You do not acquire any rights, express or implied, other than those expressly granted in this EULA. You agree that You will use the Software Product only as expressly permitted in this EULA and You will comply with any technical limitations in the Software Product that only allow You to use the Software Product in certain ways.
In consideration of full payment of the Software Product license fee when due and subject to Your compliance with all of the terms and conditions contained in this EULA, Schneider Electric grants to You a non-exclusive non-transferable, limited, world-wide unless geographically restricted, license right to use the Software Product described in the Order Confirmation, in the Documentation or in the About Box, related to said Software Product for the term identified therein and in accordance with the license model identified therein. The Software Product may only be used for purposes of Your ordinary business by the particular named user(s), in the particular location(s), on the particular device(s) and/or on the particular system(s) for which You have been licensed such Software Product, as those named user(s), location(s), device(s) and/or system(s) are identified in the Order Confirmation, in the Documentation or in the About Box. If the Order Confirmation, the Documentation, or - the About Box fail to state a duration/term of the license granted hereunder then such duration/term shall be deemed to be one (1) year from the date the Software Product is delivered to You (unless a trial license, in which case the duration/term shall be deemed to be thirty (30) days). The Software Product will be provided to You in object code (machine-readable) form only and under no circumstances is Schneider Electric obligated to disclose the source code of the Software Product to You, unless such obligation is required in accordance with Section 11.

You do not permit further redistribution of the Software Product (including Your modifications thereto) by third parties, except when and as part of Your Authorized Applications; and

You perform such embedding or integration in a manner that complies with the Documentation and this EULA to the extent said Documentation contains any instructions or recommendations in relation therewith, and
You comply - with respect to Your own products and said third party products - with each of the same requirements as set forth hereinabove concerning Authorized Applications; said foregoing requirements shall apply mutatis mutandis to any of Your own products or third party products within which You embed or otherwise integrate the Software Product, and any reference made to the term ‘Authorized Application’ in the foregoing provision shall be deemed for the purpose of this present Section to be a reference to Your own products or third party products embedding or otherwise integrating the Software Product.

You acknowledge that, if the Software Product is protected by a lock, the Software Product cannot be used except in conjunction with a valid software key code or a hardware key (hereinafter ‘License Key’) provided to You or to another person on Your behalf by or on behalf of Schneider Electric or its authorised reseller.
You agree that such License Key is to be used solely with the Software Product for which it is provided. While Schneider Electric may, in its sole discretion, provide You with the License Key prior to receipt from You of the applicable license fees (if any), You will remain obligated to pay such fees to Schneider Electric.
Any and all risk in the media on which the Software Product and License Key are provided passes to You upon delivery. In the event that the Software Product or License Key is lost, stolen or destroyed after delivery, Schneider Electric will not be required to replace the Software Product or License Key.
In the event of a lost, stolen or destroyed License Key, and if Schneider Electric agrees to replace the License Key, prior to Schneider Electric providing a replacement License Key to You, You must:
(i) provide a statutory declaration signed by You to Schneider Electric that confirms You have permanently lost or destroyed the Software Product or License Key that is to be replaced and that You have not retained the Software Product or License Key in any form nor included it with any other software or system owned, operated or controlled by You; and
(ii) comply with any other direction of Schneider Electric related to the replacement.
If the License Key is faulty, and provided that such fault is attributable to an act or omission by Schneider Electric, Schneider Electric will replace the License Key if the faulty License Key is returned within the warranty period specified by Schneider Electric. Subject to Section 9 “Warranties” below, if the faulty License Key is not returned within said warranty period, Schneider Electric will replace the License Key upon payment by You of an administration fee to be advised by Schneider Electric at the time.
When applicable as per Section 1 above, the License Key might be rendered unusable (with or without prior warning) upon expiry of the trial period or of the limited period of time for which the license was granted to You.
The Software Product, as well as all rights, title, interest, technology and know-how, whether patented or not, embodied in the Software Product, as well as all industrial and/or intellectual property rights attached to the Software Product, including but not limited to copyright, shall remain the sole property of Schneider Electric, to the exclusion of any third party software embedded in the Software Product or otherwise provided to You with the Software Product.
Nothing in this EULA shall be deemed to convey to You any of Schneider Electric’s proprietary rights in the Software Product; all rights not specifically granted in this EULA are reserved by Schneider Electric. Schneider Electric does not sell the Software Product to You but only grants You the license rights defined in this EULA.
All industrial and/or intellectual property rights pertaining to any third party software embedded in the Software Product or otherwise provided to You with the Software Product shall remain vested in the relevant third party and there will be no deemed or implied transfer of ownership to You of such third party proprietary rights.
Should You become aware of any infringement to the proprietary rights of Schneider Electric on the Software Product, You shall immediately inform Schneider Electric of such infringement and provide all relevant information required by Schneider Electric to defend its interests.
Schneider Electric and other trademarks contained in the Software Product are registered trademarks of the Schneider Electric group. Except as otherwise expressly prescribed by statute under applicable law, You may not remove or alter any trademark, trade names, product names, logo, copyright or other proprietary notices, legends, symbols or labels in the Software Product. This EULA does not authorise You to use any names or trademarks of Schneider Electric or its authorised resellers.
Schneider Electric warrants that it is entitled to license and otherwise make available the Software Product and Documentation to You in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the EULA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no warranties shall apply to the license types referred to in Section 3.1.
The warranty period shall be of ninety (90) days from the date of delivery of the Software Product to You.
Within such warranty period Schneider Electric warrants that: (i) the Software Product will perform substantially in accordance with its specifications as described in the Documentation, and (ii) the medium on which the Software Product is provided to You (if provided under a tangible form) and the License Key (if any) will be free from defects in materials and workmanship.
Schneider Electric’s sole obligation and Your sole remedy with respect to the foregoing limited warranty shall be, at Schneider Electric's option to fix the defect or non-compliance or to replace the defective Software Product, the medium or the License Key without charge to You, provided that (i) You give notice of the defect to Schneider Electric within the above mentioned warranty period, and (ii) the defect does not fall under the exclusions set under Section 9.4 below.
Schneider Electric’s warranty shall be excluded to the extent the Software Product, its medium or License Key has been altered or fails to perform in any way, as the result of Your negligent or unauthorized use such as for instance but not limited to the use of the Software Product with third party products (hardware, software, firmware or operating system) which are not intended by Schneider Electric for use with the Software Product, or the utilization of an improper hardware or software key (if applicable) with the Software Product, or the unauthorized maintenance of the Software Product.
Any replacement Software Product, media or License Key supplied to You pursuant to Section 9.3 hereinabove will be warranted for the remainder of the original ninety (90) warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer. Laws of some countries (either on federal or state level) do not allow limitations on duration of an express or implied warranty, so the above or any other limitation provided herein may not apply to You. In such event, such warranties are limited to the minimum warranty period legally allowed in said countries.
Schneider Electric’s warranty shall also be excluded in case of defect or malfunction of the Software Product, to the extent such defect or malfunction could have been prevented by implementing the Software Product update or upgrade made available by Schneider Electric pursuant to Section 5.4, which You were entitled and encouraged to do.
TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW (ON BOTH FEDERAL AND STATE LEVEL, WHEN APPLICABLE), SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY THAN THOSE CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 9 AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT, ITS UPDATES AND ITS DOCUMENTATION, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE OR SAMPLE. FURTHER, WHILE SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC HAS TAKEN REASONABLE STEPS TO ENSURE THE ACCURACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN OR SHOWN BY THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT AND ITS DOCUMENTATION, SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO WHETHER THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT OR ANY INFORMATION CONTAINED IN OR SHOWN BY THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT AND ITS DOCUMENTATION WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, EXPECTATIONS OR PURPOSES OR THE OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OR THAT THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT WILL BE PROTECTED AGAINST ALL POSSIBLE SECURITY THREATS, INTERNET THREATS OR OTHER THREATS OR INTERRUPTIONS.
No oral or written information, statement, opinion or advice allegedly given by Schneider Electric, its authorized resellers, agents or employees, or anyone else on its behalf, shall create any liability or in any way extend or vary the scope of the warranties expressed in this EULA.
You expressly acknowledge and accept that Your use of the Software Product and the performance, fitness and/or accuracy of the Software Product for any application, environment or purpose within or for which You shall use the Software Product, is and shall remain Your sole and full responsibility, unless Schneider Electric has expressly agreed upon such application, environment or purpose and has provided You express warranties as to the use, performance, fitness and/or accuracy of the Software Product when used within such agreed environment and for such agreed application or purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Software Product is provided “as is”, with all faults and without warranty of any kind not contained in Section 9.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS EULA OR IN THE ORDER CONFIRMATION, IN NO EVENT SHALL SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC NOR ANYONE ELSE WHO HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE CREATION, PRODUCTION OR DELIVERY OF THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC’S LICENSORS, BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INTANGIBLE, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSS, EXPENSE OR CAUSE OF ACTION, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF USE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, BUSINESS GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA OR FOR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY OR NON-PECUNIARY LOSS OR DAMAGE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS EULA, OR THE USE, INABILITY TO USE OR MISUSE OF THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT, EVEN IF SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS EULA OR IN THE ORDER CONFIRMATION, SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES AND EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS EULA OR THE USE, INABILITY TO USE OR MISUSE OF THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE OR OTHERWISE SHALL IN NO CASE EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO LICENSE THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT WHICH CAUSED THE DAMAGES OR EXPENSES.
You shall indemnify and hold Schneider Electric harmless from any and all claims, damages, demands or proceedings (including attorney’s fees) brought against Schneider Electric, including those brought by any third party arising out of or in connection with the use, inability to use or misuse of the Software Product by You, and whether based in contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability, statute or otherwise, unless and to the extent any such claim resulted from Schneider Electric’s non-fulfillment of the warranty set out in Section 9.1.
The license granted under this EULA does not cover any modification, update, translation or adaptation, whether authorized or not, that might have been made to the Software Product by any person other than Schneider Electric where the Software Product is supplied along with a third party product. Such modifications shall be governed by the terms of license issued by such third party. Schneider Electric shall in no case be liable, whether in contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability, statute or otherwise, for damages or consequences arising out of or in connection with said modification, update, translation or adaptation and makes no representation or warranty in connection therewith.
Notwithstanding any other term of this EULA, Schneider Electric's liability arising out of this EULA is reduced proportionally to the extent to which the act or omission of You or any other third person contributed to the loss or damage incurred.
In case the Software Product is intended as per its Documentation to be used for the purpose of collecting, storing and/or processing data such as but not limited to personal individual information, it is Your sole and full responsibility when making such use of the Software that You comply with any applicable data protection laws and regulations. In no event shall Schneider Electric be held liable for Your use of the data collected, stored or processed by the Software or Your non-compliance with any applicable data protection laws and regulations and You shall indemnify and hold Schneider Electric harmless from any and all claims, damages, demands or proceedings (including attorney’s fees) brought against Schneider Electric, including those brought by any third party, arising out of or in connection with any breach by You of any such laws or regulations.
The limitations or exclusions of warranties and liability contained in this EULA shall apply only to the extent permitted by the law applicable to this EULA and, in particular, do not affect or prejudice the statutory rights which, as the case may be, will benefit You under any mandatory or public order laws or regulation applicable in any such country (on either federal or state level, when applicable).
In case the Software Product was furnished to You by any authorized reseller or other sales representative or another third party supplying the Software Product with or without a third party product, Schneider Electric shall in no event be a party to any purchase order or other agreement between You and such third party and shall not assume or otherwise bear any liability thereunder, with the consequence that any and all claims You may have in relation to the Software Products shall be directed at such third party and shall be subject to the liability sections in any purchase order or other agreement between You and such third party. Schneider Electric shall assume no liability whatsoever under such sections or be bound by their wording.
Subject to the limitations of liability set forth in Sections 10.2 and 10.3 of this EULA, Schneider Electric will defend and indemnify You against a third party claim that the Software Products infringe any copyright enforceable in the jurisdiction where Schneider Electric has its registered office or principal place of business, or misappropriates any trade secret protected under the laws of such jurisdiction (the “Included Jurisdiction”), provided that: (i) You notify Schneider Electric in writing within thirty (30) days of the claim; (ii) Schneider Electric has sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations; and (iii) You provide Schneider Electric with the assistance, information and authority necessary in order for Schneider Electric to perform its obligations under this Section.
Schneider Electric will have no obligation to You under this Section relating to claims which arise outside of the Included Jurisdiction, nor for any claims not expressly set out in Section 10.10 above.
If the Software Products are held, or are believed by Schneider Electric, to infringe, then Schneider Electric will have the option, at its expense, to: (i) modify the Software Products to be noninfringing; or (ii) obtain for You a license to continue using the Software Products. If, in Schneider Electric’s sole discretion, it is not economically or commercially reasonable to perform either of the above options then Schneider Electric may terminate the license for the infringing Software Products and refund to You the license fee You paid to Schneider Electric for the infringing Software Products.
The foregoing Schneider Electric obligations do not apply when the claim of infringement results from or is related to: (i) Software Products provided pursuant to Your designs, drawings or specifications; (ii) Software Products stored, used or maintained other than in accordance with Schneider Electric’s instructions or recommendations or other than for Your internal business purposes; (iii) claims of infringement resulting from combining the Software Products provided hereunder with any other item not furnished by Schneider Electric; (iv) modifications to the Software Products without the prior written consent of Schneider Electric; (v) software or products supplied or designed by You or third parties; or (vi) Your failure to use corrections or enhancements made available by Schneider Electric.
This Section 10.10 states Schneider Electric’s entire liability and Your sole and exclusive remedy for infringement.
The Software Product may embed or be provided to You with third party software(s), in unmodified or modified form. In such case Schneider Electric shall make such information available to You.
By accepting this EULA, You are also accepting the terms and conditions of the software licenses from any third party (hereinafter “Alternative Licenses”) owning the intellectual property rights in said third party software(s), and any use You will make of any such third party software(s) being part of the Software Product is subject to the terms of those Alternative Licenses. Further to the above, in relation to parts of the Software Product that are subject to Alternative Licenses, Schneider Electric's liability shall be further limited in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Alternative License and Schneider Electric will in no event be subject to a wider or more substantial liability than what is evident from such Alternative Licenses, unless and to the extent applicable mandatory law requires otherwise.
Further, the Software Product may contain code, including third party code, for which Schneider Electric is required to provide attribution. Some of this code may be released under Alternative License terms. Such code is not licensed under this EULA and shall be subject only to the Alternative License which shall constitute the sole license for such code and shall govern the relation between You and the alternative licensor. This EULA does not alter any rights or obligations You may have under these Alternative Licenses. Schneider Electric provides no warranty whatsoever in relation to code subject to such Alternative Licenses, unless and to the extent applicable mandatory law requires otherwise.
