SellMyCode.net is a platform that facilitates the buying and selling of source code. These Licenses Terms outline the rules and conditions governing the licensing of source code purchased or sold through our platform. By listing, selling, or purchasing source code on SellMyCode.net, you agree to comply with these terms, in addition to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
1. Definitions
Source Code: The software code, scripts, or related digital assets listed for sale on SellMyCode.net, including any documentation or materials provided by the seller.
Seller: The individual or entity listing source code for sale on the platform.
Buyer: The individual or entity purchasing source code through the platform.
License: The legal permissions and restrictions granted by the seller to the buyer for the use of the source code.
2. Licensing Framework
Source code on SellMyCode.net is sold under specific licenses defined by the seller. The license terms for each source code listing are clearly specified in the listing description. Buyers must review and agree to these terms before completing a purchase. SellMyCode.net supports the following common license types, though sellers may offer custom licenses:
2.1. Standard License
Usage: Grants the buyer the right to use, modify, and integrate the source code into one (1) single project or end product for personal or commercial use.
Distribution: The buyer may not redistribute or resell the source code as a standalone product or in a manner that competes with the original seller.
Ownership: The seller retains ownership of the source code, and the buyer receives a non-exclusive license to use it.
Modifications: The buyer may modify the source code for their project, provided they comply with the license terms.
2.2. Extended License
Usage: Grants the buyer the right to use, modify, and integrate the source code into multiple projects or end products for personal or commercial use.
Distribution: The buyer may include the source code in products for resale (e.g., as part of an app or template), provided the code is not distributed in a way that allows others to extract and reuse it independently.
Ownership: The seller retains ownership, and the buyer receives a non-exclusive license.
Modifications: The buyer may modify the source code as needed, subject to license restrictions.
2.3. Open-Source License
Usage: If the source code is licensed under an open-source license (e.g., MIT, Apache, GPL), the buyer must comply with the terms of that specific license.
Distribution: Buyers must adhere to the open-source license’s requirements, such as making derivative works available under the same license (e.g., for GPL).
Ownership: Ownership and attribution requirements vary by open-source license.
2.4. Custom License
Sellers may define custom license terms, which must be clearly stated in the listing. Buyers are responsible for reviewing and agreeing to these terms before purchase.
SellMyCode.net is not responsible for enforcing or interpreting custom licenses but requires sellers to provide clear and lawful terms.
3. Seller Responsibilities
Sellers listing source code on SellMyCode.net agree to:
Ownership and Rights: Warrant that they own or have the legal right to license the source code and that it does not infringe on third-party intellectual property rights.
Clear License Terms: Provide accurate and detailed license terms in the listing description, specifying permitted uses, restrictions, and any additional conditions.
Compliance: Ensure the source code complies with applicable laws and does not contain malicious code, viruses, or harmful components.
Documentation: Include sufficient documentation or instructions to enable buyers to use the source code as intended.
4. Buyer Responsibilities
Buyers purchasing source code on SellMyCode.net agree to:
Review License Terms: Read and understand the license terms specified in the listing before purchasing.
Compliance: Use the source code strictly in accordance with the license terms provided by the seller.
No Unauthorized Use: Not redistribute, resell, or use the source code in a manner that violates the license or competes with the seller’s original offering, unless explicitly permitted.
Verification: Verify that the source code meets their technical and functional requirements before purchase, as refunds are limited (see our Refund Policy).
5. Intellectual Property
Seller Ownership: Unless otherwise specified in the license, the seller retains all intellectual property rights to the source code. Buyers receive only the rights explicitly granted by the license.
Third-Party Components: If the source code includes third-party components (e.g., libraries, frameworks), the buyer must comply with the licenses governing those components.
Infringement: SellMyCode.net is not liable for any intellectual property disputes arising from the use or sale of source code. Sellers and buyers are responsible for resolving such disputes.
6. Platform Role
Facilitator: SellMyCode.net acts as a marketplace facilitating transactions between sellers and buyers. We do not own, create, or license the source code listed on the platform.
Verification: We review source code submissions for quality and compliance but do not guarantee the functionality, suitability, or legality of any source code.
Disputes: In case of disputes regarding license terms or usage, SellMyCode.net may mediate but is not responsible for enforcing license agreements. Buyers and sellers are encouraged to resolve disputes directly.
7. Prohibited Actions
Both sellers and buyers agree not to:
Misrepresent the ownership or functionality of source code.
Use, sell, or distribute source code in violation of its license terms.
Include or distribute malicious code, viruses, or components that infringe on third-party rights.
Attempt to reverse-engineer or bypass license restrictions.
8. Termination of License
The license granted to a buyer may be terminated if they violate the license terms or these Licenses Terms.
Upon termination, the buyer must cease using the source code and destroy any copies in their possession, unless otherwise specified in the license.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, SellMyCode.net is not liable for any damages arising from the use, sale, or licensing of source code, including but not limited to intellectual property disputes, loss of data, or business losses. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount paid by you to us in the preceding 12 months.
