2. GRANT OF LICENSE.
GleamTech grants You the rights described in this Agreement provided that You comply with all the terms and conditions of this Agreement:
2.1. General License Grant. Except for termination for cause, GleamTech hereby grants to You a nonexclusive, nontransferable, perpetual license to use any versions of the Product that were accessible during the term of this Agreement. GleamTech grants use of the Product according to one of the license types below as identified in the Product title. Such use shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, which provisions shall survive any termination of this Agreement. The means by which You shall have access to the Product shall be in a manner and form substantially equivalent to the means by which access is provided under this Agreement.
2.2. LICENSE DESCRIPTIONS
2.2.1. Professional License. A Professional License allows using the product on one single domain which you control, and its subdomains which you control, without restrictions based on server, CPU, or core count. The license key is generated with a wildcard domain (e.g. *.contoso.com) and during runtime the HOST header is checked against this wildcard domain. The domain is not required to be public-facing, internal domains/hostnames (e.g. myserver) are also accepted. Note that developing or running locally (e.g. localhost or 127.0.0.1) is not restricted, the license domain is checked only when you deploy/publish. This license does not allow using the product in non-web applications (i.e. console or desktop apps) as it's bound to one single domain/hostname; consider Enterprise License (or higher) for that purpose.
2.2.2. Enterprise License. An Enterprise License grants enterprise-wide rights (including subsidiaries) but can also be purchased by an individual. Redistribution is restricted to bespoke, custom software, i.e. internal software that your organization uses. This license allows using the product on multiple domains and their subdomains which your organization owns. This license allows using the product in non-web applications (i.e. console or desktop apps).
Redistribute as part of bespoke/custom software:
Custom software (also known as bespoke software or tailor-made software) is software that is specially developed for some specific organization or other user. As such, it can be contrasted with the use of software packages developed for the mass market, such as commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software.
2.2.3. Distribution License. A Distribution License is the license you need if you wish to sell or distribute a product which contains this product. This license is very similar to the Enterprise License but does not restrict redistribution and sub-licensing to bespoke, custom software, it allows redistribution in turnkey/packaged/OEM software. This license allows using the product on multiple domains and their subdomains which your organization and your customers owns.
Redistribute in turnkey/packaged/OEM software:
A turnkey software (also spelled turn-key) is a type of software that is constructed so that it can be sold to any buyer as a completed product. A packaged software is a type of software that that has been developed to sell to many different types of customer, rather than being specially developed for one particular customer. OEM stands for "original equipment manufacturer" and OEM software is a phrase that refers to software that is sold to computer builders and hardware manufacturers (OEMs) in large quantities, for the purpose of bundling with computer hardware.
2.2.4. Source License. A Source License is very similar to the Distribution License, but in addition it provides full source code for the product.
2.3. Evaluation Versions and Temporary Licenses. When using an Evaluation Version or a Temporary License, You MAY NOT use the Product to produce any Derived Works with the exception of Works produced exclusively for the purpose of Product evaluation. If You use the Product in any other Derived Works, You must purchase the applicable license or You may be sued for collection and punitive damages. If You do not agree to these terms, then do not evaluate the Product and remove it from Your computer immediately. Temporary licenses are limited to three (3), thirty (30) day licenses per customer per twelve (12) month period.
2.4. Documentation. You may make any number of copies of the electronic and other documentation provided with the Product or downloaded from the GleamTech website, provided that all copies must be used only for internal purposes and may not be republished or distributed externally.
2.5. Disassembly. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or in any other way try to gain access to information regarding the construction of the Product(s).
2.6. Transfer. You may not rent, lease, lend, sub-license, sell, assign, transfer or pledge the Product in a standalone fashion or this Agreement, on a temporary or permanent basis, unless you first receive written permission from GleamTech.
2.7. Reservation of Rights. GleamTech reserves all rights not expressly granted herein.
