Bastion End User License Agreement
Effective date: October 1, 2026
Licensor: William Kurtz, operating as BVNGER ("BVNGER," "we," or "us")
Contact: legal@bvnger.dev
This End User License Agreement ("EULA") governs installation and use of the Bastion Windows launcher and Discord bot software (together, the "Software"). It is between BVNGER and the person or organization that installs or operates the Software ("you"). A Discord server member who only interacts with Bastion inside Discord does not need a Software license; the Bastion Terms of Service address those interactions.
Please read this EULA before installing or completing setup. By installing or using the Software, you agree to it. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.
1. Editions and license grant
Public Edition. Subject to this EULA, the Terms of Service, and an active subscription or other written authorization, BVNGER grants you a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable license to install and run Bastion for your own Discord server administration. Each license covers one Discord server that you own, selected at checkout, and one active Windows installation at a time. Managing another server requires a separate subscription.
Owner Edition. The Owner Edition includes private development and diagnostic tools. It is reserved for BVNGER's own use and for anyone BVNGER expressly authorizes in writing. Possession of an Owner Edition copy does not grant a customer a right to redistribute or use those tools.
Private beta and complimentary access. If BVNGER provides Bastion without charge for testing, your invitation or written authorization defines the beta period and any specific limits. Beta access does not create a paid subscription, promise continued access, or entitle you to a future paid plan.
You may make copies reasonably needed to install, run, and back up your authorized copy, subject to applicable law. You may not use one license for simultaneous installations on multiple Windows computers or virtual machines. If replacing a computer or reinstalling Windows, stop using the old installation when possible and contact us if you need help moving the license after a hardware failure.
2. Subscriptions and license keys
The Standard plan is a monthly subscription purchased at bvnger.dev/pricing and paid through Stripe. Its price, free trial, automatic renewal, cancellation, and failed-payment terms are set out in section 7 of the Terms of Service, and refunds are covered by the Refund Policy. The checkout page shows the terms that apply before you agree to a charge. Accepting this EULA does not by itself create a payment or subscription.
After purchase you receive a license key, which activates Bastion for the server and installation your subscription covers. Keep the key private. You may not share, sell, or publish it, or use it on more installations than your license allows. BVNGER may also issue keys manually for testing, complimentary access, or individually agreed terms; a manually issued key does not charge you or start automatic renewal unless its written terms say so.
3. Your responsibilities
You must have authority to administer the Discord server and to supply the bot token and permissions used by Bastion. Keep the token, Windows account, computer, backups, and your license key secure. Configure staff access and moderation features lawfully, give members required notices, and honor applicable privacy requests for records you control. Review destructive actions and maintain your own backups. Discord's terms and platform rules continue to apply to use of its services.
4. Restrictions
Except as expressly permitted by this EULA or applicable law, you may not redistribute, resell, sublicense, rent, or host copies of the Software for others; remove ownership notices; share a license across active installations; or bypass, disable, or interfere with a license check. You may not use Bastion to scrape or sell Discord data, evade Discord safeguards, or violate law or third-party rights. This section does not prevent activity that applicable law expressly permits despite a contractual restriction.
5. Ownership and your data
The Software is licensed, not sold. BVNGER and its licensors retain rights in Bastion's code, design, brand, and documentation. This EULA does not transfer ownership of your Discord server, your configuration, member content, or locally stored records to BVNGER. The Bastion Privacy Policy explains the Software's data practices, including the limited information sent when Bastion checks a license. Bastion does not send your local server records to BVNGER.
6. Updates, availability, and license expiration
Bastion relies on your computer, network, Discord, and required permissions. We may provide fixes and new versions, including automatic updates, but do not promise continuous operation or a particular update schedule. The Public Edition requires an active license and checks it with BVNGER's licensing service from time to time.
If a renewal payment fails, Bastion keeps working normally for 7 days. If the subscription is still unpaid after that, or it ends, Bastion switches to read-only mode: it stops making changes in Discord, while your settings, history, and local backups stay available so you can view and export them and stop the bot safely. BVNGER does not gain ownership of your local data when a license ends, and a temporary outage of the licensing service is not treated as a lapsed subscription.
7. Ending the license
You may end use at any time by stopping Bastion, removing its Discord access, and uninstalling the Software. Ending use does not cancel a paid subscription; cancel it as described in the Terms of Service. It also does not automatically delete local files, exports, backups, or Discord log messages, which you must review separately.
BVNGER may terminate this license for a material breach of this EULA after giving notice and a reasonable opportunity to fix the breach when appropriate. We may act sooner if necessary to address security, unlawful use, or platform enforcement. On termination, stop using the Software and remove unauthorized copies, subject to nonwaivable legal rights and any applicable record-retention duties. Ownership, restrictions, disclaimers, liability limits, and dispute provisions survive termination where their purpose requires it.
8. Warranty and liability
To the extent permitted by law, Bastion is provided "as is" and "as available." BVNGER does not promise uninterrupted Discord connectivity, error-free moderation, or recovery of deleted server content. You remain responsible for reviewing permissions and actions taken through your installation. This EULA does not exclude warranties or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded.
To the extent permitted by law, BVNGER is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive losses, or for lost data, profits, or business opportunities resulting from the Software. This does not limit liability that cannot lawfully be limited. This EULA does not set an additional cap on direct damages.
9. Other terms and changes
The Bastion Terms of Service govern use of Bastion's Discord features and server-member interactions. This EULA governs your license to install and run the Software. The Terms of Service, Refund Policy, and your checkout govern price, billing, renewal, cancellation, and refunds. If these documents conflict, the more specific term governs its subject, subject to mandatory law.
Iowa, United States law governs this EULA, without overriding mandatory protections that apply where you live. Contact us first at legal@bvnger.dev about a dispute. Courts with jurisdiction under applicable law may hear unresolved disputes. We may update this EULA for future releases; material changes will be presented before they apply where required by law. Continued use after a validly notified update takes effect indicates acceptance, unless applicable law requires a different form of consent.
