NEXO SOURCE-AVAILABLE ATTRIBUTION–NONCOMMERCIAL–NO-DERIVATIVES LICENSE
Version 1.0 — 15 October 2026

Copyright (c) 2026 Eduardo J. Barrios. All rights reserved.
Project: NEXO — https://github.com/edujbarrios/nexo

IMPORTANT: This is a restrictive, source-available software license, NOT an
OSI-approved open-source license. It has not been independently legal-reviewed.

1. GRANT OF PERMISSION
Subject to all conditions below, the copyright holder grants each recipient a
non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, revocable-on-breach permission to:
(a) view, download, and examine the unmodified NEXO source code;
(b) run and compile the unmodified NEXO software for personal, educational,
    academic, nonprofit, or independent research purposes only, provided such
    use is noncommercial;
(c) copy and redistribute verbatim, unmodified copies of NEXO, including
    binaries built from unmodified source, for noncommercial purposes only,
    with this license, the copyright notice, and attribution intact; and
(d) quote, discuss, review, or cite NEXO with reasonable attribution.
Using NEXO as a dependency through its published API, and writing separate
software that calls that API, does not by itself modify NEXO. Such use of NEXO
must still be noncommercial. The separate software is not automatically
subject to this license.

2. ATTRIBUTION
Any permitted redistribution must prominently preserve:
" NEXO — Copyright (c) 2026 Eduardo J. Barrios "
along with the repository URL and the full text of this license.
When citing NEXO in publications or documentation, credit Eduardo J. Barrios
and link to https://github.com/edujbarrios/nexo where practicable.

3. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES
Without the copyright holder's prior explicit written authorization, you may
NOT:
(a) modify, adapt, translate, port, patch, or create derivative versions of
    NEXO source code or binaries, or publish a modified fork;
(b) use NEXO for commercial purposes, including in a for-profit product,
    paid service, commercial infrastructure, or in connection with commercial
    advantage or monetary compensation, whether directly or indirectly;
(c) distribute, sublicense, or sell NEXO under terms that contradict this
    license; or
(d) remove or obscure notices of copyright, attribution, or licensing.
No trademark or patent rights are granted by this license.

4. OTHER RIGHTS AND THIRD-PARTY COMPONENTS
This license does not limit rights that applicable law grants independently,
such as lawful quotation or mandatory statutory exceptions. Third-party
dependencies retain their own respective licenses. The copyright holder
may license NEXO separately on different terms, including for commercial use
or modifications by explicit written permission.

5. TERMINATION
Permission under this license ends automatically if you violate its terms.
Cease any unauthorized use and distribution. Rights required by applicable
law remain unaffected.

6. DISCLAIMER
NEXO IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER
SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES, OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING
FROM USE OF THE SOFTWARE, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

7. PREVIOUS RELEASES
This license applies to code distributed under this license. It does not
retroactively withdraw permissions already granted to copies previously
obtained under a valid earlier license.
