Copyright (c) 2026 JakeBreath

|
|
0. Authorized Distribution and Scope
|
|
|
|
This Licence applies exclusively to copies of the Software that have been
|
|
lawfully obtained from a public distribution channel explicitly designated
|
|
by the Licensor (e.g., GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, Itch.io, Steam, or any
|
|
similar public repository or platform) where the Software has been published
|
|
by the copyright holder. Any copy of the Software acquired through any other
|
|
means - including but not limited to breach of contract, violation of a
|
|
non-disclosure agreement, unauthorized access to private repositories,
|
|
exploitation of security vulnerabilities, hacking, or accessing a developer's
|
|
personal computer, local network, or development device - is not authorized,
|
|
and this Licence does not grant any rights whatsoever with respect to such
|
|
copies. Such copies receive no licence and remain fully protected by
|
|
copyright. No rights under this Licence are conveyed to any recipient of such
|
|
an unauthorized copy.
|
|
|
|
1. Grant of Rights and Conditions
|
|
|
|
Subject to the terms of this Licence, you are granted a worldwide,
|
|
royalty-free, non-exclusive, irrevocable licence to use, copy, modify, merge,
|
|
publish, distribute, and sublicense copies of the Software, provided that:
|
|
|
|
a) Attribution: You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to this
|
|
Licence, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any
|
|
reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the Licensor
|
|
endorses you or your use.
|
|
|
|
b) Copyleft: Any modified version of the Software that you distribute must
|
|
be licensed as a whole under this same Licence, and you must make the
|
|
corresponding source code readily available to recipients under these
|
|
same terms. This requirement applies to the modified work as a whole,
|
|
including any combined or derivative works that include any portion of
|
|
the Software.
|
|
|
|
c) Strictly Non-Commercial: Commercial use of the Software, in original or
|
|
modified form, is prohibited. "Commercial use" includes, but is not
|
|
limited to:
|
|
|
|
(i) selling the Software, including it in a product or service for
|
|
which a fee is charged, or using it to provide a paid service;
|
|
|
|
(ii) using the Software (directly or indirectly) on any website,
|
|
platform, application, or online service that displays
|
|
advertisements, sponsored content, or other promotional
|
|
material intended to generate revenue - including incidental
|
|
or automatically injected advertisements;
|
|
|
|
(iii) using the Software as part of the backend infrastructure,
|
|
content delivery network (CDN), or server-side processing of
|
|
any website, application, or service that restricts access to
|
|
content behind a paywall, subscription, or other payment
|
|
mechanism, or that otherwise monetizes content through
|
|
advertisements, commercial data collection, or similar means.
|
|
|
|
Any output, data, or results generated by the Software may not be
|
|
used in connection with any such monetized or advertisement-supported
|
|
platform.
|
|
|
|
2. Term and Termination
|
|
|
|
Your rights under this Licence terminate automatically if you violate any of
|
|
its terms. If you cure the violation within 30 days of it occurring, your
|
|
rights are reinstated automatically as of the date the violation is cured. On
|
|
termination you must stop using and distributing the Software. Termination
|
|
does not affect the rights of recipients who obtained copies from you in
|
|
compliance with this Licence. The Disclaimer of Warranty survives
|
|
termination.
|
|
|
|
