The Application is licensed, not sold, to the Client for use under the terms of this Agreement.

Limited License
Scope of License
As long as the Client follows all the terms of this Agreement and pays any applicable fees, the Company grants the Client a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use the unmodified Application in binary form, as specified in the purchase terms.
License Restrictions
The Client agrees not to:
- Sell, rent, lease, sublicense, or redistribute the Application, except as allowed in this Agreement.
- Copy or use the Application for any purpose other than as permitted in this Agreement.
- Modify, reverse engineer, or create derivative works from the Application.
- Remove or alter any copyright or trademark notices.
- Circumvent any security features of the Application.
- Use the Application if prohibited by law.
License Redistribution
The Client and its Affiliates are permitted to develop and redistribute end-user products and services ("External Products") that integrate the Application, provided that:
- The redistribution is done under a written agreement with terms as restrictive as those in this Agreement.
- The redistribution is limited to the specific External Products as outlined in the purchase terms, and the Client has purchased the appropriate Redistribution Licenses as part of those External Products.
License Fees
- To use the Application for internal products ("Internal Products"), the Client must pay the standard license fee as specified in the purchase terms.
- To use and redistribute the Application in end-user products and services ("External Products"), the Client must pay the Redistribution License Fee, as specified in the purchase terms.
- For educational or non-production use, the Client can access the Application at no charge for testing and evaluation, subject to the terms of this Agreement.
Hosting and Deployment
- For Internal Products, the Application may only be hosted on the Client's machines, servers, or cloud infrastructure. Authorized Users, including the Client's personnel, contractors, or affiliates, may access and use the Application as long as it is hosted solely within the Client's infrastructure. The Application cannot be hosted by any third-party service providers for Internal Products.
- For External Products developed by the Client, the Application may be hosted on the Client's infrastructure or the infrastructure of the Client's customers, but only if the Application is bundled as part of the specific External Product. In such cases, a Redistribution License Fee must be paid, and the Client is responsible for ensuring proper licensing for each deployment.
- The Client's customers, affiliates, or other third parties are prohibited from using the Client's Application license to develop their own custom internal or external products. The Application is strictly licensed for use within the Client's development and distribution and cannot be repurposed for custom development by others.
On-Premise Deployment
- The on-premise license allows External Products and Internal Products to be deployed in isolated or secured facilities. Once generated, the Client is required to maintain a valid monthly or yearly subscription throughout the license period.
- The license operates offline for an extended duration (e.g., 3 or 5 years). If the Client cancels the subscription while the license is still valid, this will be considered non-compliant with the licensing terms. The Client is required to provide proof, upon request, that they have stopped using both the application and the license.
