This End-User License Agreement (“Agreement”) is a legal agreement between you (an individual or a single entity) and Candelavet (“Candelavet”) for the Software Product which may include software components, media, printed materials, and “on-line” or electronic documentation (“Software”). By installing, copying, or otherwise using the Software, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, do not install or use the Software.
The Software is protected by copyright laws and international copyright treaties, as well as by other intellectual property laws and treaties. The Software is licensed, not sold.
1. Grant of License. The Software is licensed as follows:
(a) Single User License. A Single User License grants the right to a single user to use of the Software. You may install the software on one computer. You may not have more than one person using one Single User License at any given time.
If you acquire a Single User License of the Software for business purposes, and install it on a single stand-alone computer, you may, for your convenience, allow the primary user of the Software to also install it on their portable or home computer, so long as the Software is not used on both computers concurrently.
If the Software will be used on both computers at the same time, another license must be purchased.
(b) Backup Copies. You may make copies of the Software for backup and archival purposes only. The backup copies must include all copyright information contained in the original.
(c) Multi-User License (if applicable). If the Software is labeled to allow more than one license, then Candelavet grants you the right to install the Software on a network server, and run it on an internal network, provided that the number of named users does not exceed the number of copies of the Software purchased.
(d) Trial and/or Demo Software (if applicable). If this Software is marked “Trial”, then this license to use the Software under the conditions set herein is granted to you for 30 (thirty) days from the first time you run the Software. After the period specified is over, this grant of license expires.
If this Software is marked “Demo”, it can be used and distributed without limitations.

4. Upgrades. Notwithstanding any other terms in this Agreement, if the Software is licensed as an upgrade or update, then you may only use the Software to replace the previous validly licensed versions of the same Software.
