Software and Licensing

1. Software Licensing

Magna5 may use third-party software licenses in provisioning services, including monitoring, cybersecurity, and backup software (“Software”). These licenses are and will remain the exclusive property of Magna5. Clients will obtain no rights to these licenses or the source code of the Software.

Magna5 grants clients a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable, and non-sublicensable license to use the Software solely in connection with the services for which such Software is utilized (“License”). This License will terminate immediately upon termination of the associated services. Magna5 may terminate the License and any related services if it determines that the client has breached the terms of the License.

Upon termination of the License, clients must immediately cease using the Software and related documentation. Clients must certify to Magna5 within ten (10) days after termination that they have either destroyed or returned to Magna5 the Software, documentation, and all related information and copies.

2. Client Licensing Responsibility

If clients deploy third-party software products (“Client Provided Licensing”) within any service, and these products are not defined as Software by Magna5, clients represent and warrant that they own sufficient licenses to allow for deployment and usage of such Client Provided Licensing within the service for as long as it remains deployed.

Magna5 may provide licensors of any Software with information such as the identities and configurations of any virtual or physical computers on which the Software may be installed, the identity of any such Software, and copies of relevant documentation. Clients’ use of any Software or Client Provided Licensing beyond the rights conveyed by Magna5 or the original agreement may result in additional fees or penalties. Clients must reimburse Magna5 for any such fees or penalties incurred due to excess or improper usage. Failure to reimburse or cooperate in resolving non-compliant use may lead Magna5 to suspend access to the related services.

Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Policy

Magna5 responds promptly to claims of intellectual property infringement. Notices should be directed to [email protected].
