Terms.
Three separate things, and keeping them apart is the whole point: the licence on the software, the use of this website, and any service you buy from a company.
Last updated: August 2026
The software is not what these terms cover
Sextant is published under the EUPL 1.2. That licence, and nothing on this page, decides what you may do with the code: run it, study it, change it and share it. There is no seat count, no expiry, and no acceptance of these terms needed to use it. The licence carries its own warranty and liability clauses, and those are the ones that apply to the software.
What these terms do cover
This website. It is run by BB Open Solutions B.V. (CoC 98046195, VAT NL868337365B01) in its role as steward of the project. These terms cover the pages you are reading and the contact form on them.
Services are bought from a partner
Implementation, migration, training, support and hosted control planes are sold by partners, not by the project. Each sets its own scope, price and terms, and that agreement is between you and that company. Nothing on this website forms it, and the project is not a party to it.
What this site promises
The pages describe the software as honestly as we can, including what it does not do, and are corrected when they turn out to be wrong. They are not a warranty and not advice for your situation. Read the code, or ask; both are free.
Liability for this website
Liability for the use of this website is excluded as far as the law allows. This does not apply in case of intent or gross negligence, and it says nothing about a service you bought: for that, the partner’s own terms decide.
The name
The code is yours to fork under the EUPL. The name is the one thing a licence deliberately does not hand out. There is no registered mark today, so what applies is a community agreement rather than a legal claim, and it is written out on the governance page. In short: say your product works with Sextant, do not present a fork as Sextant itself.
Law and disputes
Dutch law applies to the use of this website, with the Vienna Sales Convention excluded. Disputes go to the court of Zeeland-West-Brabant in Breda in the first instance. Where a Dutch and an English version differ, the Dutch text decides.
These pages cover this website. The steward runs it and is responsible for what happens on it; the software itself is governed by its licence. Need them in Dutch, or a signed copy? Ask.
