This License governs the Plex.Earth Software Product, which includes computer software (including online and electronic documentation), Internet-based Remote Services, any associated media and anything in any form whatsoever intended to be used with the software (the "Software Product").

A basic prerequisite for the functionality of Plex.Earth Software Product is an open Internet connection. The Software Product requires the input data by an Internet-based Remote Service (Web Service), located in the Plexscape Servers, to accomplish specific tasks, such as:

- the calculation of the variables values used by the locally installed Software Product.

This License applies to updates, supplements, add-on components and Internet-based services of the software that Plexscape may provide or make available to you unless Plexscape provides other terms with the update, supplement, add-on component, or Internet-based services component. Plexscape reserves the right to discontinue any Internet-based services provided to you or made available to you through the use of the Software Product. This License also governs any product support services relating to the Software Product except as may be included in another agreement between you and Plexscape.

By installing, copying, downloading, accessing, or otherwise using the Software Product, you agree to be bound by the terms of this License.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT. You may return it to your place of purchase for a full refund, if relevant.

Plexscape is only willing to grant you this License if you obtained the Software Product from Plexscape or a Plexscape authorized reseller. If you obtained the Software Product from any other source you may not install or use the Software Product.
