End-User License Agreement (EULA) for CONSOFT License Center Add-On

This End-User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal contract between you ("Licensee" or "you") and CONSOFT CONSULTING SRL ("Publisher"). By installing or using the CONSOFT License Center Add-On for Archicad 28+ ("Software"), you agree to be bound by the terms below.

1. Definitions

"Software" means the CONSOFT License Center Add-On for Archicad 28+, including all updates, patches, documentation, images, and associated materials provided by Publisher or Developer.

"License" means the rights granted by Publisher to you under Section 2 of this Agreement.

"CONSOFT Add-Ons" means the Archicad add-ons published by Publisher, other than the Software, whose licenses the Software displays.

"Add-On License" means a license to use a CONSOFT Add-On, including a trial license, granted under that add-on's own End-User License Agreement.

"User ID" means the unique Graphisoft ID with which you are signed in to Archicad, used to link your Archicad installation to your Add-On Licenses.

"CONSOFT One" means Publisher's all-in-one service subscription; the purchase of a CONSOFT One subscription activates the Licensee's subscription to the Software at no additional charge.

"Linked Email" means the email address to which your Add-On Licenses were issued, once it has been linked to your User ID.

"Device ID" means an identifier derived from your computer's hardware characteristics (hardware fingerprint).

"Websites" means Publisher's websites at consoft.consulting and www.consoft.ro.

"Data Collection" means the automated gathering of identification and license-management data as described in Section 6.

"Publisher" and "Developer" means CONSOFT CONSULTING SRL with CUI RO16182863.

2. License Grant

The Software is provided free of charge. You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free, revocable license to:

  - Install the Software on any number of computers;
  - Use the Software solely to view the status of the Add-On Licenses issued to your Linked Email, to link your User ID to that email address, and to open the Websites' pages for trials, purchases, renewals, and device management, within your licensed copy of Archicad 28+ in accordance with its terms and this Agreement.

The Software has no license key, subscription, or device limit of its own. Publisher's servers record the computers on which it is used, as described in Section 6.

This License does not permit sub-licensing or distribution of the Software in binary or source form.

3. CONSOFT Add-Ons and Add-On Licenses

The Software does not itself grant, activate, extend, transfer, or revoke any Add-On License. Each CONSOFT Add-On and each Add-On License, including trial licenses, is governed exclusively by that add-on's own End-User License Agreement and by the terms under which the license was purchased or granted. Nothing in this Agreement modifies those terms.

The license information shown by the Software is provided for information only. It reflects Publisher's license records at the time of the request and may be incomplete, delayed, or temporarily unavailable. Where the Software and Publisher's license records differ, the license records prevail.

Trials, purchases, renewals, and device management take place on the Websites, not in the Software: the Software only opens the relevant page in your web browser. They are governed by the Websites' terms and conditions and privacy policy and by the End-User License Agreement of the add-on concerned.

By entering an email address in the Software, you confirm that it is your own email address, or that you are authorized by its holder (for example, your employer) to link it to your User ID and to use the Add-On Licenses issued to it. Linking an email address without such authorization is not permitted. An email address can be linked to only one User ID; changing an existing link is only possible upon written request sent to addons@consoft.consulting.

4. Restrictions

You may not, directly or indirectly:

  - Modify, translate, adapt, or otherwise create derivative works of the Software;
  - Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive source code;
  - Rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, or sublicense the Software;
  - Remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notices or labels on the Software;
  - Bypass, spoof, or alter hardware fingerprinting, request authentication, or license-checking mechanisms of the Software or of the CONSOFT Add-Ons;
  - Use the Software, or imitate its requests, to obtain information about licenses that were not issued to you or to your organization;
  - Send automated, excessive, or manipulated requests to Publisher's servers, or otherwise interfere with their operation.

5. Intellectual Property Ownership

All title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in and to the Software, including any copies, are retained by Publisher and Developer. The Software is protected by copyright laws and international treaties.

Archicad and Graphisoft ID are trademarks of Graphisoft SE. All other trademarks are the property of their respective owners. Your use of Archicad remains subject to your Archicad license terms.

6. Privacy and Data Collection

By installing the Software, you acknowledge and accept that each time the Software checks your licenses (when its window opens and when you click Refresh), it transmits the following information to Publisher's servers (consoft.consulting):

  - Your User ID (Graphisoft ID);
  - The Device ID of your computer;
  - The name of the Software;
  - Technical authentication data that verifies the request and contains no further personal information.

If your User ID is not yet linked to an email address, the Software asks for the email address your Add-On Licenses were issued to and transmits it once, to create the link. Publisher stores this email address together with your User ID. The Software does not ask for it again once the link exists.

As with any internet connection, Publisher's servers also receive the IP address from which the request is made and the technical identification sent by your system (user agent).

Publisher's servers record each computer on which the Software is used (Device ID, with the dates of first and last use) and keep a log of the requests (including their result, Device ID, IP address, and user agent) for license management, customer support, fraud prevention, and the security of Publisher's servers.

The server's reply contains your Linked Email and the list of your Add-On Licenses. The Software displays this information and does not store it on your computer, apart from diagnostic details of failed requests, which are written to Archicad's Session Report. The Software does not access, read, or transmit your Archicad projects or their contents.

The Open Dashboard, Start Trial, and Manage Devices buttons open www.consoft.ro in your web browser with your User ID in the page address, so that the website can link your User ID to the account you are signed in to there. The Buy and Renew buttons open Publisher's online shop. Data processed on the Websites is governed by the Websites' privacy policy.

Your User ID, Device ID, Linked Email, and IP address constitute personal data under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR). Publisher acts as the data controller and processes this data lawfully for the purposes of license verification, account linkage, customer support, fraud prevention, and the security of its servers. Data is not sold, and it is not shared with third parties other than the hosting provider of Publisher's servers acting on Publisher's behalf, or where required by law. Publisher's full privacy policy is available at consoft.consulting. You may exercise your rights under the GDPR, including access, rectification, and erasure, by writing to addons@consoft.consulting.

License usage patterns, link attempts, and Device ID information may also be reviewed for fraud prevention, misuse detection, and enforcement of these terms. Fraudulent or suspicious activity may result in suspension or termination of the License.

7. Support, Updates, and Availability

The Software is provided free of charge. Updates, bug fixes, feature improvements, and support are provided at Publisher's discretion and may be discontinued at any time without notice. Publisher makes no guarantee of a minimum support period for the Software.

The Software requires an internet connection, a Graphisoft ID sign-in in Archicad, and the availability of Publisher's servers. Publisher does not guarantee that its servers will be available at all times and may limit the number of requests accepted from a network address.

This Section applies only to the Software (CONSOFT License Center) itself. Support and updates for the CONSOFT Add-Ons are governed by their respective End-User License Agreements.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Software is provided "as is," with all faults and without warranty of any kind. Publisher and Developer disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including but not limited to:

  - Merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose;
  - Non-infringement of third-party rights;
  - Accuracy, reliability, completeness, or availability of any information or data, including the license information displayed by the Software.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event shall Publisher or Developer be liable for any:

  - Indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages;
  - Loss of profits, revenue, data, or business interruption;
  - Claims by any third party.

The total cumulative liability of Publisher and Developer under this Agreement shall not exceed fifty US dollars (USD 50), reflecting that the Software is provided free of charge.

Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including liability for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence, or any mandatory rights you may have as a consumer.

10. Termination

This Agreement is effective until terminated. Your rights under this Agreement will terminate automatically without notice if you fail to comply with any term. Upon termination you must:

  - Cease all use of the Software;
  - Delete or destroy all copies in your possession.

Termination of this Agreement does not by itself affect your Add-On Licenses, which are governed by their own End-User License Agreements.

Sections 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 11 will survive termination.

11. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

This Agreement is governed by the laws of Romania without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be finally settled by the competent courts at the Beneficiary's headquarters, under the rules of the International Chamber of Commerce. The arbitration shall be conducted in Romanian.

12. Third-Party Components

The Software includes the RapidJSON library, which is licensed under the MIT License. The copyright notice and license text are reproduced under "Third-Party Notices" at the end of this Agreement. Those notices apply only to the components they name.

13. Miscellaneous

  - Entire Agreement: This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between you and Publisher regarding the Software. It does not replace the End-User License Agreements of the CONSOFT Add-Ons.
  - Company-Wide Use: Installation across multiple devices within an organization is permitted without restriction, as the Software is provided free of charge.
  - Amendments: Publisher may update this Agreement at any time by posting a revised version online. Your continued use constitutes acceptance.
  - Severability: If any provision is held invalid, the remainder shall remain in full force.
  - No Waiver: Failure to enforce any provision shall not constitute a waiver.
