Beta terms, in plain English
Last updated 3 July 2026 · netmap is in private beta
netmap is in private beta. These are the working rules while it is — short, honest, and written by the person who builds the software, not by a law firm.
01It's a beta
The software is provided as-is, while it's being built. Expect bugs, features that move, and the occasional rough edge. It drafts real show paperwork today — but you're the engineer of record: check the sheet before load-in, same as any drawing.
02Your license
Beta licenses and trials are personal, run free with full features during the private beta, and are revocable for abuse — sharing keys, attacking the service, scraping the community library, or pushing junk through publish links. Play it straight and none of this applies to you. The full license terms live in the EULA.
03Your shows are yours
Show files are local .json on your machine, and export is always available — during the beta and after it. Nothing you make is held hostage.
04What you submit to the community library
By clicking "Submit to netmap library" you confirm you're allowed to share the item (nothing confidential or proprietary), and you give netmap permission to review, edit, merge with duplicates, host and distribute it to other users — with optional @handle credit to you.
05What you publish
Publish links carry content you chose to make public, and you're responsible for it. netmap can take down a published show that's illegal or abusive. Links expire after 14 days by default; you can extend them from the app.
06Payment & pricing
Paid plans will be sold through our payment partner, a merchant of record — their checkout terms govern the purchase itself, including refunds. The beta itself is free.
Prices can change at any time, with or without notice. The rate card is the current plan, not a promise. A price change applies going forward: it never rewrites a period you've already paid for, and if a subscription price changes you'll see the new price before your next renewal charges.
07Acceptable use
Don't share license keys or resell access. Don't reverse-engineer, patch, or circumvent the licensing and enforcement in the software. Don't attack, overload, or scrape the netmap services. Don't push illegal, infringing, or confidential-that-isn't-yours content through the community library or publish links. Breaking these is how a license gets revoked.
08Features can change
netmap is actively built. Features — especially cloud-dependent ones like cloud export, publish links, and the community library — can be added, changed, moved between tiers, or discontinued as the product finds its shape. Free-during-beta features may become paid features later; anything like that lands with notice on this site.
09Availability
There's no uptime guarantee during the beta. The cloud services get maintained, sometimes they restart, and occasionally they'll be down. Your local files never depend on them.
10Intellectual property
netmap — the software, the services, the brand — is proprietary and stays that way; a license is permission to use it, not ownership of it. Feedback and suggestions you send can be used to improve the product without obligation or payment. Your shows remain yours, full stop.
11If you publish someone else's secrets
You're responsible for what you choose to publish or submit. If you share a rig design, IP schema, or document you didn't have the right to share and it causes a dispute, that dispute is yours — netmap will take the content down, and you cover netmap for claims that come from your upload.
12Ending things
You can stop using netmap any time — your local files stay on your machine and keep working as files. netmap can suspend or revoke licenses for the abuse cases above. If the beta or a service winds down, you'll get notice and your data-export path (plain .json) is always open.
13Changes to these terms
These terms will evolve with the product. Updates get posted here with a fresh date; material changes get flagged on this site (and by email to license holders when it matters). Using netmap after a change means the current version applies.
14The legal frame
netmap is a professional tool intended for business use; you need to be able to form a contract to use it. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, USA. If some part of them turns out unenforceable, the rest still stands.
15No warranties, plain version
To the fullest extent the law allows, netmap comes with no warranties and isn't liable for lost profits, lost shows, or the cost of a re-pulled cable. Verify critical paperwork the way you'd verify any drawing that goes to the shop.
