Last updated: April 2026. By downloading, installing, or using the Nudge application ("the App"), you agree to these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not download or use the App.
1. Read this first
Nudge is a software tool that transmits user-configured OSC messages over Wi-Fi to lighting equipment of your choosing. You are solely responsible for any consequence of those messages. Lighting equipment can injure people, damage property, or disrupt events when operated incorrectly. Before you touch the App, make sure you understand what your lighting console will do when it receives the messages Nudge sends.
2. Licence
Subject to these Terms, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the App on Apple devices that you own or control, solely for your own lawful use, in accordance with the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.
All intellectual property rights in the App — including source code, design, text, graphics, and trademarks ("Nudge" and related logos) — belong to Wessel Wagemans. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership to you.
3. Restrictions
You agree that you will not:
- copy, modify, translate, or create derivative works of the App, except as expressly permitted by applicable law;
- reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, except to the extent that mandatory law allows;
- remove, obscure, or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices in the App;
- rent, lease, sublicense, sell, redistribute, or otherwise transfer the App or access to it;
- use the App for any unlawful purpose, or in any manner that violates the rights of any third party.
4. Your responsibilities
You are solely responsible for:
- the lighting, stage, production, or other equipment that receives messages from the App;
- the configuration, programming, and operation of that equipment;
- testing the App thoroughly in a non-live, non-critical environment before relying on it in any performance, event, installation, or commercial context;
- ensuring that the use of the App complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and venue rules, including those relating to photosensitive epilepsy, strobe effects, emergency lighting, and workplace safety;
- providing and maintaining the network, Wi-Fi infrastructure, and console on which the App depends.
5. Not a life-safety product
The App is a creative and technical convenience tool. It is not intended for, certified for, or suitable for use in:
- emergency lighting, evacuation, or any life-safety system;
- any application where failure or unintended behaviour could lead to death, personal injury, or substantial property damage;
- any regulated environment that requires certified control systems.
You agree not to use the App in any such context.
6. No warranty
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. Wessel Wagemans (hereafter, "the Developer") specifically disclaims, to the fullest extent permitted, any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, accuracy, quiet enjoyment, and non-infringement.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Developer does not warrant that:
- the App will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free;
- the App will be compatible with any specific lighting console, controller, iOS version, or network configuration;
- defects in the App will be corrected;
- the App will meet your requirements or expectations.
Nothing in this section limits any rights that cannot be excluded under the mandatory consumer protection law applicable to you.
7. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:
- the Developer shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including, without limitation, damages for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, equipment, reputation, production downtime, missed performances, or business interruption, arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the App — even if the Developer has been advised of the possibility of such damages;
- the Developer's total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the App, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other theory, shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you actually paid to download the App, or (b) EUR 50.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits the Developer's liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under Dutch or applicable mandatory law.
8. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Developer from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with:
- your use or misuse of the App;
- your breach of these Terms;
- your violation of any law or of any rights of a third party;
- any damage, injury, or loss caused by lighting, audio, or other equipment controlled, directly or indirectly, through your use of the App.
9. Third-party trademarks

Nudge is an independent, third-party tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or otherwise associated with MA Lighting Technology GmbH, Sony, or Apple Inc. All third-party trademarks referenced in the App or in the documentation are the property of their respective owners.
10. Apple-specific terms
You acknowledge that these Terms are concluded between you and the Developer only, and not with Apple Inc. ("Apple"), and that the Developer (not Apple) is solely responsible for the App. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services with respect to the App.
In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price, if any, for the App. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple shall have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App.
Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
11. Termination
These Terms remain in effect until terminated. Your rights under these Terms will terminate automatically, without notice, if you fail to comply with any term. On termination, you must cease all use of the App and destroy all copies in your possession or control. Sections 3 through 12 survive termination.
12. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Netherlands, excluding its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the App that cannot be resolved amicably shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, this section does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you reside.
13. Changes to these Terms
The Developer may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be noted here and in the release notes of the App version that first becomes subject to them. Your continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
