License for jsonb toaster

Mar 24, 2022 16:41

Finally, we made License for jsonb toaster.

We use this license to make our software available for all PostgreSQL users without limitations. If required user may adapt software for internal use. On the other hand we limit usage of our software for SaaS and DBaaS services.

I would be grateful for comments.



POSTGRES PROFESSIONAL LICENSE
FOR CUSTOMERS TO INTERNALLY USE POSTGRES PRO SOFTWARE
Version 1.2, March 2022

0. Background. Postgres Professional publishes software in "source-available"
or "open code" form. This means that source code of the software is available
for inspection and modification.

1. LICENSE GRANT. If Postgres Professional LLC and Postgres Professional
Europe Limited (collectively "PgPro") intentionally provides to a legal or
natural person ("Customer") a copy of the Postgres Pro Software ("Software")
with an express written statement that this Postgres Professional License
("PgPro License") shall apply to such copy, then PgPro grants such Customer
a royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide, personal, non-transferable,
non-sublicensable right to copy, adapt and Internally Use the Software and
derivative versions of the Software on the condition that Customer complies
with all terms and limitations of this PgPro License and only to the extent
expressly permitted under this PgPro License.

"Internally Use" means executing and utilizing the functionality of the
Software by the Customer through statutory employees and individual
independent contractors of the Customer, its Affiliates and Service
Providers ("Customer's Extended Enterprise") for purposes of supporting the
Customer's internal business processes, subject to written confidentiality
and non-disclosure agreements that prohibit disclosures of the Software to
anyone outside Customer's Extended Enterprise, and does not extend to any
form of distribution, publication, public display, public performance or
hosting for remote access by anyone who is not part of Customer's Extended
Enterprise.

"Affiliate" means any legal entity that is wholly-owned by Customer,
wholly-owns Customer or is under hundred percent common ownership with
Customer.

"Service Provider" means an entity that uses the Software or derivative
version of the Software that Customer created, solely on behalf and in the
interest of the Customer (and not for its own purposes or its other
customers) to provide services other than technical support or modifications
of the Software. For the avoidance of doubt, PgPro does not grant any
license directly to Service Providers. Service Providers may only assist
Customer in exercising Customer's rights under this License. Service
Providers must not modify the Software or any derivative versions thereof or
provide Customer with technical support or maintenance concerning the Software.

2. LIMITATIONS. Customer must not use - or enable or permit anyone to use
- the Software, except as expressly permitted in Section 1 (License Grant).
For the avoidance of doubt, Customer must not disclose, distribute, sell,
publicly display, publicly perform or host on a "cloud," "SaaS," "DBaaS" or
other remote access basis.
