revo If I buy a license and your servers stop working or if my website does not connect to your server, the license key will not work and I will have to use the free version?
If, for example, your server / database ceases to exist, the license key will never work again?
Hi. Files gallery always starts fully licensed, until our server responds. This means that if our server fails to respond, or if we take the server down, or even if your internet is not working, your Files gallery will be considered licensed. I don't think it's useful to offer a premium application that depends on a connection to our server.
Also, the license check is "non-blocking", which means the app does need to wait for it to load. It's a separate thread, and if it fails, the app simply remains licensed. Some more info:

Also, upon license verification, a "key" will be stored in browser (localStorage) so that it does not make any further auth requests (until you "clear browser data").

Everything will still work! If our server goes down, all Files galleries will actually default to "licensed".
