Modulo Open Source Software Notices & Licenses

Operated by Mega Meem Marketing • GSTIN: 09AHWPH2222E1ZE • Effective Date: November 2026

Modulo, including our Discord bot, web dashboard, REST APIs, workers, and associated services ("Modulo", "we", "us", or "our"), is built with and powered by exceptional open-source software, libraries, developer frameworks, open fonts, and community platforms.

We believe deeply in the open-source philosophy. Without the tireless dedication, passion, and creativity of thousands of open-source authors and maintainers worldwide, Modulo would not be possible.

This Open Source Notices & Licenses page provides formal attribution, licensing notices, copyright acknowledgments, and our sincere gratitude to all the open-source projects, fonts, packages, and frameworks utilized across our platform.

All trademarks, service marks, registered trademarks, logos, and product names referenced herein belong to their respective owners. Mention of third-party software does not imply endorsement by or affiliation with those projects, except where explicitly noted.

1. Core Philosophy and Open Source Gratitude

The Modulo platform is proud to stand on the shoulders of giants. Every automated security check, real-time Discord gateway event, anti-nuke defense loop, customizable embed canvas, and web dashboard page relies on open-source code.

We extend our deepest gratitude to every developer, designer, documenter, and contributor who maintains these libraries and provides them freely to the worldwide community.

Our commitment to open-source software includes:

•

Strict compliance with all open-source licensing terms, including permissive licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0, BSD 3-Clause, ISC) and font licenses (SIL Open Font License).

•

Full preservation of copyright notices, licensing text, and authorship credits across all distributed and hosted components.

•

Contributing upstream bug reports, performance improvements, and security disclosures whenever issues are identified.

•

Supporting the wider Discord developer ecosystem and adhering to all developer agreements and best practices.
