1. GRANT OF LICENSE
H+BEDV GmbH (the "LICENSOR") grants to you the non-exclusive and non-transferrable right to use one copy of the AntiVir Personal Edition software program (the "PROGRAM") exclusively for Non-commercial Purposes (as hereafter defined) on a single computer (i.e., with a single CPU). You may use the PROGRAM exclusively on the one specific operating system as set forth above. Additional licenses may be acquired from H+BEDV GmbH for use on any other operating system (e.g. DOS, OS/2, Linux etc.) that H+BEDV GmbH then makes generally available. H+BEDV GmbH shall have no obligation to make the PROGRAM available on any other operating system. You may not network the PROGRAM or otherwise use it on more than one computer at the same time or under more than one operating system at the same time. "Non-commercial Purposes" means use other than for commercial or business purposes. Educational institution use and non-profit entity use of the PROGRAM are each deemed to be for commercial or business purposes. However, use of a single-person home office is not deemed to be for commercial or business purposes. This license does not entitle you to receive from H+BEDV GmbH hard-copy documentation, technical support, telephone assistance, or enhancements or updates to the PROGRAM, except in the case of technical support to the limited extent set forth in Section 6 below. However, H+BEDV GmbH may in its sole discretion furnish enhancements or updates to the PROGRAM through its Web site or any other distribution channel with or without charge. H+BEDV GmbH intends to bring to market new versions of the PROGRAM approximately every 2-3 months and interim releases approximately every month. Whether and when H+BEDV GmbH brings new versions or interim releases to market shall be determined by H+BEDV GmbH in its sole discretion.
2. COPYRIGHT
The PROGRAM is owned by H+BEDV GmbH or its suppliers or licensors and is protected by United States copyright laws and international treaty provisions. Therefore, you may not use, copy, or distribute the PROGRAM without authorization except that you may either (a) make one copy of the PROGRAM solely for backup or archival purposes or (b) transfer the PROGRAM to a single hard disk provided you keep the original solely for backup or archival purposes, and except that if the PROGRAM is installed on a desktop or other stationary computer, you may copy the PROGRAM onto a notebook or other portable computer for use exclusively while travelling or otherwise away from the stationary computer. You may not print copies of any user documentation provided in "online" or electronic form; provided, however, that you may print one copy exclusively for your personal reference of any or all such documentation.
3. OTHER RESTRICTIONS; INDEMNIFICATION
You may not rent, lease or otherwise transfer or encumber the PROGRAM in any way, even on a permanent basis retaining no copies and with the recipient agreeing to the terms of this Agreement. You may not sublicense all or any portion of the PROGRAM. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the PROGRAM. You may not modify, or create derivative works based upon the PROGRAM in whole or in part, including translation or localization. You may not remove or alter any trademark, logo, copyright or other proprietary notice, legend, symbol or labels in the PROGRAM, or publish any results of benchmark tests run on the PROGRAM to a third party without H+BEDV GmbH's prior written consent. You hereby agree to indemnify H+BEDV GmbH against and hold harmless H+BEDV GmbH from any claims, lawsuits or other losses that arise out of your breach of this Section 3 or of any other provision of this Agreement.
4. NO WARRANTY
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE NOT PAID FOR THIS LICENSE GRANTED HEREBY. ACCORDINGLY, THE PROGRAM IS SUPPLIED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, AND YOU WILL BEAR ALL RISKS AS TO QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, (I) YOU ASSUME THE ENTIRE COST OF ANY SERVICE OR REPAIR AND OF ANY DAMAGE RESULTING FROM THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN OR COMPILED BY THE PROGRAM, AND (II) YOU ASSUME ALL RESPONSIBILITIES FOR SELECTION OF THE PROGRAM TO ACHIEVE YOUR INTENDED RESULTS, AND FOR THE INSTALLATION OF, USE OF, AND RESULTS OBTAINED FROM THE PROGRAM. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, H+BEDV GMBH DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NONINFRINGEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE PROGRAM.
5. NO LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LICENSOR OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM, EVEN IF H+BEDV GMBH HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LICENSE GRANTED HEREBY IS LIMITED TO NON-COMMERCIAL PURPOSES, AND ACCORDINGLY THAT YOU CANNOT SUFFER DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION UNLESS YOU YOURSELF HAVE BREACHED THIS AGREEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL H+BEDV GMBH'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES IN ANY ONE OR MORE CAUSES OF ACTION EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU, IF ANY, FOR THE PROGRAM. THIS LIMITATION SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE FAILURE OF ANY ESSENTIAL REMEDY. BECAUSE SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
6. SERVICE AND SUPPORT
You acknowledge that H+BEDV GmbH has made the PROGRAM available at no cost, and accordingly that the service and support that H+BEDV GmbH offers the PROGRAM is limited to the following: the service or support, if any, that is freely available on the FREE-AV.COM Web site. You acknowledge the usefulness and value to you of an "issue list" or other service identifying known problems in use of the PROGRAM, if such a list were to be made available on such site at any time or from time to time. Accordingly, you agree not to use the existence or contents of any such list to support any claim of any nature against H+BEDV GmbH.
