IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT (“LICENSE AGREEMENT”) CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SOFTWARE (AS DEFINED BELOW). TELIUM IS WILLING TO LICENSE THE SOFTWARE TO YOU AS THE INDIVIDUAL, THE COMPANY, OR THE LEGAL ENTITY THAT WILL BE UTILIZING THE SOFTWARE (REFERENCED BELOW AS “YOU” OR “YOUR”) ONLY ON THE CONDITION THAT YOU ACCEPT ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT. THIS IS A LEGAL AND ENFORCEABLE CONTRACT BETWEEN YOU AND TELIUM. BY DOWNLOADING AND/OR USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU AGREE TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, MAKE NO FURTHER USE OF THE SOFTWARE.
1. License
The software (including all its accompanying features and services), and software documentation, (including any product packaging) (the “Documentation”), that accompanies this License Agreement (collectively the “Software”) is the property of Telium (“Telium”), and is protected by copyright law. Although Telium continues to own the Software, after Your acceptance of this License Agreement You will have certain rights to upgrade the Software during the Maintenance Agreement Period.
If you have purchased a permanent license, the “Maintenance Agreement Period” shall begin on either (a) the date of Your invoice, or (b) the maintenance start date listed in your license file, whichever comes first. The Maintenance Agreement Period shall last for the period of time set out in the purchase agreement and designated within the license activation file. Renewals of the Maintenance Agreement will be available in accordance with Telium’s policy posted on the Telium web site. The initial annual maintenance agreement extends the maintenance period from 90 days to 1 year, while subsequent maintenance agreements extend the maintenance period in one year increments. Once a maintenance period has expired, a maintenance agreement can no longer be added to the associated license numbers.
If you have purchased a permanent license, Telium will issue a license upon receipt of all payments due to Telium. Telium may at its discretion issue a temporary license until all payments have been received.
If you have purchased a subscription license, then a maintenance agreement is included with your subscription and remains in effect so long as your subscription is active. Your license start and end dates are determine based on the plan you select (monthly or annual), and your license is considered active between these dates.
This license governs any releases, revisions, updates or enhancements to the Software that Telium may make available to You. Except as may be modified by the Documentation, and subject to Telium’s right to terminate for Your breach pursuant to this document, Your rights and obligations under this License Agreement with respect to the use of this Software are as follows.
Telium will issue a license upon receipt of all payments due to Telium. Telium may at its discretion issue a temporary license until all payments have been received.
You may:
A. use two activated copies of the Software on two Devices, one copy per device (creating a single high availability pair). If a greater number of copies and/or number of Devices is specified within the applicable transaction documentation from Telium, You may use the Software in accordance with such specifications;
B. use the software, if activated using Fingerprint activation, only on the device upon which the activation was performed. If you chose Cloud, or USB Dongle, or Volume License Server activation then you may move the software to a different device of your choosing, or modify the device as you see fit.
C. permanently transfer all of Your rights in the Software, granted under this License Agreement to another person or entity, provided that You transfer the physical device upon which you activated the software (in the case of Hardware Fingerprint activation);
D. use the Software in accordance with any additional permitted uses which may be set forth below.
Partial transfer of Your rights under this License Agreement shall not be permitted.
You may not, nor may You permit any other person to:
E. partially transfer Your rights under this License Agreement, nor may You transfer the product activation key of the Software which You acquired, without the associated installed software.
F. sublicense, rent or lease any portion of the Software without the explicitly permission of Telium;
G. other than to the extent and in the circumstances permitted by law, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify, translate, make any attempt to discover the source code of the Software or create derivative works from the Software;
H. use the Software in any manner that is not permitted pursuant to this License Agreement.
I. use a single license file on any machine (physical or virtual) other than the one on which the license applies. Each license file you deploy must contain a unique license number which is tied to each (physical or virtual) machine.
J. place a license request file or license file on any software image, template, or virtual machine used to generate new virtual machines or software deployments, without the express written permission of Telium.
K. use the Free Edition of HAfs in a commercial setting for any period longer than 90 days.
You must:
L. generate a license request from, and install a unique license file onto, each machine (virtual or physical) for which you have purchased a license.
M. remove all commercial edition (Flex/Unlimited/OEM) and trial edition software upon expiry of your license.
2. Software and Content Updates
A. You shall have the right to receive new features and versions of the Software as Telium, in its sole discretion, makes such features and versions available during Your Maintenance Agreement Period. Telium continually strives to improve the usability and performance of its products and services. In order to optimize the Software, and to provide You with the most current version of the Software. Additionally, Telium may modify the terms and conditions that apply to Your use of the Software to reflect such updates and You agree to such updated terms.
B. Software updates may be applied to a computer already authorized to run the HAfs program. Updates may only be applied while the software is covered by a Maintenance Agreement.
3. Product Installation & Activation
A. There may be technological measures in this Software that are designed to prevent unlicensed or illegal use of the Software. You agree that Telium may use these measures to protect Telium against software piracy. This Software may contain enforcement technology that limits the ability to install and uninstall the Software on a Device to not more than a finite number of times for a finite number of Devices. This License Agreement and the Software containing enforcement technology may require activation as further set out in the Documentation. If so, the Software will only operate with a limited number of features prior to Software activation by You. During activation, You may be required to provide Your unique activation code in the form of a file to be submitted over the Internet to verify the authenticity of the Software and the unique identification of your device. If You do not complete the activation, the Software will operate in a limited functionality mode known as the “Free Edition”. You may contact Telium Customer Support using the information provided by Telium during activation, or as set out below.
B. If You alter the activation license file sent to you, then the HAfs software may operate in “Free Edition” mode.
C. If you chose Hardware Fingerprint activation, then the Software license is locked to the hardware platform (physical or virtual) on which the software is activated. You must ensure the Software is installed on the final hardware before requesting a license. A license which uses Hardware Fingerprint activation is not transferable between devices.
D. If the underlying hardware changes and your license uses Hardware Fingerprint activation, then your license is invalidated. Telium may at its discretion issue a replacement license but is under no obligation to do so. Telium will only consider issuing a replacement license while the Software is covered by an active Maintenance Agreement.
E. If you install the Software on a virtualized device you are responsible for ensuring the virtualized hardware does not change. If you install the Software on a cloud based virtual device then you remain responsible for ensuring the consistency of the virtualized hardware. In the event that virtualized hardware presented by the cloud service provider changes beyond Your control, Telium may at its discretion issue a replacement license but is under no obligation to do so. Telium will only consider issuing a replacement license while the Software is covered by an active Maintenance Agreement. Telium is not responsible for the actions or services of a SaaS / PaaS provider.
F. Licenses must be activated within 3 years of purchase or they are automatically invalidated and can no longer be activated. If the purchaser has not activated a license within 1 year after purchase, then it may be technically impossible to activate (if the licensing software has become incompatible). In either case refunds are not available if the purchaser has not promptly activated their license following purchase.
4. Technical Support
In connection with Your use of the Software You may choose to access certain technical support features. Any Technical Support shall be provided in Telium’s sole discretion without any guarantee or warranty of any kind other than any guarantees applicable under consumer laws in Your jurisdiction, including under Competition and Consumer Laws for Australian Consumers, which cannot be excluded or limited in any way. It is solely Your responsibility to complete a backup of all Your existing data, software and programs before receiving any Technical Support. In the course of providing the Technical Support, Telium may determine that the technical issue is beyond the scope of the Technical Support. Telium reserves the right to refuse, suspend or terminate any of the Technical Support in its sole discretion. Technical support is only available to customers of the “Commercial Flex” and “Commercial Unlimited” editions of the software, and only while the Maintenance Agreement Period is in effect.
5. Liability to Business Customers
If You are a Consumer, the following provisions of this Section 5 do not apply to You except to the extent that under laws applicable in Your jurisdiction certain consumer provisions apply to Your use of the Software regardless of the fact that such use is for business, trade or professional purposes.

8. General
This License Agreement will be governed by the laws of Canada. Nothing in this License Agreement will diminish any rights You may have under existing consumer protection legislation or other applicable laws in Your jurisdiction that may not be waived by contract. Telium may terminate this License Agreement if You breach any term contained in this License Agreement (other than a trivial or inconsequential breach) and, if such termination occurs, You must cease use of and destroy all copies of the Software and the Documentation. The disclaimers of warranties and damages and limitations on liability, including those set out in Sections 5 and 6, shall survive and continue to apply after termination. This License Agreement may only be modified by the Documentation or by a written document that has been signed by both You and Telium.
Telium has no means to disable/deactivate an operating HAfs installation using fingerprint or VLS activation. For this reason once a license is activated using fingerprint or VLS the product cannot be moved to a different Device. Moving activated software to a new Device requires the purchase of a new license. Telium may at its sole discretion choose to issue a new license at no charge if it can confirm that the original Device has failed. Changes to the hardware of a Device may trigger deactivation. Telium may at its sole discretion choose to issue a new license at no charge if it deems the hardware change to be minor.
Payments for software licenses, maintenance agreements, and services must be received in advance of Telium issuing any licenses, or providing any services, and all payment to Telium are non-refundable. Maintenance agreements can only be purchased (i.e. extended) while a maintenance agreement is active for a particular Device. Once a maintenance agreement has expired, a new maintenance agreement can only be purchased as part of a new license.
Telium is granted the right to use the End-User’s name and logo on Telium’s website solely for the purpose of indicating their commercial relationship. This permission applies only if the End-User is a business entity. The Buyer retains the right to rescind this permission at any time by providing written notice to Telium.
You agree that this license agreement may be updated from time to time, without prior notice, and any such changes will be effective as soon as the updated license is posted on the Telium web site. In the event of discrepancies between the license presented on the Telium website and the one included in the product distribution package, the license on the Telium website shall prevail.
9. Telium Customer Service
Should You have any questions concerning this License Agreement, or if You desire to contact Telium for any reason, please write to customer support at the address specified in the Contact section of the Telium website.
