Is HyperFormula free to use?

In a non-commercial or open-source project, yes: use it under the GPLv3, with gpl-v3 as its license key. Any other project needs a commercial HyperFormula license. HyperFormula is licensed separately from Handsontable DataGrid; the Bundle licenses the two together.

Does the Handsontable DataGrid license expire?

No — the license is perpetual for every version released while your support plan is active. After it lapses you keep shipping those versions; renewing restores access to updates and support.

Can I deploy on-prem or air-gapped?

Yes. Handsontable DataGrid is a client-side library with no phone-home or license server — it works in fully offline, on-prem and air-gapped environments.

Yes, we sign Data Processing Agreements on request. The library itself processes no end-user data — everything stays in your application.

What about per-MAU or per-row pricing?

There is none. Licensing is per developer seat — unlimited end users, unlimited rows, no runtime metering.

What you get in each product.

Handsontable DataGrid is the grid your users work in. HyperFormula is the formula engine, inside the grid or on its own. The Bundle licenses both under one agreement and one SLA.
