Apache License 2.0 components

Matrix Rust SDK crypto FFI, matrix-sdk-crypto, vodozemac, Rust hpke, and JNA are distributed by Nuntaro under Apache License 2.0. Nuntaro elects Apache-2.0 where an upstream project offers a choice.

Copyright, patent, trademark, attribution, and NOTICE statements contained in those source distributions remain the property of their respective owners. The Apache license provides the software without warranties or conditions and limits contributor liability.

UniFFI 0.31.0 — Mozilla Public License 2.0

Nuntaro uses UniFFI to generate Swift and Kotlin bindings. The reviewed dependency is the unmodified crates.io release; Nuntaro has not vendored or modified upstream UniFFI source files.

MPL-2.0 applies at file level to covered UniFFI code. Separate Nuntaro files are not placed under MPL-2.0 merely because they are combined with UniFFI in a larger work. MPL-covered source and any covered-file modifications must remain available under MPL-2.0.

The Maven Central coordinate used by Nuntaro is the Community Edition build. Nuntaro does not represent that SQLCipher or Zetetic endorses Nuntaro.

Platform cryptography

Nuntaro also uses Apple CryptoKit, Security and Keychain APIs, and Android Keystore/JCA APIs. These are platform APIs supplied under the applicable Apple and Google SDK and store agreements, rather than third-party libraries vendored by Nuntaro.

This page covers the approved primary E2EE inventory. Before a production release, Nuntaro will reconcile these notices against the complete transitive software bill of materials from the exact iOS archive and Android App Bundle and add any additional required notices.
