Terms for licences bought before 9 October 2026

These terms apply to every Klaudius licence bought as a one-time purchase before 9 October 2026, including its perpetual licence and lifetime updates. They are unchanged from the terms you bought under.

The general terms also apply to your licence, and where they say “these terms”, that includes these terms. If we transfer the general terms to a successor under section 9, these terms, including the lifetime updates in A4, transfer with them on the same terms. If you also hold a Klaudius subscription, the subscription is governed by the subscription terms, and your licence by these terms.

A1. The product

Klaudius is a software toolkit installed via npm into the buyer’s local development environment. It provides scaffolding code, templates, and tooling for building bespoke websites and managing related project workflows. Klaudius is sold as a one-time-purchase digital product with a perpetual licence to the version purchased.

A2. Licence grant

Subject to your compliance with these terms, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual licence to use Klaudius for your own commercial or personal use, on as many machines as you operate. The licence is granted to a single individual or single entity per purchase.

A3. Restrictions

You may not:

• Resell, sublicense, redistribute, or share the source code of Klaudius with any third party
• Publish the source code in a publicly accessible repository
• Remove or alter copyright or licence notices in the code
• Use Klaudius’s branding (name, logo, marks) to promote your own competing product
• Use the source code to train AI models

A4. Lifetime updates

Your purchase includes “lifetime updates”, which means: for as long as we continue to offer Klaudius as a commercial product, you receive at no additional cost every update we publish to the version line you purchased, including new template features, new skills, security and compatibility patches, and framework improvements. Updates are delivered through the in-product update mechanism (npx klaudius@latest update).

“Lifetime” refers to the lifetime of the Klaudius product, not the lifetime of the buyer. We may discontinue Klaudius at any time. If we do, your perpetual licence to the last released version remains valid under the terms granted at purchase, and we will give reasonable advance notice by email to active customers and make a final tarball of the template available for self-hosted retrieval.

Nothing in this clause limits non-waivable rights you have under the consumer-protection law of the country in which you reside, including (where applicable) the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015, the EU Digital Content Directive 2019/770, the Australian Consumer Law, Brazil’s Código de Defesa do Consumidor, and equivalent regimes in other jurisdictions.

A5. Refunds

Klaudius is delivered immediately upon purchase. We offer a voluntary 7-day money-back guarantee from the date of purchase — see our Refund Policy for the full terms and process, including what happens to your licence after a refund and how we handle issues raised after the 7-day window. The guarantee is offered in good faith for genuine evaluation; we reserve the right to decline or limit refunds where there is clear evidence of abuse, as set out in that policy.
