Legal
End User License Agreement
This End User License Agreement (“EULA”) is a legal agreement between you and HoneyPeer, LLC (“HoneyPeer”) for PearDock software products distributed by HoneyPeer, including server binaries, desktop clients, installers, and related documentation (the “Software”).
Last updated: July 11, 2026
1. Acceptance
By downloading, installing, copying, or using the Software, you agree to this EULA. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software. If you accept on behalf of an entity, you represent that you are authorized to bind that entity.
2. License grant
Subject to this EULA, HoneyPeer grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as permitted below), revocable license to install and use the Software on systems you own or control, for lawful purposes, including managing Docker environments over peer-to-peer connections as documented.
Where the Software (or portions of it) is also provided under AGPL-3.0 in source form, your rights under AGPL-3.0 for that source remain available and are not narrowed by this EULA. This EULA primarily governs HoneyPeer’s distribution of binaries, installers, trademarks, and packaging.
3. Open-source components
PearDock is engineered as open-source software under the GNU Affero General Public License, Version 3 (AGPL-3.0), matching Holesail. The Software may include third-party open-source components under their own licenses (see Open Source Notices). Those licenses govern those components. Holesail-related tunnel functionality is also AGPL-3.0.
4. Restrictions
Except as allowed by applicable open-source licenses or mandatory law, you may not:
- rent, lease, sell, sublicense, or provide the Software as a hosted multi-tenant service that conceals HoneyPeer’s trademarks in a misleading way;
- remove or alter proprietary notices, copyright legends, or attribution required by licenses;
- use the Software to violate law, third-party rights, or the Acceptable Use Policy;
- attempt to bypass security, authentication, or access controls of systems you do not own or administer;
- misrepresent the Software as officially endorsed by another party, or misuse HoneyPeer/PearDock marks in a misleading way.
5. Ownership
HoneyPeer and its licensors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including intellectual property rights, subject to open-source licenses applicable to specific components. This EULA does not transfer ownership of the Software to you.
6. Updates and versions
HoneyPeer may provide updates, rolling releases, or patches. Updates may be required for continued compatibility. HoneyPeer is not obligated to provide any particular update schedule. Pre-release, experimental, or “rolling” builds may be unstable.
7. Your data and infrastructure
The Software operates on infrastructure and networks you control or connect to. You are solely responsible for Docker hosts, containers, secrets, peer keys, tunnels, logs, and any data processed by systems you manage with PearDock. HoneyPeer does not claim ownership of your content or container workloads.
Unless you separately enable a HoneyPeer online service that collects data (described in the Privacy Policy), local use of the Software does not require sending operational Docker data to HoneyPeer.
8. Third-party software and services
The Software may interact with Docker Engine, operating systems, network services, and optional tunnel libraries. Those products are governed by their own terms and licenses. HoneyPeer is not responsible for third-party software behavior.
9. Support
Unless you have a separate written support agreement with HoneyPeer, the Software is provided without guaranteed support, SLA, or uptime commitment. Community documentation may be available on the Sites.
10. Term and termination
This EULA remains in effect until terminated. Your rights terminate automatically if you materially breach this EULA and fail to cure where cure is reasonably possible. Upon termination, you must stop using HoneyPeer-distributed proprietary packaging that is not independently licensed to you under open source, and destroy copies as required. Open-source licenses that have already been granted for source code survive according to their terms.
11. Export and sanctions
You must comply with U.S. and other applicable export control and sanctions laws. You may not use or export the Software in violation of those laws.
12. Warranty disclaimer
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HONEYPEER DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR USE OF THE SOFTWARE IN PRODUCTION OR CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTS.
13. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HONEYPEER WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR BUSINESS, ARISING FROM THE SOFTWARE OR THIS EULA. HONEYPEER’S TOTAL LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF FEES YOU PAID TO HONEYPEER FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR US $100.
