F-Droid is built on free software and only produces free software. We generally prefer the GNU licenses, but will consider other licenses in specific cases. This is a rough overview of the licenses used throughout the project.
- The source code for this site and the content produced by the F-Droid community are available under the GNU Affero General Public License version 3 or later (AGPLv3+).
- The content of the news section and the F-Droid logo are also available under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 License (CC-BY-SA-3.0) or GNU General Public License version 3 or later (GPLv3+).
- The descriptive text and graphics for each app have a specific license from that project. Free software should also have free descriptions and graphics.
- The F-Droid logo was created by William Theaker. Updates to that, and additional artwork, are by Robert Martinez. You can see and improve the current artwork and badges in the dedicated repository.
Each individual project on our GitLab contains a LICENSE file if you want
to find any specific licenses.
