Copyright Policy for gpldl.us

Your Digital Rights & Our Responsibilities

🎨 We Believe in Creativity & Respect

At gpldl.us, we champion the open-source spirit while honoring intellectual property rights. Here’s how we balance both:

🔍 Our Licensing Foundation

  • Everything we share is licensed under GPL (General Public License).
  • This means you’re free to use, modify, and redistribute all software – but original creators still own their work.
  • We’re like a library: We organize and share books (software), but we don’t write them.
