Section 1 - Object of the Agreement; Licensed Software
The object of this Agreement is the making available of the software specified in Licensee’s order to which this Agreement refers (hereinafter referred to as “Order”) for Licensee’s use through an internet connection. Such software together with any copies, revisions, modifications, updates, upgrades or enhancements thereto, as may be made available from time to time by CMW Lab to Licensee under this Agreement, shall hereinafter be referred to as “Licensed Software”. Together with granting access to Licensed Software CMW Lab intends to make available to Licensee certain virtual storage space for Licensee to store data (hereinafter referred to as “Licensee Content”) in connection with Licensee’s use of the Licensed Software (hereinafter referred to as “Storage Space”). The making available of Licensed Software and of Storage Space in accordance with this Agreement shall hereinafter be referred to as “Service(s)”.
Section 2 – Making Available of Licensed Software
(1) Subject to an average of 99.0 % network availability during one (1) calendar year as defined in sub-section (2) below (hereinafter referred to as “Annual Uptime Percentage”), CMW Lab shall make available to Licensee the Licensed Software on a server operated by CMW Lab or a third party authorized by CMW Lab to host the Licensed Software (hereinafter referred to as “Server”). CMW Lab may at any time amend, modify, update or upgrade the Licensed Software, provided the implementation of such new version is reasonable and takes due account of Licensee’s interests.
(2) The Annual Uptime Percentage is calculated by subtracting from 100% the percentage of 5 minute periods during one calendar year in which Licensee’s running instances have no external connectivity and Licensee is unable to launch replacement instances. If in a given calendar year Licensee has been using Licensed Software for less than 365 days, the Annual Uptime Percentage shall be calculated pro rata temporis. Annual Uptime Percentage measurements exclude downtime resulting from one of the following events:
(3) CMW Lab does not owe to Licensee the installation or maintenance of an internet connection from Licensee’s computer to the exchange node operated and designated by CMW Lab or its contractors. Subject to reasonable prior notice to Licensee, CMW Lab or its contractors may change such exchange node at any time.
Section 3 – License Terms; Subscriptions

Notwithstanding the above, Licensee shall accept the EULA during the registration process prior to utilizing the Licensed Software. A copy of the EULA is available at http://www.CMW Lab.com/support/request/ .

CMW Lab will take reasonable effort to notify Licensee of the upcoming subscription expiration but it is recommended that Licensee either ensures regular manual subscription renewals or sets up an automatic renewal sequence through Licensee’s account at www.CMW Lab.com.
(3) CMW Lab employs a model according to which all product subscriptions on a single customer account must share a common expiration date. This is made through aligning the end dates of all the subscriptions at the time of a license purchase. When Licensee purchases new product licenses in addition to the existing ones, CMW Lab will re-calculate the shopping cart in such a way that the existing subscriptions get the corresponding alignment increment payments. The mechanism is described in more detail in CMW Lab’s knowledge base at: kb.CMW Lab.com

During that period the Licensee Data can be accessed in read-only mode and downloaded only by the administrator of Licensee’s account within the product. If Licensee does not activate a new subscription within the grace period, the Licensee Data will become inaccessible and will not be retained for further use even if Licensee activates a new subscription thereafter.
(5) Data entered into the system during the trial period of any Service is retained for 14 days after the trial period runs out. During that period Licensee Data generated during the trial period cannot be accessed and Licensee won’t have access to the product interface.
