Code, model and service licensing

MIT covers the core with notices; ee, web/src/ee and worker/src/ee use a commercial Enterprise License. Its development/testing exception is not permission for unrestricted production or distribution. Cloud is contractual access: standard PAYG identifies Langfuse GmbH, with signed-agreement exceptions. Customers retain data; service processing and non-confidential Usage Data rights differ. Cloud AI Data may improve products but not train/fine-tune models, with prospective admin opt-out of improvement. AI feature activation is separate from improvement tracing; configured self-hosted models have their own terms. Retrieve/delete before termination; deleted content's backups/cache/references can take up to 30 days. No model/output clearance or universal zero retention follows from the code license.

Basis and limits of the recorded score

Overview

Langfuse records application traces and supports prompt management, datasets, evaluator workflows and metrics. The repository separates MIT core directories from commercially licensed Enterprise code.

Cloud, self-hosting and optional AI-powered features have distinct contracts and data flows. Data-access windows shown in a plan are not a blanket deletion promise or evidence of better model quality.
