Terms of use
Last updated November 9, 2026.
These terms apply to your use of spillwaycms.com, its documentation and its package registry (the "site"), which KWALL LLC ("we", "us") operates. By using the site you agree to them. If you publish to the registry, you agree to them on behalf of yourself and any organization you publish for.
The software is licensed separately
Spillway is open-source software. Its licenses, not these terms, govern how you may use, change and distribute it: the server is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License version 3, and the block library, client, adapters and other packages under the MIT License, as stated in the repository. Each package in the registry is licensed by its publisher under the license it declares.
Using the site
You may use the site for any lawful purpose. Please do not:
- try to break into the site, test its security without following our security policy, or get around its limits;
- send so many requests that the site slows down for others, or scrape it in a way that does;
- upload malware, or use the site to harass, deceive or harm anyone.
Registry accounts
Keep your account details accurate and your password and API tokens secret. You are responsible for what happens under your account and your tokens. Tell us at hello@spillwaycms.com if you think someone else has used them.
Publishing packages
- You may publish only what you have the right to publish, under the license you declare.
- You keep the rights to your package. You give us a worldwide, royalty-free license to host, copy, scan, review, display and distribute it and its metadata as part of the registry, and to keep published versions available to people who already depend on them.
- A package must do what it says. No malware, no hidden behavior, no collecting people's data without telling them, no packages that imitate another project or organization, and no content that infringes someone else's rights. Package names follow the trademark policy and the registry's namespace rules.
- Published versions cannot be changed. To fix a problem, publish a new version.
- We may review, refuse, deprecate, yank or remove a package, publish a security advisory about it, and suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or puts people at risk. Where we can, we tell you first and give you a chance to fix it.
Packages are provided by their publishers
Packages in the registry are written and published by their publishers, not by us, unless they are published under @spillway. We run automated checks and review some packages, but we do not guarantee any package. Read a package's capabilities before you install it.
Feedback
If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them without any obligation to you.
Copyright complaints
If you believe something on the site infringes your copyright, email hello@spillwaycms.com with: your contact details; the work you believe is infringed; where the material is on the site; a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorized; a statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act for the owner; and your physical or electronic signature. We remove material that infringes, and close the accounts of repeat infringers.
Trademarks
How you may use the Spillway name and mark is in the trademark policy. Other names on this site, such as Drupal, WordPress and Ghost, are trademarks of their owners. We use them only to describe and compare, and their use does not mean that their owners endorse Spillway.
No warranty
The site and the registry are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement, to the extent the law allows.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data or goodwill, arising from your use of the site or the registry. Our total liability for any claim about the site is limited to one hundred US dollars. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.
Indemnity
If you publish a package or other content that breaks these terms or someone else's rights, you agree to cover the reasonable costs of claims against us that result.
Changes and ending
We may change these terms; the date at the top shows the current version, and if a change is significant we say so on this page. You may stop using the site at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and of the state in which KWALL LLC is organized, without regard to conflict of law rules. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the consumer protection laws of the place you live.
