If you do not agree with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, click on the DISAGREE button and return the Software, along with the packaging and related materials, to Epson or the place of purchase for a full refund. 1. Grant of License. Epson grants you a limited, nonexclusive license to install and use the Software on hard disks or other computer storage devices, provided that the Software is used only in a single location (e.g., a home or office or place of business) and only in connection with Epson Hardware owned by you. You may make backup copies of the Software, as necessary, provided the backup is only used to support your use of the Epson Hardware. 2. Upgrades. If you acquire an upgrade, updated version, modified version, or additions to or for the Software from Epson, the upgrade, updated version, modified version, or addition, shall be included in the term Software and governed under this Agreement. 3. Other Rights and Limitations. You agree not to modify, adapt or translate the Software and further agree not to attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to discover the source code of the Software. You may not rent, lease, distribute or lend the Software to third parties. You may, however, transfer all of your rights to use the Software to another person or legal entity, provided that the recipient also agrees to the terms of this Agreement and you transfer the Software, including all copies, updates and prior versions, and the Epson Hardware, to such person or entity. The Software is licensed as a single unit, and its component programs may not be separated for some other use. Further, you agree not to place the Software onto or into a shared environment accessible via a public network such as the Internet or otherwise accessible by others outside the single location referred to in Section 1 above. 4. Ownership. Title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in and to the Software shall remain with Epson or its suppliers. The Software is protected by Australia and New Zealand Copyright Law and international copyright treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties. There is no transfer to you of any title to or ownership of the Software and this License shall not be construed as a sale of any rights in the Software. You agree not to remove or alter any copyright, trademark, registered mark and other proprietary notices on any copies of the Software. Epson and its suppliers reserve all rights not granted. 5. Multiple Versions of Software. You may receive or obtain the Software in more than one version (e.g. for different operating environments; two or more language translation versions; downloaded from an Epson server), however, regardless of the type or number of copies you receive, you still may use only the media or version appropriate for the license granted in Section 1 above. 6. Limited Warranty and Remedy. Epson warrants to you that the Software will perform substantially in accordance with the related explanatory written materials for a period of the ninety (90) days following the date of original Epson Hardware purchase. Epson does not warrant that the operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free or that the functions of the Software will meet your needs or requirements. Epson's sole and exclusive liability and your exclusive remedy for breach of warranty shall be limited to either, at Epson's option, the replacement of the media for the Software or to refund your money upon returning the Software and Epson Hardware. Any replacement Software will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer. If the above remedy fails for any reason, Epson's entire liability for a breach of warranty shall be limited to a refund of the price paid for the Epson Hardware. Epson is not liable for performance delays or for nonperformance due to causes beyond its reasonable control. This Limited Warranty is void if failure of the Software resulted from accident, abuse, or misapplication. THE STATED LIMITED WARRANTIES AND REMEDY ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHERS. EPSON DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS, HOWEVER, DO NOT ALLOW EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, AND IN SUCH STATES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. 7. Limitation of Liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL EPSON OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, WHATSOEVER, WHETHER DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER ARISING UNDER CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY, MISREPRESENTATION, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS, ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF EPSON OR ITS REPRESENTATIVE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. 8. Export Restriction. You agree that the Software will not be shipped, transferred or exported into any country or used in any manner prohibited by the United States Export Administration Act or any other export laws, restrictions or regulations. 9. Internet Connections. The Software may have the ability to connect over the Internet to transmit data to and from your computer. For example, if you install the Software, the Software may cause your computer to send information about your Epson Hardware such as model and serial number, country identifier, language code, operating system information, and Hardware usage information to an Epson Internet site which may return promotional or service information to your computer for display. If you do not wish to send information about your Epson Hardware or to receive promotional or service information, you will be able to disable this feature through the Monitoring Preferences window. The Software may also display an option to buy ink from Epson. If you click on the buy button, the Software will cause your computer to display Epson Hardware cartridge types and ink levels and provide other information about your cartridges, such as the colors, available cartridge sizes, and prices for replacement ink cartridges, which you may purchase online from Epson. You may also be able to download from an Epson Internet site updates or upgrades to the Software if such updates or upgrades are made available. If you agree to install the Software, any transmissions to or from the Internet, and data collection and use, will be in accordance with Epson's then-current Privacy Policy, which may be found at www.epson.com.au/company/other/privacy_policy.asp and by installing the Software you agree that such then-current Privacy Policy shall govern such activities. In addition, if you install the Software and register your Epson Hardware with Epson, and/or you create an account at the Epson Shop Online, and provided you consent to such use, you agree that Epson may merge the data collected in connection with installation of the Software, registration of your Epson Hardware and/or creation of your Epson Store account, consisting of personal information and non-personally identifiable information, and use such merged data to send you Epson promotional or service information. You may discontinue such promotional messages by disabling this feature through the unsubscribe page on the Epson website and opting out of marketing notifications. Governing Law and General Provisions. This Agreement shall be governed and construed under the laws in the State of New South Wales, Australia without regard to its conflicts of law rules. This Agreement is the entire agreement between the parties related to the Software and supersedes any purchase order, communication, advertisement, or representation concerning the Software. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns and legal representatives. If any provision herein is found void or unenforceable, it will not affect the validity of the balance of the Agreement, which shall remain valid and enforceable according to its terms.
