Terms of Use

The legal fine print.

Effective date: 9 July 2026 · Version 1.0

These Terms govern your use of the gnosys.ai website and clarify the terms under which the Gnosys open-source software is made available. They are an agreement between you and JAMAEDGE Group LLC (dba Proticom), 16835 Algonquin St, Suite 205, Huntington Beach, CA 92649, USA ("we," "us").

1. The software is MIT-licensed

The Gnosys software is open source under the MIT License. Your rights to use, copy, modify, and redistribute the code come from that license, not from these Terms; where these Terms and the MIT License conflict regarding the code, the MIT License controls. The license text ships in the repository and with every npm release.

2. What we provide (and don't)

  • The website provides documentation and downloads pointers. The software runs on your own machine; we operate no service, hold no account for you, and store none of your data (see the Privacy Policy).
  • Optional AI features operate under your own agreements with the AI providers you configure. You are responsible for your use of those providers, including the content you send them and any costs.
  • A separately contracted Gnosys Enterprise offering, where we do host infrastructure, is governed by its own agreement — not these Terms.

3. Beta disclaimer

Gnosys and this site are provided during an active development period ("beta"). Features may change, break, or be removed without notice. Back up your local database (~/.gnosys/) — because we never possess your data, we can never recover it for you.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the website or software to: (a) violate any applicable law; (b) infringe others' rights, including privacy and intellectual-property rights (e.g., crawling sites with the Web Knowledge Base in breach of their terms or applicable law); (c) attempt to disrupt the website, the repository, or the npm distribution channel; (d) misrepresent Gnosys output as human-authored where the law requires AI-transparency disclosures; or (e) develop or deploy the software for uses prohibited under applicable AI regulation (including EU AI Act prohibited practices).

You are the controller of data you store in Gnosys and the operator of any deployment you run; compliance with data-protection law for your own use — including any obligations to your own users — is your responsibility.

5. No warranty

THE WEBSITE AND SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy of AI-assisted output, and uninterrupted or error-free operation. AI-generated or AI-organized content can be wrong; verify before relying on it.

6. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR BUSINESS, ARISING FROM THE WEBSITE OR SOFTWARE. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED US $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE ITEM GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM (WHICH, FOR THE FREE OSS PRODUCT, IS ZERO), WHICHEVER IS GREATER. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; where a limitation is not permitted, it applies to the fullest extent permitted. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

7. Digital Services Act note

We do not operate an online platform or host user-generated content on gnosys.ai; the site is static documentation. Reports about content in the GitHub repository (e.g., alleged illegal content in issues or contributions) can be sent to legal@gnosys.ai or raised through GitHub's own DSA-compliant reporting channels, and we will act on valid notices without undue delay.

8. Intellectual property

"Gnosys," the logo, and site content are ours or our licensors'; the code is yours to use under the MIT License. Documentation on this site may be reproduced with attribution.

9. Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules. Exclusive venue for disputes is the state and federal courts located in Orange County, California, and each party consents to their jurisdiction. If you are a consumer in a jurisdiction whose law grants you non-waivable rights or home-court venue, nothing here removes those rights.

10. Changes; contact

We may update these Terms by posting a new version here with a new effective date. Continued use after changes means acceptance. Questions: legal@gnosys.ai.
