SOFTWARE END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT

Version 1.1 (Updated December 15 2016)

 

important, Read this agreement carefully.  BY INSTALLING OR USING ALL OR ANY PORTION OF THE SOFTWARE, YOU ARE ACCEPTING ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. YOU AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT IS ENFORCEABLE LIKE ANY WRITTEN AGREEMENT.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT USE OR ACCESS THE SOFTWARE.  IF YOU HAVE PAID A LICENSE FEE FOR USE OF THE SOFTWARE AND DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU MAY RETURN THE SOFTWARE (ALONG WITH ANY HARDWARE ON WHICH IT WAS EMBEDDED, IF APPLICABLE) FOR A FULL REFUND PROVIDED YOU (a) DO NOT USE THE SOFTWARE AND (b) RETURN THE SOFTWARE WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF YOUR INITIAL PURCHASE.

IF YOU WISH TO USE the Software AS AN EMPLOYEE, CONTRACTOR, OR AGENT OF A CORPORATION, PARTNERSHIP OR SIMILAR ENTITY, THEN YOU MUST BE AUTHORIZED TO SIGN FOR AND BIND THE ENTITY IN ORDER TO ACCEPT THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE LICENSES GRANTED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON ACCEPTANCE BY SUCH AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL.

If an executed agreement exists between you and Trimble at any time regarding the Software, the terms of that agreement shall supersede the terms of this Agreement in its entirety. Thus, if you enter into a separate written agreement with Trimble regarding the Software, that agreement (not this one) will control your use of the Software; and further if that agreement is terminated, you will not have the right to use the Software under the terms of this Agreement after termination.

This Software End User License Agreement (“Agreement”) is between Trimble Inc., located at 935 Stewart Drive, Sunnyvale, CA 94085 USA, or the affiliate identified on the Order Form, and its affiliates (“Trimble”) and the customer (individual or entity) that has downloaded or otherwise procured the licensed Software (as defined below) for use as an end user (“you”). This Agreement covers any Software and supporting user or technical documentation provided with the Software (“Documentation”).

1.              Definitions.

Effective Date” means the earlier of the date you sign an Order Form or the date on which the Software is first made available to you.

“Order Form” means any order which is entered into by Trimble (or an authorized Trimble distributor or reseller) and you under which you are provided the Software. Each Order Form for the Software shall be deemed a part of this Agreement. This Agreement is binding on you whether or not you executed an Order Form with Trimble. Order Forms may not vary the terms of this Agreement. Only a written agreement, signed by Trimble (not a Trimble distributor or reseller) may vary the terms of this Agreement.

“Software” means the Trimble software product(s) for desktop, mobile, server or other computing devices(including without limitation, Vico, Prolog, Proliance desktop, WinEst, or Modelogix software) or firmware provided in connection with this Agreement in object code form, in each case as specified in any related Order Form. “Software” shall also include any releases provided to or purchased by you under any separate support and maintenance agreement you may enter into with Trimble. Unless otherwise noted, the Software and Documentation are referred to collectively herein as “Software.”

“Third-Party Software” means any third-party software that is provided to you by Trimble under separate terms and conditions.

“Trimble Supplier” means either Trimble or an authorized distributor or reseller of Trimble products or services which has entered into an Order Form with you.

 

2.              License.

2.1.         Grant of License. Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Trimble grants you a non-transferable, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive license to use the Software in machine-readable form on any computer and operating system for which it was intended, but solely: (a) for your own internal business purposes; (b) in accordance with the Documentation; and (c) in accordance with any additional license term, subscription term or other user, seat, computer, field of use, location or other restrictions set forth in the applicable Order Form or otherwise specified upon purchase.

2.2.         Installation and Copies. Trimble shall make available the Software by disk, other media, download in electronic form, or as embedded in a device. Trimble shall also provide you with electronic passwords or other enabling mechanisms if necessary to permit the licensed usage of the Software. All licenses shall commence, and delivery shall be deemed to occur, as of the Effective Date (or, if later, such date on which the Software and license keys are first made available to you). If your Order Form is with a Trimble distributor or reseller, that distributor or reseller (and not Trimble) is solely responsible for delivery to you and Trimble has no liability for any failure to deliver.  If the Software requires license keys to operate as licensed to you, the applicable Trimble Supplier will deliver such license keys to you.

2.3.         Software Intended to be Installed on Computers. You may copy and install on your computers for use only by your employees the number of copies of the Software for which you have paid the applicable license fee and, if any, the location specified on any Order Form (“Site”).  You may transfer the Software from one computer to another computer provided that the computer to which the Software is transferred is located at the Site and the Software is completely removed and de-installed from the prior computer.  If you are permitted to install the Software on a network server, and you transfer the Software from the Site to a new location, you must provide Trimble with written notice of the new Site prior to such transfer.  You may also make a reasonable number of copies of the Software for back-up and archival purposes. This Section 2.3 does not apply to any Software embedded on devices.

2.4.         License Restrictions. You shall not (and shall not allow any third party to): (a) decompile, disassemble, or otherwise reverse engineer the Software or attempt to reconstruct or discover any source code, underlying ideas, algorithms, file formats or programming interfaces of the Software by any means whatsoever (except and only to the extent that applicable law prohibits or restricts reverse engineering restrictions); (b) distribute, sell, sublicense, rent, lease, or use the Software (or any portion thereof) for time sharing, hosting, service provider, or like purposes; (c) remove any product identification, proprietary, copyright, or other notices contained in the Software; (d) modify or translate any part of the Software, create a derivative work of any part of the Software, or incorporate the Software into or with other software, except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by Trimble; (e) attempt to circumvent or disable the security key mechanism that protects the Software against unauthorized use (except and only to the extent that applicable law prohibits or restricts such restrictions); (f) publicly disseminate performance information or analysis (including, without limitation, benchmarks) from any source relating to the Software; or (g) use or host the Software in a virtual server environment. If the Software has been provided to you as embedded in any hardware device, you are not licensed to separate the Software from the hardware device. If the Software has been provided to you separately from a hardware device but is intended to be loaded onto a hardware device specified by Trimble (such as a firmware update), your license is limited to loading the Software on the device specified by Trimble in the Documentation, and for no other use.

2.5.         Evaluation Software.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and during the term of this Agreement, Trimble may, in its discretion, provide you with pre-release, beta or other Software on an evaluation basis (“Evaluation Software”).  You may use Evaluation Software solely for internal evaluation purposes for 30 days from receipt of the Evaluation Software (unless otherwise agreed by Trimble in writing) (the “Evaluation Period”). Unless you pay the applicable license fee for the Software, the Evaluation Software may become inoperable and, in any event, your right to use the Evaluation Software automatically expires at the end of the Evaluation Period. Evaluation Software shall be subject to all restrictions on Software set forth in this Agreement. You shall treat all Evaluation Software as Confidential Information of Trimble and shall return or destroy any copies of Evaluation Software upon expiration of the applicable Evaluation Period.  Any and all suggestions, reports, ideas for improvement and other feedback of any type you provide regarding the Evaluation Software are the sole property of Trimble, and Trimble may use such information in connection with any of its products or services without any obligation or restriction based on intellectual property rights or otherwise.  You acknowledge that all Evaluation Software is provided “AS IS” and may not be functional on any machine or in any environment.  THE WARRANTIES OF SECTION 7 DO NOT APPLY TO EVALUATION SOFTWARE. TRIMBLE AND ITS SUPPLIERS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES RELATING TO THE EVALUATION SOFTWARE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

2.6.         Educational Versions.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if Trimble identifies the Software as an "Educational Version", you may install and access one (1) copy of the Software on one (1) computer, only for educational purposes and for no other purpose. Without limiting the foregoing, Educational Versions of the Software may not be used for commercial, professional, commercial training or other for-profit purposes.

3.              Software Activation and Metering; Consent to Use of Data.

3.1.         Software Activation and Metering.  Trimble may use your internal network and Internet connection for the purpose of transmitting license-related data at the time of installation, registration, use or update of the Software and for validating the authenticity of the license-related data in order to register your Software and protect Trimble against unlicensed or illegal use of the Software.

Trimble may include in the Software, a built-in license metering technology that helps you avoid any unintentional violation of this Agreement.   You acknowledge that such metering module may send Trimble on-line notification confirming use of the Software.  You will not disable, modify or interfere with the operation of any such module. Trimble may use your internal network for license metering.

Trimble will use information obtained per this Section 3.1 only for the purpose stated in this Section 3.1.

3.2.         Consent to Use of Data.  Trimble may, directly or through third parties, collect and use technical information, information about you, and/or data that you provide in relation to your use of the Software or the provision of maintenance and technical support for the Software.  Trimble will not use such information in a form that personally identifies you except to the extent necessary to provide maintenance and technical support, or to enhance your use of the Software including requesting feedback on the Software, providing critical updates, notifications regarding pre-release Software, or to improve the Software.  You acknowledge that, to the extent permitted by law, Trimble assumes no responsibility for storage of your data or information.

4.              Ownership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except for the limited license rights expressly provided herein, Trimble and/or its suppliers, as applicable, have and will retain all rights, title and interest (including, without limitation, all patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret and other intellectual property rights) in and to the Software and all copies, modifications and derivative works thereof (including any changes which incorporate any of your ideas, feedback or suggestions). You acknowledge that you are obtaining only a limited license right to the Software and that irrespective of any use of the words “purchase”, “sale” or like terms hereunder no ownership rights are being conveyed to you under this Agreement or otherwise.

5.              Payment. You shall pay all fees associated with the Software licensed and any services purchased hereunder as set forth in the applicable Order Form. All payments shall be made in U.S. dollars within thirty (30) days of your receipt of the applicable invoice, unless otherwise specified in writing by the Trimble Supplier. Except as expressly set forth herein, all fees are non-refundable once paid. You shall be responsible for all taxes, withholdings, duties and levies arising from the order (excluding taxes based on the net income of the Trimble Supplier). Any late payments shall be subject to a service charge equal to 1.5% per month of the amount due or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is less.

6.              Term of Agreement.

6.1.         Term. This Agreement is effective as of the Effective Date and expires at such time as all license and service subscriptions hereunder have expired in accordance with their own terms (e.g., in accordance with a term specified on an Order Form) (the “Term”). Either party may terminate this Agreement (including all related Order Forms) if the other party: (a) fails to cure any material breach of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after written notice of such breach; (b) ceases operation without a successor; or (c) seeks protection under any bankruptcy, receivership, trust deed, creditors arrangement, composition or comparable proceeding, or if any such proceeding is instituted against such party (and not dismissed within sixty (60) days). If you have entered into a separate written agreement with Trimble which governs the Software and that agreement is terminated, then this Agreement automatically terminates and you shall no longer have any right to use the Software. Termination is not an exclusive remedy and the exercise by either party of any remedy under this Agreement will be without prejudice to any other remedies it may have under this Agreement, by law, or otherwise. For clarity, even if you have entered into an Order Form with a Trimble distributor or reseller, you agree that Trimble is a third party beneficiary to that Order Form and has the right to terminate this Agreement as set forth in this Section 6 (Term of Agreement).

6.2.         Termination. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, you shall cease any and all use of any Software and destroy all copies thereof and so certify to Trimble in writing.

6.3.         Survival.  Sections 2.4 (License Restrictions), 4 (Ownership), 5 (Payment), 6.3 (Survival), 7 (Limited Warranty and Disclaimers), 10 (Limitation of Remedies and Damages), 11 (Confidential Information), 12 (Export Compliance; Compliance with Laws), and 13 (General) shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

7.              Limited Warranty and Disclaimers.

7.1.         Limited Warranty.  Unless Trimble agrees otherwise in the Order Form, Trimble warrants to you that for a period of ninety (90) days from the Effective Date (the “Warranty Period”) the Software shall operate in substantial conformity with the Documentation. Trimble does not warrant that your use of the Software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that any security mechanisms implemented by the Software will not have inherent limitations. Trimble’s sole liability (and your exclusive remedy) for any breach of this warranty shall be, in Trimble’s sole discretion, to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide you with an error-correction or work-around which corrects the reported non-conformity, or if Trimble determines such remedies to be impracticable within a reasonable period of time, to refund the license fee paid for the Software.  A Trimble Supplier other than Trimble may fulfill Trimble’s warranty obligations hereunder on behalf of Trimble.  Trimble Suppliers shall have no obligation with respect to a warranty claim unless notified of such claim within the Warranty Period.

8.              Support & Maintenance. Trimble shall provide the support and maintenance services, if any, as separately purchased by you and specified in the applicable Order Form. All support and maintenance shall be provided pursuant to Trimble’s standard service terms which are available upon request from Trimble.

9.              Professional Services. The Trimble Supplier shall provide the number of person-days, if any, of professional consulting services (“Professional Services”) purchased in the applicable Order Form and related Statement of Work.

Except as expressly authorized herein, you will hold in confidence and not use or disclose any Trimble Confidential Information.
