License Agreement
IMPORTANT - READ CAREFULLY: This AqiStar ("AqiStar") End-User License Agreement
("EULA") is a legal agreement between you (“Licensee”), a developer of software
applications, and AqiStar for the AqiStar software product accompanying this EULA,
which includes computer software and may include associated source code, media,
printed materials, and "on-line" or electronic documentation ("SOFTWARE PRODUCT").
By installing, copying, or otherwise using the SOFTWARE PRODUCT, you agree to be
bound by the terms of this EULA. If you do not agree to the terms of this EULA,
do not install, use, distribute in any manner, or replicate in any manner, any part,
file or portion of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT.
The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is protected by copyright laws and international copyright
treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties. The SOFTWARE
PRODUCT is licensed, not sold.
The Licensee is considered to be an authorized licensee (“Authorized”) if the Licensee
has legitimately obtained a registered license for the SOFTWARE PRODUCT from AqiStar
or an authorized AqiStar reseller.
RIGOROUS ENFORCEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. If the licensed right
of use for this SOFTWARE PRODUCT is purchased by the Licensee with any intent to
reverse engineer, decompile, create derivative works, and the exploitation or unauthorized
transfer of, any AqiStar intellectual property and trade secrets, to include any
exposed methods or source code where provided, no licensed right of use shall exist,
and any products created as a result shall be judged illegal by definition of all
applicable law. Any sale or resale of intellectual property or created derivatives
so obtained will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of all local, federal and international
law.
GRANT OF LICENSE. This EULA, if legally executed as defined herein, licenses
and so grants the Licensee the following rights:
Evaluation. If the downloaded SOFTWARE PRODUCT is designated as an Evaluation
Release (“Evaluation Release”), the Licensee is granted a license for a period of
only twenty-one (21) days after installation of the Evaluation Release of the SOFTWARE
PRODUCT ("Evaluation Period"). After the Evaluation Period, the Licensee must either:
- Delete the SOFTWARE PRODUCT and all related files from ALL computers onto which
it was installed or copied, or
- Contact AqiStar or one of its authorized resellers to purchase the SOFTWARE PRODUCT.
The Licensee may use the Evaluation Release of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT for evaluation
purposes only. The Licensee may not distribute ANY of the files, in any form or
manner, provided with the Evaluation Release of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT to ANY PARTIES.
Development. AqiStar grants the Licensee the non-exclusive license to install
and use multiple copies of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT or any prior version for the sole
purpose of developing any number of end user applications that operate in conjunction
with the SOFTWARE PRODUCT. If the Licensee is not Authorized, the Licensee may not
use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT beyond the Evaluation Period.
If the Licensee has purchased a single developer license (“Single Developer License”),
the Licensee is Authorized to use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT indefinitely beyond the Evaluation
Period. A Single Developer License for the SOFTWARE PRODUCT may not be shared or
used concurrently by more than one individual developer. In a project that uses
the SOFTWARE PRODUCT, each individual developer on the project requires a separate
Single Developer License, regardless of whether they directly use the component
or not. Single Developer Licenses may also be obtained in team discount packs.
If the Licensee has purchased an company license (“Company License”), all developers
in the Licensee's organization, regardless of location, are considered Authorized
according to the terms and conditions of the Single Developer License.
Duplication and Distribution. The SOFTWARE PRODUCT may include certain files
("Redistributables") intended for distribution by the Licensee to the users of programs
the Licensee creates. Redistributables include, for example, those files identified
in printed or electronic documentation as redistributable files, or those files
pre-selected for deployment by an install utility provided with the SOFTWARE PRODUCT
(if any). In any event, the Redistributables for the SOFTWARE PRODUCT are only those
files specifically designated as such by AqiStar.
Subject to all of the terms and conditions in this EULA, if the Licensee is Authorized,
AqiStar grants the Licensee the non-exclusive, royalty-free license to duplicate
the Redistributables and to distribute them solely in conjunction with software
products developed by the Licensee that use them. The Licensee may not supply any
means by which end users could incorporate the SOFTWARE PRODUCT or portions thereof
into their own products.
Storage/Network Use. The Licensee may also store or install a copy of the
SOFTWARE PRODUCT on a storage device, such as a network server, used only to install
or run the SOFTWARE PRODUCT on the the Licensee’s other computers over an internal
network; however, the Licensee must acquire and dedicate a Single Developer License
for each separate individual developer who wishes to use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT.
