Certain words or phrases are defined to have certain meanings when used in this Agreement. Those words and phrases are defined below in Section 20.

Your agreement is with Visionect d.o.o, based in Slovenia, EU.

If you are separately licensed by Visionect under a Custom License, certain terms of this Agreement do not apply to your Custom Products.  Those terms are described below in Section 21.

1. License Grant

Visionect grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable (except as described in this Agreement) license to use, display, perform, and modify the Licensed Technology for any lawful purpose (the “License”).  However, the rights that Visionect grants you under the License are subject to the terms of this Agreement, and you may only make use of the License if you comply with all applicable terms.

The License becomes effective on the date you accept this Agreement.  The License does not grant you any title or ownership in the Licensed Technology.

(A) Allowed forms of Distribution and Sublicensing

You may only Distribute the Licensed Technology as follows:

  1. Distribution to end users – You may Distribute the Licensed Technology as an inseparable part of a Product to end users who are subject to an end user license agreement which explicitly disclaims any representations, warranties, conditions, and liabilities related to the Licensed Technology.  The Product may not contain any Tools.
  2. Distribution to other licensees – You may Distribute Licensed Technology (including as modified by you under the License) or any Content, to an Licensee who has rights under its license to the same Version of the Licensed Technology or Content that you are Distributing.
  3. Distributions to employees and contractors – You also may Distribute Licensed Technology and Content to an Licensee who is your employee or your contractor who does not have rights under their license to the same Content, but only to permit that Licensee to utilize that Content in good faith to develop a Product on your behalf for Distribution by you under the License, and not for the purpose of Content pooling or any other Distribution or sublicensing of Content that is not permitted under this Agreement.  Recipients of such a Distribution have a limited license to use, reproduce, display, perform, and modify that Content or Licensed Technology to develop your Product as outlined above, and for no other purpose.
  4. Distribution and sublicensing of Examples – You may Distribute or sublicense Examples (including as modified by you under the License) any third party.

(B) Other Restrictions

(i) Revenue

You may not generate revenue from Licensed Technology or Product. If you plan or are generating revenue from Licensed Technology or Product (i.e., by way of example, but not limitation, if you have developed a product on Licensed Technology, and are planning or are already selling it), you must purchase Visionect® Place & Play® Development Platform.

(ii) General Restrictions

You may not engage in any activity with respect to the Licensed Technology, including as incorporated into a Product, (1) that is in violation of any applicable law or regulation; (2) in which the Licensed Technology is rented or leased; (3) that misappropriates any of Visionect’s other products or services; (4) in support of a claim by you or any third party that the Licensed Technology infringes a patent.  You also may not sell or grant a security interest in the Licensed Technology.

2. User License

The Licensed Technology is licensed to you for use by a single User.  The Licensed Technology cannot be shared with others (including any other employees or agents) except through a permitted Distribution as described above.

Under the License, the User may use the Licensed Technology for as long as you comply with this Agreement.  If you are a legal entity, references to “you” in this agreement also apply to the User in all cases.  You are responsible for the User’s compliance with this Agreement.

If you are an Academic Institution, your use is not limited to a single User for any Licensed Technology.  Instead you may allow all users to use Licensed Technology under the License.  However, those users are not authorized under your License to Distribute or sublicense the Licensed Technology (including as incorporated in a Product).  For that, they must obtain a License of their own.

3. New Versions and Content

During the term of your License, you will be entitled to access future Versions of Tools that Visionect chooses to make available to you.  Visionect does not have any obligation to make new Versions of the Licensed Technology or new Tools available.  Nor does Visionect have any obligation to continue to make available for access or download any or all Versions of the Licensed Technology or Tools.  However, any Versions of the Licensed Technology and Content that Visionect has made available to you, and for which you have accepted any applicable amendment to this Agreement as described in Section 21, are considered part of the Licensed Technology and may be used under the License (as amended by that amendment).

4. Support

Visionect does not have any support obligations with respect to the Licensed Technology under this Agreement.  Support resources may be obtained at https://docs.visionect.com/.

5. Feedback and Contributions

If you provide Visionect with any Feedback, Visionect is free to use the Feedback however it chooses.  If you make any Contribution available to Visionect, you hereby assign to Visionect all right, title, and interest (including all copyright, patent, and other intellectual property rights) in that Contribution for all current and future methods and forms of exploitation in any country.  If any of those rights are not effectively assigned under applicable law, you hereby grant Visionect a non-exclusive, fully-paid, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable license to reproduce, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, make, use, have made, sell, offer to sell, import, modify and make derivative works based on, and otherwise exploit that Contribution for all current and future methods and forms of exploitation in any country.  If any of those rights may not be assigned or licensed under applicable law (such as moral and other personal rights), you hereby waive and agree not to assert all of those rights.  However, you may continue to freely use any Feedback that you provide to Visionect, and you may continue to use, in any manner consistent with the License, any Contribution that you make available to Visionect.

You understand and agree that Visionect is not required to make any use of any Feedback or Contribution that you provide.  You agree that if Visionect makes use of your Feedback or Contribution, Visionect is not required to credit or compensate you for your contribution.

You represent and warrant that you have sufficient rights in any Feedback or Contribution that you provide to Visionect to grant Visionect and other affected parties the rights described above.  This includes but is not limited to intellectual property rights and other proprietary or personal rights.

6. Third Party Software and Hardware

The Licensed Technology includes Third Party Software and Hardware components. By entering into this Agreement and using Third Party Software and Hardware, you are accepting the terms of respective licenses.  In this case, the Third Party Software and Hardware terms will govern your use of the Third Party Software and Hardware, and if there is inconsistency, those terms will take precedence over the terms of the License for the Third Party Software and Hardware.  You agree that the owners of the Third Party Software and Hardware are intended third party beneficiaries to this Agreement in relation to your uses of Third Party Software and Hardware.

7. Ownership

Visionect or its licensors own all title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in the Licensed Technology and Content.  You own all rights in the Products you develop under the License, other than the Licensed Technology and Content, Third Party Software and Hardware, and any Contributions.  All rights granted to you under this Agreement are granted by express license only and not by sale, and all of those rights are limited by the terms of this Agreement.  No license or other rights will be created hereunder by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.  Any attempted sublicense under this Agreement that is not consistent with the terms of this Agreement will be null and void.

8. Hardware and Usage Data

You acknowledge that, as a default setting, the Licensed Technology will collect and send to Visionect anonymous hardware and usage data from end users of Products.  This functionality is used by Visionect to improve the Licensed Technology.

9. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The Licensed Technology and all other materials and information provided by Visionect (the “Visionect Materials”) are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, “with all faults” and without warranty of any kind.  Visionect, its licensors, and its and their affiliates disclaim all warranties, conditions, common law duties, and representations (express, implied, oral, and written) with respect to the Visionect Materials, including without limitation all express, implied, and statutory warranties and conditions of any kind, such as title, non-interference with your enjoyment, authority, non-infringement, merchantability, fitness or suitability for any purpose (whether or not Visionect knows or has reason to know of that purpose), system integration, accuracy or completeness, results, reasonable care, workmanlike effort, lack of negligence, and lack of viruses, whether alleged to arise under law, by reason of custom or usage in the trade, or by course of dealing.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Visionect, its licensors, and its and their affiliates make no warranty that (1) any of the Visionect Materials will operate properly, including as integrated in any Product, (2) that the Visionect Materials will meet your requirements, (3) that the operation of the Visionect Materials will be uninterrupted, bug free, or error free in any or all circumstances, (4) that any defects in the Visionect Materials can or will be corrected, (5) that the Visionect Materials are or will be in compliance with a platform manufacturer’s rules or requirements, or (6) that a platform manufacturer will approve any of your Products, or will not revoke approval of any Product for any or no reason.  Visionect, its licensors, and its and their affiliates do not guarantee continuous, error-free, virus-free, or secure operation of or access to the Visionect Materials.  This paragraph will apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, neither Visionect, its licensors, nor its or their affiliates, nor any of Visionect’s service providers, shall be liable in any way for loss or damage of any kind resulting from the use or inability to use the Visionect Materials or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, including but not limited to loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all other commercial damages or losses.  In no event will Visionect, its licensors, nor its or their affiliates, nor any of Visionect’s service providers be liable for any loss of profits or any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or exemplary damages, or any other damages arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Visionect Materials, or the delay or inability to use or lack of functionality of the Visionect Materials, even in the event of Visionect’s or its affiliates’ fault, tort (including negligence), strict liability, indemnity, product liability, breach of contract, breach of warranty, or otherwise and even if Visionect or its affiliates have been advised of the possibility of such damages.  These limitations and exclusions regarding damages apply even if any remedy fails to provide adequate compensation.

Because some countries, states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in those countries, states or jurisdictions, the foregoing limitations of liability shall apply only to the full extent permitted by law.

10. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify, pay the defense costs of, and hold Visionect, its licensors, its and their affiliates, and its and their employees, officers, directors, agents, contractors, and other representatives harmless from all claims, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, costs, and expert witnesses’ fees) that arise from or in connection with (a) any claim that, if true, would constitute a breach by you of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any Distribution or sublicensing of the Licensed Technology in violation of this Agreement) or negligence by you, (b) any claim brought by any third party to whom you Distribute or sublicense the Licensed Technology in violation of this Agreement (including without limitation any claim that the Licensed Technology infringes a patent), (c) any claim that any Product or any other matter you created, or your exercise of the License, infringes any third party’s intellectual property rights or other proprietary or personal rights (except to the extent of any claim that your authorized use of unmodified Licensed Technology or Content originally provided to you by Visionect under this Agreement infringes any United States patent, trademark or copyright), or (d) any civil or criminal actions related to any Product.  You agree to reimburse Visionect on demand for any defense costs incurred by Visionect and any payments made or loss suffered by Visionect, whether in a court judgment or settlement, based on any matter covered by this Section 10.

If you are prohibited by law from entering into the indemnification obligation above, then you assume, to the extent permitted by law, all liability for all claims, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, costs and expert witnesses’ fees) that are the stated subject matter of the indemnification obligation above.

11. Export Compliance

You agree to comply with all applicable federal and foreign laws, regulations, and rules, and complete any required undertakings.  You will obtain any necessary export license or other governmental approval prior to accessing, downloading, exporting, re-exporting, or releasing the Licensed Technology.

  3. Termination for Patent Action.  The Agreement will terminate automatically as of the date you commence any claim that the Licensed Technology infringes a patent, or otherwise support any claim by a third party that the Licensed Technology infringes a patent.

You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of these courts.  You waive any claim of inconvenient forum and any right to a jury trial.  The Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply.  Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract shall be construed against the drafter will not apply to this Agreement.

14. Class Action Waiver
