Version 1.0 — September 2026

Copyright (c) 2012-2026 Sascha Ludwig, astrastudio.de

All rights reserved.

## 1. Definitions

For the purposes of this License:

**"Software"** means the OnAirScreen software and the portions of the
OnAirScreen source code to which this License is explicitly applied.

**"Source Code"** means the human-readable source code of the Software,
including source files, scripts, configuration files, build files,
documentation, and other files intended to be used to modify or build
the Software.

**"Binary Version"** means any version of the Software, whether modified
or unmodified, that has been compiled, packaged, bundled, or otherwise
transformed into a form intended for execution by a computer without
requiring the recipient to compile the Software from Source Code.

Binary Versions include, without limitation, executable files,
installers, application packages, operating-system packages, container
images, virtual machine images, firmware images, and other precompiled
or executable distributions.

**"Internal Use"** means use of the Software by an individual, or by an
organization for its own internal purposes, including commercial internal
purposes, without providing a Binary Version to a third party.

**"Copyright Holder"** means Sascha Ludwig, astrastudio.de, or any other
person or entity expressly identified as a copyright holder for
particular portions of the Software.

## 2. Copyright

The Software is protected by copyright and other applicable intellectual
property laws.

Except for contributions and third-party components that are subject to
separate license terms, the Copyright Holder retains all rights, title,
and interest in the Software.

## 3. License Grant

Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, the Copyright
Holder grants you a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to:

1. access and use the Source Code;
2. copy the Source Code;
3. modify the Source Code;
4. create derivative works based on the Source Code;
5. distribute the Source Code, whether modified or unmodified; and
6. compile, build, install, execute, and use the Software and modified
   versions of the Software for Internal Use.

The permissions above apply to private, educational, research, and
commercial Internal Use.

No fee is required for the rights granted under this section.

## 4. Source Code Redistribution

You may redistribute the Source Code, whether modified or unmodified,
provided that:

1. each redistribution retains this License;
2. each redistribution retains all applicable copyright notices and
   attribution notices;
3. you clearly identify substantial modifications where reasonably
   practicable; and
4. you do not remove or alter notices identifying the Copyright Holder
   or other applicable copyright holders.

Modified Source Code may be distributed under this License.

You may publish modified versions of the Source Code, including forks
and repositories containing modified versions of the Software.

## 5. Compilation and Internal Use

You are expressly permitted to compile or otherwise build the
Software, including modified versions, for your own use.

You may:

- compile the Software yourself;
- create your own builds;
- create customized builds;
- install your own builds on computers and systems under your control;
- use your own builds for commercial purposes;
- deploy your own builds within your organization; and
- allow employees and contractors acting solely on your behalf to use
  such builds for your Internal Use.

The creation, installation, execution, or use of a Binary Version for
Internal Use does not constitute redistribution and is expressly
permitted by this License.

## 6. Restriction on Binary Redistribution

You may NOT redistribute, publish, sell, rent, lease, sublicense,
transfer, or otherwise make available to any third party any Binary
Version of the Software without prior written permission from the
Copyright Holder.

This restriction applies regardless of whether the Binary Version is:

1. modified or unmodified;
2. provided free of charge or for payment;
3. distributed publicly or privately;
4. distributed individually or as part of another product or package; or
5. distributed by download, physical media, network transfer, container
   registry, package repository, application store, or any other means.

For the avoidance of doubt, the following activities require prior written
permission from the Copyright Holder:

- publishing a compiled version on a website;
- publishing a release containing compiled versions on GitHub or
  another code-hosting platform;
- distributing an installer;
- distributing an operating-system package;
- publishing a Docker or other container image containing the Software;
- including a compiled version in another software product;
- providing a compiled version to customers, clients, partners, or
  other third parties; and
- selling or giving away a compiled version of the Software.

For the avoidance of doubt, merely compiling, building, installing,
executing, or using the Software does not constitute redistribution.

## 7. Official Binary Versions

The Copyright Holder may create, publish, license, sell, and otherwise
distribute official Binary Versions of the Software.

The Copyright Holder may charge fees for official Binary Versions and may
determine the terms under which such Binary Versions are provided.

Nothing in this License grants any third party the right to redistribute
an official Binary Version.

## 8. Written Permission for Binary Distribution

The Copyright Holder may, at its sole discretion, grant written
permission to distribute Binary Versions.

Such permission may be:

- limited to a particular person or organization;
- limited to a particular version;
- limited to a particular number of copies;
- limited to a particular distribution channel;
- limited in time; or
- subject to additional terms or fees.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing, permission to distribute
one Binary Version does not constitute permission to distribute other
versions.

## 9. No Trademark License

This License does not grant any rights to use the names "OnAirScreen",
"Sascha Ludwig", "astrastudio.de", or any associated trademarks, logos,
product names, or branding, except as necessary to accurately identify
the Software and comply with this License.

Modified versions should not be presented as official releases of
OnAirScreen.

## 10. Third-Party Software and Contributions

This License applies only to portions of the Software for which the
Copyright Holder has the necessary rights to grant the permissions
contained herein.

Third-party software, libraries, assets, and contributions may be subject
to separate copyright and license terms.

Nothing in this License is intended to replace, restrict, or supersede
a separate license applicable to a third-party component.

Where required, the applicable third-party license terms must be retained
and complied with.

Third-party components shipped with OnAirScreen are documented in
THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.md.

## 11. No Additional Restrictions on Source Code

The Copyright Holder does not require payment, royalties, or
registration for the rights granted to the Source Code under this
License.

You may fork the project and maintain your own modified version of the
Source Code.

However, the restriction in Section 6 continues to apply to Binary
Versions derived from the Source Code.

## 12. Contributions

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, any contribution submitted specifically
for inclusion in the Software is provided to the Copyright Holder under
terms that permit the Copyright Holder to use, modify, reproduce,
distribute, and sublicense the contribution as part of the Software
under this License.

Contributors retain ownership of their original copyright in their
contributions unless they expressly transfer that ownership.

The Copyright Holder may request separate written confirmation of these
rights from individual contributors.

## 13. Compliance with Applicable Law

Nothing in this License is intended to prohibit or restrict any use that
cannot legally be prohibited or restricted under applicable law.

In particular, mandatory statutory rights and exceptions applicable to
computer programs remain unaffected.

## 14. Termination

This License and the rights granted under it terminate automatically if you
materially violate its terms.

Rights that have already been validly exercised before termination remain
subject to this License to the extent permitted by applicable law.

The Copyright Holder may, at its discretion, reinstate the rights granted
by this License if the violation is remedied.

## 15. Disclaimer of Warranty

THE SOFTWARE AND SOURCE CODE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF
ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER
DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF

NON-INFRINGEMENT.

THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE
ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

## 16. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER
SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL,
EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS,
REVENUE, BUSINESS, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION ARISING OUT OF OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THIS LICENSE.

NOTHING IN THIS LICENSE EXCLUDES OR LIMITS LIABILITY TO THE EXTENT
THAT SUCH LIABILITY CANNOT LAWFULLY BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED.

## 17. No Obligation to Provide Support

Nothing in this License creates an obligation for the Copyright Holder
to provide support, maintenance, updates, bug fixes, security fixes, or
future versions of the Software.

## 18. No Obligation to Continue Distribution

The Copyright Holder may discontinue, suspend, or change the
distribution of official Binary Versions of the Software at any time.

## 19. Entire License

This License constitutes the complete terms governing the rights
granted by the Copyright Holder with respect to the Software, except
where separate license terms expressly apply to particular components.

If any provision of this License is held to be invalid or unenforceable,
the remaining provisions shall remain in effect to the extent permitted
by applicable law.
