1. Definitions

2. License Required — No Use Without Purchase

The Software is licensed, not sold. No rights to use the Software are granted except to a Licensee who has purchased a valid License. Any installation, access, or use of the Software without a valid, paid License is strictly prohibited and constitutes both a breach of this Agreement and an infringement of the Licensor's copyright and other intellectual property rights.

3. Grant of License

Subject to your full and continuing compliance with this Agreement and your payment of all applicable license fees, the Licensor grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the Software for your own internal or personal purposes, on the number of devices and for the term specified in your purchase.

4. Restrictions

Except to the extent this Agreement expressly permits, or applicable law expressly permits notwithstanding this restriction, you shall not, and shall not permit any third party to:

  1. Redistribute — copy, distribute, publish, upload, transmit, share, or otherwise make the Software available to any third party, whether or not for charge;
  2. Sell or commercialize — sell, resell, rent, lease, lend, sublicense, assign, host, offer as a service (SaaS), or otherwise commercially exploit the Software or access to it;
  3. Copy — reproduce the Software except for a single backup copy for your own archival use by an Authorized Use Licensee;
  4. Modify or derive — modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the Software;
  5. Reverse engineer — decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code, algorithms, or underlying structure of the Software, except to the limited extent such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law despite this limitation;
  6. Circumvent — remove, disable, or circumvent any license, activation, copy-protection, or access-control mechanism, or any copyright, trademark, or proprietary notice;
  7. Transfer — transfer, share, or make available your License, license key, or credentials to any other person or entity.

5. Ownership and Intellectual Property

The Software is owned by the Licensor and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws and treaties. The Licensor reserves all rights not expressly granted to you in this Agreement. No title to or ownership of the Software, or of any intellectual property rights therein, is transferred to you under this Agreement.

6. Term and Termination

This Agreement is effective until terminated. It will terminate automatically and without notice if you breach any term of this Agreement, including any use without a valid License. The Licensor may also terminate this Agreement for any material breach. Upon termination, you must immediately cease all use of the Software and destroy all copies in your possession or control. Sections 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 survive termination.

7. No Warranty — "As Is"

The Software is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including without limitation any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. The Licensor does not warrant that the Software will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that any data, prices, valuations, projections, scores, or other financial information it displays are accurate, complete, or suitable for any purpose.

8. Market Data and Third-Party Sources

The Software retrieves market and financial data — including prices, quotations, historical series, exchange rates, and company information — from third-party sources. The Licensor does not originate, own, or control that data.

9. Not Financial Advice

The Software is a personal information and organization tool. It does not provide investment, tax, legal, or financial advice, and nothing it displays constitutes a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security or asset. You are solely responsible for your own financial decisions. Consult a qualified professional before acting on any information.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Licensor be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, or investment value, arising out of or related to the Software or this Agreement, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. The Licensor's total aggregate liability under this Agreement shall not exceed the amount you actually paid for the License.
