### Statamic isn’t FOSS

Statamic is not Free Open Source Software. It is **proprietary**. Everything in this and our other repos on Github — including community-contributed codeis the property of Wilderborn. For that reason there are a few limitations on how you can use the code:
While Statamic's source code is open source, publicly available, and can be [used for free](https://statamic.dev/licensing#solo-vs-pro) in many cases, it is proprietary. Everything in this repo, including any community-contributed code, is the property of Statamic LLC. For that reason there are a few limitations on how you can use the code:

- You cannot redistribute or use Statamic as a dependency in another project — open source or otherwise — without prior permission or licensing.
- You cannot alter anything related to licensing, updating, version/edition checking, or anything else that would circumvent our business model. We want to stay in business so we can support _you_ better.
- You cannot alter anything related to licensing, updating, version or edition checking, purchasing, first party notifications or banners, or anything else that attempts to circumvent paying for features that are designated as Statamic Pro features. We want to stay in business so we can better support _you_ and the community.
- You can’t publicly maintain a long-term fork of Statamic.
