License Agreement & Terms of Sale By Richard Rost In a NutshellI'm not a lawyer, but my lawyer made me include a page with everything below. However, here are my Terms of Sale in simple language:
Now for the legal mumbo jumbo. By placing your order, you agree to these terms (so you should read them)... Standard Software License AgreementPlease be sure to read the following carefully. The following is a legal agreement (Agreement), for the license of specified software, video tutorials, and handbooks (Software collectively) produced and owned by Richard Rost, Computer Learning Zone LLC, Amicron, Amicron Computing and 599cd.com (hereafter known as Amicron). By using our software, you (either an individual, company, organization, corporation, or a single entity) consent to be bound by and become a party to this Agreement. If you do not agree to all the terms of this agreement, return this software immediately. BY USING THIS SOFTWARE, YOU AGREE TO BECOME BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE, PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE OUR SOFTWARE. PURCHASE, INSTALLATION, AND/OR USE OF OUR SOFTWARE INDICATES YOUR EXPRESS AGREEMENT TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, Amicron grants you a license to use one copy of the Software subject to the license restrictions set forth below. You may not transfer your license to use (give or sell) the Software to any other party or person. Your license is non-transferable. In other words, our Software is sold on a PER-USER basis. Your copy is for YOU alone. You may not share this software or give or sell it to someone else when you're finished with it. This license is effective until terminated. You may terminate it at any time by destroying the Software together with all copies in any form. It will also terminate if you fail to comply with any term or condition of this Agreement. You agree upon such termination to destroy the Software together with all copies in any form. The Software is protected by United States copyright laws and international treaty provisions. Amicron retains all rights, title and interest in and to the Software, including all copyrights, patents, trade secret rights, trademarks and other intellectual property rights therein. Your possession, installation, or use of the Software does not transfer to you any title to the intellectual property in the Software, and you will not acquire any rights to the Software except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. You may not sell, lease, license, rent, loan or otherwise transfer, with or without consideration, the Software. You may not permit third parties to benefit from the use or functionality of the Software via a timesharing, service bureau or other arrangement. You may not transfer any of the rights granted to you under this Agreement. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software, except to the extent the foregoing restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law. You may not modify, or create derivative works based upon, the Software in whole or in part. You may not copy the Software or Documentation except as expressly permitted in this Agreement. You may not remove any notices or labels on the Software. All rights not expressly set forth hereunder are reserved by Amicron. Courses are only guaranteed to work with Microsoft Windows 10 or later. Courses on Microsoft Office are designed to work with the 64-bit version only. If you have the 32-bit version installed, some features may be unavailable to you. Click here for more information. Courses for Microsoft Office may be recorded in any version from 2007 or later. For the vast majority of users, you will not be able to tell a difference. Please click here for more information on this. We are not responsible for minor differences in the software that may have been added to subsequent versions after the recording of our tutorials. The Software utilizes Microsoft Windows Media Player and Microsoft Internet Explorer, both of which come with Windows. If the user does not have Windows Media Player or Internet Explorer on his computer, or if these programs are not functioning properly, the User is responsible for obtaining an updated versions of these programs directly from Microsoft. As of the time of the writing of this Agreement, Windows Media Player and Internet Explorer are free downloads from microsoft.com. Amicron does not foresee any changes in Microsoft's policy to provide these programs for free, but we will not be held liable should Microsoft change their policy in the future, or make these programs unavailable to the public. Our software also requires an audio adapter and speakers for you to hear our instructor. Our software does not run on the Apple or other "non-PC" computers, however you may still be able to watch our lessons online. Our videos have been tested and also work with Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and the Android operating system, however compatibility with these platforms is not guaranteed. You should try our free lessons to make sure they work on your computer before purchasing any courses. The entire liability of Amicron and your exclusive remedy shall be, at Amicron's sole discretion, the repair or replacement of the Software. These remedies are not available if the failure of the Software or media is the result of misuse, abuse or a failure to follow the operating instructions in the accompanying written materials, or if the media upon which our Software was shipped is damaged by the User. The Customer has 10 days from the date on which the order was shipped to report any media damaged in shipping. Except for the limited warranty set forth herein, the software is provided as is. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Amicron disclaims all warranties, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement with respect to the software and the accompanying documentation. You assume responsibility for selecting the software to achieve your intended results, and for the installation of, use of, and results obtained from the software. Without limiting the foregoing provisions, Amicron makes no warranty that the software will be error-free or free from interruptions or other failures or that the software will meet your requirements. Some states and jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties, so the above limitation may not apply to you. The foregoing provisions shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, whether in tort, contract, or otherwise, shall Amicron or its suppliers be liable to you or to any other person for any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages of any character including, without limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or for any and all other damages or losses. In no event will Amicron be liable for any damages in excess of the list price Amicron charges for a license to the software, even if Amicron has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some states and jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so this limitation and exclusion may not apply to you. The foregoing provisions shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. There are NO REFUNDS. We do this only to prevent people from frivolously ordering many courses, copying them, and then asking for their money back. If you're not sure whether or not you're going to like our product, we recommend you purchase one of our beginner courses for $1 to try us out, or sample some of our free lessons online. I recommend Access Beginner Level 1. Once you submit your order, there are no cancellations. Customer should test one of our free sample lessons on their computer before purchasing our product. If the demo lessons play correctly on the customer's computer, then our full product should work as well. If the demo lessons do not play properly on the customer's computer, then they should seek technical support before purchasing our product. Amicron will not be liable for technical support should our product not work on the customer's computer and they did not try our demo lessons first. Refunds will not be given under these circumstances. We make no claims or guarantees for delivery dates of our software or download availability. Times given for delivery dates are estimates generated by our web site. Times given are estimates only. We will not guarantee a delivery date. Customer may not request a refund for products not received by any specified dates. Additionally, courses purchased for download may not be available immediately, as some orders may been to be processed manually. This process is usually automatic, but for special orders may take up to 2 business days, depending on the nature of the order and the number of orders we currently have to process. Please note that orders paid for with a check or money order are held for 5 to 7 business days to wait for check clearance. Any checks returned for non-payment will incur a $35 fee. Some of our video tutorials or handbooks may be listed on our order page as "under development." Customers may pre-order these items, and may receive a discount for doing so. This will place the customer on a "waiting list" for the item(s) in question. For the customer's convenience, they will receive the item as soon as its available, and will also be automatically added to the waiting list for the next item in the series, if applicable. The customer will be emailed a notification at least 24 hours before any additional items are added to their account, giving plenty of opportunity to cancel. Customer may be removed from the waiting list at any time by simply contacting customer service. Customer may NOT broadcast our software over a closed-circuit television system or other broadcast television system. Customer may not show our software lessons to a group of people (employees, students, etc.) as in a classroom or seminar. Customer may not profit from our Software in any way, which includes leasing, renting, or showing our lessons to others (employees, customers, students, etc.). If you are interested in purchasing multiple licenses of our tutorials for your students or employees, please consult our Volume Purchasing page. You do have permission to show any of our publically available videos on YouTube in a classroom setting, provided that no fee is charged by you, no alterations are made to the original video, and the videos are shown in their entirety with advertising intact.
