Software End User License Agreement
Redistribution or Rental Not Permitted
These Terms apply to the Punch Clock(tm) software (and all content that can be installed into it) (the “Product”). BY CLICKING THE ACCEPTANCE BUTTON OR INSTALLING OR USING THE PRODUCT THE INDIVIDUAL OR ENTITY LICENSING THE PRODUCT (“LICENSEE”) IS CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY AND IS BECOMING A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT. IF LICENSEE DOES NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE BUTTON INDICATING NON-ACCEPTANCE MUST BE SELECTED, AND LICENSEE MUST NOT INSTALL OR USE THE SOFTWARE.
1. License Agreement
In this Agreement "Licensor" shall mean Punch Clock, Inc. except under the following circumstances: (a) if Licensee acquired the Product as a bundled component of a third party product or service, then such third party shall be Licensor so long as that third-party is expressly granted a license by Punch Clock, Inc; and (b) if any third party software is included as part of the default installation and no license is presented for acceptance the first time that third party software is invoked, then the use of that third party software shall be governed by this Agreement, but the term "Licensor," with respect to such third party software, shall mean the manufacturer of that software and not the Licensor. With the exception of the situation described in (b) above, the use of any included third party software product shall be governed by the third party's license agreement between Punch Clock, Inc. and that third-party as well as this Agreement, whether that license agreement is presented for acceptance the first time that the third party software is invoked, is included in a file in electronic form, or is included in the package in printed form. If more than one license agreement was provided for the Product, and the terms vary, the order of precedence of those license agreements is as follows: a signed agreement, this End User License Agreement ("EULA") available for review on the Licensor website, a printed or electronic agreement that states clearly that it supersedes other agreements, a printed agreement provided with the Product, an electronic agreement provided with the Product.
2. Licensee Grant
Licensor grants Licensee a non-exclusive and non-transferable license to reproduce and use for personal or internal business purposes one (1) logical copy of the executable code version of the Product on a single computer and/or local area network, provided any copy must contain all of the original proprietary notices. One logical copy means several instances of the software can be installed, so long as they all operate against the same database instituting one logical entity. If Licensee is operating a VPN or a WAN connecting multiple physical locations, then a separate license is required for each additional physical location. In the case of a single-use license, the license is only valid for a single computer. Licensee may not redistribute the Product unless Licensee has separately entered into a distribution agreement with the Licensor. Licensee agrees to take all reasonable steps to prevent and/or avoid making unauthorized copies of the Product. Except as otherwise provided in this EULA, and except for the exclusive purpose of using the Product, the Licensee may not use the term "Punch Clock" or "Punch Clock, Inc." for profit or non-profit since the term "Punch Clock" is a trademark owned by Punch Clock, Inc.
3. Restrictions
Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement, Licensee may not: (a) alter, merge, adapt, modify or create any derivative works of the Product or documentation, including, without limitation, translation or localization; (b) decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the Product (except to the extent applicable laws specifically prohibit such restriction); (c) redistribute, encumber, sell, rent, lease, sublicense or otherwise transfer rights to the Product; (d) remove or alter any trademark, logo, copyright or other proprietary notices, legends, symbols or labels in the Product; or (e) publish any results of benchmark tests run on the Product to a third party without the Licensor's prior written consent.
4. Fees
If Licensee wishes to receive the Product on media, there may be a charge for the media and for shipping and handling. Licensee is responsible for any and all taxes. Licensor reserves the right not to provide such media to Licensee if Licensee already received the software via online download and/or to limit the ability to install the Product from any such media to only one computer.
5. Termination
Without prejudice to any other rights, Licensor may terminate this Agreement if Licensee breaches any of its terms and conditions. On termination, Licensee shall destroy all copies of the Product.
6. Product Activation
All testing and evaluations of the Product are to be conducted while using the product in "DEMO" mode and before acquiring permanent activation codes from the Licensor. It is the sole responsibility of Licensee to provide the computer codes necessary to Licensor such that Licensor can provide permanent activation codes to Licensee. The failure of the Licensee to provide the computer codes, thereby delaying delivery of the permanent activation, shall not justify a refund of any money paid by Licensee. It is the sole responsibility of the Licensee to provide the Licensor with the afore mentioned computer codes for permanent activation within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of purchase, unless otherwise approved by the Licensor in writing. Failure to provide the computer codes within the required timeline shall result in the need of the Licensee to purchase a new replacement license. The sole obligation of Licensor after the transaction is completed will be to provide permanent activation codes after Licensee provides computer codes from previously downloaded DEMO version of Product. Activation codes are associated with hardware configuration of the computer(s) you install Punch Clock on. As such, these codes only work on those machines. If you move the Product to different hardware or do something to significantly change your hardware signature (replace or reformat harddrives, for example), you will be required to purchase an additional license or licenses, based on your configuration. If Licensee provides the wrong information to the Licensor and the Licensor provides permanent activation codes to that Licensee based on that information, then that is all that is required from the Licensor and as such that activity will be deemed concluded. If the Licensee then requests a second set of permanent activation codes or code, said codes will be provided after payment for the second code or codes requested by Licensee is received. Licensee is only entitled to set of Permanent activation codes, based on License purchased, for each "request for permanent activation codes or code".
7. Purchase
All sales when paid, are final. Licensee agrees that once payment has been received by email, via online transaction, via check or via any other payment method, the transaction will be considered "completed," and no refund will be given by Punch Clock, Inc. to Licensee or customer(s).
8. Proprietary Rights
Title, ownership rights and intellectual property rights in the Product shall remain in the Licensor and/or its suppliers. Licensee acknowledges such ownership and intellectual property rights and will not take any action to jeopardize, limit or interfere in any manner with the Licensor's or its suppliers' ownership of or rights with respect to the Product. The Product is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws and by international treaties. Title and related rights in the content accessed through the Product is the property of the applicable content owner and is protected by applicable law. The license granted under this Agreement gives Licensee no rights to such content.

IN ANY CASE, LICENSOR'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY UNDER ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE LESSER OF A) IN THE AGGREGATE THE SUM OF THE FEES LICENSEE PAID FOR THIS LICENSE (IF ANY) AND FEES FOR SUPPORT OF THE PRODUCT RECEIVED BY THE LICENSOR UNDER A SEPARATE SUPPORT AGREEMENT (IF ANY), OR B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD 100.00), WITH THE EXCEPTION OF DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF LICENSOR TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS THE LIMITATION OF DAMAGES IN SUCH CASES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE.
