Version 1.1 · 2026-09-24
This agreement is between you and Lay Sheth (the “Licensor”) and covers the compiled plottypus program and its documentation (the “Software”) as distributed by the Licensor, for example through GitHub releases or the Homebrew tap. By installing or running the Software you accept these terms.
1. Free tier#
The Licensor grants you a free, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and run the free tier of the Software on any number of computers you own or control, for personal or commercial use.
2. Pro tier#
Features marked pro require a valid Pro license file issued by the Licensor. A Pro license is:
- personal: it may be used by one named individual;
- per device: on up to three computers that individual owns or uses;
- perpetual for the major version it was bought for (for example 1.x), including every update within that major version.
The license file is verified offline. The Software does not send your license, usage data or any telemetry anywhere.
3. Restrictions#
You may not:
- redistribute, sell, rent, lease or sublicense the Software or a license file;
- remove, bypass or tamper with license verification;
- reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Software, except where applicable law expressly permits it despite this restriction;
- remove copyright or proprietary notices.
4. Privacy#
The Software reads system metrics locally. It does not use the network, does not collect telemetry, and does not require administrator privileges.
5. Third-party software#
The Software includes open-source components licensed under their own terms (for example MIT and Apache-2.0). Their notices ship with every release in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.
6. Refunds#
Pro purchases can be refunded within 14 days of purchase through the store you bought from.
7. No warranty#
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. The Software reports readings from undocumented hardware interfaces. Readings can be unavailable or inaccurate on some machines and operating system versions.
8. Limitation of liability#
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE LICENSOR IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS OR REVENUE. THE LICENSOR’S TOTAL LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM.
9. Termination#
This agreement ends automatically if you breach it. When it ends you must stop using the Software and delete every copy.
10. Governing law#
This agreement is governed by the laws of India. The courts of India have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from it, unless the law of your country gives you a right to bring a claim where you live.
11. Trademarks#
