For the purposes of the provisions of Domestic Law and Law Applicable, which require that the so-called fields of exploitation this license applies to be defined, the fields of exploitation are “Permanent or temporary multiplication of the computer, mobile or web application in whole or in part, solely for the pur poses of the Licensee (including the Licensee’s business activity) and exclusively within the scope compliant with the purpose of CodeTwo Application and its docu mentation”. This License Agreement grants the Licensee the right to use CodeTwo Software and does not constitute an act of sale or other form of rights transfer to CodeTwo Software whatsoever. The Licensee’s rights shall not overstep at any circumstances or by any means beyond the scope of rights granted to the Licen see expressly and explicitly by this License Agreement. This License Agreement shall not embrace any, including implied, obligation of the Licensor to the Licensee unless expressly stated herein. In particular, this agreement shall not embrace the Licensor’s obligation to provide service consisting of the implementation of modifi cations in CodeTwo Software, installation, access, software testing or provision of training.

The Licensor provides CodeTwo Software on its Websites to enable direct access to web applications or to enable download of the installation files. The Licensor provides CodeTwo Software as paid and free of charge. Each CodeTwo Applica tion that is not expressly marked as “freeware” is paid and its use free of charge is forbidden, regardless of the fact whether the CodeTwo Application contains the limitations preventing its use (this does not apply to the Trial Period). A lawfully downloaded or accessed CodeTwo Application marked and made available by the Licensor as free of charge on the conditions set out by the Licensor shall not con tain time limitations in regard to its use by the Licensee.

After the Trial Period is over, the CodeTwo Application needs the Product License Key or needs to be activated from within the User Account in order to continue ope rating. Any use of CodeTwo Software exceeding the Trial Period expiration warning is strictly forbidden regardless of the fact whether CodeTwo Software contains limitations preventing its use.
The definition of the Scope of Use and License Term depends on CodeTwo Appli cation and is specified in the documentation of the individual CodeTwo Application as well as in the Sale Documents and the Licensing Document. The definition of the Scope of Use and the License Term may also be specified inside the CodeTwo Application or other documents related to the CodeTwo Application. The permissi ble Scope of Use and License Term for the Licensee for a given CodeTwo Appli cation is specified in the Licensing Document of the said Application. If a CodeTwo Application is marked and made available by the Licensor as free of charge, the permissible Scope of Use and License Term is specified in the CodeTwo Applica tion. The Scope of Use may be specified separately or jointly by determining:
the number of Authorized Users or mailboxes,
the number of servers or tenants,
the specification in a different manner determined by the Licensor.
The License Term can be specified by the Licensor as time unlimited (lifetime license) or as time limited with a specified time period or end date (time-limited license).

Any CodeTwo Application that is not clearly marked as licensed for an indefinite period of time shall be licensed with a time limit and its use is permit ted exclusively during the period the license was issued for. The use of CodeTwo Application outside the License Term is forbidden regardless of the fact whether the CodeTwo Application includes limitations preventing its use after the License Term expires.

The license fees for using CodeTwo Software depend on the parameters specified upon purchase of the right to use a given CodeTwo Application which include, but are not limited to, the Scope of Use and the License Term. The license fees may be set as one-off fees or periodic fees. The license fees paid by the Licensee shall not be reimbursed unless it is expressly stated otherwise in the remaining provisions of this License Agreement or in the provisions of the Documents of Sale.

By this License Agreement, the Licensor is not entitled to use other application than lawful ly purchased licensed for the version of CodeTwo Application. By this License Agreement, the Licensee is entitled to use Updates to CodeTwo Application in ac cord with the provisions of this License Agreement.

The act of installation or any other form of use of the Update to CodeTwo Application shall mean the Licensee approves the additional conditions that apply. Otherwise, the Licensee is required to immediately cancel the process of updating CodeTwo Application.

The limitations on the Licensor’s liabili ty shall also apply to the employees and programmers of the Licensor. In the event that the mandatory regulations of the Domestic Law or Law Applicable may not be waived in an agreement or do not allow disclaiming of the Licensor’s liability in line with the previous points, the waiver of the Licensor’s liability and liability limitations towards the Licensee shall not apply to the extent that is not legally permitted.
