APPENDIX D: DELL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
APPENDIX D: DELL SOFTWARE LICENSE
AGREEMENT
This is a legal agreement between you, the user, and Dell Products L.P or Dell
Global B.V. (“Dell”). This agreement covers all software that is distributed with
the Dell product, for which there is no separate license agreement between you
and the manufacturer or owner of the software (collectively the “Software”). This
agreement is not for the sale of Software or any other intellectual property. All title
and intellectual property rights in and to Software is owned by the manufacturer
or owner of the Software. All rights not expressly granted under this agreement are
reserved by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. By opening or breaking the
seal on the Software packet(s), installing or downloading the Software, or using the
Software that has been preloaded or is embedded in your product, you agree to be
bound by the terms of this agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, promptly
return all Software items (disks, written materials, and packaging) and delete any
preloaded or embedded Software.
You may use one copy of the Software on only one computer at a time. If you
have multiple licenses for the Software, you may use as many copies at any time
as you have licenses. “Use” means loading the Software in temporary memory or
permanent storage on the computer. Installation on a network server solely for
distribution to other computers is not “use” if (but only if) you have a separate
license for each computer to which the Software is distributed. You must ensure
that the number of persons using the Software installed on a network server does
not exceed the number of licenses that you have. If the number of users of Software
installed on a network server will exceed the number of licenses, you must purchase
additional licenses until the number of licenses equals the number of users before
allowing additional users to use the Software. If you are a commercial customer of
Dell or a Dell affiliate, you hereby grant Dell, or an agent selected by Dell, the right
to perform an audit of your use of the Software during normal business hours, you
agree to cooperate with Dell in such audit, and you agree to provide Dell with all
records reasonably related to your use of the Software. The audit will be limited to
verification of your compliance with the terms of this agreement.
The Software is protected by United States copyright laws and international
treaties. You may make one copy of the Software solely for backup or archival
purposes or transfer it to a single hard disk provided you keep the original solely
for backup or archival purposes. You may not rent or lease the Software or copy the
written materials accompanying the Software, but you may transfer the Software
and all accompanying materials on a permanent basis as part of a sale or transfer
of the Dell product if you retain no copies and the recipient agrees to the terms
hereof. Any transfer must include the most recent update and all prior versions. You
may not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Software. If the package
accompanying your computer contains compact discs, 3.5” and/or 5.25” disks, you
may use only the disks appropriate for your computer. You may not use the disks on
another computer or network, or loan, rent, lease, or transfer them to another user
except as permitted by this agreement.
Limited Warranty
Dell warrants that the Software disks will be free from defects in materials and
workmanship under normal use for ninety (90) days from the date you receive
them. This warranty is limited to you and is not transferable. Any implied
warranties are limited to ninety (90) days from the date you receive the Software.
Some jurisdictions do not allow limits on the duration of an implied warranty, so
this limitation may not apply to you. The entire liability of Dell and its suppliers,
and your exclusive remedy, shall be (a) return of the price paid for the Software or
(b) replacement of any disk not meeting this warranty that is sent with a return
authorization number to Dell, at your cost and risk. This limited warranty is void if
any disk damage has resulted from accident, abuse, misapplication, or service or
modification by someone other than Dell. Any replacement disk is warranted for
the remaining original warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer.
Dell does NOT warrant that the functions of the Software will meet your requirements
or that operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. You assume
responsibility for selecting the Software to achieve your intended results and for
the use and results obtained from the Software.
