Soccer Scorecard Version 4.02 Copyright (c) 1995 - A & K S McKay All Rights Reserved LICENSE.TXT The following terms and conditions apply to the Soccer Scorecard application. Users must accept all of these conditions, or cease using the application immediately. GENERAL (ALL VERSIONS) ====================== * The authors shall maintain all proprietary and intellectual rights to this application in perpetuity regardless of any other action. * Soccer Scorecard is supplied as-is and without warranty, either expressed or implied. The sole exception is with regard to defective media which shall be replaced free of charge providing the defective goods are returned within 30 days of original shipment from the authors. * The user is responsible for ensuring the software meets their individual needs and fitness for a particular purpose prior to registration - as per the shareware concept. * Once the registration fee is accepted and the user is provided with the full set of registration benefits, this fee shall become non-returnable. * The authors shall not assume nor accept responsibility for any damage or risk associated with the installation and/or use of this software, howsoever caused and whether consequential or otherwise. * All intellectual rights pertaining to Soccer Scorecard are owned by and shall remain in the ownership of the authors, in perpetuity. The act of registration does not transfer these rights. * All users of Soccer Scorecard shall at all times act in accordance with the bona-fide interests of the authors, and shall indemnify the authors against any associated costs, litigation, or other risks which could be detrimental to the interests of the authors. * The user understands and accepts that the authors of the application have not set out to mislead the user, or misrepresent the capabilities of the application. In particular the user is required to accept that the application has no guarantee whatsoever with regard to increasing the chances of winning football pools competitions. SHAREWARE VERSION ================= * May be installed and used for evaluation purposes only for a reasonable period of time which shall never exceed 30 (thirty) days from first installation. * On completion of the evaluation period (maximum 30 days from first installation) the user/evaluator shall EITHER seek to register the product with the authors by sending the required registration fee OR cease using the product immediately and delete all copies of the software from his/her computer equipment immediately. * May be distributed to others and/or placed on publicly accessible bulletin board systems (BBS). It is however required that the entire set of shareware files, as listed in FILELIST.TXT, are distributed without change. Additional files included with the distribution shall be limited simply to one advertisement file relating to the BBS or other distribution means. * If Soccer Scorecard is provided in archive form (ZIP, LZH or other proprietary archive methods) then the end user shall not be required to pay a fee in order to access the contents of the archive. * Distributors are not allowed to charge a fee for Soccer Scorecard. However a reasonable administration, packaging and handling fee may be acceptable PROVIDING that the distributor makes it clear that such fees are not seen to be directly associated with the application itself. Users shall not be lead to believe they are making payment for the software, or any contribution towards registration. * For distribution purposes end-users must have a reasonable means of access to these terms and conditions. These terms and conditions shall not be hidden or require specialised knowledge in order to access. * It is expressly forbidden for anyone to ship current season results with the shareware version, or to otherwise make these available to shareware users. * In no event shall any claim or other litigation exceed the value of a single registration fee. REGISTERED VERSION ================== * The authors maintain the right to refuse registration to anyone, even if the required registration fee is provided. Such registration fee shall always be returned promptly in full in the event that registration is refused. * The registered version is licensed for use by an individual. Only that individual has the right to make use of the application. * The registered version can never be distributed or made available to others in any form whatsoever. * User may make a reasonable number of backup copies of the registered version, up to three maximum. These backups shall not be made available to others. * The registration fee shall be accepted on the assumption that the user is familiar with and accepts these terms and conditions in full. * The act of registration, and acceptance thereof, shall provide the user with the right to continue using the application (as supplied at the time of registration) without further time limit. No other rights shall be transferred. * Registration does not confer upon the user the belief that he/she will receive future/enhanced versions of the application free of charge. The authors may make available new versions which might be shipped free to previously registered users - but this is not an automatic entitlement and normally the authors would expect to need to cover their costs at the very least. * Registration is not transferrable, although the authors shall be pleased to consider this based upon individual merits. * Registration is revocable by the authors at any time in the event that the user is deemed to be acting against the bona-fide interests of the authors. In the unlikely even this situation arises the registration fee shall be non-returnable. * Data files created and used by the application shall not be distributed or made generally available to others by any means whatsoever. $Revision: 1.4 $
