End-User License Agreement
This is the same EULA presented in the AltaiPlot installer. Please read it before installing or using the Software.
1. LICENSE GRANT
Subject to the terms of this Agreement and, where applicable, a valid license key or active trial/subscription, Licensor grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Software solely for scientific data visualization, analysis, curve fitting, and publication-quality figure generation on the number of devices permitted by your license tier. License tiers (including Personal, Educational, Commercial, Subscription, Floating, or Lifetime licenses) may provide different usage rights, activation limits, and device allowances. Such rights are defined by the applicable purchase terms. Educational licenses may only be used for non-commercial teaching, learning, and academic research unless explicitly stated otherwise.
2. TRIAL PERIOD
A fully functional evaluation version of the Software may be provided free of charge for a limited period. No payment information is required to begin a trial. Upon expiration of the trial period, the Software automatically switches to Restricted Mode until a valid license is activated.
3. RESTRICTED MODE
Without an active license or trial, the Software operates in Restricted Mode. Restricted Mode permits basic data viewing, loading, and plotting. Advanced analysis tools, fitting features, publication export formats, automation, batch processing, and premium functionality are disabled. Exported files may contain evaluation watermarks until a valid license is activated.
4. LICENSE RESTRICTIONS
You may not: • redistribute, sell, sublicense, rent, lease, lend, or transfer the Software or any license key; • reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify, or create derivative works of the Software except where expressly permitted by applicable law; • remove or alter copyright notices, trademarks, license information, or proprietary notices; • bypass, disable, or circumvent licensing or security mechanisms; • use the Software or any portion thereof to develop, benchmark, train, or create a competing commercial software product.
5. OWNERSHIP
The Software is licensed, not sold. Licensor retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including all copyrights, patents, trade secrets, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights. Nothing in this Agreement transfers ownership of the Software or grants any rights to Licensor's trademarks except as expressly stated herein.
6. YOUR DATA
All files, projects, worksheets, figures, scripts, analyses, publications, and exported results created or processed using the Software remain entirely your property. Licensor claims no ownership over your scientific data or any outputs generated by the Software. The Software processes data locally on your computer. Your scientific data is never uploaded or transmitted by the Software unless you explicitly invoke a feature requiring network communication. License activation transmits only information necessary for license validation (such as the license key and a hardware identifier) and never transmits your scientific datasets.
7. TELEMETRY AND PRIVACY
Anonymous usage telemetry and crash reports are entirely OPT-IN and disabled by default. No diagnostic information is transmitted unless you explicitly enable telemetry in the Software settings. You may disable telemetry at any time. For additional information regarding data handling, please refer to the Privacy Policy.
8. SOFTWARE UPDATES
The Software may periodically check for available updates. Installation of updates is optional unless a particular update is required for license validation, compatibility, security, or continued operation of online services. Certain licensing functions may periodically require an Internet connection.
9. THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE
The Software may include or depend upon third-party open-source software distributed under their respective licenses. Such components remain subject to their original license terms. References within the Software or website to third-party software products, technologies, file formats, or trademarks are provided solely to describe compatibility, interoperability, migration, or supported import/export capabilities. Such references do not imply any affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement, certification, authorization, or partnership with the respective trademark owners.
10. SCIENTIFIC RESULTS
The Software is intended to assist scientific analysis. Although reasonable efforts are made to provide reliable calculations and visualization tools, Licensor does not guarantee that analysis results, numerical outputs, curve fitting, simulations, or generated figures are free from error or suitable for any specific scientific, engineering, regulatory, medical, industrial, or commercial purpose. You remain solely responsible for independently verifying all results before relying upon them in research, publications, engineering decisions, regulatory submissions, or any other application. AI-assisted features, if provided, are intended solely as analytical assistance and do not replace scientific judgment.
11. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LICENSOR DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, AND UNINTERRUPTED OPERATION.
12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LICENSOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR REVENUE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE. LICENSOR'S TOTAL LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE SOFTWARE LICENSE DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
13. TERMINATION
This Agreement remains effective until terminated. Licensor may terminate this Agreement immediately if you violate any provision herein. Upon termination, you must immediately cease using the Software and permanently delete or destroy all copies in your possession or control.
14. FEEDBACK
If you voluntarily provide suggestions, feature requests, ideas, comments, or bug reports regarding the Software, you grant Licensor a perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable, royalty-free, transferable license to use, modify, incorporate, publish, or otherwise exploit such feedback without compensation, attribution, or further permission.
15. GOVERNING LAW
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which Licensor is established, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This Agreement constitutes the complete and exclusive agreement between you and Licensor regarding the Software and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreements relating to its subject matter. If any provision of this Agreement is held unenforceable or invalid, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
By proceeding with installation, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
