. Before paying, the consumer requests immediate access to the software as soon as their payment is confirmed and acknowledges that they lose their right of withdrawal once it is supplied, by ticking the box provided; a reminder is sent with the key. Businesses. No right of withdrawal applies.

8. Legal guarantees

The publisher is liable towards consumers under the legal guarantee of conformity applicable to digital content, and towards all customers under the guarantee against hidden defects (articles 1641 et seq. of the French Civil Code), as provided by law. Sine Nomine is an aid whose detection is not 100% reliable (see the terms of use); this information does not limit a consumer's legal rights.

9. Support

Support is not included in the licence. It is subject to separate terms: support, contact us (contact@sinenomine.app). No price is published.

10. Liability

To the extent permitted by law, the publisher's liability is limited as set out in the terms of use. This limitation does not apply in cases of gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or where the law prohibits excluding it, in particular towards consumers.

11. Personal data

Order data is processed as described in the privacy policy.

12. Consumer mediation

A consumer may use a consumer mediator free of charge after first trying to resolve the dispute directly with the publisher: [à compléter : consumer mediator: name, postal address and website]

13. Governing law and disputes

French law applies, without depriving the consumer of the protection afforded by the mandatory provisions of the law of their country of residence. Subject to mandatory rules on jurisdiction, in particular in favour of consumers, the courts of Paris have jurisdiction.

14. Applicable version

The version in force on the date of the order applies.
