EULA - Insider Program
VELIXO INSIDER PROGRAM (Discontinued)
14 November 2022
Important note: the Velixo EULA – Insider Program agreement has been discontinued on 11 October in favor of the main User License Agreement.
Welcome to the Velixo Insider Program (“Program”)! Our Program gives volunteers (Insiders) the opportunity to test-drive experimental and pre-release software on your devices and participate in the Program – for free. We welcome your feedback to help us improve and make Velixo an even better product for everyone, so we are excited to hear what you think!
Before signing up, please carefully review all the Program terms which create a legal agreement between you and Velixo (or, based on where you live, or if a business, where your principal place of business is located, one of its affiliates) and governs your participation in the Program that, once accepted by you, applies to you. If you specify a company name when signing-up for the Program, this means you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of that organization or company. If you are entering this Agreement on behalf of an entity, such as your employer, you represent that you have the legal authority to bind that entity.
By signing-up to participate in the Program, you represent you are the legal age of “majority” where you live and agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement which is required for you to participate in the Program.
1. Program Participation.You are volunteering to participate in the Program with the knowledge that the purpose of this Program is to make experimental, preview, beta or other early pre-release software (“Software”) available to you, including related documentation, materials, and information such as Program webpages, emails, forums, content, feedback and other services (“Program Services”), for the purpose of providing Velixo with useful information about your experience with the Software and Program Services.
1.1 You understand that using experimental and early pre-release software means you may experience occasional crashes and data loss. By participating, you agree to frequently backup your data.
1.2 Your Program participation is voluntary and free, there is no compensation for your participation. Your participation does not create a legal partnership, agency, or employment relationship between you and Velixo.
1.3 Your Program participation does not obligate Velixo to provide you with Software or Program Services.
1.4 You agree not to decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, decrypt, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of any Software except and only to the extent that the foregoing restriction is (i) permitted by applicable law; (ii) permitted by licensing terms governing the use of open-source components that may be included with the software; or (iii) required to debug changes to any libraries licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License which are included with and linked to by the software.
2. The Velixo Insider Program (“Program”) versionsmay be substantially different from the commercially released versions. Because the Software may contain more errors or inaccuracies, you should back-up your device before installing any Software. We recommend installing on non-production devices that are not business critical because you are more likely to experience crashes, setting and policy changes, loss of data or apps, feature, and functionality changes, cause other apps to stop working, be updated, or removed from your device automatically without notice and other potential issues. We highly recommend that you do not install the Software on any systems you don’t directly control or that you share with others.
2.1 Prerelease and Experimental Software and Services. The Program may have not included, reduced, or different security, privacy, accessibility, availability, and reliability standards relative to commercially provided services and software. We may change or discontinue the Program at any time without notice.
2.2 Recovery. To recover, you may have to reinstall your apps. In some instances, you may not be able to go back to your prior version of Software.
2.3 Automatic Update. The Program updates automatically through the auto-updater. Some features may be removed or may stop working after a predetermined time period or at the end of an evaluation cycle once enough data has been collected.
2.4 Support. Limited or no support may be provided for the Program.
3. Feedback. We provide access to the Program to you so you can tell us more about what you like, what you don’t like, and what changes you would like to see in Velixo.
