Licensing

The Basics

1. When you purchase a license, you receive a non-exclusive, worldwide right to use the Theme (the “Item”) under the terms below. This license grants usage rights — it does not transfer ownership.
2. A Regular License allows you to use the Theme for one single End Product (a finished website or application), hosted on one domain or subdomain.
   • Example: example.com is allowed.
   • Example: client.example.com is allowed.
   • Not allowed: using the same license for both example.com and client.example.com if they are separate projects.
   • Not allowed: using the same license for example.com and example2.com. That requires two licenses.
3. An End Product means a completed website or application that incorporates and customizes the Theme. Simply installing the Theme without customization is not considered an End Product.

What You Can Do

1. You may create one End Product for yourself or for one client. If for a client, you may transfer the End Product (and the license) to them for any fee.
2. You may make unlimited copies of the End Product for deployment, hosting, or backup purposes, provided they all relate to the same licensed domain/subdomain.
3. Development and staging environments are allowed. You may install the Theme on temporary or non-public sites (e.g. staging.example.com, dev.example.com, localhost) as long as they exist only to support the licensed End Product.
4. You may modify, adapt, or extend the Theme as needed for your End Product. You may combine it with other works. Any derivative works remain subject to these license terms.

What You Cannot Do

1. You cannot use one license for multiple domains or subdomains if they represent separate projects. Each separate website requires its own license.
2. You cannot resell, redistribute, or make the Theme available “as-is” (even with superficial modifications), whether free or paid. This includes bundling it with other templates, starter kits, or libraries.
3. You cannot use the Theme in any kind of “build-it-yourself” product, such as website builders, SaaS platforms, or on-demand applications, unless you purchase a separate license for each End Product generated.
4. You cannot extract individual components (such as Single Directory Components, or custom CSS) from the Theme and use them independently outside the licensed End Product.

Split Licensing and Third-Party Assets

1. Drupal themes use a split license model:
2. GPL (open source): All PHP, Twig, and other code that directly integrates with Drupal is licensed under the GNU General Public License. You may freely use, modify, and redistribute this portion under GPL terms.
3. Commercial license: All other parts of the Theme (CSS not marked as GPL, JavaScript not marked as GPL, Single Directory Components, documentation, etc.) are licensed under these commercial terms. These may not be redistributed outside your licensed End Product.
4. Some themes may include third-party assets (for example, open-source libraries or Creative Commons images). When present, these will be clearly identified in the Theme’s files, and those third-party licenses apply to those specific assets.

Other Important Terms

1. You may only use the Theme for lawful purposes. You cannot use it in a defamatory, obscene, misleading, or harmful way.
2. Any logos, trademarks, or likenesses included in the Theme are for demonstration purposes only. You are responsible for securing clearance for commercial use.
3. This license terminates automatically if you breach its terms. If that happens, you must stop distributing the End Product until the Theme is removed.
4. The Theme author (Dripyard) retains full ownership of the Theme. Your purchase grants you a license, not ownership of the Theme itself.

Support and Updates

• A license purchase includes theme updates and support for the period stated at checkout (typically two months).
• You may renew support separately after this period.
• Updates released during your active license/support period are included at no extra cost.

In summary: One license = one project = one domain/subdomain. Development and staging sites are fine. GPL applies to Drupal-required code, while everything else is covered by our commercial license.
