Source and licences

Mera publishes source so you can check what it does. Publishing source doesn't give you rights to reuse it, and the terms differ by repository. The app and the gateway are owned by Mera Labs B.V.

Mera app

The app uses the Mera Source-Available License 1.0, in LICENSE.md. It lets you read and check the code, and it doesn't permit commercial use.

You may:

• Read the code
• Download, copy and compile it locally
• Run it for personal study, security review, auditing and evaluation

You may not:

• Use it commercially or in production
• Distribute, publish or sell it
• Modify it, except to prepare a contribution
• Host or operate it, or a service derived from it, for others

The licence text is the authority. This list is a guide to it.

Inference gateway

The repository is public, so you can read how the gateway handles a request. Its licence file reads "proprietary and confidential" and grants no rights to use, copy or modify the code.

News server

The server is private. That means you can't inspect how it handles topic text or the rest of what these pages say about it. You can inspect what the app sends, because the app decides what's transmitted in the first place.

Mera plans to restructure its services so that every component handling user data is published as source. That isn't done yet. Even then, publishing code wouldn't prove which code a server is running.

Security review

Mera hasn't yet commissioned an independent security assessment. One is planned, and Mera will publish its scope and date once it's done. Until then, the assurances here rest on Mera's own controls and on the published app source.

Trademarks

The app's source licence doesn't cover the Mera name or logo. See TRADEMARK.md in the app repository.

Third-party software

The app and gateway depend on third-party packages under their own licences. The relevant notices are in each repository.
