Sunil
some more license related questions. Would greatly appreciate if you could clarify soon as this would us decide if we can go ahead with canvasjs for our product.
1 – The way we plan to use the canvasjs library is as follows:
– Our product has a web server packaged with it to provide a web GUI for the product.
– As part of the Web GUI we also want to provide charts and this is where canvasjs comes in.
– We sell our product to customers all over the world, so the canvasjs scripts gets packaged/embedded as part of our product (and therefore gets exported) and gets installed on customer sites (again this could be anywhere in the world, we are a U.S. based company, customers could be located anywhere in the world, this is where the export part comes in). So the website that uses canvasjs is not hosted with us, it is hosted as part of our product deployed on the customer premises, which could, again, by anywhere in the world.
So this is how we intend to use it, wanted to confirm with you that this is OK in terms of the licensing for the *Developer License*.
2 – If we buy an unlimited developer license, would that license also be valid for another organization to which we sub-contract the work?
3 – The https://canvasjs.com/license/ has the following text about licensing, but i cannot find the part about being “royalty free” in the EULA. Can you please clarify.
Commercial Licenses
CanvasJS follows a simple “royalty-free” licensing model based on the number of developers. Commercial license allows you to integrate and distribute CanvasJS Charts in your Commercial Applications without any royalties. You are also allowed to modify the source code to suite your requirements.
thanks
