+1.	Preamble
+
+The AppHouseKitchenOG, owner: David Wernhart and Matthias Kerbl, located in Obersdorfer Straße 31/5/11, 2120 Wolkerdorf, Austria (hereinafter referred to as "COMPANY") offers the “All-In-One charge limiter app for MacBooks” “AlDente”.
+
+The licence agreement regulates the use of the software "AlDente" (hereinafter referred to as "SOFTWARE") for free if the evaluation license has been selected.
+
+This licence agreement is addressed to persons who wish to use the services for professional purposes, i.e. entrepreneurs in the sense of section 1 Abs 1 Z 1 KSchG („Austrian Customer Protection Act“) but also private customers (consumers in the sense of section 1 Abs Z 2 KSchG) (both together hereinafter referred to as "USER").
+
+For the purpose of better readability, no gender-specific differentiation is made. This is done without any intention of discrimination. All genders are equally addressed.
+
+2.	Scope of application
+
+This Evaluation Licence Agreement defines and regulates the procurement, use and commercial exploitation of the SOFTWARE as well as the related business and administrative activities if the USER uses the SOFTWARE free of charge for the purpose of evaluating the SOFTWARE. However, if the USER concludes a legal transaction against payment, a separate licence agreement shall apply.
+
+3.	Conditions of use
+
+The USER is obliged to provide truthful, comprehensive and correct information within the framework of the business relationship and to keep the specific information up to date at all times. The USER shall treat all data confidentially (this applies in particular to log-in data and passwords). If the USER suspects misuse by third parties, he must inform the COMPANY of this immediately.
+
+The USER shall refrain from all actions which may endanger or impair the technical functionality of the SOFTWARE (including cyber attacks). Such behaviour will be prosecuted.
+
+The USER shall take reasonable precautions to protect the SOFTWARE from unauthorised access by third parties. The USER shall inform its employees or persons similar to employees that the creation of copies beyond the scope of this evaluation licence agreement is not permitted.
+
+The USER is responsible for setting up the necessary infrastructure to ensure the intended operation of the SOFTWARE. The COMPANY is not obliged to provide any further information or advice in this respect.
+
+It is the USER's responsibility to check the compatibility (i.e. the ability to interact with the USER's existing software and hardware infrastructure) and the functional scope of the SOFTWARE before using it against payment.
+
+4.	Copyright
+
+The COMPANY shall provide the USER with the SOFTWARE on a non-exclusive basis and for a unlimited period of time, content and territory, however, only for the evaluation purposes (within the meaning of section 24 (1) sentence 1 of the Austrian Copyright Act "Werknutzungsbewilligung"). The objective purpose of the business relationship is the evaluation of the SOFTWARE for the purpose of trial. Unless expressly agreed otherwise, the SOFTWARE may also be used for commercial purposes. The exclusive right to use and exploit the SOFTWARE (within the meaning of section 24 (1) sentence 2 UrhG "Werknutzungsrecht") shall in any case remain with the COMPANY.
+
+The USER is permitted to use the SOFTWARE exclusively for the evaluation purposes intended by the COMPANY.
+
+Please note that the evaluation license does not grant the USER the right to use the SOFTWARE in its entirety.
+
+Sub-licensing or further licensing is only permitted with the express consent of the COMPANY. 
+
+The right to decompile the SOFTWARE is excluded.
+
+Markings of the SOFTWARE, in particular copyright notices, trademarks, serial numbers or similar may not be removed, changed or made unrecognisable.
+
+The surrender of the source code of the SOFTWARE is not owed. Neither is a user manual owed, nor the performance of training courses.
+
+5.	Use of open source components
+
+The SOFTWARE developed and provided by the COMPANY contains components that are licensed as Open Source Software. The OSS components may only be used under the respective OSS licence conditions. The OSS components are listed in Annex I. The source code of the OSS components (see „Readme“ in Annex I), the respective licence texts, any copyright notices and their disclaimers shall be made available to the CUSTOMER via link in Annex I.
+
+Upon request by the CUSTOMER, the open source code can also be transmitted on a permanent data carrier (e.g. USB stick).
+
+Attention: With regard to the OSS components used, the contractual partner of the CUSTOMER is not the COMPANY, but the respective open source licensor.
+
+Attention: The COMPANY draws attention to the fact that risks are associated with the use of OSS components. As - demonstrative - examples are to be mentioned: Because the source code of the OSS components is public, it is susceptible to security incidents; furthermore, permanent maintenance and use of the OSS components is not ensured; warranty and damage claims are largely excluded.
+
+6.	Restriction of the duty to make available
+
+Since no paid version is owed, the COMPANY is in no way obliged to make the SOFTWARE available. The COMPANY reserves the right to discontinue the SOFTWARE without notice.
+
+7.	Limitation of liability and warranty
+
+Since no paid version is owed, all warranty and liability claims against the COMPANY are excluded in their entirety. This shall not apply in the event of intentional damage.
+
+8.	Right to amend the evaluation licence
+
+The COMPANY shall be entitled to amend this Evaluation Licence Agreement at any time. The COMPANY shall inform the USER of such amendments by sending the amended Evaluation Licence Agreement to the contact details last provided by the USER. The USER shall have the right to object to the amendments. If the USER does not object within 14 days after notification of the amendments, it shall be assumed that the USER has tacitly agreed to the amended evaluation licence agreement.
+
+9.	Data protection and protection of business and trade secrets
+
+The disclosure of data and information to the respective required business partners is permitted to the extent necessary for the fulfilment of the contractual relationship (Art 6 para 1 lit b GDPR). Otherwise, the COMPANY and the USER shall be mutually obliged to maintain secrecy with regard to the circumstances and data relating to the other of which they become aware as a result of the present business relationship and, in particular, to observe data secrecy. These obligations regarding data and business secrecy shall also apply beyond the contractual relationship. The COMPANY and the USER further undertake to instruct and instruct their employees and vicarious agents in this sense.
+
+The contracting parties further undertake to protect mutually disclosed business and trade secrets appropriately within the meaning of section 26b (1) no. 3 of the Austrian UWG.
+
+A violation of the confidentiality obligations may (among other things) result in consequences under criminal law and damages law.
+
+It is pointed out that the source code programmed by the COMPANY constitutes a trade and business secret within the meaning of section 26b UWG. 
+
+The COMPANY informs that data of the USER may be processed for advertising purposes on the basis of legitimate interests (Art 6 para 1 lit f DSGVO). The USER is entitled to object to the processing of his/her data for advertising purposes (Art 21 (2) GDPR).
+
+10.	Reference-Clause
+
+The COMPANY shall be entitled to indicate the fact of the business relationship with the USER by means of a reference on its homepage or business papers. The COMPANY shall be entitled to use the USER's logo in this context. This right to name references also extends beyond the contractual relationship.
+
+11.	Participation in evaluations
+
+For the purpose of evaluating the SOFTWARE, the USER undertakes to provide the COMPANY with information on the user-friendliness and performance of the SOFTWARE to a reasonable extent free of charge upon request by the COMPANY and, if necessary, to communicate any suggestions for improvement.
+
+12.	Blocking access to the SOFTWARE
+
+If the COMPANY has reasonable grounds to believe that the USER or one of its end users is using the SOFTWARE in an unlawful manner, the COMPANY shall be entitled to block access to the SOFTWARE immediately and without prior notice. This shall not affect the possibility of further legal remedies.
+
+13.	Jurisdiction and applicable law
+
+This contractual relationship shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Austrian law. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and of conflict-of-law rules is excluded. 
+
+The exclusive place of jurisdiction is the competent court in Korneuburg, Austria.
+
+14.	Further issues
+
+If any part of this Evaluation Licence Agreement should be invalid, the validity of the remaining conditions shall not be affected thereby. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision which comes as close as possible to the economic intent of both contracting parties as discernible from the agreement.
+
+The COMPANY recommends the USER to save this licence agreement permanently.

 #### Don't overcook your battery! Keep it fresh and chewy with AlDente.
 
-## !IMPORTANT! Regarding this message: "AlDente will damage your computer. You should move it to the trash."
-Due to an expired developer certificate, all versions of AlDente prior to 2.1.2 are not working anymore. We have just released an updated and fixed version (AlDente 2.1.2, https://github.com/davidwernhart/AlDente/releases) signed with our new official developer account. However, some might need to delete the old helper files manually (instructions are in the release notes).
-
-## AlDente for Apple Silicon (M1 MacBooks) is out now!
-The time has come: AlDente for Apple Silicon (M1 MacBooks) is out now. We thank everyone who has helped us here in the forum and hope you like it. Thats not all, we have also started working on a pro version of AlDente with advanced features several weeks ago. Since we have put a lot of hours into developing the app, it will cost a little. However, there will always be this free and open source version of AlDente updated with the new M1 SMC keys.  If you have any feature requests or ideas for AlDente Pro, let us know. If you want to get notified, when AlDente Pro comes out, just enter your email at https://apphousekitchen.com/aldente/ In the meantime, stay safe and keep your battery fresh. David & Matthias
-
 ## Why do I need this?
-Li-ion and polymer batteries (like the one in your MacBook) last the longest when operating between 20 and 60 percent. Keeping your battery at 100% at all times can shorten the lifespan of your MacBook significantly.
+Li-Ion batteries (like the one in your MacBook) last the longest when operating between 20 and 80 percent. Keeping your battery at 100% at all times can shorten the lifespan of your MacBook significantly.

-## Features
+## What’s AlDente Pro?
-* Max. Battery Charge allows you to set your maximum charging percentage between 20 and 100 percent. You can either set it by using the slide bar or by typing in the desired percentage in the field above and pressing enter afterwards.
+AlDente Pro is our paid version of AlDente. It has many more features such as Heat Protection, Sailing Mode, Top Up, Calibration Mode,... It offers a better design and has live status icons. If you are interested in getting the most out of your battery, check out our [website](https://apphousekitchen.com/).
-* Launch at Login does exatly what it says, it will automatically launch AlDente when you start your MacBook. Make sure you safe the AlDente program file in the Applications folder for this feature to work.
-* Allow Discharge (Beta) - When this feature is activated, your MacBook will run on battery until it has reached the desired percentage. Afterwards, it will stay at the desired battery percentage and use the power adapter again. Unfortunately, while "Allow Discharge" is activated, clamshell mode is not supported due to technical limitations.
-* Use Classic SMC Key (Intel) - When activated, AlDente will use a different pathway to inhibit charging with the benefit of inhibiting charging even if your MacBook is turned off. However, it comes with a tradeoff: The feature "Allow Discharge" is not available when its activated. Furthermore, as the name suggests, this feature is only available on Intel MacBooks.
 
-## Feature Review and Installation Process
+AlDente Pro is now available on [Setapp](https://apphousekitchen.com/pricing/) too.

+## Features of AlDente Free
+* Charge Limiter allows you to set your maximum charging percentage between 20 and 100 percent. You can either set it by using the slide bar or by typing in the desired percentage in the field above and pressing enter afterwards. Read more about the Charge Limiter feature in this article ["Feature Explanation: Charge Limiter"](https://apphousekitchen.com/feature-explanation-charge-limiter/).
+* Discharge - This feature allows your MacBook to run completely on Battery even if it is plugged in. Therefore, you can actively discharge your MacBook to a more healthy percentage. Unfortunately, while Discharge is activated, clamshell mode is not supported due to technical limitations. Read more about the Discharge feature in this article ["Feature Explanation: Discharge"](https://apphousekitchen.com/feature-explanation-discharge/).

-## Download:
 You can download the app from GitHub: <https://github.com/davidwernhart/AlDente/releases>
 
-## How to use:
+## Installation Guide
-Simply extract the latest .zip release and drag the App to your Applications Folder.
+An installation guide can be found on our website:[Installation Guide](https://apphousekitchen.com/installation-guide/)
 
-If you get the annoying `"AlDente cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified"` or `"AlDente.app" can’t be opened because Apple can’t check it for malicious software.` messages on Catalina, simply navigate to your Applications folder using Finder, right click on AlDente and select `Open`. Then you can proceed to start the tool normally.
+## How to use
+When the installation is finished, enter your desired max. charging percentage by clicking on the 🍝 icon on your menu bar. Usually, the operating system will take a minute or two registering the changes, so be patient. You can check if it's working by setting the max. percentage to e.g.: 80%. After a while, clicking on your battery icon will report "Battery is not charging" if you have more than ≈73% left, even though your charger is connected. Notice that in this state, your MacBook is still powered by the charger, but the battery is not charging anymore.
 
-On the first start, the application is going to ask you to allow installing a helper tool. This is necessary, since writing SMC Keys requires root privileges.
+IMPORTANT: Keeping your battery at a lower percentage, such as under 80%, over weeks without doing full cycles (100%-0%) can result in a disturbed battery calibration. When this happens, your Macbook might turn off with 40-50% left or your battery capacity will drop significantly. However, this is only due to a disturbed battery calibration and not because of a faulty or degraded battery. To avoid this issue, we recommend doing at least one full cycle (0%-100%) every two weeks. Even if your battery calibration gets disturbed, doing 4+ full cycles will recalibrate your battery and the capacity will go up again.
-Once finished, enter your desired max. charging percentage by clicking on the 🍝 icon on your menu bar.
 
-For some reason, macOS will always try to squeeze in a few more percent than specified by the SMC. For example, if you set yours to 80% it will stop charging at around 83%, so be patient. Strangely, this is not the case using Windows with bootcamp, therefore I have chosen not to correct this inaccuracy in code for now.

-Usually, the operating system will take a minute or two registering the changes, so be patient. You can check if it's working by setting the max. percentage to e.g.: 70%. After a while, clicking on your battery icon will report "Battery is not charging" if you have more than ≈73% left, even though your charger is connected. Notice that in this state, your MacBook is still powered by the charger, but the battery is not charging anymore.

-IMPORTANT: Keeping your battery at a lower percentage, such as 20-70%, over weeks without doing full cycles (100%-0%) can result in a disturbed battery calibration. When this happens, your Macbook might turn off with 40-50% left or your battery capacity will drop significantly. However, this is only due to a disturbed battery calibration and not because of a faulty or degraded battery. To avoid this issue, we recommend doing at least one full cycle (0%-100%) every month. Even if your battery calibration gets disturbed, doing 4-5 full cycles will recalibrate your battery and the capacity will go up again.

-## FAQ
-* IT DOES NOT WORK???
-
-AlDente does only prevent your Mac from charging more than you specify, it does NOT automatically drain your battery to the specified percentage.
-* STILL NOT WORKING :(
-
-Simply reboot your MacBook! This seems to do the trick for most people.
-* HOW TO UNINSTALL?
-
-Make Sure to set your max. charging percentage back to 100 before moving AlDente to the Trash. If you really want to make sure, you can also reset your Mac's SMC. If you want to also remove the helper tool, take a look at this issue: <https://github.com/davidwernhart/AlDente/issues/19>.
-* DO I HAVE TO UNCHECK THE BUILT IN BATTERY HEALTH CHECKBOX?
-
-Yes! Leaving it on results in slow charging, even when AlDente is trying to inhibit it.
-* WHAT DOES THE FEATURE "USE OLD SMC KEY (INTEL)" DO?
-
-When activated, AlDente will use a different pathway to inhibit charging with the benefit of inhibiting charging even if your MacBook is turned off. However, it comes with a tradeoff: The feature "Allow Discharge" is not available when its activated. Furthermore, as the name suggests, this feature is only available on Intel MacBooks.
-* WHY DOES ALLOW DISCHARGE NOT WORK IN CLAMSHELL MODE?
-
-Unfortunately, while "Allow Discharge" is activated, clamshell mode is not supported due to technical limitations.

-AlDente is currently in alpha phase and bugs may still be possible. Therefore, I do not take any responsibility for any sort of damage in result of using this tool! Alltough this had no negative side effects for me, AlDente still taps in some very low level system functions that are not ment to be tampered with. Use it at your own risk!
