Ghosthand Pro Source License

This is the license of the private repository ghosthand-dev/ghosthand-daemon, which Pro subscribers can read on GitHub. The same text is in the repository's LICENSE file.

In short (this summary is not part of the license): you can read, change and build this code for your own work while your Pro subscription is active. You cannot publish it, share it outside your company, sell it, or use it to build a product that competes with ghosthand. When the subscription ends, delete your copies.

1. Definitions

"Licensor", "we" and "us" means Tommaso De Rossi, who runs ghosthand.dev.

"Licensee" and "you" means the person or organization whose ghosthand.dev account has an active Subscription. If you accept this license for an organization, you confirm that you have the authority to bind it.

"Subscription" means a paid ghosthand Pro subscription on ghosthand.dev that is in good standing.

"Software" means the contents of the private repository ghosthand-dev/ghosthand-daemon, and any other material we give you access to under this license: source code, private skills, documentation, tests, scripts and assets, in every version and branch.

"Modification" means any change to the Software, and any work that contains or is derived from any part of the Software.

"Build" means any compiled or packaged form of the Software or of a Modification.

"Authorized User" means an employee or contractor of yours who needs the Software to work for you and who is bound by confidentiality obligations at least as strict as those in this license. If you are an individual without an organization, you are the only Authorized User.

"Competing Product" means a product or service, paid or free, that substitutes for ghosthand or ghosthand.dev, or that offers the same or substantially similar functionality, for example the control of iPhones over USB or Bluetooth by agents, scripts or remote clients.

2. License grant

While your Subscription is active and you comply with this license, we grant you a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license for your Authorized Users to:

(a) read and study the Software;
(b) make Modifications;
(c) make Builds and run them on Macs that you own or control, for your internal business purposes, including services that you provide to your own clients; and
(d) make the copies that these uses need, plus reasonable backups.

Your clients can benefit from your use of the Software, but they must never receive the Software, a Modification or a Build, or access to them.

You can use AI coding assistants to read and change the Software for the purposes above, only with providers that do not train on your code or make it available to others.

3. Restrictions

You must not, and must not allow anyone else to:

(a) publish the Software or a Modification, in whole or in part, for example in a public repository, gist, package registry, blog post, forum, paste site or public dataset;
(b) give, share, sell, rent, lend, sublicense or otherwise distribute the Software, a Modification or a Build to anyone who is not an Authorized User;
(c) share your repository access, invitation or credentials, or give repository access to anyone who is not an Authorized User;
(d) make the Software, a Modification or a Build available to third parties as a hosted or managed service, or as part of a product that they install or run;
(e) use the Software or a Modification to create, train or improve a Competing Product;
(f) remove, disable or bypass the account, plan, lease or license checks in the Software, or use a Build to get more than your plan includes, for example more Macs or iPhones than you pay for;
(g) remove or change copyright, license or other notices in the Software; or
(h) use the Software to train, fine-tune or evaluate a machine learning model that is made available to anyone other than you.

4. Confidentiality

The Software is our confidential information and contains our trade secrets. Protect it with at least the care you use for your own confidential source code, and never less than reasonable care. If you learn of any unauthorized access, copy or publication, tell us promptly at the contact address below.

This section does not apply to information that is public through no fault of yours. Parts of ghosthand that we publish under an open-source license, such as the public repository ghosthand-dev/ghosthand, are not covered by this license.

5. Ownership and feedback

The Software is licensed, not sold. We keep all right, title and interest in the Software, including all intellectual property rights. All rights not expressly granted in this license are reserved.

You keep the rights to code you write yourself, but you can use any part of a Modification that contains or is derived from the Software only under this license.

If you send us feedback, bug reports, patches or pull requests, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, change and publish them for any purpose, with no obligation to you.

6. Third-party software

The Software uses open-source components. Each component is licensed under its own terms, which apply to that component instead of this license.

7. Term and termination

This license starts when you first get access to the Software. It ends automatically when your Subscription ends for any reason, for example cancellation at the end of the paid period, failed payment or deletion of your account.

If you breach this license, your rights end at once. We can remove your repository access and suspend your account. We decide whether to refund the current period; we do not give refunds for intentional breaches, such as publishing or redistributing the Software.

When this license ends, you must stop using the Software, your Modifications and your Builds, and delete every copy of them within 14 days, from every computer, repository and storage that you control. Copies in automatic backups can be deleted in the normal backup cycle, but you must not restore or use them. If we ask, confirm the deletion in writing.

The official ghosthand releases (the npm package and the Mac installer) are not covered by this license. You can keep using them under the terms of service.

Sections 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 continue to apply after this license ends.

8. No warranty

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", 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.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE OR DATA, ARISING FROM THE SOFTWARE OR THIS LICENSE, EVEN IF WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY WERE POSSIBLE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM. NOTHING IN THIS LICENSE LIMITS LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED BY LAW, SUCH AS LIABILITY FOR WILFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE.

10. Enforcement

Any use of the Software outside this license infringes our copyright. Unauthorized use or disclosure of the Software can cause us harm that money cannot repair, so we can ask any competent court for an injunction or other urgent relief, in addition to all other remedies.

11. Governing law

This license is governed by the laws of Italy, without regard to conflict of law rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply. The courts of Italy have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute about this license, except that we can ask for urgent relief under section 10 in any competent court. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you can bring a claim in its courts.

12. Changes to this license

We can publish new versions of this license. We tell you by email at least 30 days before a new version applies to you. If you do not agree with it, cancel your Subscription before that date; this version then applies until your Subscription ends.

13. General

This license and the ghosthand terms of service are the whole agreement between you and us about the Software. If they conflict, this license applies to the Software.

You cannot transfer this license without our written consent. We can transfer it to a successor of the ghosthand business. If a part of this license cannot be enforced, the rest stays in effect. If we do not enforce a part of this license, we do not waive our right to enforce it later.
