GNU General Public License (GPLv2) Compliance
OptiForge is proudly built in total alignment with the WordPress open-source ecosystem, the Free Software Foundation, and the GNU General Public License.
1. Our Open Source Commitment
OptiForge is committed to the freedom and principles of free and open-source software. All PHP code within the OptiForge platform—including the free core plugin (optiforge-image-optimizer), the enterprise extension (optiforge-pro), and the official portal theme (OptiForge)—is licensed under the GNU General Public License v2 or later (GPLv2+).
2. The Four Essential Freedoms
Under the GPLv2 license, every user and developer is guaranteed the four fundamental software freedoms:
- Freedom 0: The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (personal, commercial, educational, or governmental).
- Freedom 1: The freedom to study how the program works and adapt it to your needs.
- Freedom 2: The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor.
- Freedom 3: The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits.
