Software License
The kanros CLI, GitHub Action, VS Code extension and SDKs are proprietary software provided free of charge under the license below. The hosted Kanros Cloud platform is governed by the Terms of Service. Every release archive also ships THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES with the licenses of the open-source components kanros includes.
Releases up to and including v0.1.0-rc.3 were distributed under Apache-2.0 OR MIT; copies of those releases keep those terms.
KANROS SOFTWARE LICENSE
Copyright (c) 2026 CC Conceptualise GmbH, Kolonnenstraße 8, 10827 Berlin,
Germany ("Licensor"). All rights reserved.
This license governs the kanros software: the `kanros` command-line
binary, the GitHub Action image, the VS Code extension, the client SDKs,
and their documentation (together, the "Software"). The Software is
proprietary. It is not open source.
1. GRANT. Subject to this license, Licensor grants you a free of charge,
non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license
to install and use the Software, in object code form, for personal and
for internal business purposes, including in continuous-integration
systems you or your organisation operate.
2. RESTRICTIONS. Except as expressly permitted by mandatory law (including
§§ 69d and 69e of the German Copyright Act, UrhG), you may not:
(a) copy the Software, except as needed for the use permitted in
Section 1 and for backup purposes;
(b) sell, rent, lease, sublicense, or otherwise distribute the Software
to third parties, or offer it to third parties as a hosted or
managed service;
(c) modify, translate, decompile, disassemble, or reverse-engineer the
Software, or create derivative works of it;
(d) remove or alter any proprietary notices, labels, or license texts.
3. KANROS CLOUD. Use of the hosted Kanros Cloud platform is governed by
the separate Kanros Cloud Terms of Service (https://kanros.dev/terms),
not by this license.
4. THIRD-PARTY COMPONENTS. The Software includes third-party open-source
components. They are licensed to you under their own licenses, which
are reproduced in the THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES file shipped with the
Software. Nothing in this license limits your rights under those
licenses.
5. OWNERSHIP AND FEEDBACK. Licensor retains all rights, title, and
interest in the Software. If you send suggestions or feedback, Licensor
may use them without obligation to you.
6. NO WARRANTY. The Software is provided free of charge. To the extent
permitted by law, it is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind,
express or implied.
7. LIABILITY. Licensor is liable without limitation for intent and gross
negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and under the German
Product Liability Act. For slight negligence, Licensor is liable only
for breach of an essential contractual obligation (Kardinalpflicht),
limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract.
Any further liability is excluded. Because the Software is provided
free of charge, Licensor's liability is in any case limited to intent
and gross negligence to the extent permitted by §§ 521, 599 BGB.
8. TERMINATION. This license terminates automatically if you breach it.
On termination you must stop using the Software and delete all copies.
Sections 4 to 9 survive termination.
9. GOVERNING LAW. This license is governed by the laws of the Federal
Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods. If you are a merchant (Kaufmann), the
exclusive place of jurisdiction is Berlin, Germany. Mandatory consumer
protection laws of your country of residence remain unaffected.
