# License & terms

Bloxchain has **two different legal layers**: open-source **Protocol** code and the hosted **platform** (bloxchain.app).

## Bloxchain Protocol (on-chain, open source)

The Protocol smart contracts, TypeScript SDK (`@bloxchain/sdk`), and upstream `docs/` in [Bloxchain-Protocol](https://github.com/PracticalParticle/Bloxchain-Protocol) are under **Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL-2.0)** unless a subdirectory states otherwise.

* [LICENSE](https://github.com/PracticalParticle/Bloxchain-Protocol/blob/99beac2d6e6d7567c23b25cecaf6f4053f31c987/LICENSE)
* Example apps under `contracts/examples/` may use per-folder licenses

Deploying or forking Protocol code is governed by MPL-2.0. The platform does not change that license.

## bloxchain.app (hosted platform)

**bloxchain.app** is a separate **hosted product**. It is not MPL-licensed as a bundle with the Protocol.

| Topic       | Current alpha (June 2026)                                                                | Planned                       |
| ----------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| **Access**  | Personal accounts; free alpha on testnet                                                 | Team organizations            |
| **Billing** | No in-app pricing or checkout                                                            | Free and paid plans (roadmap) |
| **Terms**   | [Legal pages](/resources/faq.md) on the app (`/legal/:type`) — disclaimer, privacy, etc. | Commercial terms per plan     |

Using the platform means accepting the **product terms** shown in the app (disclaimer banner, legal routes), not the Protocol license alone.

**What the platform is not:** a custodian of private keys, a replacement for on-chain policy, or legal/tax advice.

## This documentation site

Public docs in `bloxchain-docs` describe how to use the platform and link to vendored Protocol reference pages ([protocol pin](/resources/releases.md#protocol-documentation-pin)). Documentation prose is not a substitute for product terms or the Protocol license.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.bloxchain.app/resources/license.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
