Without a running legal system, we have neither Free nor Open-Source Software. Only if the four rights have successfully been granted to us by the respective licenses, we do have, what we want to have: free accessible software. The duty of license fulfillment is the flip side of the coin: For preserving these rights, we must thoroughly try to fulfill the conditions these FLOSS licenses impose on us. You can’t have the cake and eat it.
Frontend
By calling this site via a browser, some Open-Source libraries are automatically delivered to the browser too. Therefore, we are obliged — roughly spoken — also to deliver the corresponding license and to name the copyright owner:
By calling our site, JavaScript libraries are delivered to your browser. Besides its own JavaScript libraries, WordPress brings and uses — by its own admission — seven open-source 3rd—party libraries. bootScore naturally operates on and with the Bootstrap JavaScript library. We are happy to fulfill the corresponding licensing conditions within the framework of the general JavaScript peculiarities:

Backend
*.fodina.de uses open-source programs in the backend — like WordPress and bootScore. We do not share this software, especially not with our readers. Thus, we do not have to provide compliance artifacts. Nevertheless, we point out with thanks that we use this free software. This also applies to the plugins we use:((In this table, we additionally mark whether the software passes on data to third parties (and would have to be mentioned in the privacy document), whether it is active in the production instance and whether it writes cookies to our user’s computer)).
