## 4. Restrictions — What You May NOT Do

### 4.1 No Competing Boilerplate or Template
Use, adapt, modify, or derive from the Software — in whole or in part — to create, sell, license, distribute, or otherwise make available any **boilerplate, starter kit, template, scaffold, code kit, or similar foundational product** that is sold or provided to third parties for use in their own development projects. This restriction applies regardless of how substantially the Software has been modified.

Share, publish, open-source, or make the Software's source code publicly available in any form — including on GitHub, GitLab, npm, or any other public or private repository accessible by parties other than the Licensee.

### 4.4 No White-labeling
Rebrand or white-label the Software and sell or distribute it as your own original boilerplate or starter product.

This Agreement grants Licensee only the limited rights expressly set forth herein and no other rights, whether by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.

All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Licensor.

## 6. One License Per Buyer

## 7. GDPR & Data Protection (European Union)

Licensor processes personal data in accordance with the **General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR)**.

Licensee may request access to, rectification of, or erasure of their personal data at any time by contacting hello@getcreator.dev. Licensor will not sell or share Licensee's personal data with third parties except as required to fulfill the license (e.g. payment processors).

---

## 10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LICENSOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

LICENSOR'S TOTAL LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY LICENSEE FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
