END-USER
LICENCE AGREEMENT FOR "ProDNC" and/or "ProDNC-Remote"
SOFTWARE - THE "SOFTWARE PRODUCT"
IMPORTANT
PLEASE READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS LICENCE AGREEMENT CAREFULLY
BEFORE CONTINUING WITH THIS PROGRAM DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL OR PURCHASE:
DNC Software Ltd's End-User licence Agreement ("EULA") is a legal agreement
between you (either an individual or a single entity) and DNC Software
Ltd for the DNC Software Ltd software product(s) identified above which
may include associated software components, media, printed materials,
and "online" 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. This licence agreement represents the entire
agreement concerning the program between you and DNC Software Ltd, (referred
to as "licencer"), and it supersedes any prior proposal, representation,
or understanding between the parties. If you do not agree to the terms
of this EULA, do not install or use 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 licenced, not sold.
1. GRANT
OF LICENCE.
The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is licenced as follows:
(a) Installation and Use.
DNC Software Ltd grants you the right to install and use copies of the
SOFTWARE PRODUCT on your computer running a validly licenced copy of the
operating system for which the SOFTWARE PRODUCT was designed [for example but not limited to, Windows
95, Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows 2003, Windows XP, Windows
ME, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows 11].
(b) Backup Copies.
You may also make copies of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT as may be necessary for
backup and archival purposes.
(c) Purchased Copies.
Any SOFTWARE PRODUCT that is purchased is unlocked by a binary cryptographic keyfile ("keyfile").
You need to buy, and we then supply one keyfile per copy of software sold. So if you need to install the software
on ONE standalone computer, you need ONE keyfile. If you need to run the software on FIVE standalone computers, you
need FIVE licences. If you install on a network, you need a single-licence for each connected computer that accesses the software.
(d) Chargebacks.
Performing a chargeback on any transaction past or present will result in the revocation of the grant of licence for all of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT
licences originally purchased from us in good faith until the matter is resolved. If a chargeback is not resolved
(by repurchasing the licence plus any associated chargeback fees incurred by us) we reserve the right to terminate the
grant of licence for all of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT licences. If a chargeback is not resolved then all copies of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT must be uninstalled and any copies destroyed.
(e) Upgrade From Previous Versions.
If you have previously purchased an earlier version of ProDNC Standard Edition then you
can upgrade to Version 5. If you want to upgrade
from Version 4 to Version 5, there is an upgrade fee of 50% of the new
Version 5 purchase price. As of January 1st 2020 we no longer support v4 ProDNC Standard Edition.
Note: Existing v4 keys will not work in v5 software without purchasing an upgrade to v5.
(e) Key replacements.
We will replace any same ProDNC version keyfile, free of charge for a period of 10 years from the date of original purchase, for whatever reason,
unless the intent is to obtain a new keyfile by fraudulent means, such as requesting new keyfiles
over and above the number of keyfiles you have purchased.
We will only replace the same version ProDNC keyfile free of charge. If you choose to upgrade from an
earlier Version 4 to Version 5, there is an upgrade fee of 50% of the new Version 5 purchase price. Should you require the company name to be different, perhaps because of a company buyout, company takeover or company rename, then there is a 50% purchase price cost for replacements.
Should you require a replacement key after a period of 10 years, then there is a 50% purchase price cost for replacements.
(f) Other.
By purchasing this SOFTWARE PRODUCT you are not entering into any real
or implied or any other kind of relationship with DNC Software Ltd in
any way. DNC Software Ltd has no joint venture, partnership, franchise,
licencing, distribution, employment, affiliation or agency relationship,
