Plain English Shareware License Agreement and Limited Warranty
(1) Introduction. This agreement explains when and how you may
use both shareware and registered copies of software products
from Salvisberg Software & Consulting. In this agreement:
* "Program" means the BOOT.SYS software product you have
purchased or obtained for evaluation, including the
software, associated documentation, and other materials;
* "Shareware Copy" means a copy of the Program distributed
by us or by our authorized agents for evaluation purposes
and which is described as an unregistered evaluation copy
in the Program's sign-on messages;
* "Registered Copy" means a copy of the Program purchased
from us or from a dealer, and which is described as an
unregistered evaluation copy in the Program's sign-on
messages;
* "we", "us", "our" refers to Salvisberg Software &
Consulting, a company based in Spiegel b. Bern,
SWITZERLAND; and
* "you" means the end user of the Program.
(2) Legal Agreement. This is a legal agreement which allows
you, the end user, to use the Program under certain terms and
conditions. If you cannot agree to abide by what this agreement
says you should not use or evaluate the Program.
(3) Copyright. The Program is fully protected by copyright
under national law and international treaty provisions.
(4) Evaluation Period. You may use a Shareware Copy of the
Program for an evaluation period of up to 30 days, in order to
determine whether the program meets your needs before purchasing
it. Once the evaluation period ends, you agree to either
purchase a Registered Copy of the Program, or to stop using it.
If you have ordered a Registered Copy of the Program from us or
from a dealer, you may continue to use your Shareware Copy until
your Registered Copy arrives.
(5) Use of the Program. While you are evaluating the Program,
you may use it on as many computers as are required to perform
your evaluation. Your 30-day evaluation period begins when you
first install the Program on one or more computers for evaluation
purposes. Once the evaluation period is over and you purchase
the program, your use is subject to the following restrictions:
(A) You agree not to install or use any individual copy of
the Program on more than one computer at a time. However,
you may install an individual copy simultaneously on one
computer at work, one computer at home, and one portable
computer, if all these computers are used primarily by the
same individual, and there is no possibility that the
computers will be in use at the same time except while you
are actively transferring files between them. (If the
Program was purchased by your employer you agree to get your
employer's explicit permission before installing the Program
on multiple computers as described above.)
(B) If you purchased a multi-system license for the Program
you agree not to install or use it on more computers than the
number included in your license, as shown on your invoice,
the program sign-on screen, or other documents from us.
(C) Network use: If you store the Program on a disk shared
among several computers, each computer using the Program is
considered using a distinct copy. The total number of copies
must not exceed the licensed number, even if not all copies
are in use at the same time.
(6) Making and Distributing Shareware Copies of the Program.
You may make copies of your Shareware Copy of the Program to give
to others, as long as you include all of the files that you
originally received with your Shareware Copy. When you give a
Shareware Copy of the Program to another person, you agree to
inform them that their copy is to be used for a time-limited
evaluation period, and that they must purchase a Registered Copy
if they continue to use the Program once the evaluation period
has ended. You agree not to sell Shareware Copies of the Program
or distribute them to others for any kind of compensation or fee
unless you abide by the restrictions in our VENDOR.DOC file.
(7) Copying Registered Copies of the Program. When you receive
a Registered Copy of the Program you may make copies of the
Program software which are necessary for normal backup purposes.
You agree not to make any other copies of the software, the
documentation or other materials, or any part of them, or sell,
give, or make available any copies to others, without our advance
written permission.
(8) Operation of the Program. The Program offers powerful
capabilities. If you do not follow our instructions, or if you
use the Program improperly, you can destroy files or cause other
damage to your software and data. You assume full responsibility
for the selection and use of the Program to achieve your intended
results.
(9) LIMITED WARRANTY: The following limited warranty applies to
Registered Copies of the Program. It is included here so you
understand what your warranty will be when you purchase a
Registered Copy. This warranty does NOT apply to Shareware
Copies of the Program.
Physical Defects. We pledge that the disks and manuals we send
you will arrive free of physical defects which interfere with
normal use. If you find such a defect and report it to us within
90 days after you purchase the Program, we agree to replace the
defective item(s) at no charge to you as long as the defect was
not caused by misuse or abuse.
Bugs and Program Errors. We don't promise that the Program will
be free of bugs or program errors. If you report a program error
or bug to us, we will use our best efforts to correct it. If we
issue a maintenance release for the Program which includes a
correction for an error you reported, we will send you a copy of
that maintenance release at no charge if you request it. We will
only do this for maintenance releases, not for new major releases
or other new versions of the Program.
Satisfaction Guarantee. If you are dissatisfied with any product
you buy from us under this Agreement for any reason, you may
return it at any time up to 90 days after purchase and we will
give you a refund. If the product is a JP Software product we
will give you a full refund. If it is not a JP Software product
we will give you a full refund if in our judgment the product is
returned in resellable condition, or a 50% refund if not.
Refunds will be based on the price you paid, less shipping costs.
You must contact us before returning any product for a refund.
This satisfaction guarantee does not apply to multi-system
licenses for more than 10 computers, or to purchases of more than
10 individual copies at one time.
(10) DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS. And now the legal language we
couldn't avoid:
DISCLAIMER FOR SHAREWARE COPIES: YOU ARE NOT PAYING FOR THE
TRIAL USE LICENSE FOR YOUR SHAREWARE COPY OF THE PROGRAM.
ACCORDINGLY THE SHAREWARE COPY IS PROVIDED "AS-IS" AND WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
DISCLAIMER FOR REGISTERED COPIES: Except for the limited warranty
stated above, we disclaim any and all other warranties, express
or implied, oral or written, including any implied warranties of
merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. The limited
warranty above gives you specific legal rights, but you may have
other rights, depending on where you purchased the program.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHATSOEVER ARISING
OUT OF USE OF THE PROGRAM OR YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH US. SOME
COUNTRIES OR STATES DO NOT ALLOW EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, THEREFORE THE
ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
