License

The following is our standard software license and covers our hosting service. Be sure to read this information carefully as it outlines both our responsibilities and those of subscribers to our service.

ClearLearning, Inc. License Agreement for Test Pilot Software

IMPORTANT--READ CAREFULLY: This ClearLearning, Inc. License Agreement for Test Pilot ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you (either an individual or a single legal entity) and ClearLearning, Inc. for the Test Pilot software product, which includes computer software and may include associated media, printed materials, and "online" or electronic documentation ("Software "). By downloading, installing, copying, or otherwise using the Software, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, do not install or use the Software; you may, however, contact ClearLearning, Inc. for a full refund.

SOFTWARE LICENSE

Copyright laws and international copyright treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties protect the Software. The Software is licensed, not sold.

1. GRANT OF LICENSE. This Agreement grants you the following rights:

  • Software: You may install and use, during the Term of this Agreement, the Software on the number of network servers identified by you when you purchased this Software License to use Test Pilot. For the purpose of this Agreement, "Author" means you, if an individual, or if a "single legal entity", then persons employed or retained by you, who as part of their duties compose and administer tests and/or surveys. For the purpose of this Agreement, "Participant" means an individual to whom Authors administer tests or surveys.

  • Storage/Network Use: You may also store or install a copy of the Software on a storage device, such as a network server, used only to install or run the Software on your other servers over an internal network: however, you must acquire and dedicate a license for each separate server or computer on which the Software is installed or run from the storage device. A license for the Software may be shared and used concurrently on different computers to the limit specified above.

  • Concurrent use: You may permit Authors to install, on their personal computer, that portion of the Software which enables them to compose questions, tests and surveys.

  • Maximum number of Participants: You are only licensed to store, at any moment in time, the details of no more than the number of Participants associated with the license fee you paid when you purchased this Software License to use Test Pilot. Notwithstanding this limitation the Participant details can change at any time, provided, however, that the maximum number is not exceeded.

  • Exclusion for Commercial Use: Notwithstanding the foregoing, you are not licensed to use the Software to charge for delivering, taking or participating in tests or surveys, or for delivering feedback or calculating results. A separate agreement is required for such use, provided, however, that such use is permitted when you notify us in advance and revenues from such use are less than $3,000 per calendar year.

  • Term: This License is perpetual for the major version purchased beginning on the date you receive download or access codes from ClearLearning.

  • Hosting Services: If you are a subscriber to our Hosting Services, the Terms and Conditions of this License Agreement and Appendix A apply to you. Please read Appendix A carefully.

2. DESCRIPTION OF OTHER RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS.

  • Educational User: If the license fee paid by you was identified as "Educational", you must be a "Qualified Educational User" to use the Software. Qualified Educational Users include public and private schools, colleges and universities that do not restrict acceptance on the basis of race, ethnic origin, previous or current employer and are not closely affiliated with companies that provide more than 75% of students to the Universities. Therefore, for example, organizations, sometimes known as Universities, but set up by companies to further the education of their employees do not qualify as Educational Users. If you are not a Qualified Educational User, and have paid an Educational license fee, you have no rights under this Agreement to use the Software.

  • Assignment: Neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned, sublicensed or otherwise transferred, in whole or in part, by you.

  • Limitation on reverse Engineering, Decompilation, and Disassembly: You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software.

  • Rental: You may not rent, lease, lend or otherwise transfer for value the Software.

  • Support Services: ClearLearning may provide you with support services related to the Software ("Support Services"). Use of Support Services is governed by the ClearLearning policies and programs described on its web site in "online" documentation, and/or in other ClearLearning provided materials. Any supplemental software provided to you as part of the Support Services shall be considered part of the Software and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. With respect to technical information you provide to ClearLearning as part of the Support Services, ClearLearning may use such information for its business purposes, including but not limited to product support and development. ClearLearning shall not be obligated to provide Support Services during any period during which an annual license is not paid by Licensee or offered by ClearLearning.

  • Termination: Without prejudice to any other rights, ClearLearning may terminate this Agreement if you fail to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or fail to pay ClearLearning's invoice for this Software. In such event, you must destroy all copies of the Software and all of its component parts.

  • Upgrades: If the Software is labeled as an upgrade, you must be properly licensed to use a product identified by ClearLearning as being eligible for the upgrade in order to use the Software. Software labeled as an upgrade replaces and/or supplements the product that formed the basis for your eligibility for the upgrade. You may use the resulting upgraded product only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If the Software is an upgrade of a component of a package of software programs that you licensed as a single product, the Software may be used and transferred only as part of that single product package and may not be separated for use on more than one computer.

  • Copyright: All title and copyrights in and to the Software (including, but not limited to, any images, photographs, animations, video, audio, music, text, and "applets" incorporated into the Software), the accompanying printed materials, and any copies of the Software are owned by ClearLearning and/or its suppliers. Copyright laws and international treaty provisions protect the Software. Therefore, you must treat the Software like any other copyrighted material. You may not copy the printed materials accompanying the Software.

  • Dual-Media Software: You may receive the Software in more than one medium. Regardless of the type or size of medium you receive, you may use only one medium that is appropriate for your computer. You may not use or install the other medium on another computer. You may not loan, rent, lease, or otherwise transfer the other medium to another use.

  • Intended beneficiary: ClearLearning, its suppliers and Licensors are the intended beneficiaries of this Agreement and shall have the right to enforce it on their own behalf and in their name.

U.S. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS. The Software and documentation are provided with RESTRICTED RIGHTS. Use, duplication, or disclosure by the Government is subject to restrictions as set forth in subparagraph (c)(1)(ii) of the Rights in Technical Data and Computer Software clause at DFARS 252.227-7013 or subparagraphs (c)(1) and (2) of the commercial Computer Software -- Restricted Rights at 48 CFR 52.227-19, as applicable. Manufacturer is ClearLearning, Illinois, USA.

LIMITED WARRANTY

LIMITED WARRANTY. ClearLearning warrants that (a) the Software will perform substantially in accordance with the accompanying written materials for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of receipt, and (b) any Support Services provided by ClearLearning shall be substantially as described in applicable written materials provided to you by ClearLearning, and ClearLearning support engineers will make commercially reasonable efforts to solve any problem issues. Some states and jurisdictions do not allow limitations on duration of an implied warranty, so the above limitation may not apply to you. To the extent allowed by applicable law, implied warranties on the Software, if any, are limited to ninety (90) days.

CUSTOMER REMEDIES. ClearLearning and its suppliers' entire liability and your exclusive remedy shall be, at ClearLearning's option, either (a) return of the price paid, if any, or (b) repair or replacement of the Software that does not meet ClearLearning's Limited Warranty and that is returned to ClearLearning with a copy of your receipt.

NO OTHER WARRANTIES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ClearLearning AND ITS SUPPLIERS DISCLAIM ALL OTHER 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 LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU MAY HAVE OTHERS, WHICH VARY FROM STATE/JURISDICTION TO STATE/JURISDICTION.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL ClearLearning OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE OR THE PROVISION OF OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE SUPPORT SERVICES, EVEN IF ClearLearning HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN ANY CASE, ClearLearning'S ENTIRE LIABILITY UNDER ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU FOR THE SOFTWARE OR U.S. $5.00; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, IF YOU HAVE ENTERED INTO A ClearLearning SUPPORT SERVICES AGREEMENT, ClearLearning'S ENTIRE LIABILITY REGARDING SUPPORT SERVICES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE TERMS OF THAT AGREEMENT. BECAUSE SOME STATES AND JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
