1. GRANT OF LICENSE. This License Agreement permits you to use one copy of the enclosed StrateCision software program (the "SOFTWARE") on a single computer.

2. COPYRIGHT. The SOFTWARE is owned by StrateCision or its suppliers and is protected by United States copyright laws and international treaty provisions. Therefore, you must treat the SOFTWARE like any other copyrighted material (e.g., a book or musical recording) except that you may either (a) make one copy of the SOFTWARE solely for backup or archival purposes, or (b) transfer the SOFTWARE to a single hard disk provided you keep the original solely for backup or archival purposes. You may not copy the written materials accompanying the SOFTWARE. You may not remove the copyright notice from the SOFTWARE or any printed reports produced by it.

VERSIONS AND OPTIONS

StrateCision Software typically is available with or without different features or options. These include State Supplements, an MGA feature, and a Group Proposal feature. These options are described elsewhere on this website, and each of them is available at an additional cost. Although Free Trial versions of StrateCision Software may contain these optional features, the features will not be available in a Licensed Version unless they are also licensed and additional charges are paid.

RETURN AND TRANSFER POLICY

StrateCision Software that You install on a computer may be returned within 30 days for a refund, net of shipping charges and a Service Fee of $25. For products shipped on CD-ROM, the disks must be returned to StrateCision to receive a refund.

For products downloaded from StrateCision's website, the 30 day return period begins on the date that the download link is sent to You, and includes any Free Trial Period offered with the Software.

Renewal subscriptions of licensed software cannot be returned

You may transfer Your License to another Licensee, provided that you remove the software from Your computer and notify StrateCision of the name, address, phone number and email address of the new Licensee, who will then acquire the remainder of Your subscription to the Software.

TRANSFER TO A LICENSEE'S NEW COMPUTER

A licensee of StrateCision Software with a current subscription is in general allowed to install the Software on two computers owned by the licensee, typically an office desktop and a portable laptop computer. This allowance does not apply to network versions of the Software, for which only one install is permitted.

Each installation of StrateCision's LTC Quote Plus or LTC Advisor Plus Software is identified by a 10-digit ID Key that is created by the Software when it is first run. This key must be reported to StrateCision in order to register the installation and allow updates to be downloaded from StrateCision's website.

A licensee that has installed the Software on two computers may install on a third computer by first uninstalling from one of the original computers. The licensee must then report to StrateCision the ID Key that has been uninstalled and the Key of the new installation, whereupon StrateCision will replace the old Key with the new one, allowing the new install to register and download updates. This transfer of ID Keys may also be necessary if a licensee's hard drive is reformatted or replaced.

Because of the possibility of abuse of the ID Key transfer option and because of the processing cost to StrateCision, a licensee is limited to three such transfers during a one-year subscription period. Any additional transfers requested by a licensee will be subject to a $40 Registration Transfer Fee for each Key that is replaced. Once a Key has been changed by StrateCision the change cannot be canceled or reversed, except by paying an additional Transfer Fee. The Fee may be increased by StrateCision at any time without prior notice.

REFUSAL TO PROVIDE SOFTWARE OR SERVICES

StrateCision reserves the right to refuse to license its software or services to any person or organization, based on its sole discretion. In the event that licensing is denied. StrateCision is under no obligation to explain or justify its decisions to not license its software or services.
