End User License Agreement (EULA)

Last updated: March 15, 2026

1. Preamble

This agreement defines the rights and use limitations of commercial software licenses. By purchasing a license, you accept the terms of this agreement.

Scope: This EULA applies to commercial software licenses unlocking premium features (e.g. Mosaic Pro for the Piwigo Mosaic plugin, or other licensed products).

Important:

  • Open-source plugins (free code) are under GNU GPL v2 license
  • Premium license keys (access to locked features) are subject to commercial terms below
  • These two licenses are complementary, not contradictory
  • For custom service offerings, see T&C – Section B

2. Rights Granted

Purchase of a license key grants you the personal, non-exclusive right to:

  • Use the software or plugin with the license activated
  • Access premium features unlocked by your key
  • Receive software updates (duration per your plan)
  • Obtain technical support under your contract terms

3. License Types

Plans and pricing vary by product. See your purchase page for specific details. Here are the general models offered:

3.1 Annual License

  • Duration: 1 year from purchase date
  • Renewal: Automatic or manual, per your choice
  • At expiration: Software reverts to free or limited mode
  • Updates: Included for 1 year

3.2 Perpetual License

  • Duration: Unlimited — No expiration
  • Renewal: N/A — One-time payment
  • Updates: Unlimited in perpetuity

4. Use Restrictions

You may not:

  • Transfer the key: The key is personal and non-transferable (linked to domain or user)
  • Resell or rent: Resale, rental or exchange of the key is strictly prohibited
  • Multi-site: Each site/domain/instance requires its own license
  • Reverse-engineer: Any decompilation, disassembly or modification of verification code is prohibited
  • Bypass checks: Bypassing or disabling the validation system is prohibited
  • Share the key: Sharing your key with other users is prohibited
  • Unauthorized access: Accessing accounts, APIs or resources without authorization

5. Intellectual Property

Open-source code:

  • Software or plugin (source code) is distributed under GNU GPL v2 or equivalent license
  • You may view, modify and distribute code per its license
  • See product GitHub repository for details

License Key and Verification System:

  • License key is generated from proprietary algorithms (encryption, HMAC)
  • Verification system is protected against reverse-engineering (obfuscation, security hardening)
  • You may not modify or bypass verification mechanisms

6. Limitation of Liability

Plugin and license key are provided "as is" without any warranties.

We are not responsible for:

  • Data loss or damage caused by plugin use
  • Incompatibilities with certain Piwigo or PHP versions
  • Business interruption related to the plugin
  • Third-party modifications to your Piwigo installation
  • License verification server unavailability (local cached verification available)

Maximum liability: Refund of purchased key (€6 or €11).

7. License Verification

Your license key is verified in two ways:

  • Server validation: Optional verification with remote server (better security)
  • Local validation: Offline verification for 7 days if server unavailable

No tracking: Verifications only transmit your domain and key, never your personal data.

8. License End

8.1 Natural Expiration (Annual License)

  • License automatically expires after 1 year
  • You'll receive warning 30 days before expiration
  • Plugin reverts to free mode (without premium admin panel)

8.2 Termination by You

  • You may disable or uninstall the plugin anytime
  • No penalties apply

8.3 Termination by Us

We may revoke your license in case of:

  • Fraud or bypassing verification system
  • Flagrant non-compliance with use terms
  • Intellectual property violation detected in your use

Notice: We will email you before any action.

9. Support and Assistance

  • Email support: contact@julien-moreau.fr
  • Response time: Within 48 hours (best effort)
  • Coverage: Installation, configuration, bug questions

Note: Support for custom code modifications is not included.

10. Updates

Annual license: Updates included for 12 months. After expiration, you may continue using the acquired version, but without access to future updates.

Perpetual license: Unlimited updates in perpetuity.

11. Legal Compliance

French law: This agreement is governed by French law.

Dual license:

  • Source code: GNU GPL v2 (compatible with Piwigo)

These two licenses are not contradictory. GPL applies to source code, this EULA to the commercial license key.
