Commercial licence

Entelim is available under two licences. This page explains when you need the commercial licence from Archiet Ltd and what it gives you. It summarises the licence terms; the signed order form and the licence agreement it refers to govern.

Open source or commercial

Open source. Anyone may use, change and self-host Entelim free of charge under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0. If you run a changed version as a network service, the AGPL requires you to make your changed source code available to the users of that service. Commercial. A commercial licence lets you do what the AGPL would otherwise stop, or require of you, including:
  • running a changed version of Entelim for your users without publishing your changes;
  • building Entelim, or parts of it, into a product you do not release as open source;
  • offering Entelim to others as a hosted service under your own terms;
  • receiving a warranty, an indemnity and a support commitment.

Hosted subscriptions

If you subscribe to the hosted Entelim service, you do not need a separate licence to use it. Your subscription agreement gives your organisation's users the right to use the service for your internal business purposes for as long as the subscription runs.

What the commercial licence grants

For the licence term and within the scope set out in your order form — which names the number of users, the environments and any products you may build Entelim into — Archiet Ltd grants your organisation a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use, copy and modify Entelim, free of the AGPL's obligations. Your changes belong to you. Entelim itself, and our changes to it, remain ours.

What it does not allow

Unless your order form says otherwise, you may not:
  • pass on the licence, or sublicense Entelim, to another organisation;
  • use the Entelim name or logo to suggest your product is ours or that we endorse it;
  • remove copyright or licence notices from the source code.

Warranty, support and liability

We warrant that Entelim will perform substantially as its documentation describes for 90 days from the start of the licence, and support is provided at the level set in your order form. Apart from that, and to the extent the law allows, Entelim is provided without other warranties. Each party's total liability under the licence is limited to the fees paid in the 12 months before the claim, except for liability that cannot be limited by law.

Term and ending

The licence runs for the term in your order form and renews unless either party gives notice. If it ends, you must stop using the commercially licensed copies, although you may continue under the AGPL-3.0 if you meet its terms. Either party may end the licence if the other materially breaches it and does not put that right within 30 days of being told.

Law

The licence is governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction. To discuss a commercial licence: contact us.
