configuratorware
End Users License Agreement EULA
Current Revision: August 28th, 2023

Introduction

Despite configuratorware's source code being publicly available (and not being encrypted), configuratorware is not free to use. If you use configuratorware on a public server, you have to purchase a license.

This End User License Agreement (the "Agreement") defines the relationship between you and us. If you do not agree to this Agreement, please do not install or use configuratorware. Installation or use of configuratorware implies that you have read and understood the Agreement and that you will be bound to it.

We recommend to read this Agreement carefully before you install and use configuratorware.

Definitions:

"We"/"Our"/"Us": configuratorware GmbH, the creator of configuratorware. Our contact data can be found on our website.

"You": The licensee: An individual or company that has downloaded and/or installed configuratorware on one or more computer(s).

"Project": A project is a software solution based on configuratorware that that serves a single purpose. Each project requires a separate license. A project is defined by:
- A single main domain: everything between protocol, prefixes and top level domain (tld), e.g. for [https\://www.]myproject[.com] "myproject" is the main domain. Additional tlds are no additional projects, nor are different prefixes.
- An unlimited number of subdomains or root directories as long as they are used as Test-, Development- or Staging-Environments. To use different subdomains or roots to serve multiple purposes or clients requires a "SaaS Software License"

"Development Machine": A computer that is used to work on a project. The software cannot be used by end users (no production usage).

"Version": A new software version that adds features, bugfixes or improvements. Updates are identified by the change of the revision right of the first decimal point, e.g. 1.12 to 1.13

"Major Version": A new software version that contains major new features, enhancements, or a new technical base. Upgrades are identified by the change of the revision left of the first decimal point, e.g. 1.X to 2.0 - New Major Versions are extremely rare.

"Source Code": The contents of all files that are provided with configuratorware. This includes (but is not limited to) all PHP, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Image, and other media files.

"Clients License": A license that allows the usage of a single configuratorware installation to serve multiple clients, e.g. if a single manufacturer provides its configurator to an unlimited number of retailers. Still the configuratorware installation is bound to a single main domain. The Clients License is always an addition to a Project License.

"SaaS Software License": A license that allows the creation of a Software as a Service (SaaS, often referred to as "Cloud based Software") using configuratorware.

Usage of configuratorware for a project

The usage of configuratorware for a project requires a paid license.
The usage of configuratorware on a Development Machine does not require a paid license. Installations without an activated paid license are flagged with a banner.

configuratorware is software and software is intangible, we don't sell it as such. Instead, this Agreement grants a license for each purchase to install and use the software for a single project. Each project needs its own license. A paid license can technically be activated on an unlimited number of computers to use it on Development Machines or in Test-, Development- or Staging-Environments. Using the same paid license for different projects is not allowed.

A license is non-exclusive (we sell it not exclusively to you but to a broad range of customers). A license is non-transferable (meaning that the one who purchases the license is the licensee). If you want to transfer a license, please contact us.

A license is valid for all Versions of a Major Version. New Major Versions do require a new license (since the are basically a different software per definition).

Reproduction

Modification of the Source Code

Do not modify the source code of configuratorware itself. Doing this can lead to problems when installing new versions and we cannot provide technical support for modified such code. Explicitly do not alter or remove license validation, this makes you liable to prosecution.

configuratorware provides explicit concepts to customize the software (extend, modify, change the software's behaviour) by adding own code that does not interfere with the installation of configuratorware.
