Third-Party Notices

The open-source software QuickBox Pro installs, builds, bundles, or works with, and the license each is under.

Overview

QuickBox Pro installs, builds, bundles, or works with the open-source software below. Each component is licensed to you under its own license, not under the QuickBox Pro License Agreement, and nothing in that agreement restricts your rights under these licenses.

Applications QuickBox Installs from Upstream

Applications installed from their own upstream releases or package repositories (for example Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr and the rest of the app catalog) are not part of QuickBox Pro. They are provided by their authors under their own licenses, and some are proprietary. Netdata is installed from Netdata's official apt repository and remains under Netdata's own licenses.

Dashboard Dependencies

The QuickBox Pro dashboard's own open-source dependencies are listed in the THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES file shipped with it.

Source Code for GPL and LGPL Components

Every package QuickBox compiles is published in the public QuickBox/compiled-packages repository. The scripts used to build them are public in the QuickBox/qb-compile repository (https://github.com/QuickBox/qb-compile), and our patches are published in the QuickBox/pro-v3 repository under resources/patches. For each GPL- or LGPL-licensed component, the complete corresponding source for each published version, including the exact upstream source, is also available on written request to echo@quickbox.io, free of charge, for at least three years after we last distribute that version.
