Software License Agreement
This Software License Agreement, (this “Agreement“), is a binding agreement between Sensor Holdings Limited, a New Zealand company, company number 7730356, trading as StretchSense, (“Licensor” or “StretchSense”) and the person or entity clicking to “Accept” this License and use the Software (“Licensee” or “You”).
This is a License to use the StretchSense Software (“Software” as further defined below) that is provided in conjunction with your purchase of various StretchSense Products. This purchase may be memorialized and effected via the acceptance of a StretchSense Quote, a Purchase Order from You or an on-line purchase through the StretchSense website. You may also have purchased the StretchSense Products from an authorized StretchSense reseller. The Software is licensed to you, according to these terms and not sold to you outright.
Defined terms are included at the end of this License Agreement.
STRETCHSENSE PROVIDES THE SOFTWARE SOLELY ON THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND ON THE CONDITION THAT YOU ACCEPT AND COMPLY WITH THEM. BY CLICKING THE “ACCEPT” BUTTON YOU (A) ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE LEGALLY BOUND BY ITS TERMS; AND (B) REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT: (I) YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO ENTER INTO A BINDING AGREEMENT; AND (II) IF YOU ARE USING THIS FOR A CORPORATION, GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION, OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT, POWER, AND AUTHORITY TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF THE ENTITY AND BIND IT TO THE LICENSE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, STRETCHSENSE WILL NOT AND DOES NOT LICENSE THE SOFTWARE TO YOU AND YOU MUST NOT DOWNLOAD AND/OR INSTALL THE SOFTWARE.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IF YOU ARE PURCHASING THIS LICENSE IN THE UNITED STATES, THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.
1.1 For and in consideration of the License fee paid by You and on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, StretchSense grants to You, and You accept, a non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use the Software and the Documentation, solely in conjunction with the related StretchSense Products, utilizing the features and with the level of functionality that you purchased. The Term of Your license grant may be perpetual or may be limited in time, based on the License Term that you purchased.
1.2 Restrictions. You may only use the Software in conjunction with StretchSense Products with which it was purchased. You may not use the Software, the StretchSense Reference Data, the Raw Sensor Data or the Derived Data to train machine learning models for commercial purposes, but you may use the Software, the StretchSense Reference Data, the Raw Sensor Data and/or the Derived Data to train machine learning models for non-commercial uses, e.g. education or academic research.
1.3 Installation and Transfer. You may install the Software on any computer or server owned or controlled by you and may transfer it to any other computer or server owned by you, provided you comply with the Restrictions in Section 1.2 above. If you sell the StretchSense Products to another party, you may transfer the Software to them, provided that they will have to register the Software with StretchSense and you will have to delete all copies of the Software in your possession.
1.4 Intellectual Property Protection. Except as expressly permitted by law without the possibility of contractual waiver, You agree that you will not attempt to reverse engineer, decompile or reverse assemble the Software or otherwise seek to gain access to source code or underlying algorithms for the Software. You may not modify or create derivative works from the Software. You may make copies of the Software in object code form for archival and backup purposes only. You shall not delete, modify or obscure any trademark, copyright notice or other proprietary notice on the Software.
3.1 StretchSense warrants that for one year from the date of purchase, the Software will perform materially in conformance with the Documentation. If the Software does not perform in conformance with the Documentation, then, as your sole remedy and StretchSense’s sole responsibility, StretchSense will provide its standard support, as referenced on the StretchSense website, to attempt to bring the Software into conformance. If StretchSense is unable to do so, despite having a reasonable time to address the issue, then StretchSense may, in its sole discretion, accept return of the StretchSense Products and refund the Fee you paid.
3.2 During the Warranty Period StretchSense will provide Software Upgrades for no additional charge. Following expiration of the Warranty, You must purchase Upgrades separately.
3.3 EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 3, THE SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED TO LICENSEE “AS IS” AND WITHOUT ANY OTHER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, LICENSOR EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENTATION, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND WARRANTIES THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE.
6.1 EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES. SUBJECT TO THE EXCEPTION BELOW, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY, OR ITS SUPPLIERS, BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF USE, DATA, BUSINESS OR PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, ANTICIPATED SAVINGS) OR FOR THE COST OF PROCURING SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED UPON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), FAILURE OF A REMEDY TO ACCOMPLISH ITS PURPOSE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not limit liability due to death or physical personal injury caused by gross negligence, or liability due to fraudulent misrepresentations or willful misconduct, or liability arising from breaches of license grants or conditions hereunder. You acknowledge that StretchSense would not be able to provide the StretchSense Product(s) without the limitations set forth in this Section 6. You may have other rights under applicable mandatory local laws. This Agreement does not change Your rights under applicable mandatory local laws if such laws do not permit it to do so.
6.2 CAP ON LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT WILL STRETCHSENSE OR ITS SUPPLIERS’ AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR RELATING TO ITS SUBJECT MATTER, EXCEED WITH RESPECT TO ANY STRETCHSENSE PRODUCT, THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE STRETCHSENSE PRODUCT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
StretchSense shall defend any claim, suit or proceeding brought against You so far as it is based on a claim that the StretchSense Software supplied hereunder infringes a patent, copyright or trade secret, and shall pay all damages and costs finally awarded therein against You, provided that StretchSense is notified promptly in writing of the claim and given full authority, information and assistance for the defense of such claim. If a claim has occurred, or in StretchSense’ opinion is likely to occur, You agrees to permit StretchSense, at its option and expense, either to procure for You the right to continue using the Product or to replace or modify the same so that it becomes non-infringing, or, if neither of the foregoing alternatives is reasonably available, remove the Product, and refund to You the license fee for the remainder of your license term, to a maximum term of three years. StretchSense has no liability to the extent that any claim is based upon (i) the combination, operation or use of any Software supplied hereunder with equipment, devices or software not supplied by StretchSense, (ii) alteration or modification of any Software by anyone other than StretchSense or (iii) use of the Software in a manner or for a purpose not reasonably contemplated in the Documentation. The foregoing states the entire obligation of StretchSense with respect to infringement or the like.
(APPLICABLE ONLY IF YOU ARE RESIDENT OR DOMICILED IN THE UNITED STATES)
LICENSOR AND YOU ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.
ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND STRETCHSENSE ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOU’ PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS OR SOFTWARE FROM YOU, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA“) in accordance with the Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules“) then in effect, except as modified by this document. (The AAA Rules are available at adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.
The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the Agreement is void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
We will be responsible for paying any individual consumer’s arbitration/arbitrator fees unless the Arbitrator finds your claim to be frivilous.
You may elect to pursue your claim in small-claims court rather than arbitration if you provide us with written notice of your intention do so within 60 days of your purchase. The arbitration or
small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.
Licensee agrees that arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, NEITHER YOU NOR STRETCHSENSE WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER CUSTOMERS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.
If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
11.1 Neither party may assign this Agreement, or its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, either party may assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to a successor party in the event that such party merges or sells its relevant assets to such successor party, or engages in a similar type transaction, and provided that such successor party agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each party shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations of governmental bodies or agencies in its performance under this Agreement. Subject to Section 8 above, for United States residents this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (excluding its choice of law rules) for all other users this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New Zealand, without reference to its conflict of laws provisions.
11.2 Neither party shall, by lapse of time or inaction, be deemed to waive any breach by the other party of this Agreement. No waiver shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against which enforcement of such waiver is sought. The waiver by either party of a particular breach of this Agreement by the other party shall not be a continuing waiver of such breach, or of other breaches of this Agreement. Neither party shall be in default if failure to perform any obligation hereunder is caused by conditions beyond that party’s control, including acts of God, civil commotion, strikes, labor disputes, and governmental demands or requirements.
11.3 If any provision of this Agreement shall be held unenforceable or illegal, the validity of the remaining portions or provisions hereof shall not be affected thereby. The parties agree that this Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of their agreement and supersedes all proposals (oral or written), understandings, representations, conditions, warranties, covenants and all other communications between the parties relating to the licensing of the Software. The Parties may amend this Agreement only by a written instrument that refers to this Agreement and is duly signed by both parties.
