License verification — full transparency
What a licensed install sends, how often, and how to turn it off.
OtoDock licenses are cryptographically signed (Ed25519) and validated locally — no network is required to run the software. Paid installs additionally perform a lightweight, non-blocking verification check.
What is sent
- The signed license key and an anonymous install identifier — nothing else.
- No user data. No usage data. No content.
How often
- Once at activation (binds the key to one install), then a periodic liveness check.
- If verification cannot reach us, the product keeps working — the check is informational, never a kill-switch.
Air-gapped / offline
Offline (enterprise) licenses never phone home at all — validation is by signature alone. Available on request for regulated and disconnected deployments.
Because OtoDock is Fair Source, you don't have to take our word for it — the verification code is in the public repository and you can read exactly what it sends. Questions: [email protected].
