pursuant to the terms and conditions of this End User
License Agreement (EULA or License). PLEASE READ THESE TERMS
AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY. UPON ACCEPTANCE OF YOUR ORDER BY

1. Stockbox Photo® grants to the Client a limited
non-exclusive License to install the Licensed Software on a
single server, in one directory only (single
installation/single domain), and to use the Licensed
Software with respect to one set of data only. The data
generated by the Licensed Software may be stored or made
available on more than one computer or over a network, but
this License does not allow the Licensed Software to be run
on or be executed by more than one server on a network. To
allow the Licensed Software to be run on or be executed by
more than one server on a network, the Client must acquire
and dedicate a License for each separate computer or
directory which runs or executes the Licensed Software.
Stockbox Photo® also grants to the Client the right to
reproduce the manuals and other documents relating to the
installation and use of the Licensed Software (the
"Documentation") only as required for the Client's
authorized use of the Licensed Software. This License is
conditional upon the Client paying all applicable license
fees and respecting the terms hereof. Failure to do so will
void any rights granted under this license.
2. OWNERSHIP AND LIMITS TO USE
The Licensed Software and the Documentation remain at all
times the sole and exclusive property of Stockbox Photo
(TM). In order to protect the rights of Stockbox Photo®,
the Client undertakes to comply with the following:
(a) The Client shall not reproduce the Licensed Software
beyond the number of permitted copies, nor shall the Client
reproduce, distribute, transmit or provide access to the
Licensed Software to or for the benefit of a third party;
(b) The Client shall not sublicense, loan, sell, or
otherwise transfer all or part of the Licensed Software or
Documentation or any interest therein to or for the benefit
of a third party;
(c) The Client shall not remove, alter or obliterate any
copyright notices found in the Licensed Software or its
source code; including but not limited to the "Powered by
Stockbox Photo® Gallery Software" text and link. The
only exception being when an “unbranded" license has been
purchased. The unbranded license grants permission to the
client to remove any visual reference to Stockbox Photo
(TM), but it must leave the following metatag information
"Stockbox Photo® Gallery Software -
www.stockboxphoto.com - Do Not Remove This Line" or other
copyright notices in the source code intact; and
(d) The client shall not use the licensed software for any
illegal purposes or as part of any illegal activity. Any

addition the client assumes full responsibility for their
actions in this regard and Stockbox will remain harmless in
the case of actions brought on by law enforcement agencies.

any consultants, comply with all of the terms and conditions
of this License and shall be liable for any breaches
thereof.
3. MINIMUM CONFIGURATION
The Client is responsible for ensuring that the computer
systems onto which the Licensed Software is installed meet
the minimal requirements prescribed from time to time by
Stockbox Photo®.
4. TECHNICAL SUPPORT, UPDATES AND UPGRADES
For a period of one year (upgrades do not extend this
period) from the date of the original order for the Licensed
Software, Stockbox Photo® will make available to the
Client, free of charge, updates of the Licensed Software and
support via email and/or support forums provided by Stockbox
Photo®. After one year, continuation of both support and
updates will be contingent upon yearly payment of a flat
yearly "Support and Update Fee". Currently the annual
Support and Update fee is US$120.00 for a Standard or
Professional license and US$240 for an Enterprise license.
Stockbox Photo® reserves the right to change this fee
structure at its sole discretion. The Update and Support Fee
is payable in full prior to the expiration of the then
current support period and the amount payable will be the
fee in effect at the time of renewal. If you fail to pay the
Update and Support Fee, you may still use the Licensed
Software as stipulated in this License, but support will be
billed at Stockbox Photo®'s hourly rate then in effect
for consulting services and updates will be subject to a new
license at the then prevailing price. Stockbox Photo®
reserves the right to charge an "upgrade license" fee for
new versions of the software that include new or improved
functionality. Should support be required as a result of the
Licensed Software ceasing to function as a result of a
modification, adaptation or addition to the Licensed
Software made by the Client or on its behalf, Stockbox Photo
(TM) will invoice the Client for all time spent to identify
such malfunction and to carry out any remedial work at
Stockbox Photo®'s hourly rate then in effect for
consulting services. In order to troubleshoot issues with a
Client's installation, Stockbox Photo® will require FTP
(File Transfer Protocol) , gallery admin and database admin
login details. If the Client is unable or unwilling to
provide Stockbox Photo® with the required access then
Stockbox Photo® may not be able to provide support as
described in this agreement. Please note that although we
take the security of your personal information seriously, we
will not be held liable for any loss or misuse of any
information supplied to Stockbox Photo® (either through
our help desk or otherwise provided).
