Pica8 reserves all rights not expressly granted in this EULA. All Software is licensed, not sold, and any reference to “purchase” or “sale” or similar terms in this EULA or otherwise are references to the purchase and sale of the licensed rights and not of the Software.

Unless otherwise provided in a written agreement between you and Pica8, this license is for your internal use only and does not include any right to sublicense, resell, distribute or, except as provided in the next sentence, otherwise provide the Software or access to it to third parties. The License may be exercised on your behalf by your contractors, service providers and affiliates that are authorized to use the Software or the Device for your benefit. You are responsible for their compliance with this EULA.

  • access or use the Software in any manner that would cause the Software to become subject to any flexible software license that would require the Software to be disclosed or distributed in source code form, be licensed for the purpose of making derivative works, or be redistributable at no charge.
  1. Term and Termination.
  • Term of EULA. This EULA becomes effective on the date you accept this EULA (including by click-through action) or download, install, copy or otherwise use the Software and will continue in effect until the end of the license term, as follows: (i) if you purchased a perpetual license, the end of the license term is the date you last access or use the Software on the Device (unless the license is transferred to another Device as provided in Section 10 of this EULA), unless this EULA and your license are earlier terminated as provided in subsection (c) of this Section; and (ii) if you purchased a subscription license, the end of the license term is the date of expiration of your final subscription term, unless this EULA and your subscription are earlier terminated as provided in subsection (c) of this Section.
  • Subscription Terms. The initial term of a subscription shall be as specified in the applicable order form. Unless otherwise specified in the order form, each subscription will automatically renew for successive additional one (1)-year periods, unless (i) you give Pica8 notice of non-renewal before the renewal date or (ii) Pica8 gives you notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days before the renewal date. Pica8 will notify you reasonably in advance of the renewal date if the fees will increase. The new fees will apply for the upcoming renewal term unless you notify Pica8 in writing, before the renewal date, that you do not accept the fee changes, in which case your subscription will terminate at the end of the then-current subscription term.
  • Suspension; Termination for Breach.
    • If you fail to pay license fees within five (5) business days after their due date or you are otherwise in material breach of this EULA, then Pica8 may, in its sole discretion, suspend your license grant for the affected Software, in addition to any other remedies Pica8 may have at law or equity.
    • Either you or Pica8 may terminate this EULA upon written notice to the other party if the other party breaches any other term of this EULA and, if such breach is capable of cure, fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof; provided, however, that the cure period for payment default is five (5) business days. For the avoidance of doubt, violations of Section 4 are breaches that are not capable of cure.
    • If you have a subscription license, Pica8 may also terminate this EULA if you become the subject of a voluntary or involuntary petition in bankruptcy or any proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or composition for the benefit of creditors, if that petition or proceeding is not dismissed with prejudice within sixty (60) days after filing, or if you cease to do business.

If this EULA is terminated for your material breach and you have a subscription license, any amounts owed to Pica8 become immediately due and payable. If you terminate this EULA due to Pica8’s material breach, Pica8 will provide you a Pro-Rata Refund. All provisions of this EULA that reasonably should survive termination shall so survive.
  1. Fees; Taxes.

To the extent permitted by law, orders are non-cancellable and, except as expressly provided in this EULA, fees paid for a subscription term are non-refundable. You have no right of set-off or deduction except as expressly agreed by Pica8 in writing. For Software licenses or services purchased on a subscription basis, Pica8 reserves the right to increase the applicable fees payable for any renewal subscription term. All payments shall be made in United States dollars.
  • Charge Authorization. If you pay with a credit card or other online payment method, on the applicable payment date Pica8 will charge the payment method you provide. If Pica8 cannot charge your payment method for any reason (such as card expiration or insufficient funds), (i) you will remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and (ii) if you update your payment information, Pica8 will attempt to charge the payment method again. In accordance with applicable law, Pica8 may update payment method information notified to Pica8 by you or your financial institution. You authorize Pica8 to charge and update your payment method as described in this clause.
  • Late Payments. If Pica8 cannot charge your payment method for any reason (such as card expiration or insufficient funds), or if you are an invoiced customer and Pica8 has not received payment within five (5) days after the due date, (i) interest shall accrue on past due amounts at the rate of 1.5% per month or the highest rate of interest allowed by law, whichever is less; and (ii) you agree to reimburse Pica8 for reasonable costs of collection, including but not limited to reasonable collection fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses.

You are responsible for payment of all sales, use, value-added (VAT), ad valorem, excise or other governmental taxes, duties, levies, tariffs, or transactional charges (other than taxes on Pica8’s net income) and any related interest and/or penalties.

  • To a Transferee. You may assign your rights and obligations under this EULA and the license grant to the Software granted to you by this EULA to a person or entity that acquires the Device on which the Software runs.

  1. Limited Warranty.
  • Limited Warranty. Pica8 warrants that (i) it has used commercially reasonable means to protect against the introduction of viruses by the Software to your computer system; and (ii) to Pica8’s knowledge and except as disclosed in the Documentation or this EULA, the Software contains no time bombs or other codes or instructions that may be used by Pica8 to access, modify, delete or disable your computer systems.
  • Exclusive Remedy. Your exclusive remedy for any breach of the foregoing warranties shall be, at Pica8’s election: (A) replacement of the affected Software or (B) a Pro-Rata Refund for the affected Software. If Pica8 provides a Pro-Rata Refund, your license to the affected Software will immediately terminate and Section 5(d) of this EULA will apply.
  • Exclusions. The foregoing warranties do not apply (i) if the Software was not downloaded from Pica8’s official web site; (ii) if the Software has been modified by anyone other than Pica8 or its authorized representative; (iii) if the Software or the Device has not been installed, operated, repaired, or maintained in accordance with the Documentation or has been subjected to abnormal physical or electrical stress, abnormal environmental conditions, misuse, negligence, or accident; (iv) to any Software licensed for, trial, evaluation, testing or demonstration purposes; (v) to any Software for which an Approved Source does not receive a license fee; and (vi) to any Software supplied by any party that is not an Approved Source.
  • Disclaimer. Except for the foregoing warranties, the Software is provided “as is” and “with all faults” and Pica8 disclaims all other warranties, whether oral or written, express or implied, including the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose and any warranty of operability, quality, non-infringement or absence of defects. Pica8 does not warrant that the Software will meet your requirements, that its operation will be secure, uninterrupted or error-free, or that all errors will be corrected. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of certain warranties, so this limitation may not apply to you if you are a consumer.
  1. Indemnification.

Pica8 will defend any third-party claim against you alleging that your use of the Software in accordance with the Documentation and this EULA infringes any copyright, trade secret or U.S. or Canadian patent (an “Infringement Claim”), and will indemnify you against the final judgment (including damages, fines, penalties, interest, fines, fees, penalties, and attorneys’ and fees) entered by a court of competent jurisdiction or any settlement in connection with such Infringement Claim, provided that you: (i) promptly notify Pica8 in writing of the Infringement Claim, (ii) allow Pica8 sole control of the defense of the Infringement Claim and any subsequent appeal and (iii) fully cooperate with Pica8 in the defense. You may retain your own legal representation at your own expense. Pica8 does not have any obligation to reimburse you for attorneys’ fees and costs, whether incurred before or after Pica8’s receipt of notification of the Infringement Claim.

In the event an injunction is obtained against your use of the Software by reason of an Infringement Claim or Pica8 believes the Software is likely to become the subject of an Infringement Claim, Pica8 may, at its own expense and at its election: (A) procure for you the right to continue to use the Software or (B) replace or modify it so that it becomes non-infringing, with materially equivalent functionality. If Pica8 determines that neither of the above options are available on terms that are commercially reasonable for Pica8, then Pica8 may terminate your license to the Software and give you a Pro-Rata Refund. If Pica8 provides a Pro-Rata Refund, your license to the affected Software will immediately terminate and Section 5(d) of this EULA will apply.

The foregoing obligations do not apply to the extent the alleged infringement is caused or alleged to be caused by (i) modification of the Software other than by Pica8 or its authorized representative; (ii) combination of the Software with any software, products, services or materials not contemplated by the Documentation or approved by Pica8 in writing, if the infringement would not have occurred but for such combination; (iii) use of the Software other than as specified in the Documentation or this EULA; (iv) Software not downloaded from Pica8’s official web site; (v) Software licensed for beta, trial, evaluation, testing or demonstration purposes; (vi) Software for which an Approved Source does not receive a license fee; and (vii) Software supplied by any party that is not an Approved Source.

  1. Limitation of Liability.
  • In no event shall Pica8 be liable for cost of cover or for any incidental, special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, for loss or corruption of data or interruption or loss of business, or for loss of revenues, profits, goodwill or anticipated sales or savings. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of incidental or consequential damages so this limitation may not apply to you.

(b)   Required Assistance and Customer Activities. 

i.        Customer shall provide reasonable assistance to Pica8 in determining and resolving Errors that Customer reports.

Customer acknowledges that Pica8 may not be able to determine Errors or provide Customer with an Error Correction without such remote access. 

iii.      Customer shall respond in a timely manner to requests for information by a Pica8 Support Representative. Any information Customer provides Pica8 that Customer designates as confidential will be used only to resolve reported Errors and will not be disclosed to anyone other than Pica8 personnel involved in resolving the Error.

iv.     Error resolution may require that Customer install Releases for the Software or upgrade to the most recent version of the Support Platform. Pica8 reserves the right to charge additional fees for assisting Customer in resolving Errors or installing Releases where Pica8 support is necessitated or complicated by Customer’s failure to install Releases. (For example, Pica8 may charge fees for Release support if Customer falls behind 1 major version and Customer requests to upgrade from v2 to v4.)

(d)   Migration of Customizations and/or Modifications. Any Customer’s customization, modifications and/or additions to the Software are excluded from Pica8 Standard Maintenance and Support. If Customer desires to purchase services in connection with the migration of customizations, modifications or additions to Releases, Pica8 may provide such services to Customer for a fee pursuant to a separate professional services engagement.

6. Maintenance and Support Fees

(a)   Fees.  Fees for the initial Maintenance Term are set out in Customer’s order with Pica8 or Pica8’s authorized reseller or OEM. Fees for renewal Maintenance Terms are based on Pica8’s then-current prices. Pica8 reserves the right to increase the applicable fees payable for Maintenance and Support for any renewal Maintenance Term. To the extent permitted by law, orders are non-cancellable and, except as otherwise expressly provided in these Support Terms, fees paid for Maintenance and Support are non-refundable. Customer has no right of set-off or deduction except as expressly agreed by Pica8 in writing. All payments shall be made in United States dollars.

(b)   Charge Authorization. If Customer pays with a credit card or other online payment method, on the applicable payment date Pica8 will charge the payment method Customer provides. If Pica8 cannot charge Customer’s payment method for any reason (such as card expiration or insufficient funds), (i) Customer will remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and (ii) if Customer updates its payment information, Pica8 will attempt to charge the payment method again. In accordance with applicable law, Pica8 may update payment method information notified to Pica8 by Customer or its financial institution. Customer authorizes Pica8 to charge and update Customer’s payment method as described in this clause.

(c)   Late Payments. If Pica8 cannot charge Customer’s payment method for any reason (such as card expiration or insufficient funds), or if Customer is an invoiced customer and Pica8 has not received payment within five (5) days after the due date, (i) interest shall accrue on past due amounts at the rate of 1.5% per month or the highest rate of interest allowed by law, whichever is less; and (ii) Customer agrees to reimburse Pica8 for reasonable costs of collection, including but not limited to reasonable collection fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses.

(d)   Taxes.

If Pica8 has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible, Pica8 will invoice Customer for such Taxes and Customer shall pay them unless Customer provides Pica8 with a valid tax exemption certificate.

7. Term, Renewal and Termination

(a)   Maintenance Term. The initial Maintenance Term shall begin and end on the dates set forth in the applicable order form or purchase order. Upon expiration of the initial Maintenance Term and each renewal Maintenance Term, Customer’s subscription to Maintenance and Support shall automatically renew and a new Maintenance Term for another twelve (12)-month period shall begin; provided that (i) Pica8 still offers Maintenance and Support for the Software under the terms of these Support Terms at the time of renewal; (ii) Customer has not given Pica8 written notice that Customer declines to renew Maintenance and Support at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the expiring Maintenance Term; and (iii) Customer pays the then-current list price for the Maintenance and Support fee for the Renewal Term.

The failure to renew Maintenance shall not affect Customer’s licenses to the Software. 

(b)   Termination of Maintenance and Support.

i.        Either party may terminate Maintenance and Support upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other party of a material breach by the other party of its obligations set forth in these Support Terms (including but limited to a failure to pay), if the breach is not cured within that thirty (30) day period. If Pica8 terminates Maintenance as a result of Customer’s uncured breach, Pica8 will retain all Maintenance and Support fees paid. If Customer terminates Maintenance and Support as a result of Pica8’s uncured breach, Pica8’s sole and exclusive obligation will be to refund that portion of the Maintenance and Support fee actually paid by Customer that is proportional to the percentage of the Maintenance Term remaining at the time termination is effective. 

ii.       Pica8 may terminate Maintenance and Support for particular Software with reasonable prior written notice if Pica8 no longer supports such Software. In the event Pica8 so terminates the Maintenance and Support, Pica8’s sole and exclusive obligation will be to refund that portion of the Maintenance and Support fee actually paid by Customer that is proportional to the percentage of the Maintenance Term for the unsupported Software remaining at the time termination is effective. 

iii.      The termination of Maintenance and Support shall not affect Customer’s licenses to the Software. All provisions of these Support Terms that reasonably should survive termination shall so survive. 

(c)   Reinstatement of Maintenance Services. If Customer has terminated or elected not to renew Maintenance and Support, Customer can elect to reinstate Maintenance and Support if Pica8 still offers Maintenance and Support for the applicable Software and if Customer pays a fee equal to (i) the Maintenance and Support fees for the period during which Customer did not receive Maintenance and Support and (ii) the Maintenance and Support fee for the current Maintenance Term.

8. Limitation of Liability

(a)   In no event shall Pica8 be liable for cost of cover or for any incidental, special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, for loss or corruption of data or interruption or loss of business, or for loss of revenues, profits, goodwill or anticipated sales or savings. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of incidental or consequential damages so this limitation may not apply. 

(b)   In no event shall Pica8’s aggregate liability to Customer exceed the fees Customer paid for Maintenance and Support during the 12-month period immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

(c)   The foregoing limitations of liability applies whether the claims are in warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), infringement, or otherwise, and even if Pica8 has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Nothing in these Support Terms limits or excludes any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law. This limitation of liability is cumulative and not per incident.

9. General

(a)   Warranty. Pica8 warrants that Maintenance and Support will be performed in a professional manner. Pica8’s entire liability and Customer’s exclusive remedy for breach of warranty will be, at Pica8’s option, to (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to reperform the non-conforming services in a manner that conforms to the warranty, or (ii) refund to Customer the fees paid by Customer to Pica8 for the nonconforming Maintenance and Support services. 

The foregoing warranty as set forth herein is in lieu of all other warranties, whether expressed, implied or statutory, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. 

(b)   Force Majeure.  Except for the payment of monies due, a party shall be excused from failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Support Terms due to natural disasters, power outages, denial of service attacks, weather, strikes, riots, war, governmental action or other reasons beyond its reasonable control.

The United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods will not apply. Customer and Pica8 irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Santa Clara County, California.

(e)   Remedies; Waiver; Severability. Except as expressly set forth in these Support Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Support Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Support Terms or otherwise. The failure by either party to enforce any provision of these Support Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision.

If any provision of these Support Terms is held to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible, and the other provisions will remain in full force and effect.

(f)    Independent Contractors. Customer and Pica8 are independent contractors and do not have any relationship of partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, or agency. Neither party has the power to bind the other or incur obligations on the other’s behalf.
