SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR THE ON-PREMISE VERSION OF ICEWARP SERVER (“EULA”)
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING, UPGRADING, OR OTHERWISE USING THIS PRODUCT. BY USING THIS PRODUCT YOU ARE BECOMING A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT AND YOU ARE CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY ALL THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.
Note: This is a legal agreement between You (our Customer) and us, IceWarp Ltd. (IceWarp), which governs your use of the IceWarp Server and its components (Software). If you are agreeing to this Agreement not as an individual but on behalf of your company, then “Customer” or “You” means your company, and you are binding your company to this Agreement. You are not allowed to use any version of IceWarp Server without agreeing to the terms and conditions hereof.
Sign up procedure: By clicking on the “I agree” (or similar button) presented to you purchase website / Software installation program, you indicate to be bound by the terms of this Software License Agreement. If you do not agree with the provisions below, please exit the system by clicking "Cancel" (or similar button) or close the web page.
IceWarp reserves the right to update or modify this Agreement in any future or other versions of the Software, including any policies, price lists and other documents incorporated by reference, which can be modified from time to time. If a revision meaningfully reduces your rights, or binds you to increased fees, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you (by, for example, sending an email to the billing or administrator contact you designate to us, posting on our blog, through your login to IceWarp website, or in the Software itself). New versions will require your consent by clicking through the updated Agreement. If you disagree, do not accept and do not use the new version.
If we modify the Agreement during your License Term, the modified Agreement will be effective upon your next renewal of a License Term, Support and Maintenance term, as applicable. If you disagree with the updated Agreement, or with the updates made to incorporated documents, as your exclusive remedy, you may choose not to renew/upgrade.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, IceWarp grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the Software during the applicable License Term in accordance with this Agreement, applicable Price List and Documentation. Your License Term starts on the date of first license activation (or the date of supply if not activated within 30 days), and will end upon any termination of this Agreement, even if it is identified as “perpetual”.
This Software License Agreement is for the newest version of the Software available at the time of purchase and includes also Software Maintenance (described below) during a 1-year period following after the initial license activation date, or during the period for which you have paid the applicable Renewal fee. Maintenance provides you access to new releases (Upgrades), if and when made available, regular updates of the functionality, anti-spam and antivirus definition updates bug fixes, security patches and other minor improvements. The included product support enables you to access the support helpdesk according to IceWarp’s Support & SLA Plans policy.
You may at your discretion renew Maintenance for another 1-year period(s) by paying the Renewal fee according to the currently valid Price List. Additional fees may apply when upgrading to a version significantly enhanced with features previously not existing in your license, and vice-versa, fees may decrease if IceWarp decides to discontinue or replace previously paid features. IceWarp may regularly update the Renewal fee reflecting the current exchange rates, material, workforce and suppliers costs. Each subsequent Maintenance period will commence from the last day of the previous Maintenance period, regardless of when the Maintenance renewal was purchased. Maintenance is not available for licenses which are more than 365 days without maintenance.
Support and Maintenance of old versions that are no longer fit for their purpose will end on their respective End of Life (EOL) dates announced by IceWarp at least 6 (six) months ahead of coming into effect, after which all support and Maintenance coverage for the old version will automatically terminate. Any remaining Maintenance can be recovered solely by installing a newer version not subject to EOL.
If you have obtained a free trial license key, it lets you use the Software for evaluation and testing purposes only, for a limited term, without any Support, Maintenance, warranty, and indemnity obligations, to the maximum extent permitted by law, and your right of use can be terminated at any time without any liability to you.
Except as otherwise stated, the license granted herein shall be perpetual, which means the Software will operate even without any updates/upgrades in the current state indefinitely.
TeamChat, Exchange ActiveSync, IceWarp Desktop Suite and IceWarp Outlook Sync client access licenses have a limited term ending on the last day of your Maintenance. Unless you renew the Maintenance for each and every component against payment of the applicable Renewal fee, these components will stop functioning after this period, independently on the License Term of other components.
End-user software products IceWarp Desktop Suite, IceWarp Outlook Sync, IceWarp FileSync, IceWarp Teamchat Desktop and IceWarp Notifier distributed with IceWarp Server are subject to a separate EULA presented during their installation.
