Self-hosting Licence
Version 1.0 — 5 September 2026
This is the licence for the package you download and run on your own machine. It is published here so you can read it before deciding to download anything; the same text ships inside the package as LICENSE.txt, together with an Italian translation.
It is a different document from our Terms of Service, which govern the bot we host for you. If you never self-host, this page does not concern you.

0. What this is
This is a licence to use a program, not a licence to its source code. The source code of Team Tasks Manager (“the Software”) is not published and is not part of the package.
Please read it: it is short, and it says plainly what you may and may not do.
1. What we grant you
You may run the Software:
- for as long as you like, with no expiry and no fee;
- on as many machines as you own or control;
- for yourself, for your community, or for the internal purposes of your company, including commercial activity of your own.
This permission does not run out, and it does not depend on us continuing to exist. That is deliberate: you should never be trapped in a tool.
2. What you may not do
You may not:
- (a) provide the Software to other people as a service — hosted, managed or otherwise — whether or not you charge for it. Running it for your own organisation is use; running it for others is what we do, and it is not included here;
- (b) distribute, publish, resell, rent or lend the Software, in whole or in part. If someone else wants it, send them here — they will get it under this same licence, and the current version;
- (c) modify, adapt, translate or create derivative works of the Software;
- (d) decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to derive its source code;
- (e) remove or alter any notice of copyright, authorship or licensing;
- (f) use the names “Team Tasks Manager”, “TTM” or “bitsplitters”, or our logos, to present the Software as your own product, or in any way that suggests we endorse what you run.
3. Rights the law gives you anyway
Clauses 2(c) and 2(d) apply only so far as the law allows. Nothing in this licence limits the rights granted to you by mandatory provisions of applicable law — in the European Union, in particular, the acts permitted by Articles 5 and 6 of Directive 2009/24/EC, which include observing and studying how the program works while using it lawfully, and decompiling it where strictly necessary to achieve interoperability with other programs.
We would rather you simply asked us: write to us and, where we can, we will help.
4. Your data is yours, and so is the responsibility for it
When you run the Software yourself, the data it processes — your members’ messages, task contents, identifiers — stays on your machine and under your control. We neither receive nor can access it.
For the purposes of data protection law you are the sole controller of that data. Backing it up, keeping it safe, honouring the requests of the people it concerns, and complying with the law where you operate are your responsibility and not ours.
5. No warranty
The Software is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that it will run without interruption or error, nor that it will keep working with future versions of Discord.
6. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any damage arising out of the use or inability to use the Software, including loss of data, loss of profits or business interruption.
Nothing here excludes liability for wilful misconduct or gross negligence, nor any liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law — including, where you are a consumer, the mandatory protections of consumer law.
7. Updates and support
Updates are published when they are ready, at our discretion. Nothing in this licence obliges us to release them, to keep releasing them, or to provide support. What we already gave you keeps working regardless.
8. How this licence ends
It ends automatically if you breach clause 2, and you must then stop using the Software and delete every copy. Your right to the data you produced with it is unaffected.
You may end it at any time by deleting the Software.
9. Governing law
This licence is governed by Italian law. Any dispute shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Rome, Italy, save where mandatory rules give a consumer the right to bring proceedings before the courts of their place of residence.
10. Getting in touch
Questions about this licence, requests that go beyond it — an integration, a use we have not foreseen — are welcome: join our Discord server.
The permissions we cannot grant in a text meant for everyone, we can often grant to one person who asks.
