2.3 If the License created by this EULA is revoked or terminated, the Licensee shall destroy all copies of the Licensed Product and Documentation within its control and power of procurement wheresoever and howsoever held including on all devices including, without limitation, computers, servers, and archival devices. If requested by the Licensor, the Licensee will confirm in writing when such copies have been destroyed and completed.
3. GRANT OF THE LICENSE
3.1 In consideration of the Licensee's promise to comply with the duties and obligations set out in this EULA, the Licensor grants the Licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferrable, revocable license to use the Licensed Product and Documentation.
3.2 The Parties agree that the License granted under Clause 3.1 above shall permit the use of the Licensed Product within the specifications and limits prescribed in the applicable Order.
3.3 Upon receipt of full payment from the Licensee or, a valid Order, subject to prior approval by the Licensor, the Licensor shall supply the Licensee with an authorization key, within five working days, that:
3.3.1. Activates the Master Server;
3.3.2. Permits the License to be used within the limits and specifications prescribed in the applicable Order; and
3.3.3. Permits the Reporting Console to interact with the Master Server for the purpose of initiating scans on Licensed Target Platforms and to review any available reporting information.
4. SCOPE OF THE LICENSE
4.1 Once downloaded, the Licensee may install and access the Licensed Product, including any modification or permitted upgrade (at no additional cost to Licensee) supplied by the Licensor. Once installed, the Licensee shall not use the Licensed Product to scan more than the maximum scannable data storage and/or the maximum count of scannable Target Platforms as defined in the applicable Order. The Licensee may only install the Licensed Product on supported platforms listed on the Licensor product documentation website located at https://www.groundlabs.com/documentation/.
4.2 Without prejudice to Clause 4.1 above, the Licensee may un-assign and re-assign licenses for the Licensed Product when a host machine is decommissioned and taken offline on a permanent basis.
4.3 The Licensee may make copies of the computer software part of the Licensed Product for offline back-up or archival purposes, but the copies shall be used for no other purpose.
4.4 The following acts shall be considered a breach of condition and, without prejudice to Clause 13.2 below, shall entitle the Licensor summarily to terminate all of the Licensee’s rights to use the Licensed Product, namely where the Licensee:
4.4.1. Uses the Licensed Product to provide a managed service to one or more third parties; or
4.4.2. Uses the functionality of un-assigning and re-assigning Licenses as a method of reducing its license requirements or attempting to circumvent licensing controls or manipulating the Licensed Product to exceed the applicable limits as outlined in the applicable Order; or

4.4.4. Sells the Licensed Product or any part of it to one or more third parties.

Scans that were scheduled prior to exceeding the data limit will continue to be executed. Once the data limit exceeds, the Licensed Product will operate in a reduced-functionality state, scan results are added to a backlog and viewing of such results are paused until additional Licenses are purchased.
4.6 The Licensee shall notify the Licensor of any over-consumption as per Clause 4.5 and the Licensee shall pay for the excess data on a pro-rata basis from the date the Licensee exceeded the data limit until the end of the Agreement Term as per the next price tier set out in the applicable Order.
4.7 Version downgrades are not supported for the Master Server as certain features, data sets, storage formats and/or components in newer versions of the Licensed Product may not be backward compatible. Downgrading a newer version of the Master Server datastore to an earlier version of the Licensed Product may leave the system in an undesired state.
5. THE LICENSEE’S DUTIES

5.2.2. Attempt to de-compile, reverse compile, disassemble, reverse engineer or otherwise reduce to human-perceivable form all or any part of the Licensed Product;

The Licensee shall be obligated to reimburse the Licensor for all costs incurred by Licensor in collecting any late payment of amounts due or related interest, including attorneys' fees, court costs and collection agency fees. The Licensor may suspend any technical support and software updates of the Licensed Product to Licensee until payment has been made in full.
6.3 If the scanning capacity and/or Master Server of the Licensed Product is to be increased, the Licensee shall issue a new PO to the Licensor as per the Additional Product fee(s) in the applicable Order.
6.4 Any fees for excessive data and/or additional Target Platforms will be billed on a pro-rata basis from the date the Licensee exceeded the applicable License limits until the end of the term, as demonstrated by the reporting provided quarterly by the Licensee to the Licensor. Invoicing for such excessive License limits will follow the quarterly reporting of such usage.
7. RIGHT TO TECHNICAL SUPPORT
7.1 By virtue of the License, the Licensee has a right to receive all permitted Licensed Product updates and upgrades throughout the EULA Term of the License. In addition, the License entitles the Licensee to receive online technical support including Documentation and knowledge based portal access.

8.1 The Licensor does not provide refunds, even if the Licensee shall terminate the EULA in compliance with Clause 13.2.

9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
9.1 The Licensee acknowledges that title to all the Intellectual Property Rights relating to the Licensed Product are owned by the Licensor, subject only to the rights of any third party software, modules, libraries, or the like, that may be incorporated, utilized, or referenced by the Licensed Product.

10.1 Each party shall, during the term of this EULA and thereafter, keep confidential all, and shall not use for its own purposes (other than implementation of the provisions of, and matters contemplated by, this EULA) nor without the prior written consent of the other disclose to any third party (except its professional advisors or as may be required by any law or any legal or regulatory authority) any, information of a confidential nature (including trade secrets and information of commercial value including pricing information) which may become known to such party from the other party and which relates to the other party or any of its affiliates, unless that information is public knowledge or already known to such party at the time of disclosure, or subsequently becomes public knowledge other than by breach of this licence, or subsequently comes lawfully into the possession of such party from a third party. Each party shall use its reasonable endeavours to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of any such information.
10.2 No party shall make, or permit any person to make, any public announcement concerning this EULA without the prior written consent of the other parties (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as required by law, any governmental or regulatory authority (including, without limitation, any relevant securities exchange), any court or other authority of competent jurisdiction.
10.3 The Licensed Product is intended to be fully operated by the Licensee, within the complete control of the Licensee’s site, systems, facilities, equipment or infrastructure, and therefore, Licensor neither requires nor has any access to any personally identifiable information (“Sensitive Information”) regardless whether such information is generated by the Licensee’s operation or use of the Licensed Product or otherwise, save that the Licensee may provide access to such Sensitive Information to Licensor for a specific business purpose or case-by-case trouble shooting investigation and technical support.
10.4 The parties do not expect that the Licensor will, in providing the Licensed Product, be required to process any Sensitive Information on behalf of the Licensee. In the event that the Licensee requires the Licensor to process any Sensitive Information on its behalf, the parties shall discuss and agree in good faith such additional clauses/agreements as are reasonably required to comply with requirements placed on each party by applicable data protection and the Licensor’s terms for the transmission and handling of such Sensitive Information. For the avoidance of doubt, this will include implementing regulatory requirements necessary for the processing of Sensitive Information, which at any time shall require the Licensee’s prior written consent.
10.5 Licensee further acknowledges and accepts that the helpdesk of Licensor does not, in the ordinary course of providing technical support to its clients, retain copies of any Sensitive Information it receives. Upon completion of such technical support requested by Licensee and provided by Licensor, the Parties agree and accept that the Licensor shall forthwith shred any copy of Sensitive Information it received, unless otherwise advised by Licensee.
10.6 The software component of the Licensed Product processes Sensitive Information and the Licensee, as the operator, is solely responsible for compliance with all relevant privacy and data protection laws in the relevant jurisdiction(s).

11.1 Licensor warrants that (a) no virus has been knowingly introduced or permitted to be introduced in any part of the Licensed Product; (b) it has taken precautions in accordance with the accepted industry practice to ensure that no virus is contained in any part of the Licensed Product; and (c) the Licensee shall be promptly notified should the Licensor detect or be made aware that a virus is contained in any part of the Licensed Product, in which case the Licensor shall provide all information reasonably requested by the Licensee in relation to such virus.
11.2 Save for the limited warranties in Clause 11.1, the Licensed Product is provided “as is” and all warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. In particular, the Licensor does not warrant that the functions contained in the Licensed Product will meet the Licensee’s requirements or that the operation of the software component of the Licensed Product will be uninterrupted or error-free. Nothing in this EULA shall limit or exclude any statutory rights that may be available to the Licensee, and any terms in this EULA that would be void or unenforceable under such legislation shall be severed from this EULA.
12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
12.1 In the event the download fails to deliver a functioning copy of the Licensed Product, the sole obligation of the Licensor is to replace the download or to supply a replacement on physical media. The Licensor shall not be liable for any loss or corruption of data, interruption of business, loss of profits or for any other direct or indirect damage arising from the use of the Licensed Product. Under no circumstances shall the total liability of the Licensor exceed the amount the Licensee paid for the license(s).

7. LICENSE
7.1 SUBSCRIPTION
The License for the Software is valid for the Initial Subscription Period and such Auto-renewals (as defined below), unless earlier terminated or expired (together the "Subscription Period"). The "Initial Subscription Period" shall be twelve (12) months from the commencement date of the initial subscription ("Commencement Date"), unless otherwise specified on a quotation or invoice issued by Ground Labs or its authorized partner. On the Commencement Date, the subscription ("Subscription") becomes effective when Ground Labs confirms the License is available for download via the Ground Labs online customer portal. Upon the earlier expiry or termination of the Initial Subscription Period, the Software will cease to function until a separate License has been purchased and a new license key issued, unless Auto-renewal is operative in accordance with Clause 7.2 below. Any portion of the License not used during the Subscription Period is forfeited and can not be rolled over into subsequent Subscriptions, regardless whether Auto-renewal is in force.
7.2 AUTO-RENEWAL
Unless you opt out of the automatic renewal of the Subscription ("Auto-renewal") in accordance with Clause 7.3, your License shall renew every year without any action on your part, for a further twelve (12) months, on each anniversary of the commencement date of the Initial Subscription Period (each Auto-renewal an "Auto-renewal Period" and together with each subsequent Auto-renewal Period following the 1st anniversary, the "Auto-renewal Periods"). Ground Labs may automatically charge the credit card for the Auto-renewal in question, fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of (a) the Initial Subscription Period or (b) any Auto-renewal Period, as the case may be. If the payment information provided by you is declined for settlement of any Auto-renewal, you need to provide Ground Labs new payment information promptly, or your access to the Software shall be suspended, albeit the License and the payment obligations shall continue in force unless and until (x) you opt out of Auto-renewal in accordance with Clause 7.3 or (y) terminated in accordance with Clause 10 below.
7.3 OPTING OUT OF AUTO RENEWAL
If you wish to opt out of Auto-renewal, you must email crrenewals@groundlabs.com and provide details of the License, of which you wish to opt out no less than thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the prevailing Auto-renewal Period.
7.4 SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE
Product updates are included throughout the Subscription Period. In addition, licensed customers are provided with online technical support including online Software documentation, and a help desk ticketing system for cases to be raised and responded to by Ground Labs support engineers.
7.5 LICENSING RESTRICTED BY HOST
A License is required for each host where the Software is to be used. This may include desktops, servers, notebooks/laptops, physical hosts or logical virtual hosts, depending on the License and/or version of the Software. Customers are required to provide Ground Labs with a list of Hostnames or the Network Mac Addresses for each host requiring a License. This information is entered by the customer using the Ground Labs online customer support portal after a License has been purchased.
Customers may elect to provide host information at a later time after purchasing has been completed. This enables customers to purchase licenses in quantity without immediately requiring the details of each host to be licensed.
A license file is issued for each order of the Software. For example if you have placed a single order for 100 host licenses, a single host file will be provided containing a list of the 100 hostnames and/or network MAC address(s). This enables easy distribution of the License amongst hosts.
Where unallocated Licenses are updated with host information, Ground Labs will issue a new license file for that order with the additional hosts.
Please note that circumvention of any conditions via technical or other means, constitutes a willful violation of copyright.
7.6 UPDATING LICENSES
Once a host has been added it cannot be deleted or changed. Where a customer has assigned all Licenses purchased and then requires new hosts to be covered, additional Licenses should be purchased. In addition, where a host has changed its hostname or network MAC address a new License is required. Customers who have purchased a License and have not yet submitted the required information for each host should login to the Support area of the Ground Labs website using the credentials supplied at the time the original order was placed.
If you have trouble logging in please contact support@groundlabs.com or refer to the Software documentation at https://www.groundlabs.com/documentation/ for further assistance.
7.7 DELIVERY
The Software is electronically delivered, when activated by means of a license key.

You acknowledge that (a) the Software contains proprietary and confidential information that is protected by applicable intellectual property and other laws, and (b) Ground Labs owns all right, title and interest in and to the Software, and software provided through or in conjunction with the Software, including without limitation all Intellectual Property Rights therein and thereto. "Intellectual Property Rights" means any and all rights existing from time to time under patent law, copyright law, trade secret law, trademark law, unfair competition law, and any and all other proprietary rights, and any and all applications, renewals, extensions and restorations thereof, now or hereafter in force and effect worldwide. You agree that you will not, and will not allow any third party to, (i) copy, sell, license, distribute, transfer, modify, adapt, translate, prepare derivative works from, decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise attempt to derive source code from the Software, unless otherwise permitted, (ii) take any action to circumvent or defeat the security or content usage rules provided, deployed or enforced by any functionality (including without limitation digital rights management functionality) contained in the Software, (iii) use the Software to access, copy, transfer, transcode or retransmit content in violation of any law or third party rights, or (iv) remove, obscure, or alter Ground Labs's copyright notices, trademarks, or other proprietary rights notices affixed to or contained within or accessed in conjunction with or through the Software.

7. LICENSE
7.1 SUBSCRIPTION
The License for the Software is valid for the Subscription Period unless earlier terminated or expired. The "Subscription Period" shall be twelve (12) months from the commencement date of the subscription ("Commencement Date"), unless otherwise specified on a quotation or invoice issued by Ground Labs or its authorized partner. On the Commencement Date, the subscription ("Subscription") becomes effective when Ground Labs confirms the License is available for download via the Ground Labs online customer portal. Upon the earlier expiry or termination of the Subscription Period, the Software will cease to function until a separate License has been purchased and a new license key issued. Any portion of the License not used during the Subscription Period is forfeited and can not be rolled over into subsequent Subscriptions.
7.2 SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE
Product updates are included throughout the Subscription Period. In addition, licensed customers are provided with online technical support including online Software documentation, and a help desk ticketing system for cases to be raised and responded to by Ground Labs support engineers.
7.3 LICENSING RESTRICTED BY HOST
A License is required for each host where the Software is to be used. This may include desktops, servers, notebooks/laptops, physical hosts, logical virtual hosts, or cloud storages, depending on the License and/or version of the Software. Customers are required to provide Ground Labs with a list of Hostnames or the Network Mac Addresses for each host requiring a License. This information is entered by the customer using the Ground Labs online customer support portal after a License has been purchased.
Customers may elect to provide host information at a later time after purchasing has been completed. This enables customers to purchase licenses in quantity without immediately requiring the details of each host to be licensed.
A license file is issued for each order of the Software. For example if you have placed a single order for 100 host licenses, a single host file will be provided containing a list of the 100 hostnames and/or network MAC address(s). This enables easy distribution of the License amongst hosts.
Where unallocated Licenses are updated with host information, Ground Labs will issue a new license file for that order with the additional hosts.
Please note that circumvention of any conditions via technical or other means, constitutes a willful violation of copyright.
7.4 UPDATING LICENSES
Once a host has been added it cannot be deleted or changed. Where a customer has assigned all Licenses purchased and then requires new hosts to be covered, additional Licenses should be purchased. In addition, where a host has changed its hostname or network MAC address a new License is required. Customers who have purchased a License and have not yet submitted the required information for each host should login to the Support area of the Ground Labs website using the credentials supplied at the time the original order was placed.
If you have trouble logging in please contact support@groundlabs.com or refer to the Software documentation at https://www.groundlabs.com/documentation/ for further assistance.
7.5 DELIVERY
The Software is electronically delivered, when activated by means of a license key.
