# Paid license terms

The canonical page for buyers is on the website: `/license-terms/` (and each locale prefix). This file mirrors that
policy for the repository.

The Triwarden **source code** is free software under the [GPL-3.0](../LICENSE). These terms apply only to
**paid License keys** sold for official builds (the reminder, the name, and the store). Compiling from source under
the GPL is a separate right and is not limited by these paid-key terms.

They are an honour system: the app does not enforce a device seat count.

For purchase or product questions, email [support@triwarden.cc](mailto:support@triwarden.cc).

## One person, your Macs

A paid License key is for **one natural person** — the assignee.

- You may activate it on **every Mac that person uses**, including a company Mac. There is no device limit.
- You may **not** resell, transfer, or lend the key.
- You may **not** share one key across separate users, a team, or an organization.

If several people need Triwarden, each person needs their own key. A company may purchase keys and assign each to
one person.

## Personal and work use

**Personal use is free. Using official Triwarden builds to manage work accounts requires a paid License.**

Work accounts include company email, company GitHub, client systems, and service accounts used for freelance
work. If you manage both personal and work accounts, one license covers both on every Mac you use.
Each team member needs their own license; an employer may purchase and assign them.

The purpose of use decides whether a license is needed, not who owns the Mac:

- Your own Mac, personal or household accounts only: free.
- Your own Mac, including work accounts: one paid license required.
- A company Mac, personal accounts only: free.

Personal use includes home self-hosted Vaultwarden. After 30 days, official free builds may show a purchase
reminder at most once a week. No features are locked, and the app does not inspect accounts to enforce payment.

## Paid keys and the GPL

A paid License covers the official build’s reminder and the permission for work use described here. It does **not**
replace or limit the GPL-3.0 rights in the source code.

Compiling Triwarden yourself under the GPL remains free and unrestricted by these paid-key terms. Forks must
use their own name and icon (see the project README).

## Changes

These terms may be updated for new purchases. Existing keys keep the rights stated when they were bought,
unless abuse (resale, public key dumps, clear multi-user sharing) leads to revocation.
