Terms of Service

Effective date: 1 January 2026  ·  Track Impulse is operated by Track Impulse Pty Ltd (ABN 94 701 391 764), Victoria, Australia. In these Terms, "Track Impulse", "we" and "us" mean Track Impulse Pty Ltd.

1. Acceptance of terms

By downloading, installing, or using Track Impulse software ("the Software"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Software.

2. What Track Impulse is

Track Impulse is a Windows desktop application for sim racing, in two parts. The haptics engine reads telemetry from supported racing simulators and outputs low-latency audio signals to bass shaker hardware through an ASIO or WDM-KS audio device. Track Impulse Overlays displays live telemetry, timing and race information in separate transparent windows drawn on top of the running simulator. Either part can be used on its own. The current list of supported simulators is maintained on the Track Impulse website.

Track Impulse is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any simulator developer or vehicle manufacturer. All product names, simulator names, trademarks and logos referenced on this site or shown in the Software are the property of their respective owners. They are used only to identify the simulators Track Impulse is compatible with and the vehicles present in a session.

3. How Track Impulse interacts with your simulator

Track Impulse reads race data through the telemetry interfaces the simulators themselves publish. It does not read or modify simulator process memory, does not inject code into the simulator, and does not send driving inputs or control commands to it. The overlays are drawn in the Software's own windows positioned above the simulator, and do not alter the simulator or its files.

Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator and BeamNG.drive expose telemetry only through a plugin or mod. With your consent, Track Impulse copies that file into the relevant game folder. You can remove it at any time by deleting it.

EA Sports WRC and DiRT Rally 2.0 expose telemetry only once it is switched on in one of the game's own settings files. With your consent, Track Impulse writes those settings: for EA Sports WRC it adds its own packet layout file and one receiver entry to the telemetry folder's shared configuration, leaving any entries other tools have added in place; for DiRT Rally 2.0 it edits the hardware settings file and keeps a backup copy alongside it. You can undo either at any time by removing what it added or restoring the backup.

Some simulators, leagues and competitions set their own rules about third-party applications. You are responsible for confirming that your use of the Software is permitted by the simulator's terms of service and by the rules of any event you take part in.

4. Licence grant

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the Software on the number of machines stated for your plan at the time of purchase, currently up to 3, registered to your account, for your personal, non-commercial use.

5. Account and access

Access to the Software requires a verified email address. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and for all activity under it. You must provide accurate information and notify us promptly of any unauthorised use.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, are associated with fraudulent activity, or abuse the machine registration system.

6. Beta access and pricing

During the beta period, the Software is provided free of charge. When the beta period ends, continued access requires a paid plan. The Software may be offered as more than one product or component, each with its own plan and pricing. Plans and pricing at that time will be as displayed on the Track Impulse website. We will provide reasonable notice before the beta period ends.

Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle is the Merchant of Record for all Track Impulse orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries and handles returns. All billing, tax compliance, and payment processing is handled by Paddle under Paddle's Checkout Buyer Terms.

7. Acceptable use

You agree to use the Software only for its intended purpose. You must not use the Software in any way that is unlawful, harmful, or interferes with other users or systems.

8. Intellectual property

The Software and all associated intellectual property rights are owned by Track Impulse. These Terms do not transfer any ownership rights to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

The Software is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the Software will be error-free, uninterrupted, or compatible with all hardware configurations. Use of the Software with bass shaker hardware, and use of the overlays alongside a running simulator, is at your own risk.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Track Impulse shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of or inability to use the Software, including any damage to hardware.

11. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your access at any time for breach of these Terms. You may stop using the Software at any time. On termination, the licence granted under Section 4 immediately ceases.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify registered users by email of material changes. Continued use of the Software after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
