Licensing at a Glance
- Subscription
The end-user licence agreement is between SECUDE Solutions AG, a Swiss corporation in Lucerne, and the licensee, and grants a nonexclusive, nontransferable, non-sublicensable licence for the licensee's users to use the software and documentation without modification.[1]
Under the EULA the licensee may copy the software onto systems it owns, leases or controls and make one back-up copy, and the agreement may not be assigned or transferred without Secude's prior written consent.[2]
The Americas subscription licence agreement grants a nonexclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable right to use the software for a limited period, with a term set in the associated quote that renews automatically for one-year periods unless three months' notice is given.[3]
Customers must report the information needed to calculate fees; Secude may audit use on 60 days' notice, under-licensing is charged at twice the fees for the detected use, and the customer bears audit costs if use exceeds the agreed use by more than 5%.[4]
Support under the subscription agreement covers software versions under an n-2 support scheme, where n is the currently available release.[5]
