License Agreement

General License Terms 🔗︎

Effective February 2026

1. Preamble 

1.1. These General License Terms (“License Terms”) apply to all Maltego software products and Subscription Plans (collectively referred to as “Software”), owned and distributed by Maltego Technologies GmbH and its Affiliates (as defined in Section 21.2) (“Maltego”) and accompanying services to it (“Accompanying Services”) provided by Maltego to its customer(s) (“Customer(s)”).

1.2. Unless agreed otherwise, Maltego distributes Software Licenses by way of subscription-based models, including for pre-defined data packages based on credits consumption, that allow Customer to access third-party data (“Subscription Plans”). Furthermore, Maltego operates a platform ("Transform Hub") which is directly accessible via the Software and provides access to various sources of information or data ("Data Access"). By subscribing to a Subscription Plan, Customer acquires temporary rights to use the Software and will be given access to optional Accompanying Services and Data Access as further defined herein.

1.3. These License Terms shall constitute a binding contract between Maltego and Customer. Maltego and Customer are also referred to as “Party” and collectively the “Parties”.

2. Scope of Software Licenses

2.1. By subscribing to a Subscription Plan, Customer will be granted a worldwide, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable license to temporarily use the Software for Customer’s own purposes for the term stated in the Subscription Plan purchased (“Software License”), under the limitations stated herein. The grant of this license is subject to full and timely payment of the applicable fees.

2.2. Unless agreed otherwise, Software Licenses are personalized and valid only for specific Users (however, every User may use the Software on several computers or mobile devices). If Customer wishes more than one person, e.g., several users to use Software, it needs to subscribe the respective number of Users under the Subscription Plan.

2.3. “User” means: (a) a natural person and (b) an employee of Customer who is authorized to access and use the Software under a valid Software License. Customer may designate a non-employee (i.e., an independent contractor) as User, provided Customer takes all measures to ensure such non-employee uses the Software and services only as permitted under these License Terms.

2.4. Customer has no right to reproduce or copy the Software or any accompanying documentation, such as user manuals, operation instructions, installation guides, release notes and online help files, product descriptions and specifications, illustrations, drawings, particulars, training materials, technical manuals, license agreements, supporting materials and other information relating to performance data or any other data and information provided on Maltego’s website or otherwise made available (whether distributed in print, electronic or video format) by Maltego to Customer (“Documentation”).

2.5. Customer shall not translate, adapt, develop, vary, modify, disassemble, decompile or reverse engineer the Software or allow any third party to do so. Customer shall not circumvent any licensing, control, security or encryption features or reverse engineer any communication protocols. Customer is not permitted to sell, lend, rent, offer for sale, prepare a derivative work, export, have made, display to third parties, distribute or sublicense the Software License or to reproduce or to make the Software or the Documentation available to third parties. Customer’s right to applicable Copyright Laws remains unaffected, only if Maltego has not provided the necessary data and/or information to establish interoperability with other hardware and software after a written request within a reasonable period of time. Customer may not entrust decompilation measures to third parties that are competitors of Maltego, unless it can prove that the risk of disclosure of important trade and business secrets (in particular of the functions and design of the software) is excluded. Section 3 (Intellectual Property) and 18 (Confidentiality) shall apply to all knowledge and information acquired about the Software in the course of the decompilation.

2.6. Copyright markings, serial numbers as well as other characteristics serving purposes of identification of the Software, may not be eliminated or changed. The same applies to suppressing the display of such features on the screen.

2.7. Customer shall be obliged to take adequate measures to prevent unauthorised access to the Software and its Documentation by third parties. Unless specifically otherwise agreed, reselling (back-to-back to third parties) is prohibited.

3. Intellectual Property

These License Terms shall not be considered as granting to Customer any right to present or future patent, application, Confidential Information, software, source or object code, invention, trademark, copyright, trade secret or any other property right, including intellectual property, which Maltego may control or own, now or in the future, related to the Software, Transform Hub, Data Access, or any other items that may be provided by Maltego. This provision does not affect the rights of third parties to develop and publish Transforms or extensions for the Software in accordance with Maltego’s published guidelines. In particular, Customer agrees that all inventions, improvements (including those relying on Customer’s feedback), copyrightable works, designs, etc. shall be the sole and exclusive property of Maltego.

4. Export Control

4.1. Customer warrants that it is not, nor is it owned or controlled by, directly or indirectly, a person or entity that is included on any list of sanctioned or ineligible parties maintained by the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom or Germany. In particular, Customer warrants that it is not, nor is it owned or controlled by, directly or indirectly, a person or entity that is included on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (“SDN List”) or the Consolidated List of UN, EU, and UK Financial Sanctions.

4.2. Customer warrants not to sell, export, re-export, transfer, use, or enable the use of the Software, its related technology and services, or any other items that may be provided by Maltego, directly or indirectly:

a) to or for end-use by any person or entity included on any list of sanctioned or ineligible parties maintained by the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom or Germany; and

b) to or for end-uses prohibited by United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom or German export or sanctions laws and regulations.

5. Anti-Corruption

5.1. Customer warrants to Maltego that none of its activities under these License Terms shall be made for the purpose or effect of, or reflect acceptance or acquiescence in, public or commercial bribery, extortion, kickbacks, payoffs or other unlawful or improper means of obtaining business.

5.2. Customer further warrants and agrees that it has and will strictly adhere to all applicable anti-corruption laws in connection with fulfilling its obligations under these License Terms.

6. Vetting Process

To ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations, access to Maltego Software will only be offered to those Customers who meet the requirements of Maltego’s vetting process (“Vetting Process”). If required, Maltego will assess Customer’s compliance with the requirements of its Vetting Process by conducting a Customer-specific check, which forms an integral part of the Order Process. Customer is obliged to provide all information requested during the Vetting Process completely and truthfully. Customer is strictly liable without limitation for all consequences of any false or incomplete statement provided during the Vetting Process. It is solely at Maltego’s discretion whether Customer will be granted access to Maltego Software. It is Customer’s responsibility to ensure that it continues to meet all criteria notified in the Vetting Process throughout the Subscription Term and at time of renewal.

7. Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”)

7.1. It is Customer’s responsibility to ensure that its use of the Software, Data Access, and any information acquired through the Software conforms with all applicable laws and these License Terms, in particular for countries in which the Software is used.

7.2. In particular, Customer warrants and agrees, including on behalf of Customer’s affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, that the Software will not be used:

• in any way that violates or infringes upon fundamental individual rights and freedoms, including those relating to freedom of speech, the protection of privacy and personal data and intellectual property;

• for sending mass unsolicited email (SPAM) or mass unsolicited phone calls;

• for the purpose of entrapment;

• for political activities of any kind, including political campaigns;

• for distribution to any media outlet, including news articles, interviews, press releases and events, without Maltego’s prior written approval;

• in any manner that could harm, infect, take over, disable, overburden, or otherwise impair computer systems, including servers, networks;

• to carry out denial of service operations while the platform functions;

• to carry out penetration or security tests or to try to access the Software outside the scope of the present License Terms;

• to exploit the possible malfunctioning issues of the Software in order to gain access to Software data or data relating to other Customers using the Software;

• in any misleading manner which would adversely impact upon the reputation or goodwill of Maltego.

7.3. Maltego may monitor Customer’s use of the services as necessary to ensure security, compliance, and proper license use. Maltego or authorized third parties shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, to audit Customer’s compliance with this AUP and the License Terms. If this reveals a material breach of this AUP or the License Terms, Customer shall, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies of Maltego, promptly remedy such breach at its own cost and reimburse Maltego´s necessary audit costs. Where such material breach is not capable of remedy, or where Customer fails to remedy a breach within a reasonable period specified by Maltego, Maltego shall have the right to terminate, in whole or in part, with immediate effect upon written notice.

8. Data Access and Volume Metrics

8.1. Within Subscription Plans, Maltego grants access to a wide variety of Data Sources measured in different volume metrics (e.g. number of credits or number of messages). These volume metrics refer to a unit of time (e.g. monthly) and reset after that time period. “Credit" means, if available, units that are redeemable against different volume metrics. Credit charges and pricing structure around volume metrics may change throughout subscription term. Volume metrics that have not been used within the time limits expire and cannot be transferred or extended to another time period. Customer may not request any refund of expired or unused volume metrics. The exact data sources that Maltego accesses may vary from time to time.

8.2. Maltego does not validate, verify, monitor, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, availability, or timeliness of any data obtained through the Software or the Transform Hub. All Data Access is provided “as available” from third party sources. Customer is solely responsible for evaluating and verifying any data or results obtained through the Software before relying on them for any purpose.

9. Support and Services

9.1. For the duration of each Subscription Plan, Maltego provides support by the following means (“Standard Support”):

• Maltego provides support via its ticketing system, and all support requests must be submitted through this portal; Maltego will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
  https://docs.maltego.com/support/tickets/new.

• Maltego provides an online documentation portal for further resources and guidance.
  https://support.maltego.com/de/support/home
  The Standard Support is provided at no additional cost.

9.2. Customer may order additional support services or other Accompanying Services (such as transform writing, integration consulting, onboarding, deployment support or learning and training units). The scope and pricing of such additional services shall be defined in separate Order Forms, which Maltego may provide upon Customer’s request. Pricing for additional services may vary depending on the Subscription Plan to which Customer has subscribed.

9.3. Maltego provides training and learning sessions on the usage and functionalities of the Software as described on Maltego’s website: https://www.maltego.com/learning/ (“Training Courses”). Maltego will provide the agreed training sessions within the Subscription Term, on a date agreed with Customer. At the end of the Subscription Term, if no training sessions have taken place, due to failure to agree on a date, Maltego will be released from the obligation to provide the training session, without any liability to the Customer. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer shall not be granted any refunds.

9.4. Maltego may, at its sole discretion, develop and release updates of the Software, including but not limited to security updates, performance improvements and feature enhancements. However, Maltego is under no obligation to create, release or maintain any updates. Security updates or other improvements will be made available for the most recent versions of the Software only. Maltego reserves the right to restrict or disable access to outdated versions of the Software with reasonable prior notice, which will be communicated via in-product messaging and/or on Maltego’s official support page/channels. In any event, Maltego shall have no obligation to provide any support, maintenance or compatibility assurances for any previous versions of the Software once an update for the Software is available.

10. Order Process

a) Maltego Webshop: If Customer subscribes to a Subscription Plan online via Maltego’s website, Customer makes a binding offer by completing and submitting the online order form and confirming to accept these License Terms. The subscription shall become effective, as soon as Maltego sends via e-mail an explicit declaration of acceptance to Customer. An automatic order confirmation of Maltego does not constitute a declaration of acceptance. In any case, the invoice sent by Maltego to Customer constitutes a declaration of acceptance.

b) Order Form: may subscribe to Subscription Plans by way of Order Form: If Customer has requested a quotation from Maltego or has sent a purchase request to Maltego, Maltego will provide an Order Form including License Terms. The order shall become effective, by returning the signed Order Form, latest by provision of access.

13.1. At any time, Customer may subscribe additional Users or services under an active Subscription Plan by submitting a written order form or by submitting a request in Maltego´s admin tool. If Customer adds users or services during a running Subscription, Customer shall pay the pro-rated fees for the additional Users calculated from the date of activation through the end of the current Subscription Term. The per-User fee shall be calculated based on the then-current pricing for the applicable Subscription Plan. Should the Subscription Plan end with the expiry of the current Subscription Term, the user rights of all Users will simultaneously end with the end of the current Subscription Term, even if Users have been added during the Subscription Term. Should the Subscription Plan be prolonged according to Section 11.2, all Users that are active at the time of renewal will be included in the renewed Subscription Plan for the next Subscription Term at the then-applicable pricing.

17.5. Neither Party may bring a claim under these License Terms more than twelve (12) months after the event that creates the action or claim.

18. Confidentiality

18.1. The Parties are obligated to maintain strict confidentiality of all confidential information disclosed or handed over and/or otherwise made accessible during the cooperation and the execution of these License Terms.

18.4.

18.5. The Party receiving the Confidential Information may disclose to any courts and/or other authorities Confidential Information that is and/or will be required pursuant to applicable governmental and/or administrative and/or public law, rule, regulation and/or order.

18.6. If Customer is provided with access data (such as logins, passwords, etc.), Customer will keep all access data strictly confidential and will refrain from passing it on to any unauthorized party. The Customer will take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect access data against unauthorized use by third parties, including but not limited to implementing password policies in accordance with industry standards.

Customer shall be liable for all use of the Software under its credentials, whether authorized or unauthorized, except where such unauthorized use results from a security breach attributable to Maltego.

19. Warranty

19.1. Maltego provides the Software “as is” without any warranties. Maltego disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, including warranties for any particular purpose, non-infringement and accuracy. Maltego makes no guarantees regarding the accuracy of results or output from the Software. To the extent legally required warranties cannot be disclaimed under applicable law, which are limited to the shortest period permitted by law.

19.2. Maltego is not obligated to provide installation or configuration services, except as specifically agreed in writing. Certain products may have specific delivery methods and activation procedures. Maltego does not warrant that Customer’s hardware and software environment meets the Software requirements. The Documentation specifies the system requirements for running the Software.

19.3. Customer must promptly inspect the Software for obvious defects and immediately report any defects to Maltego through Maltego’s designated ticketing system (currently available at https://docs.maltego.com/support/tickets/new), or through any successor portal as Maltego may designate. The same applies if any such defect is subsequently discovered. Providing Software by internet download or Data Access via the Transform Hub constitutes delivery under this section.

19.4. Software defects must be reported in writing (including via ticketing system or e-mail) with a detailed description of the error symptoms and, where possible, supporting evidence such as digital recordings, screenshots, Software log files, or other documents demonstrating the defects. The notification of the defect must include sufficient specificity such that the error can be reproduced.

20. Data Protection

20.1. To the extent that either Party transmits or receives personal data under these License Terms, each Party shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations governing data privacy and the lawful processing of personal information. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party if it determines that it can no longer fulfil its obligations under applicable privacy or data protection laws.

20.2. Each party agrees that it is a “controller” with respect to such data as defined in the GDPR. Where Maltego processes personal data on behalf of the Customer, such processing is governed by the Data Processing Agreement (including, where required, the applicable modules of the Standard Contractual Clauses module 3 and 4, depending on Customer’s location) (“DPA”). The DPA is incorporated into these terms by reference and the execution of this License Terms and/or any Order Form shall be deemed execution of the DPA. Where the Parties have agreed and executed a bespoke data processing agreement, such agreement (together with its annexes) shall replace the standard DPA/SCC. In the event of any conflict between the DPA/SCC and other provisions of these License Terms, the DPA/SCC shall prevail.

21. Maltego Affiliates Products

21.1. The Parties acknowledge and agree that certain solutions of Maltego offerings may be made available by Maltego Affiliates rather than by Maltego itself. Additional product specific terms may apply to certain additional solutions as Maltego may specify from time to time and may be made available electronically within the product.

21.2. For purposes of these License Terms, “Affiliate” or “Maltego Affiliate” shall mean any person that controls, is controlled by or is in common control with Maltego from time to time.

22. Third-party services

Depending on the Subscription Plan, the Software and the Accompanying Services may contain links to or otherwise may allow Customer to connect to and use, certain third-party products, services or software under separate terms and conditions of these third-party providers (collectively, “Third-party Service”). This includes but is not limited to Data Access provided through the Transform Hub from Data Partners and other third-party data sources. Customer accepts that its use of said Third-party Services is governed solely by the terms and conditions of such Third-party Service, and Maltego does not endorse nor is responsible for such Third-party Service. Maltego makes no representations or warranties with respect to any Third-party Services and is not liable for any damage or loss arising from or in connection with Customer’s access or use of any such Third-party Service. It is the Customer´s sole responsibility to verify whether such use is permissible under the law applicable to the Customer. Customer acknowledges that Maltego does not control the features and functionality of any Third-party Service and that such Third-party Service may change its features and functionality without any notice to Maltego.

23. Miscellaneous

23.1. Assignment. Neither Party may assign its rights or obligations under these License Terms without the prior written consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, Maltego may, without consent, assign these License Terms as a result of a merger, consolidation or a sale of all or substantially all of its assets or stock, including as part of any internal reorganization process.

23.2. License Terms priority. These License Terms shall take precedence over any other terms, conditions of purchase, shrink-wrap, click-wrap, pen and ink changes etc. provided by Customer directly or indirectly via third parties (“Additional Terms”), even if use of such Additional Terms require an affirmative “acceptance” from Maltego before any kind of access or “move on” process is permitted. All such Additional Terms shall be of no force or effect and shall be deemed rejected by Maltego in their entirety. The same applies to any conflicting terms and conditions contained in subsequent order forms issued by Maltego under these License Terms, unless the Parties expressly agree otherwise in writing by means of an addendum to these License Terms.

23.3. Written Amendments Only. All amendments or additions to these License Terms must be in writing (document with electronic signature is sufficient) and, for Maltego, must be made by an authorized person who explicitly states that the amendment modifies the Agreement. This requirement applies even to any waiver of this requirement.

23.4. Force Majeure. Neither Party or Affiliate will be in default for failing to perform any obligation hereunder, save in relation to its payment obligations, to the extent such failure is caused solely by supervening conditions beyond the Parties’ respective reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of God, civil commotion, strikes, terrorism, failure of third party networks or the public Internet, power outages, industry-wide labour disputes or governmental demands or restrictions, including any restrictions imposed in course of a pandemic.

23.5. Severability. Should one or more provisions of these License Terms or other written agreements be or become invalid or unenforceable, this shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. In place of the invalid or unenforceable provision, such legally valid and enforceable provision shall apply which reflects as closely as commercially possible the spirit and purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision.

23.6. Place of Performance. The place of performance for all services arising from contracts between the Parties is the seat of Maltego.
