The Software Product also includes any software updates, add-on components, web services and/or supplements that Schneider Electric may provide to You or make available to You after the date You obtain Your initial copy of the Software Product and after Your acceptance of this EULA, to the extent that such items are not accompanied by a separate license agreement or terms of use, in which case such separate license agreement shall prevail.
As used in this EULA, “Schneider Electric” or the “Licensor” shall mean that company of the Schneider Electric Group which is registered in the country where You have issued Your purchase order (including but not limited to orders for purchase, license and/or trial or any expression of Your intent to do the same, hereinafter collectively referred to as “Purchase Order”) of the Software Product; Schneider Electric Group companies are listed under the drop-list of countries on the corporate web site of Schneider Electric Group.
The terms and conditions of this EULA will not be affected and shall remain fully enforceable between Schneider Electric and You in case You have issued Your Purchase Order for the Software Product to be delivered to You as a mobile application through any mobile applications platform or store proprietary to Schneider Electric or to any third-party officially appointed or recognised by Schneider Electric to commercialize the Software Product as a mobile application.
1. GRANT OF LICENSE
Schneider Electric grants to You a non-exclusive non-transferable, limited license right to use the Software Product subject to all terms and conditions of this EULA, Your Purchase Order and Documentation related to said Software Product.
This EULA describes Your general rights to install, activate and use the Software Product, to the exclusion of the terms and conditions relating to the purchase (if applicable) by You of the Software Product which terms and conditions shall be referred to under Your Purchase Order or be contained in a separate agreement between You and Schneider Electric or its sales representative or between You and the third-party supplying the Software Product with a third-party product.
Depending upon the Software Product’s reference and its related description that is available from Schneider Electric’s website, the license right set forth under this EULA is granted to You as a perpetual license or for a limited period of time. The period of Your license can either be found in the About Box, Purchase Order, or in Documentation related to the Software Product.
Depending upon the Software Product’s reference and its related description that is available from Schneider Electric’s website, the license rights granted under this EULA may be limited to a trial period in the number of days indicated by the Software Product upon its installation, or in the About Box, Purchase Order, or related Documentation. During said trial period, You may use the Software Product for the purpose of evaluating whether to activate or not the license to use the Software Product under this EULA.
Upon expiry of the trial period or, unless in case of a perpetual license, of the limited period of time for which the license was granted to You, the Software Product might automatically be de-installed and/or rendered unusable (with or without prior warning) and Your license to the Software Product will automatically and immediately terminate, unless You request Schneider Electric to grant You, and Schneider Electric accepts, to grant You a further license under this EULA or a separate agreement and You actually activate the license right granted to You hereunder in the manner described during the set-up sequence of the Software Product, and You pay to Schneider Electric the corresponding applicable fees (if any).
You acknowledge that if You need to activate the Software Product through the use of internet or telephone, toll charges may apply.
If technological measures are designed to prevent unlicensed or illegal use of the Software Product, You agree that Schneider Electric may use those measures and You agree to comply with any requirements regarding such technological measures.
Unless You have acquired a Corporate License as expressly defined in this EULA, floating, concurrent or shared use of the Software Product is not permitted and Your use of the Software Product must be licensed under this EULA as a Single User License or a Multiple User License.
The Single User License applies when a label affixed on the Software Product’s media itself, in its About Box, the Purchase Order or Documentation or elsewhere state "Single User License". A Single User License can only be installed and used on a single personal computer at any given time and is prohibited from being installed and used on a network or any other multi-station computer system that allows simultaneous use by several users.
The Multiple User License applies when a label affixed on the Software Product’s media itself, in its About Box, the Purchase Order or Documentation or elsewhere state ”Multiple User License". A Multiple User License allows concurrent and unrestricted number of installations of the corresponding Software Product on several personal computers or similar devices, on a network or any other multi-station computer system, but a Multiple User License restricts the number of users to the number defined for the corresponding purchased and registered Software Product. Where You would use a Multiple User License via a network or any other multi-station computer system, it shall be Your responsibility to put in place such means as necessary to guarantee that all restrictions set forth in this EULA are followed.
You shall be responsible for maintaining secure access to the Software Products as permitted under this Agreement. You shall not: (i) transmit or share identification and/or password codes to persons other than to authorized users for whom such codes were generated; (ii) permit authorized users to share identification and/or password codes with others; (iii) permit the identification and/or password codes to be cached in proxy servers and accessed by individuals who are not authorized users; (iv) permit access to the Software Products through a single identification and/or password code being made available to multiple users on a network; or (vi) attempt or permit any person without valid identification and/or password codes to attempt to access the Software Products. You shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Schneider Electric, its officers, directors, employees, agents and other representatives to and against any and all liability, loss, costs, damages, reasonable attorney fees and other expenses which Schneider Electric may sustain or incur arising out of or in connection with any third party claim related to any breach of our obligations under this Section.

9. WARRANTIES
9.1 Schneider Electric warrants that for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of its delivery to You by Schneider Electric or its authorised reseller (or any other warranty period depending upon the Software Product’s reference and its related description available from Schneider Electric website), (i) the Software Product will perform substantially in accordance with its 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 either return the fees paid (if any) for the Software Product, or 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 or its authorised reseller within the above mentioned warranty period, and (ii) the defect does not fall under the exclusions set under section 9.2 below.
9.2 Schneider Electric’s warranty shall be excluded if the Software Product, its medium or License Key has been altered or fails to perform in any way, as the result of any accident, abuse, omission or abnormal 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 9.1 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.
9.3 To the full extent permitted by law (on both federal and state level, when applicable) applicable in any country where You will install, copy, run or otherwise use the Software Product, 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, 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.
9.4 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.
9.5 The Software Product is not fault-tolerant and is not designed, manufactured or intended for use or resale as control equipment in hazardous environments requiring fail-safe performance, such as in the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, air traffic control, direct life support machines, or weapons systems, in which the failure of the Software Product could lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe physical or environmental damage. Accordingly, Schneider Electric and its suppliers specifically disclaim any express or implied warranty of fitness for such hazardous, high-risk, or life-threatening activities. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Schneider Electric from any third-party claim arising out of Your use of the Software Product in connection with any hazardous, high-risk, or life-threatening activities.
10. LIABILITIES
You expressly acknowledge and accept that use of the Software Product is at Your sole risk and that the entire risk as to satisfactory quality, performance, accuracy and effort is with You as licensee. 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.
In no event shall Schneider Electric be liable for any indirect, intangible, incidental, punitive 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, business interruption, loss of data or for any other pecuniary or non pecuniary loss or damage, arising out of or in connection with the use, inability to use or misuse of the Software Product, even if Schneider Electric has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Schneider Electric’s aggregate liability under this EULA shall in no case exceed the total amount paid by You to acquire the Software Product which caused the damage and/or, as the case may be, to be granted the license to use the same.
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.
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 person (other than Schneider Electric, its authorised resellers or their respective employees, agents or subcontractors) 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 above limitations or exclusions of liability shall apply only to the extent permitted by law applicable in any country (on either federal or state level, when applicable) where You will install, copy, run or otherwise use the Software Product.
The limitations or exclusions of warranties and liability contained in this EULA 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).
11. THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE
The Software Product may embed or be provided to You with third-party software(s), in unmodified or modified forms.
By accepting this EULA, You are also accepting the terms and conditions of the software licenses from any third-party owning the intellectual property rights on said third-party software(s), and any use You will do of any such third-party software(s) being part of the Software Product is subject to the terms of those third-party licenses.
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 what so ever in relation to code subject to such alternative licenses.
Schneider Electric cannot and does not grant to You any license to any third party’s intellectual property rights held by a third party in respect of which You may need to hold a license in order to be able lawfully to use the Software Product for the purposes contemplated by You, including so as to be able lawfully to use the Software Product in such specific process, set-up or other context and in such specific combination with other software or devices as may be intended by You. You must at Your own expense acquire and maintain any such licenses from such third parties, and Schneider Electric cannot be held liable if a third party raises a claim for infringement of such third party's patent rights or other intellectual property rights. If You do not acquire and maintain such third party licenses as mentioned and if this somehow results in a third party raising a claim against Schneider Electric, You shall indemnify Schneider Electric against any such third party claim whereby the specific limitations of Schneider Electric’s warranty and liability defined in Section 9 and Section 10 of this EULA shall apply.
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.
In case the Software Product includes access to a software development kit (“SDK”) which allows the development of any interface between third-party software(s) and the Software Product, Schneider Electric shall not be responsible for any development performed by You through the use of SDK, as well as Schneider Electric shall have no responsibility to provide You any support in relation thereto and shall not be liable for Your use of SDK or any damages it may cause to You or any third-party.
If Your use of SDK somehow results in a third party raising a claim against Schneider Electric, You shall indemnify Schneider Electric against any such third party claim whereby the specific limitations of Schneider Electric’s warranty and liability defined in Section 9 and Section 10 of this EULA shall apply.
12. AUDIT
You agree to make all applicable records available for review by Schneider Electric during Your normal business hours so as to permit Schneider Electric (upon reasonable written notice to You) to verify Your compliance with the terms and conditions of this EULA. Further, You agree that upon the request of Schneider Electric or Schneider Electric's authorized representative, You will promptly document and certify in writing to Schneider Electric that Your and Your employees' use of the Software Product complies with the terms and conditions of this EULA.
Schneider Electric may (upon reasonable written notice) inspect Your use of the Software Product during Your normal business hours to ensure Your compliance with this EULA. If the results of any such review or inspection indicate Your unlicensed or non-compliant use of the Software Product or the underpayment by You of applicable fees (if any) contractually due and payable to Schneider Electric, You shall: (i) immediately pay sufficient fees to cover Your use of the Software Product, or such amounts of fees remaining due to Schneider Electric and (ii) reimburse Schneider Electric for the cost of such review or inspection.
13. EXPORT CONTROL
The export of products, software, technology or information may be subject to control or restriction by applicable laws or regulations on the control of export, notably the United States Export Administration Act and the regulations there under, and the European Union Regulation 428/2009 applicable to dual use and cryptographic products and technologies. You are solely responsible for determining the existence and application of any such law or regulation to any proposed export of the Software Product by You or Your representatives and for performing any declaration or obtaining any required authorisation in relation therewith. You agree not to export the Software Product from any country in violation of any applicable legal or regulatory obligations or restrictions on that export. In the event the aforementioned legal or regulatory obligations or restrictions are violated by You or any of Your representatives in relation with the export of the Software Product, You shall indemnify and hold Schneider Electric and its authorized resellers harmless from any claims and compensate the same against any damages which any third party (including but not limited to governmental and/or international authorities and/or organizations) will claim against Schneider Electric and/or its authorized resellers as the result of any such violation by You or Your representative(s).
14. ASSIGNMENT
Your rights or obligations under this EULA may not be sold, sub-licensed, rented, assigned, delegated, transferred or otherwise conveyed by You or Your representatives without Schneider Electric’s prior express written consent. Licensor may assign this license to any company within the Schneider Electric Group of companies or to any company it may acquire control of or merge with.
15. DURATION AND TERMINATION
15.1 The license right granted to You under this EULA shall come into effect as of the date of Your acceptance of the terms hereof and shall remain effective unless such license right expires or terminates when (i) such license right was granted to You for a limited period of time in accordance with section 2 and such limited time period expires, or (ii) such license right was granted to You under a trial period in accordance with section 2 and You do not further activate it upon expiry of said trial period as per section 2, or (iii) this EULA is terminated by either Schneider Electric or You with immediate effect if, respectively, You or Schneider Electric fail to comply with any of its obligations under this EULA.
15.2 Upon expiration or termination of the license right granted to You hereunder, You undertake to immediately discontinue use of the Software Product and You must (i) if the Software Product has been provided to You as a physical copy, return the Software Product and related copies and data, including without limitation those stored on Your computer hard disks or servers, including all accompanying printed materials along with their containers to the place from which You obtained the Software Product, and (ii) if the Software Product has been provided to You as a download, delete or expunge the Software Product, inclusive all related files and any other electronic material, from Your computer, hard disks, servers or other device containing it.

16. CONFIDENTIALITY
16.1 The Software Product, including the documentation, the terms and pricing under this Agreement, and any other information that may be marked as confidential is the confidential and proprietary information of Schneider Electric (“Confidential Information”). You will hold the Confidential Information in strict confidence during the term of this Agreement and for a period of five (5) years thereafter. You will take reasonable steps to ensure that Your employees and agents also comply with the confidentiality obligations of this Section. You acknowledge that confidential aspects of the Software Product (including but not limited to any source code) are trade secrets of Schneider Electric, the disclosure of which would cause substantial harm to Schneider Electric that could not be remedied by the payment of damages alone. Accordingly, Schneider Electric will be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief for any breach of this Section.
16.2 You understand and agree that Schneider Electric may use technical information that You provide while receiving technical/customer support services and that the Software Product may collect and use technical data and related information. Schneider Electric may use such information for its own business purposes, including product support and development, but agrees not to use such information in any form that might identify You.
17. MISCELLANEOUS
17.1 This EULA, including its Schedule, constitutes the entire agreement between You and Schneider Electric in relation to Your right to use the Software Product and replaces any previous agreement or understanding, whether oral, electronic or written, in relation with the same subject matter.
Documentation forms an integral part of the license granted under this EULA. In case of a discrepancy between the terms of this EULA and the provisions of the Documentation, the terms of this EULA shall prevail.
Should they differ, the terms of the printed version of this EULA, which may be supplied with the Software Product package, shall prevail over those that may be read on a computer screen.
17.2 Any change to the terms of this EULA shall only be valid and applicable to You if made in writing and signed by the respective authorized officer of each of Schneider Electric and You.
17.3 Should any of the provisions of this EULA be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable by a competent jurisdiction, You and Schneider Electric shall take all reasonable steps in order to modify such provision to render it valid and enforceable, bearing in mind their original intentions, and such provision as modified shall be fully enforced by You and Schneider Electric; all other provisions shall remain valid and unaffected by such declared invalidity, illegality or non-enforceability.
17.4 No failure or delay on the part of either You or Schneider Electric in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.
17.5 Headings in this EULA are just for ease of reference and will not affect its interpretation.
17.6 Words expressed in the singular include the plural and vice versa.
17.7 Section 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 16 of this EULA shall survive termination of this EULA or expiration of the license right granted to You under this EULA in accordance with section 15.1. Furthermore, provisions that by their nature are intended to survive termination or expiration of this EULA and the license right granted to You hereunder, shall survive such termination or expiration.
18. APPLICABLE LAW & DISPUTES
This EULA shall be exclusively governed by the laws of the country (on both federal and state level, when applicable) where Licensor has its registered office or principal place of business, to the exclusion of said country’s conflict of law rules.
For specific jurisdictions, as stated in the appendices to this EULA, different regulations/terms may apply. All the terms of this EULA that are not amended by the terms and conditions defined in said appendices, shall apply between Schneider Electric and You in such jurisdictions.
Any dispute between You and Schneider Electric arising out of or in connection with this EULA and/or the Software Product, whether based on contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability, statute or otherwise, which cannot be amicably settled, shall in all cases be finally settled according to the law governing this EULA as defined above, by the courts having jurisdiction in the city where Licensor has its registered office or principal place of business, to the exclusion of any other jurisdiction whatsoever, including in case of plurality of defendants, injunction-like or emergency proceedings and appeal in warranty.
You acknowledge and accept that Schneider Electric will be irreparably damaged (and damages at law may be an inadequate remedy) if You breach any provision of this EULA and such provision is not specifically enforced. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by You of this EULA, Schneider Electric shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights or remedies, to (a) an injunction or other injunctive relief restraining such breach, without being required to show any actual damage or to post an injunction or other bond; or (b) a decree for specific performance of the applicable provision of this Agreement; or (c) both to the extent permitted by applicable law in the country where Licensor has its registered office or principal place of business and/or, as relevant in the context, where You will install, copy, run or otherwise use the Software Product, on either federal or state level when applicable.
