Upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of the License Agreement, the Author grants you the right to use the Software in the manner provided below.

This Software is owned by the Author and is protected by copyright law and international copyright treaty.

The Author grants to you as an individual, a personal, nonexclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the Software for evaluation purposes only. In particular, you may not distribute or cause to be distributed the Software or any programs you develop using the Software. You may install a copy of the Software on a computer and freely move the Software from one computer to another, provided that you are the only individual using the Software.

In any event, any license restrictions imposed by a third party vendor are in addition to, not in lieu of, the terms and conditions of the License Agreement.

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE AUTHOR DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, WITH REGARD TO THE SOFTWARE, AND THE PROVISION OF OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE SUPPORT SERVICES. THIS WARRANTY DISCLAIMER AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW EXCLUSIONS OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES The Software is not fault-tolerant and is not designed, manufactured or intended for use or resale as on-line control equipment in hazardous environments requiring fail-safe performance, such as in the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, air traffic control, direct life support machines, or weapons systems, in which the failure of the Software could lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe physical or environmental damage ("High Risk Activities"). The Author specifically disclaims any express or implied warranty of fitness for High Risk Activities.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHOR BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE THEREOF (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS), EVEN IF THE AUTHOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL THE AUTHOR'S LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, EXCEED THE FEE PAID BY YOU FOR THE SOFTWARE THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF SUCH CLAIM. IF THE RELEVANT SOFTWARE WAS PROVIDED TO YOU AT NO CHARGE YOU AGREE THAT THE AUTHOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY DAMAGES. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ADEQUATE PROTECTION AND BACKUP OF THE DATA AND EQUIPMENT USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES, AND FURTHER AGREE THAT THE AUTHOR WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THAT YOU MAY SUFFER IN CONNECTION WITH DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, OR USING THE SOFTWARE.

THIS LIMITATION SHALL APPLY TO CLAIMS OF PERSONAL INJURY TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION ARE SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT OF ANY OTHER REMEDY LIMITATIONS IN THIS AGREEMENT AND SHALL NOT FAIL IF SUCH OTHER LIMITATION OR REMEDY FAILS. THE FEES AND OTHER PROVISIONS IN THIS AGREEMENT REFLECT THE ALLOCATION OF RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THIS SECTION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
