The fine print
Last updated: July 18, 2026 · Ampere is published by az code lab.
Privacy
Ampere is built to know your battery, not you.
- The app collects no analytics and no telemetry. Your battery data never leaves your Mac.
- Registration sends your email address, license key, and your Mac’s device serial to our license server, and re-verifies (email + serial + app version) about once a day. That’s the entire exchange. Our server keeps a log of these verification requests — the time, the IP address the request came from, the device serial, and the app version — for fraud prevention and support. The log is visible only to us, is never shared, and isn’t used for anything else; a deletion request covers it too.
- Purchases are processed by Stripe or PayPal, whichever you choose at checkout. We receive your email address and order details — never your card number or PayPal credentials. The payment provider’s own privacy policy applies on its checkout pages.
- This website sets no cookies and runs no trackers or third-party analytics.
- Update checks query the public Homebrew cask and GitHub releases; no personal data is attached.
Questions or deletion requests: open a ticket at azcode.dev and we’ll take care of it.
License terms
- A license key permits one registered Mac at a time per key. You can move a key to another Mac whenever you like — deregister first, or simply register on the new machine with the same email.
- Keys are bound to the purchase email and are for use by you (or your team, for multi-key purchases). Please don’t resell or publish them; revoked keys stop verifying.
- Updates are delivered free through the app and Homebrew.
- Ampere’s source code is available under the MIT license; the license key covers registration of official builds.
- The software is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind. Ampere controls charging through Apple’s SMC and is designed to restore system defaults when it exits, but you use low-level features at your own discretion.
Refunds
If Ampere isn’t for you, tell us within 14 days of purchase and we’ll refund you in full — no questions asked. Open a ticket at azcode.dev (sign in with your purchase email — a login link is sent to you, no password needed). Refunded keys are deactivated.
