# Commercial use of BitCadence
BitCadence is **free for personal and noncommercial use** under the
[Prosperity Public License 3.0.0](LICENSE). Hobby projects, learning, research, charities, schools and
public-good work are covered at no cost.
**Using BitCadence for a business?** You get a **free 30-day trial** for your whole company, starting the
first day anyone there uses it for work. After 30 days, keep using it with a commercial license.
## Getting a commercial license
Open an issue titled **'Commercial license'** on [github.com/mastalink/BitCadence](https://github.com/mastalink/BitCadence), or contact Batoncadence LLC through the repository. Include:
- your company name
- roughly how many people or agents will use it
- whether you self-host it or want help running it
You'll get a short written license that lets your company keep using, modifying and running BitCadence
for business, issued by Batoncadence LLC.
## What changed, and what didn't
- **Releases up to and including `0.5.0rc1` were published under the MIT License.** Anyone who received
those versions keeps the MIT rights to them. That never changes.
- Releases after `0.5.0rc1` are under the Prosperity Public License 3.0.0.
- The BitCadence name and logo are trademarks and are not licensed by either license. See [TRADEMARKS.md](TRADEMARKS.md).

licenses, contributors sign the short [Contributor License Agreement](CLA.md) before a pull request is merged.
