End User License Agreement for Faber Digital Services (EULA)

By using the software (“Product Software”) that is embedded in and enables the Faber Product (“Product”) or by using the Faber Digital Services, the user agrees to the terms of this End User License Agreement (“EULA”) between the user and Faber SpA, Viale XIII Luglio, 160, 60044 Fabriano AN, Italy (“Faber”).

BY SUBSCRIBING TO A FABER DIGITAL SERVICE (INCLUDING INSTALLING AND ACTIVATING A FABER APPLICATION FOR A MOBILE DEVICE), THE USER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE OR SHE IS AUTHORISED TO ENTER INTO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE AND, IF THE USER IS ACCEPTING ON BEHALF OF HIS OR HER EMPLOYER OR ANOTHER ENTITY, THE USER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT HE OR SHE HAS THE LEGAL RIGHT TO BIND SUCH ENTITY AND TO ACCEPT ALL OF THE TERMS OF THESE TERMS OF SERVICE RELATING TO THE USE OF THE FABER DIGITAL SERVICES BY THE END USER. IF THE USER DOES NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE OR IS NOT AUTHORISED TO BIND THE END USER TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, HE OR SHE MUST NOT CLICK ON THE “I AGREE”, “ACCEPT” OR SIMILAR BUTTON OR MUST CLICK ON THE “I DO NOT AGREE” BUTTON OR CLOSE THE WINDOW TO STOP CREATING AN ACCOUNT WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE FABER DIGITAL SERVICES.

This EULA governs the access to and use of the Product Software, remote management of the Product Software, and updates thereto. It also regulates, by analogy, the access to and use of any Faber App downloaded on a Connected Product or on an Accessory Device, such as a mobile device, for use together with the Product (e.g. from the respective Apple or Google online application shops) and updates to the Faber App. The user’s use of the Faber Digital Service is governed by the Terms of Service.

The purchase of any Product enabled for Faber Digital Services is governed by the terms and conditions agreed by the user with the seller at the time of purchase of the Faber material, or, if the user is an Authorised Distributor, by the distribution agreement in force with regard to the underlying commercial terms.

The terms used in this EULA, if not defined in the EULA itself, shall have the meaning given to them in the Terms of Service for Faber Digital Services.

  1. Licence

Subject to the terms of this EULA, Faber grants the user a limited, non-exclusive license (without the right to sublicense) to run the Product Software exclusively on the Product and use it in conjunction with the relevant official Faber App installed on a Connected Device owned or controlled by the user. The license is granted solely for personal, non-commercial purposes.

The Client grants Faber, for the period of validity of the Terms of Service for the Faber Digital Service and for the purposes indicated in the Terms of Service, the right to electronically connect to the Product Software and also grants Authorised Users and Faber full access to read, use and update the Product Software, the control software on the Product and derived device’s data.

  1. Restrictions

Except as specifically provided in this EULA, the grant of license in this EULA does not permit the End User or any third party (directly or indirectly, in whole or in part) to: (a) reverse engineer or attempt to derive the source code or create derivative works from the Product Software, or any part thereof, except as expressly permitted by local law and, in such case, only upon written notice to Faber; (b) use the Product Software in a capacity greater than that identified in a Purchase Order and in the Documentation; (c) sublicense, distribute or pledge the Product Software; (d) access, use or copy any part of the Product software to develop, promote or support, directly or indirectly, any product or service that competes with the Product Software; (e) rent, lease or commercially share or otherwise use the Product Software for any third-party purposes; (f) remove any identification, patent, trademark, copyright or other notices from the Product Software; (g) use any name, trademark or designation of Faber, or any of its affiliates or licensors or their respective products or services, except where explicitly permitted in this document or by Faber in writing; (h) interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Product Software; (i) attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Product Software or related systems or networks, including access to the Faber Digital Services.

Faber reserves the right to block, without incurring any liability, any Product Software that violates this section or if it is investigating suspected misconduct.

  1. Software updates

Faber may from time to time develop patches, bug fixes, updates, upgrades and other modifications to improve the performance of the Product Software and related services.

If the Product in question is enabled to connect to Faber Digital Services, such changes may be made without prior notice or request for consent to keep the Service and/or the Product at the highest level of performance. The user consents to such automatic updates for the duration of the Faber Digital Service Term in relation to the user’s Product and to the user’s Auxiliary/Device(s). If the user does not consent to such automatic updates, the only possibility is to interrupt the use of the Faber Digital Services.

The user further agrees, if and when notified of such possibility or interactively requested to do so, to promptly install the latest versions or patches/updates of the Product Software, and/or the software of any Auxiliary Device and/or, if applicable, any client software provided. Faber excludes all warranties and liability of any kind for the use of any software that has not been updated in accordance with this section 3.

  1. Duration and termination

This EULA and the license granted herein are effective from the date on which the user first uses the Product Software or the Product and remain valid and effective for the duration of the applicable Faber Digital Service, unless this EULA is terminated early pursuant to this section. Faber may terminate this EULA at any time if the user fails to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination of this EULA, the license granted below to connect to the Faber Digital Services shall lapse and the user shall cease all use of the relevant Product Software and any Faber App that connects to it.

This EULA is automatically terminated in the event of a valid withdrawal from any underlying purchase contract relating to the Product and shall lapse, without prior notice from Faber or another party from whom the purchase was made, when the withdrawal of the contract becomes effective.
