FabFilter Software License Agreement
This license agreement concerns and describes your rights and the conditions upon which you may use
the FabFilter software you selected. We advise you to read this entire agreement. By accepting this
agreement or by using FabFilter software, you agree to all of these terms. If you do not accept and
comply with these terms, you may not use the FabFilter software or its features.
Applicability
This license agreement applies to all the FabFilter software, plug-ins and programs you may use during
the Evaluation period, and/or thereafter subject to an acquired license key to certain FabFilter software of
any version, including any and all upgrades, supplements or services, unless other terms come with such
versions, upgrades or supplements.
Licenses
The software will be licensed to the Customer, not sold. With the FabFilter license key, you will be
granted after full payment the right in perpetuity (meaning that the license agreement shall not
automatically expire) to install, run and use the software concerned under certain conditions. These
conditions vary subject to the license you acquired. FabFilter distinguishes the following licenses:
A Personal License is a named license to the software concerned, granting access to the software
on an unlimited number of Devices, as long the license is used by the designated person who
acquired the FabFilter license key. Usage of the Personal license by someone else but the
designated licensee is an infringement of the rights of FabFilter. The Customer should at all times
protect its license key from theft and/or abuse.
A Site License is a non-personal license to the FabFilter software concerned, acquired on the name
of an institution or entity, who is the licensee. A Site License will grant access to the FabFilter
software on a certain maximum number of designated Devices, as specified in the license key itself
(e.g. "20 seats"). If the Site License is used on computers/servers for any form of automated
processing, the licensee may not make any plug-in controls/parameters of the FabFilter software
available to the end users of the FabFilter software, i.e. only "black box" processing is allowed.
These FabFilter licenses, whether a Personal or Site License, will give you access to certain FabFilter
software of the specified major version. The license will include all future minor updates to the software
(e.g. version 2.19 to version 2.20), which typically include bug fixes or small new features. The license
will exclude any future new major versions of the products (e.g. version 1.x to version 2.x). To allow
yourself access to such new major version of the software, a new FabFilter license to such major version
must be acquired.
All FabFilter licenses, both Personal or Site License, give the Customer or end user the right to install and
use the FabFilter software to the extent it has been developed and under the conditions herein. Any
rights not explicitly granted to you, the Customer, remain with FabFilter, including but not limited to the
right to alter, reverse engineer, reverse compile, take apart, or disassemble the FabFilter software or any
of the files in the distribution.
A Bundle License is Personal or Site License for multiple FabFilter software products, which gives the
Customer or end user the right to install and use the specific software products that the bundle (e.g.
Total Bundle) contains at the moment of purchasing the Bundle License. Any software products or new
major software versions added to the bundle after that date cannot be claimed as part of the prior
acquired Bundle License. A Bundle License (if not Educational or NFR) can only be transferred as a whole,
using a License Transfer.
An Upgrade License is a Personal or Site License for a new major version of FabFilter software. You may
only use an Upgrade License if you have a license for the previous major version of the same FabFilter
software.
Educational (EDU) and NFR licenses
A Personal or Site License can be marked as EDU (Educational) or NFR (Not For Resale), meaning the
following:
A Personal or Site License marked as Educational License is equal to the respective Personal or Site
License, with the only exception that the Educational License may not be transferred to a third
party.
A Personal or Site License marked as NFR ("Not For Resale"), is typically intended for journalists
that wish to review the FabFilter software. A License marked as NFR is equal to the respective
Personal or Site License, with the only exception that the NFR License may not be transferred to a
third party.
Duration and Evaluation
As specified in the specific terms per license, all licenses will be granted for perpetuity (meaning that the
license agreement shall not automatically expire), as long as all conditions herein are respected.
