Legal
End User Licence Agreement
Important — read carefully
This End User Licence Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you (either an individual or a single legal entity, "you") and the Licensor, governing your use of the EditPad Aurora software, including all files, data, images, fonts, documentation, and any updates or supplements provided to you (collectively, the "Software").
By installing, activating, copying, or otherwise using the Software, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.
1. Grant of licence
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement and payment of the applicable fee, the Licensor grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual licence to install and use the Software as follows:
1.1 Permitted installations. You may install and activate the Software on up to three (3) computers that you own or control, provided the Software is used by you alone and not concurrently by multiple individuals.
1.2 Personal and commercial use. You may use the Software for both personal and commercial purposes.
1.3 Ownership of your output. You own the audio you create using the Software. The Licensor asserts no ownership interest, royalty claim, or licence over any audio file you process or produce using the Software. You may sell, distribute, licence, stream, broadcast, and otherwise commercially exploit that audio freely and without attribution or payment to the Licensor.
1.4 Perpetual licence. This licence does not expire and does not require an ongoing subscription. The Licensor may offer future major versions as separate paid products; this licence covers the version purchased and any updates the Licensor makes available for it at no charge.
2. Restrictions
You may not:
2.1 Copy, distribute, sell, rent, lease, lend, sublicense, or otherwise make the Software available to any third party, except as expressly permitted in this Agreement.
2.2 Share, publish, or distribute your licence key or activation credentials.
2.3 Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code, algorithms, structure, or organisation of the Software, except to the limited extent such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this restriction.
2.4 Modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works based on the Software.
2.5 Remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices, labels, or marks on or in the Software.
2.6 Circumvent, disable, or interfere with any licensing, activation, security, or anti-piracy mechanism in the Software.
2.7 Use the Software in any manner that violates applicable law.
3. Reference audio and your content
3.1 Local processing. The Software operates entirely on your computer. Audio files you load into the Software are processed locally and are not uploaded, transmitted, stored, or accessed by the Licensor at any time.
3.2 Reference files. The Software analyses a "reference" audio file in order to derive processing settings applied to your own source audio. This analysis is technical and local. The Software does not copy, reproduce, sample, extract, redistribute, or embed any portion of the reference recording into your output. No audio content from the reference file appears in the resulting file.
3.3 Your responsibility. You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the necessary rights to use any audio file you load into the Software, including any reference recording, and for your use of the resulting output. Nothing in this Agreement grants you any rights in third-party recordings, compositions, or other content.
4. Intellectual property
4.1 The Software is licensed, not sold. The Licensor retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including all copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, algorithms, signal-processing methods, visual assets, and documentation.
4.2 All rights not expressly granted in this Agreement are reserved by the Licensor.
4.3 "EditPad Aurora", the EditPad Aurora logo, and associated marks are trademarks of the Licensor.
5. Activation and licence validation
5.1 The Software requires a valid licence key and may require activation. Activation may involve transmitting a licence key and a non-identifying hardware identifier to the Licensor or its licensing provider solely to validate the licence and enforce installation limits.
5.2 You may deactivate an installation in order to transfer your licence to a replacement computer, subject to the limits in Section 1.1.
5.3 The Licensor may suspend or revoke a licence obtained fraudulently, obtained through a chargeback or reversed payment, or used in breach of this Agreement.
6. Updates and support
6.1 The Licensor may, but is not obliged to, provide updates, bug fixes, or enhancements. Any such updates are governed by this Agreement unless accompanied by different terms.
6.2 The Licensor may provide support at its discretion. Nothing in this Agreement obliges the Licensor to provide support, updates, or continued availability of the Software.
7. No warranty
7.1 THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including without limitation any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, or non-infringement.
7.2 The Licensor does not warrant that the Software will meet your requirements, that its operation will be uninterrupted or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that any particular audio result will be achieved.
7.3 Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties. In those jurisdictions, the above exclusions apply to the maximum extent permitted by law, and you may have additional statutory rights that this Agreement does not affect.
8. Limitation of liability
8.1 TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE LICENSOR'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SOFTWARE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE.
8.2 IN NO EVENT SHALL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, including without limitation loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of data, loss or corruption of audio files or projects, business interruption, or loss of goodwill, however caused and on any theory of liability, whether or not the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
8.3 Back up your work. You are responsible for maintaining backups of your audio files and projects. The Licensor is not liable for any loss or corruption of your files.
8.4 Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
9. Term and termination
9.1 This Agreement takes effect when you first install or use the Software and continues until terminated.
9.2 This Agreement terminates automatically if you materially breach any of its terms.
9.3 On termination, you must cease all use of the Software and remove all installations. Sections 3, 4, 7, 8, 10, and 11 survive termination.
10. Privacy
The Licensor's handling of personal information is described in the EditPad Aurora Privacy Policy, which forms part of this Agreement. The Software processes your audio locally and does not transmit audio content to the Licensor.
11. General
11.1 Governing law. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. The courts of Ontario shall have jurisdiction, save that consumers may also bring proceedings in the courts of their country of residence where mandatory local law so provides.
11.2 Consumer rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits any non-waivable statutory rights you have as a consumer under the law of your country of residence.
11.3 Purchases and refunds. Purchases are processed by our merchant of record, whose terms of sale, invoicing, tax handling, and refund and cancellation policy apply to the transaction.
11.4 Assignment. You may not assign or transfer this Agreement. The Licensor may assign this Agreement in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganisation, or sale of assets.
11.5 Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions remain in full force.
11.6 Entire agreement. This Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy and the merchant of record's terms of sale, constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Licensor concerning the Software.
11.7 Changes. The Licensor may modify this Agreement for future versions or future purchasers. Material changes will not apply retroactively to a licence you have already purchased.
