Authorized Partner: means an authorized Seagull Scientific reseller, partner or OEM.

Contractor: means those independent third parties who perform services related to this Agreement for you, but solely to the extent they are acting on your behalf.

Documentation: means any supporting product help and technical specifications documentation provided by Seagull Scientific with the Software to you. Documentation does not include white papers, community forums, training videos, tutorials, Knowledge Base articles or other similar resources which may be made available for your convenience.

License Certificate: means the document from Seagull Scientific that includes your Product Key Code that you receive after your order is fulfilled. Each License Certificate you receive shall be deemed a part of this Agreement.

License Term: means the Software Product license term specified on the applicable License Certificate from Seagull Scientific or by an Authorized Partner. The License Term may be a fixed term, a perpetual term or a limited term for certain editions.

Personal Data: Personal data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable living individual or recognized legal entity. Different pieces of information, which collected together can lead to the identification of a particular person or entity, also constitute personal data.

Printed Item(s): Each discrete printed item is counted as one (1) printed item. For example, if content is merged into a template to generate one or more pages where each page contains multiple labels, each label on each page is counted as one (1) printed item. Similarly, if content is merged into a template to generate one or more pages of a pdf file, such as receipts, tags, invoices or packing slips, each discrete item on each individual page is counted as one (1) printed item.

Product Key Code: means the valid license key(s), license code, uniquely identifiable user registration or Software activation code (“PKC”) provided to you at the time of purchase.

Software: means the proprietary Seagull Scientific software provided in connection with this Agreement in either Source Code or machine code form (or as otherwise specified in any related License Certificate), as more fully described in the Documentation. “Software Product” shall also include any Support and Maintenance Services releases and updates provided to you under this Agreement.

Source Code means any collection of code, with or without comments, written using a human-readable programming language, usually as plain text. The source code of a program is specially designed to facilitate the work of computer programmers, who specify the actions to be performed by a computer mostly by writing source code. The source code is often transformed by an assembler or compiler into binary machine code that can be executed by the computer. The machine code might then be stored for execution at a later time. Alternatively, source code may be interpreted and thus immediately executed.

Unless otherwise noted, the Software, Support and Maintenance Service, and Documentation are referred to collectively herein as “Software Product(s)”. All undefined names of Software Products have the meanings given to them in the Documentation.

User Content: means any data, email address, file attachments, text, images, reports, personal information, or other content that is uploaded or submitted to the online Portal by you and is processed by Seagull Scientific on your behalf.

2.6.4 Printer-Based License. When your license is based on the maximum number of printers used in each 7-Day Period. Usage of a printer is counted as that printer is used by BarTender Software directly, or when such usage is by automated usage by any of the companion applications or the software development kit (“SDK”) Seagull Scientific provides. A usage shall mean use to print a template from a BarTender Software Document (BTW file) directly to that printer, or to create a PDF or similar type of data stream that is subsequently sent to print at that printer. While the BarTender Licensing Service attempts to monitor the printer count and license compliance, it is your responsibility to ensure that you are licensed for the actual number of printers being used. The total number printers licensed to use your Software Product must not, in a 7-Day Period, exceed the number of licenses purchased on the applicable License Certificate(s) or received by you from Seagull Scientific, including to the extent applicable, across all production and non-production environments.

2.6.5 Printed Item-Based License. When BarTender Software is used to generate electronic documents such as PDF files, licensing is based on the number of items printed per week, with each printer license granting the right to generate up to 2,000 Printed Items per week. While the BarTender Licensing Service attempts to monitor the number of items printed per week and license compliance, it is your responsibility to ensure that you print no more than 2,000 items per week per printer license. The total number of Printed Items printed in a week must not, in a 7-Day Period, exceed 2,000 per printer license, including to the extent applicable, across all production and non-production environments.

A redundant BarTender Licensing Service may be operational only when the primary site is nonoperational. Except for system maintenance and updating of databases, the redundant Software Product installation(s) shall remain dormant while the primary site (or any other redundant site) is operational.

2.6.8 The Free Edition cannot be used in combination with keystroke emulation for any reason and specifically for the purpose of entering data to print.

By participating 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 are required for you to participate in the Program.

12.1 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 web pages, emails, forums, content, and feedback, for the purpose of providing Seagull with useful information about your experience with the Software.

  • 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.
  • 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 Seagull.
  • Your Program participation does not obligate Seagull to provide you with Software.
  • 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 (a) permitted by applicable law; (b) permitted by licensing terms governing the use of open-source components that may be included with the Software; or (c) 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.

12.2 WIP. The term “WIP” refers to work in progress in this Software. The WIP Software may be substantially different from the commercially released version. Because the Software may contain more errors or inaccuracies, you should back-up your device before installing the Software. We recommend installing the Software 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.

  • Prerelease and Experimental Software. The WIP may have reduced, nonexistent, or different security, privacy, accessibility, availability, and reliability standards relative to commercially provided software.
  • Recovery. To recover, you may have to reinstall your apps, the operating system, or re-flash your device. In some instances, you may not be able to go back to your prior version of software.
  • Support. Only the most recent Preview release is supported in accordance with Seagull Support policies (https://www.seagullscientific.com/legal/maintenance-and-support-agreement/)

12.3 Feedback. We provide WIP Software 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 the WIP Software. When you provide us comments, suggestions or other feedback about the WIP Software (“Feedback”), you grant Seagull and its partners rights to use the Feedback in any way and for any purpose. You acknowledge that your Feedback may be viewed by other Program participants.

12.4 Non-Transferable. You may not transfer or share the Software or related documentation or materials you receive from Seagull as part of your participation in the Program, unless otherwise agreed or permitted by Seagull, or except if the laws where you live (or, if a business, where your principal place of business is located) permit this, even if our Agreement does not.

12.5 Opt-Out. If you change your mind about participating in the Program, you may voluntarily opt-out at any time. Just stop using and un-install and delete all copies of the WIP Software.

12.6 Reservation of Rights. Seagull may have patents, patent applications, trademarks, copyrights, or other intellectual property rights covering subject matter in the WIP Software. Except as expressly provided in any written license agreement from Seagull, the furnishing of the WIP Software does not give you any license to these patents, trademarks, copyrights, or other intellectual property. Seagull reserves all rights not expressly granted under this Agreement, and no other rights are granted under this Agreement by implication or estoppel or otherwise.
