Cryptomator’s libraries are dual-licensed under the AGPLv3 for FOSS projects as well as a commercial license derived from the LGPL for independent
software vendors and resellers. If you want to use these libraries in applications that are not licensed under the AGPL, feel free to contact our sales team.

Thanks for answering…
