Terms

The plain-language rules for using FFB-Bridge, downloading builds, private download links, and getting support.

Last updated: 2026-07-21 — Private profile recovery preview

Who provides FFB-Bridge

FFB-Bridge is developed and published by Rohsam Inc., a software publisher based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Product support is available at support·ffb-bridge.com. Publisher and code-signing verification details are available at rohsam.com/legal.

Software status

FFB-Bridge is currently at v1.4.0. It may still receive updates, may contain bugs that need troubleshooting, and may behave differently with different simulators, aircraft, operating systems, and hardware setups.

Private download links

Download links sent by email are for your own use. Please do not mirror, resell, repackage, or redistribute private links or installers. If someone else wants FFB-Bridge, send them to ffb-bridge.com so they can get the current build, hashes, safety notes, and support path.

Community profile library

If you upload or download tuning profiles through the community Profile Library, the Profile Library Terms also apply. They cover who owns a shared profile, the licence you grant by uploading, what you may do with profiles you download (use, modify, and re-share non-commercially — no selling), and our right to remove profiles.

Embedded YouTube videos

Forum posts may offer a YouTube player behind a clear load button. The player does not contact YouTube until you select that button. By selecting “Load video from YouTube”, you ask your browser to connect to YouTube and agree that your use of the player is subject to the YouTube Terms of Service and Google processes that connection under its Google Privacy Policy.

Free app and optional support payments

FFB-Bridge is free to download and use. The current app features remain free; an optional support payment is not required for download access, feature access, updates, or ordinary support. If you choose to support development, you pick the amount and complete payment through Stripe-hosted checkout.

Optional support payments help cover development, signing, infrastructure, hardware, and testing. They are not a purchase of a separate licence, paid support plan, priority support queue, or promised future feature. If you make a payment by mistake, contact support·ffb-bridge.com.

FFB-Bridge Pro license purchases

FFB-Bridge Pro is an optional paid software license, separate from the free app and separate from optional support payments. If you buy Pro, checkout is hosted by Stripe. After Stripe confirms payment, the FFB-Bridge website creates a license record and sends the license key to the email address used for checkout.

Keep your license key private. The website stores a keyed hash and suffix of the key; the raw key is excluded. If you lose it, license recovery can rotate or reissue a new key for the same license. Existing activated installs may continue refreshing with their activation tokens unless the license is refunded, charged back, suspended, or revoked.

Refunds, mistaken purchases, chargebacks, and purchase support are handled through support·ffb-bridge.com. A refunded or disputed Pro purchase may cause the related license to stop issuing new entitlements.

Private profile recovery preview

If you explicitly enable this included Pro preview, FFB-Bridge may keep private remote copies of profile JSON you select. Your local files remain the authoritative working copies. The service is not continuous multi-computer sync, does not replace your own local backups, and never turns private profiles into public Profile Library posts. Pausing or losing access does not delete or block local profiles.

The preview allows up to 250 active profiles, 10 retained versions per profile, 500 retained profile identities, 5,000 retained versions per account, 30 days of recoverable trash, and 25 MiB of compressed content. Retained history and trash count toward those limits. Portable export is capped at 256 MiB of retained plaintext plus its manifest so export and import remain possible. Expired trash and versions outside the retention limit may be permanently removed.

This gated preview carries no promise of uninterrupted availability or successful recovery. New enrollment and new uploads require the service to be enabled and an active, eligible Pro license. If that license lapses, an existing recovery account retains sign-in, export, and erasure while the privacy service remains operational. New enrollment may be paused, and public availability remains gated until off-site recovery and erasure drills pass. Core force feedback and local profile files remain available independently.

Code signing and verification

Windows installers are code-signed by the Rohsam publisher identity. Windows may still show SmartScreen or Smart App Control reputation prompts for new builds until those specific files gain download history. Before installing, verify that the file came from ffb-bridge.com, check the published SHA-256 hash when available, and confirm the publisher shown by Windows is Rohsam Inc. or RohsamInc.

Safety

FFB-Bridge controls a force-feedback joystick. Keep your desk clear, keep hands and cables away from moving parts, and arm force output only when you are ready for the stick to move. You are responsible for deciding whether your hardware setup is safe for use.

No warranty

FFB-Bridge is provided as-is and as-available, without warranties of any kind. Rohsam Inc. does not promise uninterrupted operation, fitness for a particular purpose, compatibility with every system, or that every issue can be fixed.

Support

We try to provide practical support, especially when reports include clear reproduction steps, screenshots, logs, or a support bundle. Support is not guaranteed, and response times may vary depending on issue volume and the hardware involved.

Postal contact for legal notices or written requests: Rohsam Inc., 2727 Steeles Ave West, Unit 103-886, Toronto, ON M3J 3G9, Canada.
