NetSoftware Solutions™ Software License Agreement

These Terms apply to any of the software developed by NetSoftware Solutions™ , used under licence

BY DOWNLOADING AND/OR USING SOFTWARE FROM OUR WEB SITE, THE INDIVIDUAL OR ENTITY LICENSING THE PRODUCT ("LICENSEE") IS CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY AND IS BECOMING A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT. IF LICENSEE DOES NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE LICENSEE MUST NOT INSTALL OR USE ANY OF THE SOFTWARE DEVELOPED BY NetSoftware Solutions™ .

1. LICENSE AGREEMENT. In this Agreement "Licensor" shall mean NetSoftware Solutions™  except under the following circumstances:

(i) if Licensee acquired the Product as a bundled component of a third party product or service, then such third party shall be Licensor; and

(ii) if any third party software is included as part of the default installation and no License is presented for acceptance the first time that third party software is invoked, then the use of that third party software shall be governed by this Agreement, but the term "Licensor," with respect to such third party software, shall mean the manufacturer of that software and not NetSoftware Solutions™ .

With the exception of the situation described in (ii) above, the use of any included third party software product shall be governed by the third party's License agreement and not by this Agreement, whether that License agreement is presented for acceptance the first time that the third party software is invoked, is included in a file in electronic form, or is included in the package in printed form.

If more than one License agreement was provided for the Product, and the terms vary, the order of precedence of those License agreements is as follows: a signed agreement, a License agreement available for review on the NetSoftware Solutions™ website, a printed or electronic agreement that states clearly that it supersedes other agreements, a printed agreement provided with the Product, an electronic agreement provided with the Product.

2. LICENSE GRANT.

Licensor grants Licensee a non-exclusive and non-transferable License to reproduce and use for personal or internal business purposes either the source code version of the Product in the case of DHTML/JavaScript or otherwise executable, provided any copy must contain all of the original proprietary notices.

This License does not entitle Licensee to receive from NetSoftware Solutions™  hard-copy documentation, technical support, telephone assistance, or enhancements or updates to the Product unless a specific Product has been purchased by the Licensee that clearly states otherwise.

Licensor warrants that it has the right to grant the foregoing license free and clear of third party intellectual property claims, and should any third party intellectual property claims arise Licensor will defend and hold Licensee harmless from such claims.

3. RESTRICTIONS.

(ii) redistribute, encumber, sell, rent, lease, sublicense, or otherwise transfer rights to the Product;

(iii) remove or alter any trademark, logo, copyright or other proprietary notices, legends, symbols or labels in the Product; or (iv) publish any results of benchmark tests run on the Product to a third party without Licensor's prior written consent.

4. FEES.

There is may be an annual License fee at the company's discretion for the Product as long as all action has been taken with regard to the Product instructions.

In case of non-commercial or none profit and the product is being used on a non-profit basis, then there may be no fees payable.

This will be clearly stated in the contract.

THE PRODUCT IS PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE OR ON A FEE BASED CONTRACT, AND, THEREFORE, ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE WARRANTIES THAT IT IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING.

THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PRODUCT IS BORNE BY LICENSEE. SHOULD THE PRODUCT PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, LICENSEE AND NOT LICENSOR OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR RESELLERS ASSUMES THE ENTIRE COST OF ANY SERVICE AND REPAIR.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR RESELLERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF, AND REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED.
