CONDITIONS OF USE

If you do not agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement do not use or install Synkronizer, (the "SOFTWARE"):


SOFTWARE VERSIONS; TRIAL AND REGISTRED EDITIONS

The SOFTWARE exists in two editions: an "trial" and a "registered" edition. Both editions are subject to this Agreement. The "trial" edition can be downloaded for free from www.synkronizer.com . Important: Compared to the "registered" edition, the "trial" edition has only limited capabilities: It has full functionality but this functionality is only applicable to a limited range in the selected tables. Therefore, the outputs created by the "trial" edition might not be for further use than testing the functionality of the SOFTWARE. The intent of the "trial" edition is to demonstrate the SOFTWARE functionality, i.e., for testing the SOFTWARE.

In order to activate the "registered" edition, no further SOFTWARE download is required. However, in order to activate the "registered" edition a registration key is required. The registration key can be purchased on www.synkronizer.com for the fee prevailing at the time of the purchase. The required installation steps to complete the registration are described on www.synkronizer.com . Detailed installation steps will be sent by e-mail. With the completion of the registration the full capabilities of the SOFTWARE will be activated.


SCOPE OF LICENSE

The "registered" edition of the SOFTWARE may either be used by a single person who uses the SOFTWARE personally on up to two computers, or installed on a single computer such as a workstation, terminal or other device (hereinafter 'WORKSTATIONS') used non simultaneously by multiple people, but not both.

You may access the "registered" edition of the SOFTWARE through a network, provided that you have obtained individual licenses for the SOFTWARE covering all WORKSTATIONS that will access the SOFTWARE through the network. For instance, if 4 different WORKSTATIONS will access the SOFTWARE on the network, each WORKSTATION must have its own SOFTWARE license, regardless of whether they use the SOFTWARE at different times or concurrently.


TERMINATION

The License is effective until terminated. You may terminate this License at any time by permanently removing the SOFTWARE from all WORKSTATIONS together with any copies you may have. This Agreement, including the license to use the SOFTWARE, will terminate automatically if you fail to comply with any term or condition of this Agreement. In that case all your license keys for the SOFTWARE will be revoked. In case of termination for whatever reason no refunds are given.
