|
---|
14 | This Agreement is a Free Software license agreement that is the result
|
---|
15 | of discussions between its authors in order to ensure compliance with
|
---|
16 | the two main principles guiding its drafting:
|
---|
17 |
|
---|
18 | * firstly, compliance with the principles governing the distribution
|
---|
19 | of Free Software: access to source code, broad rights granted to
|
---|
20 | users,
|
---|
21 | * secondly, the election of a governing law, French law, with which
|
---|
22 | it is conformant, both as regards the law of torts and
|
---|
23 | intellectual property law, and the protection that it offers to
|
---|
24 | both authors and holders of the economic rights over software.

43 | Preamble
|
---|
44 |
|
---|
45 | The purpose of this Free Software license agreement is to grant users
|
---|
46 | the right to modify and re-use the software governed by this license.
|
---|
47 |
|
---|
48 | The exercising of this right is conditional upon the obligation to make
|
---|
49 | available to the community the modifications made to the source code of
|
---|
50 | the software so as to contribute to its evolution.
|
---|
51 |
|
---|
52 | In consideration of access to the source code and the rights to copy,
|
---|
53 | modify and redistribute granted by the license, users are provided only
|
---|
54 | with a limited warranty and the software's author, the holder of the
|
---|
55 | economic rights, and the successive licensors only have limited liability.
|
---|
56 |
|
---|
57 | In this respect, the risks associated with loading, using, modifying
|
---|
58 | and/or developing or reproducing the software by the user are brought to
|
---|
59 | the user's attention, given its Free Software status, which may make it
|
---|
60 | complicated to use, with the result that its use is reserved for
|
---|
61 | developers and experienced professionals having in-depth computer
|
---|
62 | knowledge. Users are therefore encouraged to load and test the
|
---|
63 | suitability of the software as regards their requirements in conditions
|
---|
64 | enabling the security of their systems and/or data to be ensured and,
|
---|
65 | more generally, to use and operate it in the same conditions of
|
---|
66 | security. This Agreement may be freely reproduced and published,
|
---|
67 | provided it is not altered, and that no provisions are either added or
|
---|
68 | removed herefrom.
|
---|
69 |
|
---|
70 | This Agreement may apply to any or all software for which the holder of
|
---|
71 | the economic rights decides to submit the use thereof to its provisions.

394 | Article 9 - WARRANTY
|
---|
395 |
|
---|
396 | 9.1 The Licensee acknowledges that the scientific and technical
|
---|
397 | state-of-the-art when the Software was distributed did not enable all
|
---|
398 | possible uses to be tested and verified, nor for the presence of
|
---|
399 | possible defects to be detected. In this respect, the Licensee's
|
---|
400 | attention has been drawn to the risks associated with loading, using,
|
---|
401 | modifying and/or developing and reproducing the Software which are
|
---|
402 | reserved for experienced users.
|
---|
403 |
|
---|
404 | The Licensee shall be responsible for verifying, by any or all means,
|
---|
405 | the suitability of the product for its requirements, its good working
|
---|
406 | order, and for ensuring that it shall not cause damage to either persons
|
---|
407 | or properties.
|
---|
408 |
|
---|
409 | 9.2 The Licensor hereby represents, in good faith, that it is entitled
|
---|
410 | to grant all the rights over the Software (including in particular the
|
---|
411 | rights set forth in Article 5).
|
---|
412 |
|
---|
413 | 9.3 The Licensee acknowledges that the Software is supplied "as is" by
|
---|
414 | the Licensor without any other express or tacit warranty, other than
|
---|
415 | that provided for in Article 9.2 and, in particular, without any warranty
|
---|
416 | as to its commercial value, its secured, safe, innovative or relevant
|
---|
417 | nature.
|
---|
418 |
|
---|
419 | Specifically, the Licensor does not warrant that the Software is free
|
---|
420 | from any error, that it will operate without interruption, that it will
|
---|
421 | be compatible with the Licensee's own equipment and software
|
---|
422 | configuration, nor that it will meet the Licensee's requirements.
|
---|
423 |
|
---|
424 | 9.4 The Licensor does not either expressly or tacitly warrant that the
|
---|
425 | Software does not infringe any third party intellectual property right
|
---|
426 | relating to a patent, software or any other property right. Therefore,
|
---|
427 | the Licensor disclaims any and all liability towards the Licensee
|
---|
428 | arising out of any or all proceedings for infringement that may be
|
---|
429 | instituted in respect of the use, modification and redistribution of the
|
---|
430 | Software. Nevertheless, should such proceedings be instituted against
|
---|
431 | the Licensee, the Licensor shall provide it with technical and legal
|
---|
432 | assistance for its defense. Such technical and legal assistance shall be
|
---|
433 | decided on a case-by-case basis between the relevant Licensor and the
|
---|
434 | Licensee pursuant to a memorandum of understanding. The Licensor
|
---|
435 | disclaims any and all liability as regards the Licensee's use of the
|
---|
436 | name of the Software. No warranty is given as regards the existence of
|
---|
437 | prior rights over the name of the Software or as regards the existence
|
---|
438 | of a trademark.

|
---|
442 |
|
---|
443 | 10.1 In the event of a breach by the Licensee of its obligations
|
---|
444 | hereunder, the Licensor may automatically terminate this Agreement
|
---|
445 | thirty (30) days after notice has been sent to the Licensee and has
|
---|
446 | remained ineffective.
|
---|
447 |
|
---|
448 | 10.2 A Licensee whose Agreement is terminated shall no longer be
|
---|
449 | authorized to use, modify or distribute the Software. However, any
|
---|
450 | licenses that it may have granted prior to termination of the Agreement
|
---|
451 | shall remain valid subject to their having been granted in compliance
|
---|
452 | with the terms and conditions hereof.

485 | text. All other provisions shall remain effective. Similarly, invalidity
