For theme and plugin authors

1. What these terms cover

1. 1.1These terms apply to themes, plugins and other Enigma2 components sent to HD Satelit through the form on the Developers page or by e-mail, to [email protected].
2. 1.2The HD Satelit feed is the list of packages from which receivers with the HD Satelit image install themes and plugins, directly from the receiver's menu.
3. 1.3The rules in point 3 (what we do not accept) apply to every request, including "Only compatible" ones: we do not adapt the image for components that break these rules. The licence rules in point 2 apply only to what goes into the feed.
4. 1.4The form can be sent only after you tick that you have read and accept these terms.

2. Licence and source (for the feed)

1. 2.1Only themes and plugins under the GPL-2.0 or GPL-3.0 licence go into the feed.
2. 2.2The complete source must be public, in a repository (for example GitHub or GitLab), for exactly the version that goes into the feed.
3. 2.3The author, or whoever holds the right, agrees that HD Satelit builds the package from source and publishes it in the feed, with the author's name and under the given licence.
4. 2.4We build the package ourselves, from source. Ready-made packages (for example .ipk) do not go into the feed: only what we build goes into the feed.
5. 2.5The image uses Python 3 (since version 0.7.0, Python 3.14). The plugin's Python code must work on Python 3.
6. 2.6A theme or plugin without public source or under another licence can get the "Only compatible" option: we adapt the image so it works, but it does not go into the feed.

3. What we do not accept

We do not put into the feed, and do not adapt the image for, themes and plugins that:

1. 3.1download, install or generate decryption keys: SoftCam.Key, BISS keys or other key files;
2. 3.2offer card sharing lines or line generators;
3. 3.3give access to pirated TV streams or illegal IPTV: channel lists, portals or services without broadcasting rights;
4. 3.4contain or install adult content;
5. 3.5contain extremist content or content that incites hatred or violence;
6. 3.6have unsafe code: scripts downloaded and run without checks, code run as root from unencrypted HTTP addresses, foreign feeds added without the user's consent;
7. 3.7have hidden code, use the receiver for something other than what they say (for example cryptocurrency mining) or send data about the user without their consent;
8. 3.8update themselves from somewhere else, bypassing our feed;
9. 3.9overwrite core files of the HD Satelit image or of the HD Satelit theme;
10. 3.10have the same package name as our packages or replace them.

4. Why

1. 4.1We protect people and their receivers. A plugin from the feed is installed from the menu with a few presses and runs on the receiver with full rights.
2. 4.2We respect the law: copyright and the rights of TV broadcasters. TV piracy, illegal IPTV and key or card sharing break them.
3. 4.3We keep the feed safe: we build and check everything in it ourselves, so people can install without worry.
4. 4.4For these reasons we have already asked for parts of components sent to us to be removed: key downloads, installers that added foreign feeds over HTTP or put other access modules over ours, adult content and extremist content.

5. HD Satelit special editions

1. 5.1If a good theme or plugin also has parts that are not allowed, we can ask the author for an HD Satelit edition from the same source, for example with a build switch, that removes those parts.
2. 5.2The HD Satelit edition keeps the name of the theme or plugin, the author's name and the licence.
3. 5.3We build it from the author's repository, from a fixed version (a tag or a commit), and check it like any other version.

6. Checking every version

1. 6.1We analyse every version before it goes into the feed: the source, what it installs, what it downloads and what it runs on the receiver.
2. 6.2If a new version contains elements that are not allowed, we stop updating it in the feed and let the author know.
3. 6.3If the author does not remove those elements within a reasonable time, the theme or plugin is removed from the feed.

7. Other conditions

1. 7.1We do not pay for themes and plugins and we do not charge for including them in the feed.
2. 7.2We give no guarantees: neither that a theme or plugin will be accepted, nor how long it stays in the feed.
3. 7.3We may refuse any theme or plugin, or remove it from the feed. We tell the author why.
4. 7.4The author is responsible for their code and for the rights to everything it contains: code, images, sounds, fonts.
5. 7.5We may change these terms. The new version appears on this page, with its date, and applies to versions sent after it.

8. Data sent through the form

1. 8.1The request is kept on the HD Satelit server and an e-mail goes to [email protected].
2. 8.2We use the data only to reply to you and to work on your theme or plugin. We do not publish it or pass it to anyone. The author or team name appears with the theme or plugin in the feed, as you gave it.
3. 8.3We do not keep the IP address: the server keeps only a fingerprint of it and the browser name, to stop repeated submissions.
4. 8.4If you want us to delete the data you sent, write to [email protected].
