This end-user license agreement ('Agreement') is a legal contract between
you, as either an individual or as a single business entity, and Dominion
Web Design.
READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE DOWNLOADING,
INSTALLING OR USING DWmail ('Software').
THE SOFTWARE IS COPYRIGHTED AND IT IS LICENSED TO YOU UNDER THIS AGREEMENT,
NOT SOLD TO YOU. BY DOWNLOADING THE SOFTWARE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE
READ THIS AGREEMENT, THAT YOU UNDERSTAND IT, AND THAT YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE
TO
BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS. IF YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF
THIS AGREEMENT, YOU NOT DOWNLOAD, PURCHASE OR USE THIS SOFTWARE. THIS
AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND DOMINION WEB DESIGN
CONCERNING THE SOFTWARE, AND THIS AGREEMENT SUPERSEDES AND REPLACES ANY
PRIOR PROPOSAL, REPRESENTATION, OR UNDERSTANDING YOU MAY HAVE HAD RELATING
TO
THE SOFTWARE.
1) License
a) Grant of License. Dominion Web Design hereby grants to you, and you accept,
a limited, nonexclusive license to use the Software in machine-readable,
object code form only or in the software language PHP, and the user manuals
accompanying the Software ('Documentation'), only authorized in this Agreement.
For purposes of this Agreement, the Software includes any updates, enhancements,
modifications, revisions, or additions to the Software made by Dominion Web
Design and made available to end-users through Dominion Web Design's web site.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dominion Web Design shall be under no obligation
to provide any updates, enhancements, modifications, revisions, or additions
to
the Software.
b) Scope of Use. You may use one copy of the Software on a single computer
owned, leased, or otherwise controlled by you, at a single time. If you have
multiple license keys for the Software, you may make and use as many copies
of the Software as you have license keys. For purposes of this Agreement,
"
use" of the software means loading the Software into the temporary or
permanent memory of a computer. Installation of the Software on a network
server solely for distribution to other computers is not "use" of
the Software,
and is permitted, as long as you have a license key for each computer to which
the Software is distributed. The Software may not be used on or distributed
to
a greater number of computers than you have license keys. If you will use or
distribute the Software to multiple users, you must ensure that the number
of
users does not exceed the number of license keys you have obtained, or you
will
be in breach of this Agreement. An additional copy of the software may be used
for each license key solely to be used for Personal Digital Assistant (PDA)
usage. An example PDA template is supplied with the Software.
c) Copies and Modifications. You may not reverse engineer, decompile,
disassemble, or otherwise translate the Software or any license keys you have
obtained that are intentionally prohibited from modification. The Software
source code, excluding V-editor source code, may be modified at the license
holder's own risk.
You may make one copy of the Software, the Documentation, and any license
keys
that you have obtained, solely for backup or archival purposes.
All Dominion Web copyright notices within source code and design templates
must
remain visible. Source code copyright notices must remain unchanged. You may
remove the link back to the Dominion Web Design website from the publicly
displayed notice. At the minimum the public facing copyright text must say

keys shall include any copyright or other proprietary notices that were included
on such materials when you first received them. Except as authorized in this
Section, no copies of the Software, Documentation, or license keys, or any
portions thereof, may be made by you or any person under your authority or
control.
d) Assignment of Rights. You will not sublicense, lease, rent, or lend your
rights in the Software, Documentation, or license keys, as granted by this
Agreement, with any third party. However, you may permanently assign your rights
in the Software, Documentation, and license keys, provided that the party to
whom

a
party who has not first accepted the terms of this Agreement will be invalid.
