Legal
The agreements that govern Heeler, in the same words everywhere they appear. What the application shows you on first launch, what the Help menu opens, and what the website publishes are one text, not three copies of it.
Pages
- End User License Agreement: your license to install and use the application, and what it does and does not promise.
- Terms of Service: the website, downloads, licensing, and support.
- Privacy Policy: what personal information we handle, and what stays on your computer.
- Open source notices: the other people's work Heeler is built on, under what terms, and where to get the source you are entitled to.
- CDDL 1.0: the full text of the license Heeler uses LibRaw under, reproduced because that license asks to travel with the software it covers.
When you agreed
Heeler presents the End User License Agreement the first time you run it, with Agree and Quit. Declining exits without starting, because there is no version of using the application that is not covered by it.
Agreeing writes a receipt beside your other Heeler data, naming the document, its version, the date, and the computer. Nothing about that receipt leaves your machine.
You are asked again only when the agreement itself changes. The version is the agreement's own last-updated date, not the build number, so a new release does not put the document back in front of you unless its words moved.
Beta testers
If you are running a node-locked tester build, the Heeler Beta Test Agreement you accepted when you entered your license file still stands alongside these documents. It is not replaced by them: it carries the confidentiality obligation for unreleased builds and bug reports, which Section 10 of the End User License Agreement expressly leaves to the beta terms.
