Terms of use

The terms that apply when you use Ferry and this website.

Effective November 14, 2026Windows · macOS · Linux · Android
At a glance

Ferry is free, open-source software provided as is under the MIT license. You're responsible for what you share and with whom. The Ferry name, icon and artwork belong to XenVault Interactive and aren't covered by the open-source license.

About these terms

These terms cover your use of the Ferry apps and this website, provided by XenVault Interactive (“we”, “us”). By using them you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use them. If you got Ferry from an app store, that store's terms apply too.

The software license

Ferry's source code is published under the MIT license, which lets you use, copy, change and distribute it under that license's conditions. Ferry includes third-party components under their own licenses, listed in its third-party notices. Nothing in these terms limits what those licenses allow.

The Ferry name and artwork

The name “Ferry” as the name of this app, its icon, the mascot artwork and this website's design belong to XenVault Interactive. They aren't covered by the MIT license. If you publish a modified version of Ferry, give it a different name and icon, and don't present it as ours.

What you share

You're responsible for the files you share and the links you send. Only share files you have the right to share, and don't use Ferry to break the law, infringe others' rights, or spread malware.

Anyone with a share link can download its files while you share them, so send links privately and stop sharing when you're done. Before opening received files, make sure you trust the sender. We can't see or control what is shared through Ferry.

Network and third-party services

Ferry connects devices with help from services run by others: n0's relays and discovery service, GitHub for desktop downloads and updates, Cloudflare for this website and the Android download, and Google Play. They're free to use but come with no guarantee: they can be slow, rate limited or unavailable, and they apply their own terms. You can use your own relay instead (Settings → Connections).

Ferry doesn't keep copies of shared files. Downloads depend on the sender's device being online with Ferry running.

No warranty

Ferry is provided free of charge, “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, as the MIT license says. Keep your own backups of important files: transfers can fail, and a received file may differ from what you expected if the sender changed it.

To the extent the law allows, XenVault Interactive isn't liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for loss of data, arising from your use of Ferry or this website. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can't be limited by law, or your mandatory rights as a consumer.

Privacy

The privacy policy explains what Ferry and this website send, and to whom.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms as Ferry changes, and we'll update the effective date when we do. Continuing to use Ferry after a change means you accept the new terms.
