End User License Agreement

Effective date: June 26, 2026 · Version 1.0

This End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you ("you" or "Licensee") and CTRL Colab ("CTRL Colab", "we", "us", or "Licensor") for the OpenBar software application, including all associated files, assets, and documentation (collectively, the "Software"). By installing, copying, or otherwise using the Software, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, do not install or use the Software.

Please read Section 9 (Disclaimer of Warranty) and Section 10 (Limitation of Liability) carefully — together they provide the Software "as is" and limit CTRL Colab's liability to you.

1. License Grant

Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, CTRL Colab grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Software on devices that you own or control, for your personal or internal business purposes.

2. Description of the Software

OpenBar is a desktop utility that provides on-screen measurement, a color picker, screen capture, a special-character palette, and a local clipboard history. The Software runs locally on your device.

3. Privacy and Data

The Software is designed to operate entirely on your device. CTRL Colab does not collect, transmit, sell, or store your personal data, clipboard contents, screenshots, or color samples on any remote server. Any data created by the Software (such as settings, clipboard history, and color history) is stored locally on your device and remains under your control. You may clear this data at any time from within the Software.

4. System Permissions

To function, the Software may require operating-system permissions, including screen capture/recording and clipboard access. These permissions are used solely to provide the Software's features on your device. You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to capture, sample, or copy any content you process with the Software.

5. Restrictions

Except as permitted by applicable law or by the open-source licenses described in Section 8, you agree not to:

  • (a) resell, rent, lease, or sublicense the Software for a fee;
  • (b) remove or alter any proprietary notices or branding; or
  • (c) use the Software for any unlawful purpose.

You are solely responsible for your use of the Software's capture and clipboard features and for complying with all applicable laws, including privacy and intellectual-property laws.

6. Ownership

The Software, including its name, logos, design, and the original code authored by CTRL Colab, is owned by CTRL Colab and is protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Except for the license expressly granted in this Agreement and any rights granted under the open-source licenses referenced in Section 8, no rights are granted to you, whether by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.

7. Updates

CTRL Colab may, at its discretion, make updates, upgrades, or new versions of the Software available. This Agreement governs any such updates unless they are accompanied by a separate agreement, in which case that separate agreement applies.

8. Open-Source Components

The Software incorporates third-party open-source components (including, without limitation, Electron and React) that are licensed under their own respective terms. Nothing in this Agreement limits, supersedes, or modifies the terms of any applicable open-source license, and in the event of a conflict the applicable open-source license governs with respect to the corresponding component. A list of such components and their licenses is available from CTRL Colab on request.

9. Disclaimer of Warranty

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. CTRL COLAB DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE.

10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CTRL COLAB BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. CTRL COLAB'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID, IF ANY, FOR THE SOFTWARE OR TEN U.S. DOLLARS (USD 10).

11. Term and Termination

This Agreement is effective until terminated. It will terminate automatically, without notice, if you fail to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination, you must stop using the Software and remove all copies from your devices. Sections 6, 9, 10, 11, and 12 survive termination.

12. Governing Law

This Agreement is governed by the laws applicable at CTRL Colab's principal place of business, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

13. Entire Agreement

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and CTRL Colab regarding the Software and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings, communications, and agreements, whether written or oral, regarding its subject matter.
