StarlyCode Studio License Terms

These license terms are an agreement between you and Gianluca Grasso, independent developer who publishes software under the name Starlyware (“Starlyware”, “we”). They apply to StarlyCode Studio, to its updates and to the files that come with it, unless an update comes with different terms.

By installing or using the software you accept these terms. If you don't accept them, don't install or use the software.

1. What you can do

Starlyware gives you a free, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to install and use any number of copies of the software on your devices, for personal, educational and professional purposes. You may use it to develop, test and publish websites and web applications, also for clients.

2. Your code belongs to you

Starlyware claims no rights on the source code, projects, images or other content you create or open with the software. You are responsible for your content and for having the rights to use the files you work on.

You may freely write articles, make videos and tutorials, publish screenshots and talk about the software, also on channels that earn money.

3. What you cannot do

Unless applicable law expressly allows it, you may not:

  • sell, rent, lend or sublicense the software, or ask for payment for it;
  • distribute modified copies of the software, or redistribute the installer through other channels without written permission from Starlyware (sharing a link to the official page or to the Microsoft Store is always allowed);
  • decompile, disassemble or reverse engineer the software, except in the cases and limits allowed by law (for example to achieve interoperability);
  • remove or change the copyright notices and license notices in the software;
  • use the software to break the law or to violate the rights of others.

4. Third-party components

The software includes components made by others, each under its own license, which also applies to you:

  • Html Agility Pack 1.11.46 (MIT License, © ZZZ Projects Inc. and contributors);
  • NUglify 1.20.7 (BSD 2-Clause License, © Alexandre Mutel and contributors; parts derived from Microsoft Ajax Minifier, Apache License 2.0);
  • Microsoft .NET, Windows SDK for .NET and C#/WinRT runtime components (© Microsoft Corporation, under their license terms).

Nothing in these terms limits the rights that those licenses give you.

5. Data and privacy

The software works offline. It doesn't require an account, shows no ads and doesn't send telemetry. Your projects and your settings, including the name, organization and country you may enter at the first start, are saved only on your computer.

When it checks for updates, the software connects to www.starlyware.com to read the number of the latest version and, if you accept, to download the new installer. Details are in the StarlyCode Studio privacy policy.

6. Updates

Starlyware may publish updates, but is not required to. Updates may come with new license terms, which you accept by installing them. You can keep using the version you have under the terms that came with it.

7. Support and feedback

You can ask for help or report a problem through the bug report page or by writing to info@starlyware.com. Support is offered free of charge and without guaranteed response times.

If you send us suggestions or ideas, we may use them to improve our products, without any obligation towards you.

8. No warranty

The software is provided free of charge, “as is”. To the extent permitted by law, Starlyware gives no warranty that the software is free of errors, that it will work without interruptions or that it is suitable for a particular purpose. Keep backups of your work.

9. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Starlyware is not liable for indirect or consequential damages, loss of data, loss of profits or interruption of work arising from the use of, or the inability to use, the software.

This limitation doesn't apply in cases of willful misconduct or gross negligence, or where the law doesn't allow liability to be limited.

10. Your rights as a consumer

These terms don't limit the rights that you have as a consumer under the law of your country and that cannot be waived by contract.

11. End of the license

You can stop using the software at any time by uninstalling it. If you seriously breach these terms, the license ends automatically and you must uninstall the software. Sections 2, 4, 8, 9 and 12 remain valid after the end of the license.

12. Applicable law and court

These terms are governed by Italian law. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory rules of the country where you live, and you may bring a dispute before the court of the place where you live. In all other cases the court of Chieti, Italy, has jurisdiction.

13. Entire agreement and languages

These terms are the entire agreement between you and Starlyware about the software. They are available in English and in Italian; if the two versions differ, the Italian version prevails.
