Licence agreement

§1 Subject of the agreement

Subject of this agreement is the grant of a not exclusive, not transferable right to use the software SW-Lookup®, called SOFTWARE PRODUCT below, on data processing equipment of the purchaser of this license, called user below. The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is licensed, not sold.

§2 Conclusion of this agreement

This agreement is concluded between the producer of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT, friendlyGIS ® GmbH in D-33332 Gütersloh, Germany, and the user by installing and using the SOFTWARE PRODUCT.

§3 Licensed rights

The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is protected by copyright laws and international copyright treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties. The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is licensed, not sold.

The user has aquired the right to run a specific number of PeerServers by purchasing a specific number of licences. It is explicitly indicated that running a PeerServer requires a Smallworld® GIS workstation with a valid Smallworld® licence. The number of licences refers to the number of PeerServers running concurrently on the user's network. The number of client accesses through customary HTML browsers is not limited.

This licence agreement grants the user the following rights:

  • Installation and usage

    The user may integrate the SW-Lookup® PeerServer in any number of Smallworld® GIS images. The licence file on the SW-Lookup® dispatcher takes care of limiting the allowed number of concurrently running licences.

  • Distribution and backup

    The user may create backup copies of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT. He may also pass the SOFTWARE PRODUCT to third parties for test purposes. He may NOT pass on the licence key.

§4 Other rights and restrictions

  • Limitations on Reverse Engineering, Decompilation, and Disassembly

    The user is not allowed to reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the SOFTWARE PRODUCT or parts of it, except and only to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation. The parts of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT written in MAGIK may be changed by the user; in this case, however, warranty for the affected parts of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT is voided. The user is adviced to keep track of his modifications and store the modifications separately in order to prevent loss of his modifications in case of product updates.

  • Software Transfer

    The user may permanently transfer all of his rights under this license agreement provided the recipient agrees to the terms of this license agreement. In this case, the licence for the former user is voided.

  • Termination

    Without prejudice to any other rights, friendlyGIS ® may terminate this license agreement if the user fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this license agreement. In such event, the user must destroy all copies of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT and all of its component parts.

  • Rental

    The user may not sell, rent, or lease the SOFTWARE PRODUCT.

§5 Warranty and limitation of liability

  • Limited Warranty

    friendlyGIS ® assures the usability of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT to the extent described in the manual, provided that the requirements described there regarding hardware, software and operating systems are guaranteed. It is explicitly pointed out that for each PeerServer the user needs a Smallworld® GIS workstation with a valid licence. The warranty is valid for 12 months after purchase of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT.

  • Support

    friendlyGIS ® provides free support via EMail or telephone (+49)(0)5241 / 94 24 58 in english or german language for the period of time described below. Within this period of time, called support period below, the user also has the right to access newer versions of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT for free through electronic transmission (download or EMail).

    SW-Lookup® may be licenced by permanent licence or one-year licence.

    A permanent licence includes the support for the first 12 months after purchase of the licence. After this period the support period may be prolonged by another 12 months by paying a support fee. The support fee is to be payed for each 12 months in advance.

    If the user has purchased SW-Lookup® through one-year licenses, the support period equals the licence period.

  • User's rights in the case of the producer's vanishing

    If the producer or its successor should not be willing or able to ensure further maintenance and development of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT, ALL users have the right to receive a copy of the complete development material such as source code and documentation in order to organise further development of the product.
