Helyx Source Available Licence 1.0

Copyright © 2026 Zycore Industries Ltd. All rights reserved.

Helyx was originally created by Liam Villarosa-Moore and is owned and
licensed by Zycore Industries Ltd.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

This is a source-available software licence. It is not an open-source licence.

By downloading, installing, accessing, copying, modifying or using the Covered
Software, You agree to the terms of this Licence.

Where You accept this Licence on behalf of a company, organisation,
partnership, community or other legal entity, You confirm that You have
authority to bind that entity.

If You do not agree to this Licence, You must not download, install, access,
copy, modify or use the Covered Software.

Ordinary interaction by members of a Discord Server with enabled Helyx
features (for example, using a command) does not, by itself, make those
members a party to this Licence. Such interaction forms part of the operating
Licensee’s Internal Use.

1. DEFINITIONS

1.1 Authorised User

“Authorised User” means:

(a) You;
(b) Your employees, officers and volunteers;
(c) members of Your organisation who require access to operate the Covered
    Software; and
(d) contractors acting solely on Your behalf and subject to obligations at
    least as protective as this Licence.

1.2 Covered Software

“Covered Software” means any source code, object code, executable code,
package, module, documentation or other material that:

(a) is supplied with this Licence;
(b) refers to this Licence in its package metadata or accompanying notices; or
(c) is a Modification of material supplied under this Licence.

Covered Software does not include Third-Party Components or Independent
Modules except where they are separately supplied under this Licence.

1.3 Discord Server

“Discord Server” means a Discord guild, community or server that You own,
operate or are authorised to administer.

1.4 Helyx

“Helyx” means the software platform and bot product originally created by Liam
Villarosa-Moore and provided by the Licensor under the name “Helyx”, together
with its associated source code, official modules, brand, name, logo, domains,
website and services.

1.5 Independent Module

“Independent Module” means software that:

(a) interoperates with Helyx through documented APIs, SDK contracts,
    manifests, events or other published integration points; and
(b) does not contain a substantial portion of the Covered Software.

Using documented Helyx interfaces does not, by itself, cause an Independent
Module to become Covered Software.

1.6 Internal Use

“Internal Use” means using the Covered Software for Your own personal,
organisational, community or business purposes.

Internal Use includes:

(a) operating Helyx in Discord Servers that You own or administer;
(b) allowing members of those Discord Servers to interact with enabled Helyx
    features;
(c) use by a commercial business;
(d) use by a paid, subscription-based, sponsored or otherwise monetised
    Discord community;
(e) evaluation, testing, development and security research;
(f) internal modification and configuration; and
(g) operation by an Authorised User on Your behalf.

Internal Use does not include providing Helyx as a product or managed service
to owners of unrelated third-party Discord Servers.

1.7 Licensor

“Licensor” means:

Zycore Industries Ltd
Company number: 13250521
Registered in England and Wales
Licensing email: licensing@helyx.gg

1.8 Managed Helyx Service

“Managed Helyx Service” means a product or service through which a third party
can:

(a) deploy Helyx to a Discord Server that the third party owns or controls;
(b) access substantial Helyx administration or configuration functionality;
(c) purchase hosted access to Helyx;
(d) obtain Helyx under another brand; or
(e) use Helyx as a substitute for obtaining it through an official Helyx
    distribution channel.

Ordinary interaction by members of a Discord Server that You own or administer
is not a Managed Helyx Service.

1.9 Modification

“Modification” means any alteration, adaptation, translation, correction,
enhancement, extension or derivative work based on the Covered Software.

1.10 Official Distribution Channel

“Official Distribution Channel” means:

(a) an npm account or organisation controlled by the Licensor;
(b) an official Helyx website or dashboard;
(c) an official Helyx source-code repository;
(d) an authorised download service controlled by the Licensor; or
(e) another distribution channel expressly approved in writing by the
    Licensor.

3. DURATION OF RIGHTS

The rights granted for a version of the Covered Software that You lawfully
obtained are perpetual unless this Licence is terminated under Section 16.

The expiry or cancellation of a Helyx subscription does not, by itself:

(a) terminate this Licence for a version already lawfully downloaded;
(b) remotely disable an installed copy;
(c) require You to delete an installed copy; or
(d) prevent that installed version from continuing to run.

Cancellation may end Your access to:

(a) future downloads;
(b) Restricted Releases;
(c) updates that remain restricted;
(d) official package repositories;
(e) premium support;
(f) hosted services;
(g) live assistance; and
(h) other subscription-only services.

This Section does not give You a right to obtain future releases after Your
entitlement has ended.

4. CONDITIONS OF USE

When exercising rights under this Licence, You must:

(a) retain all copyright, attribution, licensing and ownership notices;
(b) clearly identify material Modifications that You make;

    You;
(e) ensure Authorised Users comply with this Licence;
(f) use the Covered Software in accordance with applicable law; and

You are solely responsible for Your own compliance with all applicable
data-protection and privacy laws (including the UK GDPR) in respect of any
personal data processed through Your use of the Covered Software.

5. PROHIBITION ON RESALE

    sell.

You may charge for Permitted Professional Services under Section 7.

You may also charge members for access to a Discord community that uses Helyx,
provided the charge is for the community or its wider services and not
specifically for receiving Helyx or operating Helyx on separately controlled
Discord Servers.

6. PROHIBITION ON REDISTRIBUTION

You must not, without the Licensor’s prior written permission:

(a) publish or republish the Covered Software;
(b) upload it to another package registry, download service, marketplace or
    repository;
(c) distribute source or compiled copies to the public;
(d) distribute a Modification or fork;
(e) mirror an official Helyx package;
(f) provide copies to customers as part of an installation service;
(g) distribute a Restricted Release to anyone not authorised to receive it;
    or
(h) make the Covered Software available through peer-to-peer sharing,
    file-sharing services or unofficial download links.

Internal copying between Your own systems and Authorised Users is permitted
where reasonably necessary for Internal Use.

A customer receiving Permitted Professional Services must obtain the Covered
Software through an Official Distribution Channel using their own authorised
account or entitlement.

7. PERMITTED PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

You may charge for professional services relating to the Covered Software,
including:

(a) installation;
(b) configuration;
(c) migration;
(d) training;
(e) consulting;
(f) maintenance;
(g) troubleshooting; and
(h) development of Independent Modules.

This permission applies only where:

(a) the customer obtains the Covered Software directly through an Official
    Distribution Channel;
(b) You do not charge for a copy or licence to the Covered Software;
(c) You do not provide a Managed Helyx Service;
(d) You do not retain control of the customer’s installation except as their
    authorised contractor;
(e) You do not claim to be the Licensor or an official Helyx partner;
(f) You do not use Helyx branding except as reasonably necessary to identify
    compatibility; and
(g) the customer is independently bound by this Licence.

Permission to provide professional services does not grant permission to
redistribute, resell or sublicense the Covered Software.

8. INDEPENDENT MODULES

You may create, publish, distribute and sell Independent Modules.

You may choose the licence for an Independent Module that You own.

An Independent Module must not:

(a) contain a substantial portion of the Covered Software;
(b) redistribute official Helyx modules;
(c) circumvent subscription, entitlement, access-control or download
    restrictions;
(d) impersonate an official Helyx module;
(e) use the Helyx name or logo as its principal product name;
(f) imply endorsement, certification or partnership without written
    permission; or
(g) interfere with security, licensing, updates or platform integrity.

You may accurately state that an Independent Module is “compatible with Helyx”
where that statement is true.

The Licensor may publish reasonable technical and branding requirements for
compatibility claims.

Official Helyx modules remain Covered Software where supplied under this
Licence.

9. HOSTED AND MANAGED SERVICES

You must not, without a separate written commercial licence:

(a) operate a Managed Helyx Service;
(b) offer Helyx hosting to owners of unrelated Discord Servers;
(c) provide a dashboard through which customers deploy or manage Helyx on
    their own Discord Servers;
(d) offer substantial Helyx functionality as software as a service;
(e) operate a commercial bot platform substantially derived from Helyx;
(f) provide Helyx under a white-label arrangement;
(g) offer a rebranded or modified Helyx deployment as Your own bot product; or
(h) use the Covered Software to compete with an official hosted or managed
    Helyx offering.

This Section does not prohibit:

(a) Internal Use;
(b) operating Helyx in Discord Servers that You own or administer;
(c) ordinary use by members of those Discord Servers;
(d) an Authorised User operating Your installation on Your behalf; or
(e) Permitted Professional Services that comply with Section 7.

10. CONTRIBUTIONS AND PUBLIC FORKS

You may submit bug reports, patches and pull requests to an official Helyx
repository.

A public source-control fork is permitted only where it is reasonably
necessary to prepare or submit a genuine contribution, provided that:

(a) all copyright and licence notices are retained;
(b) the fork is clearly marked as unofficial;
(c) You do not publish releases, compiled packages or registry packages from
    the fork;
(d) You do not promote the fork as an alternative Helyx distribution;
(e) You do not include Restricted Releases that were not already public; and
(f) You take reasonable steps to archive or mark the public fork as inactive
    when it is no longer reasonably required for the contribution process.

Submission of a contribution does not, by itself, transfer ownership to the
Licensor.

Unless a separate written agreement (such as a Contributor Licence Agreement)
provides otherwise, by submitting a contribution to an official Helyx
repository You grant the Licensor a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive,
royalty-free, irrevocable and sublicensable licence to use, reproduce, modify,
adapt, publish, distribute, sublicense and otherwise exploit Your contribution
and any derivative works of it, as part of the Covered Software or otherwise,
including the right to license it under this Licence, any future version of
this Licence and any separate commercial licence. You confirm that You have
the right to grant this licence and that, so far as You are aware, Your
contribution does not infringe the rights of any third party.

Contributions may be subject to separate contributor terms or a Contributor
Licence Agreement.

The Licensor is not required to accept, merge, maintain or support any
contribution.

11. RESTRICTED RELEASES

Restricted Releases may be used only by the individual, organisation or
Discord Server for which access was granted.

You must not:

(a) share a Restricted Release;
(b) share credentials or download links for a Restricted Release;
(c) publish its source code;
(d) republish its package;
(e) enable it for an unauthorised Discord Server;
(f) remove access restrictions;
(g) circumvent an entitlement check; or
(h) help another person gain unauthorised access.

Where a Restricted Release later becomes publicly available, the licence
accompanying the public release will govern that public release.

Rights granted to a commissioning customer during a private-access period do
not create permanent exclusivity unless a separate written agreement expressly
states otherwise.

12. TECHNICAL AND ENTITLEMENT CONTROLS

You must not bypass, disable, remove or interfere with:

(a) access controls;
(b) subscription checks used to control new downloads;
(c) package-integrity checks;
(d) update restrictions;
(e) early-access restrictions;
(f) licence notices;
(g) security protections; or
(h) restrictions protecting unreleased functionality.

Nothing in this Section permits the Licensor to remotely disable a lawfully
installed copy merely because a subscription ends.

Technical controls must not be used as a substitute for rights not granted by
this Licence.

13. OWNERSHIP

The Covered Software is licensed, not sold.

Zycore Industries Ltd and its contributors retain all copyright and other
intellectual-property rights in the Covered Software.

Helyx was originally created by Liam Villarosa-Moore. Zycore Industries Ltd is
the owner and Licensor of Helyx and the Covered Software, subject to any
separately identified rights in Third-Party Components or contributions.

You retain ownership of:

(a) Your original Independent Modules;
(b) Your Discord Server content;
(c) Your configuration data;
(d) Your credentials; and
(e) original code You create that does not contain or derive from Covered
    Software.

You do not acquire ownership of the Covered Software by modifying,
configuring, hosting or contributing to it.

14. BRANDING AND TRADEMARKS

The Helyx name, Helyx Link logo and associated brand assets are owned by Zycore
Industries Ltd. This Licence does not grant permission to use:

(a) the Helyx name;
(b) the Helyx Link logo;
(c) official Helyx module names;
(d) Helyx visual branding;
(e) Helyx domains;
(f) Helyx product artwork; or
(g) any other Helyx trademark or brand asset,

except where reasonably necessary to make a truthful compatibility statement
or reproduce an existing notice contained in the Covered Software.

You must not imply that an unofficial copy, Modification, service or module is:

(a) produced by Helyx;
(b) endorsed by Helyx;
(c) certified by Helyx;
(d) supported by Helyx; or
(e) an official Helyx release.

The Licensor may publish a separate trademark and brand-usage policy.

15. THIRD-PARTY COMPONENTS

Third-Party Components are governed by their own licence terms.

This Licence does not restrict rights granted to You directly under a
Third-Party Component’s licence.

Where this Licence and a Third-Party Component’s licence differ, the third
party’s licence governs that Third-Party Component.

A list of relevant Third-Party Components and notices may be supplied with the
Covered Software.

16. TERMINATION

The Licensor may terminate this Licence where You materially breach its terms.

Except for the breaches listed below, the Licensor may, at its sole
discretion, provide written notice and an opportunity of at least fourteen
days to remedy a remediable breach before terminating. The Licensor is not
obliged to provide such notice or opportunity.

The Licensor may terminate immediately where You intentionally:

(a) resell the Covered Software;
(b) operate an unauthorised Managed Helyx Service;
(c) distribute a Restricted Release;
(d) circumvent access or entitlement controls;
(e) falsely present a product as official Helyx software;
(f) remove ownership or licence notices; or
(g) continue a material breach after receiving notice.

When this Licence terminates, You must:

(a) stop using the Covered Software;
(b) stop allowing Authorised Users to use it;
(c) delete or destroy copies under Your control; and
(d) stop using Helyx branding.

You may retain copies only where required by law, provided those copies are not
used.

Where a breach is capable of remedy and is Your first breach of this Licence,
Your rights under this Licence will be automatically reinstated once You have
fully remedied the breach, unless the Licensor has already given final written
notice of termination.

Termination does not affect:

(a) accrued rights or liabilities;
(b) the Licensor’s ownership;
(c) warranty exclusions;
(d) liability limitations; or
(e) provisions that are intended to survive termination.

Cancellation or expiry of a subscription is not a breach and does not
terminate this Licence for lawfully obtained versions.

17. UPDATES, SERVICES AND SUPPORT

This Licence does not require the Licensor to provide:

(a) updates;
(b) upgrades;
(c) security fixes;
(d) compatibility fixes;
(e) documentation;
(f) support;
(g) hosting;
(h) continued package availability;
(i) continued development; or
(j) access to future versions.

Support, hosted services, restricted downloads and updates may be governed by
separate subscription or service terms.

The Licensor may discontinue a release or service, subject to any separate
binding agreement.

18. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Covered Software is provided “as
is” and “as available”.

The Licensor gives no warranty that the Covered Software:

(a) will be uninterrupted or error-free;
(b) will meet Your requirements;
(c) will be compatible with every Discord, hosting or database environment;
(d) will remain compatible with third-party services;
(e) will prevent data loss, abuse or security incidents; or
(f) will receive updates or continued support.

All warranties, representations, conditions and other terms not expressly
stated in this Licence are excluded to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Nothing in this Licence excludes rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

19. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Nothing in this Licence limits or excludes liability for:

(a) death or personal injury caused by negligence;
(b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
(c) deliberate misconduct; or
(d) any liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.

Subject to that restriction, the Licensor will not be liable for:

(a) loss of profit;
(b) loss of revenue;
(c) loss of business;
(d) loss of goodwill;
(e) loss of anticipated savings;
(f) loss or corruption of data;
(g) Discord enforcement action;
(h) service interruption;
(i) indirect loss;
(j) consequential loss; or
(k) special loss.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Licensor’s total aggregate
liability arising from or relating to the Covered Software will not exceed the
greater of:

(a) the total amount You paid directly to the Licensor for the affected
    Covered Software during the one (1) month immediately before the event
    giving rise to the claim; or
(b) £10.

This is a single, combined cap on the Licensor’s total liability. It applies to
all claims taken together, however and whenever arising, and regardless of the
number of items of Covered Software, packages, modules, copies or versions
involved. It is not a separate cap for each package, module, copy, version,
claim or event, and such caps do not accumulate. This limitation applies
regardless of the legal basis of the claim.

20. COMMERCIAL LICENCES AND EXCEPTIONS

The Licensor may grant separate written permission for activities that this
Licence does not permit, including:

(a) commercial redistribution;
(b) authorised hosting;
(c) managed services;
(d) white-label deployment;
(e) resale;
(f) OEM distribution;
(g) permanent private modules;
(h) official partnership; and
(i) expanded branding rights.

A separate commercial licence applies only to the parties and activities
expressly identified in that agreement.

No exception is valid unless agreed in writing by the Licensor.

Commercial licensing enquiries should be sent to:

licensing@helyx.gg

21. TRANSFER

You may not assign, transfer or sublicense this Licence without the Licensor’s
prior written permission.

The Licensor may transfer its rights and obligations under this Licence as part
of:

(a) a merger;
(b) reorganisation;
(c) sale of the Helyx business;
(d) transfer of substantially all relevant assets; or
(e) transfer of the Covered Software and associated intellectual-property
    rights.

22. CHANGES TO THIS LICENCE

The licence version supplied with a particular release governs that release.

The Licensor may publish revised licence versions for future releases.

A revised licence does not automatically replace the licence supplied with a
version You already lawfully obtained, unless You expressly agree otherwise.

23. SEVERABILITY

If a court or competent authority finds part of this Licence unlawful, invalid
or unenforceable, that part will be interpreted or modified to the minimum
extent necessary to make it enforceable.

If that is not possible, the affected part will be treated as removed.

The remaining provisions will continue in effect.

24. NO WAIVER

A delay or failure to enforce a provision of this Licence does not waive the
right to enforce it later.

A waiver is effective only when given in writing by the party granting it.

25. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Licence constitutes the entire agreement concerning the rights granted to
You in the Covered Software, except where a separate written agreement
expressly supplements or replaces it.

Website descriptions, marketing statements, roadmap entries and informal
communications do not amend this Licence.

26. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

This Licence and any dispute or claim arising from it are governed by the laws
of England and Wales.

The courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction, except where
applicable consumer law gives an individual consumer the right to bring
proceedings elsewhere.
