END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT For RoboDK Software By RoboDK Inc.

 

This End-User License Agreement ("EULA") is a legal agreement between you (either an individual or a single entity) and RoboDK Inc. for RoboDK Software later referred to as "the Software". The Software under the Trial Version License can be either a fully functional time-limited version or a feature-limited version, or a combination of these two types. Detailed description of the Trial Version restrictions is available on RoboDK Inc. web site and in each product's user-guide. The Software under this License is provided free of charge as long as it is a TRIAL VERSION. "Trial Version" means a version of the Software to be used only to review, demonstrate and evaluate the Software for an unlimited period of time. The Trial Version may have limited features and may lack the ability for the end-user to save the end product.

RoboDK Inc. products are shareware. It means that You can download the Trial Version for evaluation and, if You like the product, order the license. I.e. You can try before You buy. The functional peculiarities present in the Trial Version may not be a reason for refund request of a purchased license. If a Trial Version is a time-limited fully-functional version, allowing You to see and test all the features, your refund request will be declined if based on the absence of some certain feature or if some feature doesn't work as You expected it to work. All other refund cases are regulated by RoboDK Inc. Refund Policy. Even though a license fee is not paid for the use of Trial Version software, it does not mean that there are no conditions for using such software. This Software is copyrighted, and the owner of the copyright claims all exclusive rights to such software.
