Copyright © 2026 Joey Di Nardo. All rights reserved.
Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person or organization obtaining a copy of the software in binary form and its accompanying documentation (collectively, the “Software”), to use and copy the Software subject to the following terms.
1. Permitted Use
You may install, execute, and use the Software:
a. for your own personal purposes;
b. for the internal operations of your organization; and
c. on computers, servers, virtual machines, containers, or cloud infrastructure owned, leased, or controlled by you or your organization.
You may allow your employees and contractors to use the Software solely on your behalf and solely for the permitted purposes described above. You remain responsible for their compliance with this License.
2. Free Redistribution
You may redistribute copies of the Software only when all of the following conditions are met:
a. the Software is provided in its original, unmodified form;
b. no fee or other consideration is charged for the Software;
c. the Software is not sold, rented, leased, sublicensed, or included in a product or service for which payment or other consideration is required; and
d. this License and all copyright, attribution, and proprietary notices are included with every copy.
Recipients receive their rights directly from the Copyright Holder under this License. You may not grant or represent that you have granted any additional rights in the Software.
3. No Resale or Commercial Distribution
You may not, directly or indirectly:
a. sell, resell, rent, lease, sublicense, or otherwise commercially distribute the Software;
b. charge a fee for access to, delivery of, or use of the Software;
c. bundle or incorporate the Software into any paid product, appliance, subscription, commercial distribution, or other offering; or
d. use the Software as a material component of a product that is distributed to third parties.
Charging only for the reasonable physical cost of storage media or delivery does not constitute selling the Software, provided no other fee or consideration is charged.
4. No Hosted or Productized Service
You may not make the Software or its functionality available for use by third parties as part of a hosted, managed, or productized service.
This prohibition includes offering the Software or substantially similar functionality through:
a. a Software-as-a-Service offering;
b. a hosted or managed application;
c. an application programming interface or network-accessible service;
d. a cloud service, platform service, or service bureau;
e. a paid consulting or managed-service offering in which customers receive access to or use of the Software’s functionality; or
f. any other product or service that substantially substitutes for a third party installing and using the Software itself.
Hosting the Software on infrastructure owned, leased, or controlled by you solely for your own personal use or internal organizational operations is permitted.
Providing ordinary content, files, reports, or other output created through permitted internal use of the Software does not by itself constitute a hosted or productized service, unless the offering enables third parties to use, direct, or substantially obtain the functionality of the Software.
5. No Modification or Reverse Engineering
Except to the extent that applicable law expressly prohibits this restriction, you may not:
a. modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the Software;
b. reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover its source code;
c. bypass or disable any technical restriction or licensing mechanism; or
d. remove or alter any copyright, trademark, attribution, or proprietary notice.
6. No Transfer of Ownership
The Software is licensed, not sold. The Copyright Holder retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Software. No rights are granted except those expressly stated in this License.
No trademark rights or rights to use the Copyright Holder’s names, logos, or branding are granted.
7. Termination
Your rights under this License terminate automatically if you violate any of its terms.
Upon termination, you must stop using and distributing the Software and delete all copies in your possession or control. Sections intended by their nature to survive termination, including the ownership, warranty, and liability provisions, will remain in effect.
The Copyright Holder may reinstate your rights in writing.
8. Disclaimer of Warranty
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS,” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NONINFRINGEMENT.
IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER, AUTHORS, OR CONTRIBUTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES, OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OF OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE.
9. Separate Commercial Licenses
The Copyright Holder may offer separate commercial licenses permitting redistribution, resale, modification, embedding, hosted use, managed services, or other uses not permitted under this License.
A separate license does not modify this License unless expressly stated in writing by the Copyright Holder.
