End User: The physical person using the Products on behalf of the Customer.

EULA: This End User License Agreement between the Supplier and the End user.

Supplier: Pixotope Technologies AS with business registration no. 812 664 522, and registered office address Sommerogata 13-15, 0255 Oslo, Norway. 

3. Your rights and obligations to the Product as the End User

The End User has the right to take back-up copies of the Product to the extent necessary for the use of the Product.

The End User himself is responsible and liable for all use of the Product, including the data the End User enters into the Product, how the End User uses data generated from the Product and any other results that the End User’s use of the Product generates.

The End User shall comply with any and all restrictions regarding use of the Product, which may be stipulated in manuals and similar documentation related to a Product, this Agreement or other restrictions which the End User should reasonably expect from the Supplier, such as ensuring that the Product is not exposed to computer viruses or similar.

The End User shall not make changes in the underlying software or database of the Product.

The End User shall have no right of title or ownership to the Product, and no right to sub-license or to distribute, license (whether or not through multiple tiers) or otherwise transfer the Product to any third party or incorporate the Product in any software, product or technology.

It is the End User’s responsibility to take adequate precautions to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of username and password. The End User shall immediately notify the Customer and Supplier if the End User becomes aware of any unauthorized use of the Customer’s Account.

If the End User enters any personal data to the Product and/or any of the Supplier’s other databases or systems, whether as user-generated content or as data related to an End User’s account, the End User is responsible for ensuring a legal basis for the required processing of that personal data.

The Supplier will only need to process personal data such as name, phone number and e-mail address of the Customer’s contact persons, user name and password for the End Users and billing information as well as company name regarding such persons.
