Licence text

This is a CONTRACT between you (either an individual or a single entity) and

ShippySoft, which covers your use of "[PRODUCTNAME]" and related software

components. All such software is referred to herein as the "Software

Product." A software license and a product key or serial number ("Software

Product License"), issued to a designated user only by ShippySoft or its

authorized agents, is required for each user of the Software Product. If you

do not agree to the terms of this EULA, then do not install or use the

Software Product or the Software Product License. By explicitly accepting

this End-User License Agreement (EULA) you are acknowledging and agreeing

to be bound by the following terms:


1. EVALUATION LICENSE WARNING


This Software Product can be used in conjunction with a free evaluation

Software Product License. If you are using such an evaluation Software

Product License, you may use the Software Product only to evaluate its

suitability for purchase. Evaluation Software has been limited in some way

either through timeouts, disabled save or restricted use. ShippySoft

BEARS NO LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM USE (OR ATTEMPTED

USE AFTER EXPIRATION) OF THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT AND HAS NO DUTY TO PROVIDE

ANY SUPPORT BEFORE OR AFTER THE EXPIRATION DATE OF AN EVALUATION LICENSE.


2. GRANT OF NON-EXCLUSIVE LICENSE


ShippySoft grants the non-exclusive, non-transferable right for a

single user or household to use this Software Product. Each additional

user or household of the Software Product requires an additional Software

Product License. A household is defined as you, your spouse, and any

dependents living within your residence.


When the source code is provided with the Software Product, ShippySoft

grants you the right to modify, alter, improve, or enhance the Software

Product without limitation, except as described in this EULA.


Although rights to modification of the Software Product are granted by

this EULA, you may not tamper with, alter, or use the Software Product

in a way that disables, circumvents, or otherwise defeats its built-in

licensing verification and enforcement capabilities. The right to

modification of the Software Product also does not include the right

to remove or alter any trademark, logo, copyright or other proprietary

notice, legend, symbol or label in the Software Product.


Any modifications made to the Software Product will render it

non-supportable by ShippySoft. You may, at your discretion, submit

changes back to ShippySoft and if they are incorporated into the

Software Product then the changes will become supported by ShippySoft

and ownership of the patch is transferred to ShippySoft. You may

not distribute or redistribute changes made to the Software Product to

anyone other than ShippySoft.


Although the source code for the Software Product may be included, you may

not share, use, or reuse the knowledge or technologies in other applications

without explicit approval from ShippySoft.


You may make copies of the Software Product as is reasonably necessary for

its use. Each copy must reproduce all copyright and other proprietary

rights notices on or in the Software Product.


You may install each Software Product License on a single computer

system. A second installation of the same Software Product License may

be made on one other computer system, so long as both copies of the same

Software Product License never come into concurrent use. You may also make

copies of the Software Product License as necessary for backup and/or

archival purposes. Backup and archival copies may not come into active

use with the Software Product for any purpose. No other copies may be made.

Each copy must reproduce all copyright and other proprietary rights notices

on or in the Software Product License. You may not modify or create

derivative copies of the Software Product License.


All rights not expressly granted to you are retained by ShippySoft.


3. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS RESERVED BY SHIPPYSOFT


The Software Product is owned by ShippySoft and is protected by United

States and international copyright laws and treaties, as well as other

intellectual property laws and treaties. You must not remove or alter

any copyright notices on any copies of the Software Product. This

Software Product copy is licensed, not sold. You may not use, copy,

or distribute the Software Product, except as granted by this EULA,

without written authorization from ShippySoft or its designated

agents. Furthermore, this EULA does not grant you any rights in connection

with any trademarks or service marks of ShippySoft. ShippySoft

reserves all intellectual property rights, including copyrights, and

trademark rights.


4. NO RIGHT TO TRANSFER


You may not rent, lease, lend, or in any way distribute or transfer any

rights in this EULA or the Software Product to third parties without

ShippySoft's written approval, and subject to written agreement

by the recipient of the terms of this EULA.


5. INDEMNIFICATION


You hereby agree to indemnify ShippySoft against and hold harmless

ShippySoft from any claims, lawsuits or other losses that arise out

of your breach of any provision of this EULA.


6. THIRD PARTY RIGHTS

with a separate license agreement is licensed to you under the terms of

that license agreement. This license does not apply to those portions of

the Software Product. Copies of these third party licenses are included

in all copies of the Software Product.


7. SUPPORT SERVICES

FOR THESE MATERIALS AND ASSUMES NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR

provides to you as part of the support services, in periodic updates

to the Software Product or otherwise, is to be considered part of the

Software Product and is subject to the terms and conditions of this EULA.


With respect to any technical information you provide to ShippySoft

and development. ShippySoft will not use such technical information

in a form that personally identifies you without first obtaining your

permission.
