gridpin-pro End-User Licence Agreement
This agreement is between GridPin (the seller named in the Terms of Sale, "we") and the organisation that holds a paid Starter or Pro subscription and the licence file issued to it ("you"). It covers the program gridpin-pro, its documentation and the files delivered with it (together, "the Software"). You accept it by ticking the box on the purchase page before you pay. If you do not accept it, do not install or use the Software.
The Terms of Sale (section 5 of https://gridpin.dev/terms) cover the purchase itself: price, payment, renewal, refunds and download limits. This agreement covers what you may do with the Software. Where the two disagree about the Software, this agreement applies.
1. Grant
1.1. While your licence is in force (section 6), we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and run the Software for the internal purposes of your organisation.
1.2. Inside your organisation there is no limit on the number of machines, users, environments, containers or copies, including servers, clusters and networks without internet access.
1.3. Contractors and service providers may run the Software on your behalf and for your purposes only. You are responsible for what they do with it.
2. Restrictions
You may not, and may not let anyone else:
2.1. give, sell, rent, lend or otherwise distribute the Software, or your licence file, to anyone outside your organisation;
2.2. offer the Software, or what it does, as a service to third parties (for example a hosted geocoding or matching service for other organisations), or embed it in a product you distribute to others. Embedding and services are available under a separate written agreement (OEM): write to contact@gridpin.dev;
2.3. remove, hide or change the licence mark the Software shows, or work around the check of the licence file;
2.4. decompile, disassemble or reverse engineer the Software, except to the extent that the law applicable to you allows it regardless of this agreement.
3. Your results are yours
3.1. The files, coordinates, groups, reports and other output the Software produces from your data belong to you. You may keep them for as long as you like and use them for any purpose, including after this licence ends. We claim no right in them and put no limit on how long you store them.
3.2. Your data stays on your machines. The Software does not send your data, your queries or its results anywhere.
4. Licence file and visible mark
4.1. The Software runs with a licence file (gridpin-pro.lic) that you download from your order page. The file names your organisation identifier (the ID shown on your order page), your plan, the date it was issued and the date it expires, and it is signed by us.
4.2. The Software shows this information, on purpose: gridpin-pro --about prints whom the copy is licensed to and until when. This mark identifies an organisation, not a person, and changes nothing in your data or results.
4.3. A new licence file is issued for each paid period. Download it again from your order page after you renew.
5. Third-party software and data
5.1. The Software includes open-source components. Their licences are listed, with their full texts, in THIRDPARTY.yml in the archive of the Software, and they apply to those components. Nothing in this agreement limits the rights those licences give you.
5.2. The address sheets and data layers you use with the Software come under the licences of their sources, listed in ATTRIBUTIONS.md and in section 2 of the Terms. Keep those notices in your internal copies. In particular, the Australian address data (G-NAF) must not be used to generate or compile addresses for sending mail unless each address used for sending mail has been verified, by reference to a secondary source of information, as capable of receiving mail.
6. Term and termination
6.1. This licence is in force while your Starter or Pro subscription is paid, and during the grace period that follows the end of a paid period, as stated in the licence file.
6.2. When the licence file expires, the Software keeps working for 30 days and warns at every start that the licence has expired, with the date it stops and the address of your order page; after that it stops running commands until a new licence file is in place. gridpin-pro --about and gridpin-pro --help always work.
6.3. The Software checks the licence file on your machine only and is never switched off from a distance. If you stop paying, it keeps working until the dates in your last licence file run out, as described in 6.2.
6.4. If you break section 2, we may end your licence by notice by email, stop issuing licence files to you and end your access to downloads, without a refund. You must then stop using the Software and delete its copies.
6.5. Sections 3, 5.2, 7, 8 and 9 continue after this licence ends. Output you produced remains yours (section 3).
7. No warranty
The Software is provided "as is". Geocoding is approximate: answers can be wrong, missing or far from the true place. We make no promise that the Software is free of errors, fit for a particular purpose, or that it will keep working with future data. Check results before you rely on them for decisions that matter, such as emergency dispatch, legal notice or payments.
8. Limitation of liability
8.1. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, revenue, data or goodwill.
8.2. To the extent the law allows, our total liability under or in connection with this agreement is limited to the amount you paid us for the subscription in the twelve months before the claim.
8.3. Nothing in this agreement limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or rights you have under consumer law that cannot be excluded.
9. Law and disputes
9.1. This agreement and any dispute arising from it are governed by the law of England and Wales.
9.2. Before going to court, write to us at contact@gridpin.dev and give us 30 days to resolve the matter. Disputes that are not resolved go to the courts of England and Wales, unless the law that protects you as a consumer gives you the right to go to a court where you live or makes the law of your country apply to you.
10. Changes and the whole agreement
10.1. We may publish a new version of this agreement. A new version applies from your next paid period; the version you accepted applies to the period you have paid for.
10.2. This agreement, together with the Terms of Sale, is the whole agreement about the Software, unless we have signed a separate written agreement with you.
