ExpressionEngine License Agreement
==================================
This license is a legal agreement between you and EllisLab, Inc. for the use of ExpressionEngine (all versions) Software (the “Software”). By downloading any version of ExpressionEngine or any ExpressionEngine Add-ons you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this license. EllisLab, Inc. reserves the right to alter this agreement at any time, for any reason, without notice.
Revised on: 29 September, 2015
ExpressionEngine Installations
------------------------------
An ExpressionEngine license purchase allows a single “live” installation in a production environment and ancillary “development use only” installations as needed to support the live installation (such as development and a staging servers). Additional installations require additional license purchases. If you have specific installation needs not covered by this license, please contact us (http://ellislab.com/about).
Permitted Use
-------------
* Core License: Users of the Core License may use the Software ONLY on a website engaging in personal, non-commercial activities. Non-profit companies MAY NOT use the Core License.
* Standard License: Users of the Standard purchased ExpressionEngine License may use the Software on a website engaging in commercial, personal, non-commercial, or non-profit activities. Websites engaging in direct or indirect commercial activities must purchase a Standard License.
Each installation may be used to power a single website. Using ExpressionEngine to run multiple sites requires a multi-site license, and all such sites must be wholly owned by the licensee.
EllisLab, Inc. will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes commercial activities.
Restrictions
------------
Unless you have been granted prior, written consent from EllisLab, Inc., YOU MAY NOT:
* Use the Core License for any client or contract work.
* Use the Software as the basis of a hosted blogging service, or to provide hosting services to others.
* Reproduce, distribute, or transfer the Software, or portions thereof, to any third party.
* Modify, tamper with, bypass, or in any way impede license registration routines in the Software.
* Sell, rent, lease, assign, or sublet the Software or portions thereof, including sites in your multi-site license.
* Grant rights to any other person.
* Use the Software in violation of any U.S. or international law or regulation.
Display of Copyright Notices
----------------------------
All copyright and proprietary notices and logos in the Control Panel and within the Software files must remain intact.
Giving Credit
-------------
Core License Users are required to display a “powered by ExpressionEngine” link or graphic on their publicly accessible site, pointing to https://ellislab.com/expressionengine. Users of a purchased Standard license are exempt from this requirement.
Making Copies

Except as forbidden by this license agreement, you may alter, modify, or extend the Software for your own use, or commission a third-party to perform modifications for you, but you may not resell, redistribute or transfer the modified or derivative version without prior written consent from EllisLab, Inc. Components from the Software may not be extracted and used in other programs without prior written consent from EllisLab, Inc.
Technical Support
