1. OWNERSHIP AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
The Software is the proprietary intellectual property of Heitor Faria (the

licensed, not sold. No title to or ownership of the Software is transferred.
All rights not expressly granted are reserved by the Licensor.
2. LICENSE GRANT
Subject to this Agreement, the Licensor grants Licensee a non-exclusive,

Licensee shall NOT, and shall not permit any third party to:
(a) copy, redistribute, sublicense, sell, rent, lease, or make the Software
available to any third party;
(b) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive
the source code, algorithms, or internal design of the Software, except
to the limited extent this restriction is expressly prohibited by
applicable law (e.g., mandatory interoperability rights);

(e) share, publish, or transfer repository credentials or license keys;

4. NO SUPPORT AND NO WARRANTY FOR COMMUNITY / FREE EDITIONS
The free or community edition of the Software is provided WITHOUT ANY
SUPPORT, MAINTENANCE, SERVICE-LEVEL COMMITMENT, OR UPDATES of any kind. The
Licensor has NO OBLIGATION to provide bug fixes, patches, assistance, or
response of any kind for community/free editions. Paid support and warranties,
if any, are available only under a separate commercial subscription.
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND
NON-INFRINGEMENT. LICENSEE ASSUMES ALL RISK ARISING FROM USE OF THE SOFTWARE,
INCLUDING ANY RISK TO DATA. LICENSEE IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING
INDEPENDENT BACKUPS AND VERIFYING RESTORES.
5. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE LICENSOR BE
LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE
DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, OR BUSINESS, ARISING FROM
OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES. THE LICENSOR'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE
AMOUNT, IF ANY, PAID BY LICENSEE FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS
PRECEDING THE CLAIM (AND SHALL BE ZERO FOR FREE/COMMUNITY EDITIONS).
6. CONFIDENTIALITY (NON-DISCLOSURE)
The Software, repository contents, license keys, credentials, non-public
documentation, performance characteristics, and any information disclosed by
the Licensor that is not publicly available (collectively, "Confidential
Information") are confidential. Licensee shall: (a) hold Confidential
Information in strict confidence; (b) not disclose it to any third party
without the Licensor's prior written consent; (c) use it only as permitted by
this Agreement; and (d) protect it with at least the same care used for its
own confidential information. This obligation survives termination.
7. TERMINATION
This Agreement and the license terminate automatically if Licensee breaches
any term, or upon the Licensor's notice. Upon termination, Licensee must
cease all use and destroy all copies of the Software and Confidential
Information. Sections 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination.
8. GENERAL
This Agreement is the entire agreement regarding the Software and supersedes
prior understandings. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder
stays in effect. The Licensor may update this Agreement; continued use after
an update constitutes acceptance. Failure to enforce a provision is not a
waiver. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Licensor's jurisdiction,
without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.
