These licence terms govern the use of the Okeanos software. By installing it, activating it or starting a trial, the licensee agrees to them. The purchase of licences is also governed by the licensor's terms of sale (AGB); if they conflict, the terms of sale prevail.

1. Subject matter

(1) Okeanos is software for managing remote connections (including SSH, RDP, VNC and SFTP) and servers, together with its documentation, updates and the licensor's plugins (together the "Software").

(2) The Software is intended exclusively for businesses within the meaning of § 1 of the Austrian Consumer Protection Act (KSchG) and § 1 of the Commercial Code (UGB). The licensee is the business for which the licence was acquired.

(3) The Software is licensed, not sold. All rights in the Software not expressly granted remain with the licensor.

2. Right of use

(1) The licensor grants the licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable right to use the Software within the scope of the licence acquired for its own business purposes, namely:

• perpetual licence: without time limit, for all versions released until the end of the update period;
• subscription: for the paid term plus the grace period;
• trial: for the trial period, for evaluation only.

(2) Each seat acquired entitles the licensee to use the Software on one computer. The number of computers activated at the same time must not exceed the number of seats. Employees and contractors working for the licensee may use the Software for the licensee within these seats.

(3) The licensee may make backup copies of the Software as far as they are needed for its operation.

(4) Passing on, renting, lending, transferring or sublicensing the Software or a licence key to third parties requires the licensor's prior written consent. The licensor will not withhold consent to the transfer of a perpetual licence to a legal successor, for example when a business is transferred, without good reason.

3. Restrictions

(1) The licensee must not modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Software, except where § 40e of the Austrian Copyright Act (UrhG) mandatorily permits this to achieve interoperability with other programs and the information needed is not available from the licensor on request.

(2) The licensee must not circumvent, remove or alter the licence check, activation, signature checks or other protection mechanisms, and must not remove any copyright, trademark or licence notices.

(3) The Software must not be used for unlawful purposes, in particular not to access computers and systems the licensee is not authorised to access.

4. Activation and licence checks

(1) The Software is activated with the licence key. For this it sends the licence key, a salted hash of the device ID and the computer name to the licensor; the device ID itself never leaves the computer. Computers without internet access can be activated offline through the customer portal.

(2) Subscriptions and trials check the licence online at regular intervals. Unless turned off, the Software also checks for updates once a day and sends the version, channel, operating system, package format and licence ID.

(3) Updates are installed only if their signature matches the licensor's release key.

(4) Details of the data processing are in the privacy policy at https://okeanos.tools/datenschutz/. The Software never sends connections, credentials, vault contents, terminal contents or data of the managed servers to the licensor.

5. Actions on the licensee's systems

(1) The Software runs commands, scripts, file transfers, updates and other actions on computers and servers only when the licensee or its users trigger or approve them. This also applies to actions suggested by a plugin or an AI service.

(2) The licensee is responsible for these actions and their consequences. It checks them before approving them, uses the Software only on systems it is authorised to use, and backs up its data and systems regularly.

6. Third-party plugins and services, in particular AI

(1) The Software can be extended with plugins. A plugin receives only the permissions the licensee grants; it never receives passwords, keys or other secrets. Third-party plugins are not provided by the licensor; their providers' terms apply to them.

(2) The "Okeanos AI" plugin connects the Software to an AI service chosen by the licensee (for example Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Mistral or a model run locally). The data goes directly from the licensee's computer to that provider, never through the licensor's servers. The licensee uses its own API keys, bears the costs and is responsible for complying with the provider's terms and privacy rules, including the question of which data it may send to the provider.

(3) Answers from AI services can be wrong or incomplete. The licensor gives no warranty for the content, availability or results of third-party services.

(4) The Software's local MCP interface can only be reached on the licensee's computer and is protected by a key; it is subject to the same permissions and approvals as plugins.

7. Open-source components and Slint

(1) The Software contains third-party components licensed under open-source licences. Only their respective licences apply to these components; they are listed with their licence texts in the file THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt installed with the Software. This EULA does not restrict the rights under those licences.

(2) The user interface is built with Slint (https://slint.dev) and used under the royalty-free Slint licence. The "Made with Slint" notice in the Software must not be removed.

8. Warranty and liability

Warranty and liability are governed by the licensor's terms of sale. For trials and free plugins, warranty and liability are excluded, except for intent, gross negligence and personal injury.

9. End of the licence

(1) The right of use ends when a subscription or trial expires, when the fee is refunded or upon justified termination.

(2) The licensor may suspend or terminate the licence for good cause, in particular for material breaches of these terms, such as use beyond the seats acquired, passing on the licence key or circumventing the licence check, if the breach does not stop within 14 days of a request to do so.

(3) When the right of use ends, the licensee stops using the Software. Its own data (connections, vault, settings) stays on its devices and can still be exported.

10. Export control and sanctions

The Software contains encryption functions. The licensee complies with the applicable export control and sanctions rules, in particular those of the European Union and Austria, when using, exporting and passing on the Software, and does not use it in, from or for countries, persons or purposes subject to such restrictions.

11. Final provisions

(1) Austrian law applies, excluding its conflict-of-law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). The place of jurisdiction is the competent court for 8160 Weiz, Austria.

(2) If a provision is invalid, the others remain valid; it is replaced by a valid provision that comes closest to its economic purpose.

(3) The German version of these terms is binding; the English version is a translation.

These terms ship with the software as text files (EULA-de.txt, EULA-en.txt).
