PicPrep terms of use
English translation of the Japanese terms. Policy version: 2026-10-29-paid-v1. Effective October 29, 2026.
1. Application
NISHIKI LLC licenses PicPrep under these terms. Read them together with the sales page and sales disclosure displayed at purchase.
2. License
The free edition allows up to five images per save. Loading, editing, previewing, the number of saves and trial days are not limited.
A paid license is a non-exclusive right to use the purchased PicPrep v1.x. Personal allows one PC activated at a time; Multi allows three. A paid license removes the product’s per-save image limit, but does not guarantee performance beyond your PC’s capabilities.
Paid licenses are one-time purchases without automatic renewal or recurring billing. Future major versions (v2+), Mac editions and other services are not included. v1.x fixes and minor updates are included; support for all future operating systems or perpetual operation of the activation service is not promised.
Both paid plans permit personal and business use. Multi may be used by the purchaser or within the purchasing company, with a total of three activated PCs. Sharing with other companies or third parties is not included.
3. Activation and changing PCs
Activation, deactivation and periodic checks use the internet. A new check is normally scheduled about seven days after a successful online check. When a connection is unavailable, valid cached licensing allows a grace period of up to 45 days from the last successful check. After that, the app returns to Free; a successful online check restores paid status.
Damaged licensing data, an abnormal PC clock or a revoked license may require online verification even within the grace period. Indefinite fully offline use is not available.
Deactivate the old PC before moving. If you cannot, follow the license management guidance or contact support. Reinstalling the operating system may cause a PC to be recognized as a different device.
4. Key management and prohibited acts
Keep your license key secure. Publishing, reselling or improperly sharing it, or bypassing device limits and security measures, is prohibited. This does not prohibit acts permitted by law.
You are responsible for ensuring you have rights to process your images and other materials. Back up originals and check exported files.
5. Purchases and refunds
Prices, payment methods, delivery and refunds follow the sales disclosure. Stop using the refunded license’s paid features after a refund.
6. Data and external services
Image processing takes place on your PC. Information related to activation, payment, license notifications and inquiries is handled under the privacy policy.
7. Issues and responsibility
We investigate reported issues and provide fixes or workarounds within reasonable limits. Operation in every environment, compression ratios and uninterrupted or error-free operation are not guaranteed. Nothing here excludes liability imposed by law.
8. Suspension and changes
We may suspend licenses when misuse is confirmed. Where this affects a legitimate purchaser, we provide an opportunity for fact checking and inquiries.
We will consider applicable conditions and notice when making material changes. A change in selling price alone does not reduce existing purchasers’ rights.
9. Contact and governing law
Contact NISHIKI LLC. Japanese law applies; disputes are resolved in accordance with applicable law.
