B部分:与订阅许可证有关的特殊规定

如果您购买的是订阅许可证,其具体条款和条件将在您购买的Graphisoft合作伙伴向您提供的服务条款("TOS")中列出,如果您直接从Graphisoft购买,则会在您于Graphisoft商店(https://shop.graphisoft.com)或Graphisoft旧版商店(https://store.graphisoft.com )(统称为“Graphisoft商店”)购买时提供。以下适用于您的订阅的条款和条件构成本协议不可分割的一部分。如果以下规定与适用于您的订阅的服务条款之间存在任何差异,应以服务条款的规定为准。

 

1. B 部分的定义

在本节中,以下术语具有下文定义的含义:

1.1."管理员" 是指在客户首次购买订阅期间,或者在以其他流程创建“Graphisoft 公司 ID”的过程中(如果发生在首次购买订阅之前)自动为客户生成的角色。管理员负责邀请或断开“Graphisoft 公司 ID”成员的连接。管理员通过许可证管理门户管理成员对软件许可证的访问,因此他/她可以访问分配给成员的所有许可证。对于BIMcloud订阅,管理员设置和管理客户BIMcloud租户内成员的权限。管理员角色可以转让给另一位成员。

1.2. "关联方" 是指任何直接或间接:(i) 控制、与Graphisoft共同控制或受Graphisoft控制的个人、公司或其他实体或协会;或 (ii) Graphisoft 或上文(i)中定义的关联方直接或间接、合法或受益地拥有其股权或投票权的任何个人、公司或其他实体或协会。

1.3."计费周期" 是指确定向客户计费的频率和时间。期限为每月、每年或每年多次,取决于所购买的订阅期限。

1.11.“客户”或“您”是指通过Graphisoft商店购买订阅的个人或实体以及每个成员 - 在必要的身份验证后 - 代表该个人或实体访问订阅的所有人,这些人都被Graphisoft授权仅为其自身用途使用订阅,而不用于任何进一步的分发或转售。为了明确起见,客户包括客户聘请的任何第三方,代表名为客户的个人或实体购买并访问订阅(例如客户聘请的Graphisoft合作伙伴,用于在Graphisoft商店进行购买)。

1.12.“Graphisoft 公司 ID”是指客户在Graphisoft ID系统中的账户。Graphisoft 公司 ID 设置是属于客户的个人用户/成员Graphisoft ID设置的扩展。每个客户需要且只能使用一个“Graphisoft 公司 ID”在Graphisoft商店上购买和管理订阅。

1.13.“许可证管理门户”是指根据成员的权限管理以下任务的门户:检查许可证状态,向个人成员分配许可证,从成员处撤销许可证以及远程从设备释放许可证。

1.14.“成员”是指拥有有效Graphisoft ID并与Graphisoft 公司 ID关联的用户。

1.15.“正常工作时间”是指工作日的上午9点至下午5点(CET)。

1.16.“订单”是指客户在Graphisoft商店或合作伙伴在Graphisoft订购系统上所做的具有约束力的购买请求,目的是购买一个或多个订阅。订单包括在同一购买过程中购买的所有订阅,客户的支付信息以及应阅读和接受的适用条款和条件。订单对Graphisoft没有约束力。

1.17.“价格”是指客户为购买订阅支付的金额。价格包含客户应承担的所有应付款、费用和成本等。

1.18.“重新激活期”是指订阅期结束后的次日00:01(CET)开始的15(十五)天的时间段,这也可能是计费期的第一天,前提是该订阅是客户的最后一个活跃订阅,并且包含具有内容存储功能的相关软件。它仅适用于 BIMcloud 订阅或包含内容存储功能软件的任何其他类型的订阅。

1.19.“续订”是指订阅在后续时间段内的自动或手动延长,等同于订阅期,除非根据第11条终止。

1.20.“服务”是指作为订阅的一部分提供的与软件相关的服务,例如支持、维护等,由Graphisoft不时在https://graphisoft.com/legal/terms-of-use/services-and-benefits-of-subscription确定。

1.21.“软件”是指 Graphisoft 授权的最新版本的软件产品,构成订阅的一部分,在购买过程中的订阅说明中定义。软件还包括客户在订阅期内通过Graphisoft升级/更新到可用的新版本的资格。

1.22.“订阅”是指Graphisoft通过Graphisoft商店向客户出售的由软件和服务组成的许可订阅计划,具有固定的订阅期限,可在购买过程中获得。一个订阅可以包含一个或多个用户名的软件许可。

1.23.“订阅期”是指订阅可供客户使用和利用的固定时间段。

1.24.“用户”是指有资格使用Graphisoft商店或其他Graphisoft系统的人员。

3.6.客户在购买过程中选择将试用订阅自动转换为付费订阅后,试用订阅将自动转换为付费订阅,订阅期限在相关服务条款中定义。

3.7.客户接受客户购买的任何其他订阅均受本协议的约束,无需进一步明确表示接受。

 

4. 订阅的使用

4.1.Graphisoft特此批准给客户一项非独占、不可转让和有限的权利,以使用订阅和访问非客户所有的内容(例如Graphisoft的内容),其唯一目的是根据这些条款和条件以及适用于此类内容的相关服务条款和附加条款(如有)使用订阅,且仅供客户的业务或个人使用。

4.2.订阅的预期目的(合理使用)是针对建筑、工程、施工和运营(AECO)行业在项目文件上的工作流程。Graphisoft可以规定订阅的公平使用的其他规范(例如每个许可证最大上传(存储)GB),客户应遵守这些规范。任何与预期用途不符的订阅使用,和/或不符合Graphisoft规定的规格,将构成您违反这些条款和条件以及相关的服务条款,在这种情况下,Graphisoft有权终止您的订阅,移除任何内容,取消用户/成员账户而无需事先书面通知,或者根据Graphisoft的自行决定,可能会为客户提供不同使用需求的个别服务级别和定价。

4.3.您承认,Graphisoft有权在以下情况下,无需事先通知或未经您同意,删除您上传到订阅的任何内容:(i) 内容违法或危害公共秩序;或(ii) 内容妨碍订阅的提供。在这种情况下,在适用法律允许的范围内,Graphisoft不承担任何责任,您也无权获得任何赔偿。Graphisoft对此不承担任何责任,并且您无权就任何侵权使用、非法使用、内容或发布在您的订阅中的评论获得任何赔偿。

PART B: SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELEVANT TO SUBSCRIPTION LICENSE

In case you have purchased a subscription license, the specific terms and conditions thereof are set out in the Terms of Service ("TOS") made available to You by the Graphisoft Partner from whom you purchase, or in case of purchasing directly from Graphisoft made available to you during your purchase on Graphisoft Store (https://shop.graphisoft.com) or Graphisoft Legacy Store (https://store.graphisoft.com, collectively called "Graphisoft Store". The terms and conditions applicable to your Subscription(s) herein below constitute an inseparable part of this Agreement. In case of any discrepancies between the provisions hereinafter and the TOS applicable to Your Subscription, the provisions of the TOS shall prevail.

 

1. DEFINITIONS FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS PART B

For the purposes of this Section, the following terms shall bear the meaning defined herein below:

1.1. "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 the 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.

1.2. "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.

1.9. "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.

1.12. "Graphisoft ID Company" means the Customer's account in the Graphisoft ID system. The Graphisoft ID Company settings are an extension of the Graphisoft ID settings of individual Users/Members who belong to the Customer. Each Customer needs and may use only one Graphisoft ID Company for purchasing and managing Subscription(s) on the Graphisoft Store.

1.13. "License Management Portal" means the portal that manages the following tasks according to the Member's rights: checking license status, license assignment to an individual Member and license revocation from a Member and releasing license from a device remotely.

It is applicable only for the BIMcloud Subscription or any other type of Subscription consisting of Software with Content Storage functionality.

1.19. "Renewal" means the automatic or manual extension of a Subscription for subsequent time periods equivalent to the Subscription Term unless terminated in accordance with Section 11.

1.20. "Service(s)" means the services related to the Software, provided as part of the Subscription(s), for example support, maintenance, etc., as determined by Graphisoft at https://graphisoft.com/legal/terms-of-use/services-and-benefits-of-subscription from time to time.
