PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE (HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS “TOS” OR “AGREEMENT”) CAREFULLY. BY PLACING YOUR ORDER FOR THE SUBSCRIPTION(S), YOU, AS THE CUSTOMER OR THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE CUSTOMER (DEFINED BELOW), DECLARE TO HAVE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS OF SERVICE (AS AVAILABLE ON THE GRAPHISOFT STORE), BEFORE THE SUBMISSION OF THE RESPECTIVE ORDER, AND YOU INDICATE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF, AND AGREEMENT TO, THESE TERMS OF SERVICE IN RELATION TO THE ORDERED SUBSCRIPTION(S) ON BEHALF OF THE CUSTOMER AND ANY USERS, IF ANY, WHETHER OR NOT EACH SUCH USER INDICATES HIS/HER INDIVIDUAL ACCEPTANCE.

1. DEFINITIONS

Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement the following terms shall bear the meaning defined herein below:

“Additional Charge” means a charge payable, in the case of on-site support or other services not expressly provided based on this TOS, in accordance with Graphisoft’s standard rates being in effect from time to time.

“Administrator” means the role automatically generated for Customer either during the process of purchasing Subscription at the first time or during the creation of the Graphisoft ID Company as part of another process in Graphisoft’s systems if it happened earlier than the first purchase of Subscription. The Administrator is responsible for inviting to or disconnecting Members from the Graphisoft ID Company. The Administrator manages Members' access to license(s) of the Software on the License Management Portal, thus he/she has access to all licenses assigned to Members. In case of BIMcloud Subscription the Administrator sets and manages the permission(s) of the Members within Customer’s BIMcloud Tenant. The Administrator role can be transferred to another Member.

“Affiliate” means any person, corporation or other entity or association which, directly or indirectly: (i) controls, is under common control with or is controlled by Graphisoft or (ii) in which equity or voting interests are owned, directly or indirectly, legally, or beneficially, by Graphisoft or its affiliates as defined in (i) above.

An Internet connection is regularly required to operate a cloud license. This means that Users can continue to use the licensed Software even when they are not connected to the Internet, although this offline use is subject to a predefined time limit as specified in Section 5.2. hereinafter. The licensing mechanism periodically checks the User's entitlement to access the Software and ensures that the terms and conditions specified in the relevant license agreements are met. This periodic validation serves two main purposes: first, it allows Graphisoft to ensure that the User's Subscription(s) or Software license(s) is(are) active and up-to-date, and second, it allows Graphisoft to monitor and control the use of the Software to prevent unauthorized access or misuse.

“Content” means any and all information and data uploaded, downloaded, made available or shared, via or related to any of the Software, by the Customer, its Members or Graphisoft, including but not limited to Software project files, backups, Member accounts and settings in the Software.

”Graphisoft ID” means the unique identifier generated for each Member by Graphisoft, based on the User’s/ Member’s e-mail address, for the purposes of allowing unified login to the various websites managed by Graphisoft, verifying the User’s/Member’s eligibility to use Graphisoft’s products and services, providing products and services for the User, and using and managing the Cloud License (if any).

“Graphisoft ID Company” means the Customer's account in the Graphisoft ID system.
