Terms of Service
By installing or using Deckpa you accept the terms below. If you do not accept them, do not use Deckpa. Deckpa is currently in private beta; this text states separately what applies during the beta and what will apply once payments start.
Parties
These terms are between Moserra Software LLC ("Provider"), which supplies the Deckpa software ("Service"), and the individual or legal entity installing it on their own server ("User"). The Provider is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Missouri, USA. Its registered address is 117 S Lexington St, Ste 100, Harrisonville, MO 64701-2444, USA. That is the address of the Provider's registered agent; it is not a physical office open to visitors.
What the service is
Deckpa is a hosting control panel that the User installs on their own server. The Provider supplies no hosting, server or connectivity service; it supplies the software license, the license verification service and update distribution. The sites, files, databases and users inside the panel are the User's responsibility.
Your server and your data
Deckpa is installed and runs on your own server. All of the following are your responsibility:
- the server and its hardware, and your hosting or data center provider;
- the operating system, network and firewall settings;
- your domains;
- the user accounts in the panel;
- all data and content on your sites, in your files and in your databases.
To the extent permitted by law, Moserra Software LLC is not responsible for damage caused by server hardware failure, an outage at your hosting provider, a full or failing disk, data loss, misconfiguration, a compromised server or account, or problems that appear after an update.
Taking backups and testing that you can restore them is your job. The panel's backup feature makes this easier, but it is not a guarantee that a backup will be taken, will be complete or can be restored. Before you apply any update, including a Deckpa update, you need to take a backup and try the update in a test environment first.
Moserra Software LLC is not a processor of the data on your server. That data stays on your server and is not sent to us; the exception is the information exchanged during Google Drive authorization, as described in the Privacy Policy.
The panel can optionally connect to third-party services such as Cloudflare, Let's Encrypt, Google Drive and Telegram. Those services are governed by their own terms. You are responsible for the data transfers you make from your server to third parties such as Google Drive. To the extent permitted by law, Moserra Software LLC is also not responsible for outages, changes or data loss at those services.
Beta period
- Deckpa is in private beta. Account sign-in and payment are not open yet.
- During the beta, no license restrictions are applied. The software and related services are provided as they are; no commitment is made that they will run without interruption, be free of errors or stay unchanged up to a given version.
- If you use a beta version in production, taking backups and accepting the risk of defects is your responsibility.
- The Provider may change or remove features during the beta.
License grant
- Subject to these terms, the Provider grants the User a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to use Deckpa for the User's own lawful purposes. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
- A license is used on one server at a time.
- Moving to another server: once the license verification service is enabled, activating the license on a new server ends its link to the old server and links it to the new one. Frequent moves may cause the license to be marked for review; during the review the panel keeps working with its current license status.
- Transfer: the User may not transfer or assign the license or any rights under these terms to another person or entity without the Provider's written permission. Sharing a license key with others is not allowed.
- Transfer by the Provider: in a merger, acquisition, sale of the company or transfer of its assets, the Provider may transfer these terms and the license relationship by giving you notice.
License and fees
No payment is taken during the beta; there is no subscription, automatic renewal or refund. The provisions in this section will apply once payments start.
- Current prices and any trial terms are published on the pricing page and shown at the time of purchase. A trial period, discount or refund condition that is not stated there is not promised.
- The single-plan license grants the right to use Deckpa with unlimited sites and users on one server. The license is a monthly or yearly subscription and renews automatically until it is canceled.
- Before each automatic renewal, a notice is sent to the e-mail address registered to your account.
- Payments are collected through Stripe. Your card details do not reach the Provider's servers.
- If a payment cannot be collected, the license is not renewed and the license status rules below apply.
- If you cancel, the license stays valid until the end of the period already paid for, and automatic renewal stops.
- Taxes may be added under applicable law unless the price states otherwise. Refund terms will be published when payments start.
License status and locking
The panel stores the license expiry date on your own server and, once the license verification service is enabled, renews it on a regular schedule.
- If the verification service is unreachable, the panel keeps running; the failed renewal is only recorded.
- If a license expires, a 7-day grace period applies and the panel works with full functionality during it.
- If the grace period also ends, the panel still does not lock. You can view, edit and delete existing sites; only creating new sites, subdomains, databases, FTP accounts and users is turned off.
- Renewing the license with a valid payment lifts this restriction.
Support
There is no separate support service yet. You can send questions to info@moserra.com; no response time is committed for this address. Details are in the Service Level Principles.
Acceptable use
The User agrees not to:
- use the Service in breach of applicable law or third-party rights, or to host or send content that is unlawful, infringing or harmful, including spam;
- distribute malware or try to gain unauthorized access to third-party systems or to the Provider's services;
- disrupt the Provider's services, including with automated abusive traffic;
- try to bypass license verification, copy a license without permission, or reverse-engineer the software, except where the law allows it.
Breaching these rules is grounds for terminating the license.
Export and sanctions
By installing or using Deckpa, you state that you are not on a US sanctions list, that you are not in a country or region prohibited under US export control and sanctions laws, and that you will not put Deckpa to a use those laws prohibit. You may not download, use or provide Deckpa to others in breach of those laws. To comply with them, the Provider may restrict access to the Service, the license service and update distribution.
Your content and feedback
The sites, files and databases on your server remain yours and are not sent to the Provider. The Provider may use feedback you send without restriction or payment.
Privacy
How personal data is handled is described in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
Intellectual property
The Deckpa software, design, documentation and brand belong to the Provider or its licensors. A license grants a right of use only; it transfers no ownership.
Disclaimer of warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without any express or implied warranty, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement and uninterrupted or error-free operation.
Limitation of liability
Responsibility for your server, your data and your backups is described in the "Your server and your data" section above. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Provider is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data or goodwill. The Provider's total liability arising from or relating to the Service does not exceed the amount the User paid the Provider for the Deckpa license in the 12 months before the claim. Liability that the law does not allow to be limited is not affected.
Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend Moserra Software LLC against third-party claims arising from your use of the Service in breach of these terms or the law, or from the content you host on your server, and to cover the damages arising from those claims. This provision does not apply where the law does not allow it.
Termination
The User may stop using Deckpa at any time. Once payments start, the User may cancel the license subscription; after cancellation the panel behaves as described above and no data on the server is deleted. The Provider may suspend or terminate a license if these terms are breached or if the law requires it. Terminating a license does not shut the panel down remotely: the 7-day grace period starts on the termination date, after which only creating new resources is turned off and existing sites keep running. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination remain in effect.
Notices
The Provider gives notices about these terms on this page and through the Service; once the account system is open, it will also send them to the e-mail address registered to your account. You can send notices and questions about these terms by e-mail to info@moserra.com or in writing to the registered address above. Other contact details are on the contact page.
Changes
The Provider may update these terms. The current text is published on this page and the date at the top changes. Material changes are announced through the Service and, once the account system is open, also by e-mail. Continuing to use the Service after a change takes effect means you accept the new terms.
Severability and mandatory rights
If a provision of these terms is found invalid or unenforceable, that provision is set aside only to the extent necessary; the other provisions and the limitations of liability remain in effect. Rights that by law cannot be waived or limited are not affected by these terms.
Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, USA. The courts located in Cass County, Missouri have jurisdiction over disputes arising from these terms. Mandatory consumer protection rules of the country where you live are not affected.
