npm Private Packages Terms

These npm Private Packages Terms of Use (these npm Private Packages Terms) supplement the terms for npm Open Source offered by npm, Inc. (npm) at https://www.npmjs.com/policies/open-source-terms (npm Open Source Terms). They govern access to and use of npm Private Packages, the private package storage, delivery, organization management, and access control features of https://www.npmjs.com (the Website) and the npm public registry at https://registry.npmjs.org (the Public Registry).

These npm Private Packages Terms were last updated on December 1, 2015. You can review prior versions at https://github.com/npm/policies/commits/master/private-terms.md.

You may only access or use npm Private Packages by agreeing to the npm Open Source Terms as supplemented by these npm Private Packages Terms. If npm adds any additional functionality to npm Private Packages, you must agree to these npm Private Packages Terms to use those new features, too. You add these npm Private Packages Terms to your agreement with npm by using npm Private Packages with your account (your Account). These npm Private Packages Terms then become a part of the contract between you and npm, until you or npm disable npm Private Packages for your Account.

npm will provide the private package storage and delivery features and services described in the public documentation for npm Private Packages at https://www.npmjs.com/private-modules (the npm Private Packages Documentation). npm grants you permission to use those features and services.

npm will also provide the organization management and access control features described in the npm Private Packages Documentation, and grants you permission to use those features and services, for npm Private Packages "organizations" to which your Account belongs.

Permission to use npm Private Packages is not exclusive to you, and you may not transfer it to others. These npm Private Packages Terms do not give you permission to give others rights to use npm Private Packages. If you agree to a Payment Plan that gives you that right, you may do so only according to that Payment Plan.

Both your permission to use npm Private Packages and npm's commitment to provide npm Private Packages are subject to these npm Private Packages Terms, the npm Open Source Terms, and payment for use of npm Private Packages by your Account under a Payment Plan. Payment plans include:

  1. the npm Personal Payment Plan at https://www.npmjs.com/policies/personal-plan

  2. or the npm Organization Payment Plan at https://www.npmjs.com/policies/organization-plan

You may not use npm Private Packages unless you or someone else has agreed to a Payment Plan, enabled npm Private Packages for your Account under that Payment Plan, and made payment.
