PictoColor
Corporation
Software Single User License
Agreement and Limited Warranty
1. NOTICE.
This PictoColor Single User License Agreement ("SULA") is a legal
agreement for the PictoColor Software Product in which this SULA is
contained, which includes computer software and may include
associated media, printed materials, and "online" or electronic
documentation (collectively the "Software Product"), between you and
PictoColor Software. ("PictoColor"). By installing, copying, or
otherwise using the Software Product, you agree to be bound by the
terms of this SULA. You must indicate your agreement to be bound by
the terms of this SULA by pressing the "I ACCEPT" button on the
Software Product's installation program, or else you will not be
able to install the Software Product.
If you do not agree to the
terms of this SULA, you may not install or use the Software Product;
you may, however, within 30 days of your initial purchase of a copy
of the Software Product, return the entire copy of the Software
Product (including all computer media, packaging and documentation)
either to PictoColor's Customer Service department or to the
retailer from which you purchased the Software Product, for a refund
of the amount indicated by your sales receipt for the Software
Product, in which event your rights under this SULA are immediately
terminated. If you are installing the Software Product on a computer
that is not owned by you, you are bound to the terms of this SULA
both in your individual capacity and as an agent of the owner of the
computer, and your actions will bind the owner of the computer. You
represent and warrant to PictoColor that you have the capacity and
authority to enter into this Agreement on your own behalf as well as
on behalf of the owner of the computer the Software Product is being
installed upon. For purposes of this SULA, the "owner" of a computer
is the individual or entity that has legal title to the computer or
that has the possessory interest in the computer if it is leased or
loaned by the actual title owner.
2. COPYRIGHT.
The Software Product is protected by copyright laws and
international copyright treaties, as well as other intellectual
property laws and treaties. All title and copyrights in and to the
Software Product (including but not limited to any images and
photographs incorporated into the Software Product) are owned by
PictoColor or its suppliers.
3. GRANT OF
LICENSE.
The Software Product is licensed, not sold. Subject to the condition
that you are in compliance with the terms of this SULA you may
install and use one copy of the Software Product on a single
computer for use by a single simultaneous operator. No other use,
copying or distribution of the Software Product is permitted. You
may not rent the Software Product, nor may you offer use of it to
others through an Internet online service or application service
provider. If you are installing this copy of the Software Product as
an upgrade, update, patch or enhancement previous release of the
same Software Product which was installed on the same computer, your
rights under the previous license agreement for the Software Product
are terminated, and all of your use of the Software Product
(including its previous versions) are solely under the terms of this
license agreement.
4. LIMITATIONS.
Except to the extent that such a restriction is unenforceable under
local law, you may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble
the Software Product. The Software Product is licensed as a single
product, and its component parts may not be separated for use on
more than one computer. You may not modify, amend, or create
derivative works of the Software Product.
5. TERM.
If the Software Product that was distributed to you was labeled as
an DEMO VERSION, EVALUATION VERSION, TRIAL VERSION, or TRY & BUY
VERSION (or its functional equivalent) (an "Evaluation Version"),
the license granted under this SULA commences upon the installation
of the Software Product and is effective for the term of the
evaluation or trial following the date you install the Software
Product (the "Evaluation Term"). Evaluation Version Software
Products may include software code intended to disable their
functionality after the expiration of the Evaluation Term. You may
take no actions to circumvent the operation of such disabling code,
and you accept all risks that might arise from such disabling code.
If the Software Product was not distributed as an Evaluation
Version, or if you converted an Evaluation Version installation of
the Software Product to a non-Evaluation Version of the Software
Product by authorized use of the conversion mechanism provided with
the Software Product (in each case either being or resulting in a
"Full-License Version"), the licenses granted under this SULA
commence upon the installation of the Software Product and are
effective in perpetuity unless terminated as per the terms of this
Agreement.
6. TERMINATION.
Upon the expiration of the Evaluation Term (if any), your rights
under this SULA terminate automatically without notice from
PictoColor. Without prejudice to any other rights, PictoColor may
terminate this SULA or your rights under this SULA at any time if
you fail to comply with the terms and conditions of this SULA. Upon
termination of your rights under this SULA for any reason, or upon
termination of the SULA itself, you must destroy all copies of the
Software Product and all of its component parts in your possession
(including all component parts, the media and printed materials, any
previous versions, and this SULA). The terms of this paragraph shall
survive any termination of this SULA.
7. TRANSFER.
You may NOT transfer all of your rights under this SULA (except if
your rights are in an Evaluation Version).
8. LIMITED
WARRANTY.
The warranties and disclaimers described in this paragraph are
collectively the "Limited Warranty". PictoColor warrants to you (and
only you) that the Software Product will perform substantially in
accordance with the accompanying documentation (if any) for a period
of ninety (90) days from the date of original purchase of a license
to the Software Product from an authorized retailer or directly from
PictoColor (or the date you have obtained authorization from
PictoColor or an authorized retailer to convert an Evaluation
Version to a Full-License Version) (in each case the "Purchase
Date"). Implied warranties on the Software Product, to the extent
required by applicable law, are limited to ninety (90) days from the
Purchase Date. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an
implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to
you. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, PICTOCOLOR
AND ITS SUPPLIERS DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS WITH
REGARD TO OR ARISING OUT OF THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT, EITHER EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT
AND/OR ACCURACY OF INFORMATION. The Limited Warranty is void if
failure of the Software Product has resulted from accident, abuse,
misapplication, use of the Software Product other than as described
in the documentation issued by PictoColor, use of the Software
Product in combination with other Software Products that are not
described as compatible in the documentation issued by PictoColor,
or your breach of the terms of this SULA. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary
from State to State. No individual (except a duly authorized officer
of PictoColor) and no reseller or retailer has any authority to
amend or add to any of the above representations and disclaimers.
9. YOUR REMEDY.
Your exclusive remedy for any breach of the Limited Warranty is for
you to give us notice of the breach by returning to PictoColor (at
the address shown below) a copy of your purchase receipt for your
copy of the Software Product and a description of the alleged
breach, and then, at PictoColor's discretion, PictoColor shall
either: (a) return the price you paid (if any) for the Software
Product (at which time your rights under this SULA are deemed to
have terminated); or (b) repair or replace the
Software
Product. The Limited Warranty period for any replacement Software
Product will be extended for the remainder of the original warranty
period or thirty (30) days after the replacement Software Product is
delivered to you, whichever is longer. If your license is for an
Evaluation Version, your exclusive remedy for any breach of this
SULA, including a breach of the Limited Warranty, shall be to
terminate your rights under this SULA. Your remedies described in
this paragraph are your exclusive remedies, and shall not be deemed
to fail in their essential purpose so long as PictoColor is willing
to repair or replace the Software Product or return the price you
paid for the Software Product.
10. LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL
PICTOCOLOR OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,
INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS
INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY
LOSS) ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE
PRODUCT, EVEN IF PICTOCOLOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES. IN ANY CASE, PICTOCOLOR'S ENTIRE LIABILITY UNDER ANY
PROVISION OF THIS SULA SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT
ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU FOR THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT OR US$5.00. Some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not
apply to you.
11. STATEMENT
CONCERNING U.S. GOVERNMENT USERS.
The Software Product is commercial computer software developed
exclusively at private expense, and in all respects is proprietary
data belonging to PictoColor or its suppliers. The Software Product
is comprised of "commercial computer software" and "commercial
computer software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R
§ 12.212. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. § 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. §
227.7202-1 through § 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government licensees
acquire the Software Product with only those rights set forth in
this SULA.
12. SITE LICENCES.
The owner of the computer that you are installing the Software
Product upon may have entered into a broad license agreement with
PictoColor governing the use of certain PictoColor products
including this Software Product. To the extent that the owner of the
computer has entered into such an agreement that specifically states
that it governs the use of the Software Product on computers owned
by the owner, then any conflict between that agreement and this SULA
shall be resolved in favor of the terms of that agreement, but
otherwise this SULA shall simultaneously govern your license to the
Software Product.
13. THIRD PARTY
WORKS.
To the extent that any third party's intellectual property is
incorporated within the Software Product, you agree that such third
party is a third-party beneficiary of the terms of this SULA to the
extent of the third party's license to PictoColor.
14. SAMPLES.
The Software Product may be provided with certain "Sample Images"
intended to demonstrate use of the Software Product or provide a
base starting point for use of the Software Product. If Sample
Images are provided, they are considered part of the Software
Product for purposes of this SULA.
15. GENERAL.
This SULA constitutes the entire agreement between you and
PictoColor concerning the Software Product. No terms of any purchase
order, acceptance, purported amendment, or any document or
communication other than an agreement expressly agreed upon in
writing by a duly authorized officer of PictoColor shall replace,
modify, amend or override this SULA. If any provision of this SULA
is held to be unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be
reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and
such decision shall not affect the enforceability of such provision
under other circumstances, or of the remaining provisions hereof
under all circumstances. No waiver by PictoColor of any breach of
any term or provision of this SULA shall be construed to be a waiver
of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other term
or provision hereof. Our various rights and remedies hereunder shall
be construed to be cumulative and no one of them is exclusive of any
other or of any right or remedy allowed by law or in equity. This
SULA shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of Minnesota, USA (without regard to its choice of law
principles), except to the extent the local law of your local
jurisdiction requires use of your local jurisdiction's law, and
shall benefit PictoColor, its successors and assigns. ANY CLAIM OR
DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND PICTOCOLOR OR AGAINST ANY AGENT, EMPLOYEE,
SUCCESSOR OR ASSIGNEE OF PICTOCOLOR, WHETHER RELATED TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE, AND ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE RELATED TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP OR DUTIES CONTEMPLATED UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE VALIDITY OF THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE, SHALL
BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION BY THE NATIONAL ARBITRATION FORUM
TO BE HELD IN MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA UNDER ITS CODE OF PROCEDURE
THEN IN EFFECT. Any award of the arbitrator(s) may be entered as a
judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Except as may be
required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the
existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without
the prior written consent of both parties. Information concerning
such arbitration may be obtained, and claims may be filed, at any
office of the National Arbitration Forum or at P.O. Box 50191,
Minneapolis, MN 55405. The United Nations Convention on Contracts
for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this SULA.
