# Code Goals

My goal is to produce free software. ‘Free’ as in freedom or libre. That means I and the software I write respect your privacy and rights. Spounds great but what does that mean? Let’s take a look at the definition of free software by gnu.org - free software :

> A program is free software if the program’s users have the four essential freedoms:

> > 0. The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).
> > 1. The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
> > 2. The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
> > 3. The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

So basically you are free to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve my software.
