Terms of Service

Last updated: February 11, 2026

Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using the Chocolatey Scripts website, repository, or any scripts provided therein ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

These Terms apply specifically to Chocolatey Scripts, a project by CodeCraftedApps, and are separate from the terms of other CodeCraftedApps projects.

Description of Service

Chocolatey Scripts is a collection of open-source PowerShell scripts designed to help users manage the Chocolatey package manager on Windows systems. The Service includes:

  • PowerShell scripts for installing, updating, and maintaining Chocolatey packages
  • Configuration files and documentation
  • This website and its content
  • The associated GitHub repository

Open Source License

The scripts and source code are released under the MIT License. You are free to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the software, subject to the conditions of the MIT License. The full license text is available in the LICENSE file.

Use at Your Own Risk

These scripts interact with your Windows operating system and installed software. By using these scripts, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • System modifications: The scripts may modify PowerShell execution policies, install or remove software packages, create scheduled tasks, modify system configurations, and create files and directories on your system.
  • Administrator access: Most scripts require administrator privileges and can make system-wide changes.
  • Your responsibility: You are solely responsible for reviewing and understanding each script before executing it. You should test scripts in a non-production environment first.
  • No guarantee: We do not guarantee that the scripts will work on every system configuration, or that they will not cause unintended effects.
  • Data loss: While scripts are designed to be safe, any script that modifies system settings carries inherent risk. We recommend creating system restore points and backups before running scripts.

Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that:

  • The scripts will meet your specific requirements
  • The scripts will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free
  • The results from using the scripts will be accurate or reliable
  • Any errors in the scripts will be corrected

Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CODECRAFTEDAPPS, ITS CONTRIBUTORS, OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, SYSTEM DAMAGE, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY.

Third-Party Software

The scripts interact with third-party software and services, including but not limited to:

  • Chocolatey - Subject to its own license and terms
  • Software packages - Each package installed via Chocolatey has its own license and terms
  • GitHub - Subject to GitHub's Terms of Service

We are not responsible for the functionality, security, or terms of any third-party software installed by these scripts. You are responsible for complying with all applicable licenses for software installed on your system.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the scripts for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable laws
  • Redistribute modified versions of the scripts without proper attribution as required by the MIT License
  • Use the scripts to intentionally damage or disrupt computer systems
  • Misrepresent the origin or authorship of the scripts

  • Your contributions will be licensed under the same MIT License as the project
  • You have the right to submit such contributions
  • Your contributions do not infringe on any third-party rights

Modifications to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the modified Terms.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.
