LICENSED APPLICATION END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS SERVICE AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND OBLIGATIONS.

These terms of service constitute a legally binding agreement between you and AffinityClick Inc. (“Company” or “PhoneHub” or “we” or “us” or “our” or other similar pronouns). The following terms of service (together with any documents referred to in them) (collectively, the “Terms”) apply to your use of our services, including any content, functionality and services offered on or through our websites, and to any mobile, tablet and other smart device applications, and application program interfaces, including the calling and text messages services (collectively, the “Services”) we offer users with mobile devices (“You”).

 

The Services are transacted through a licensed application (“Licensed Application”) for mobile devices. Our Licensed Application is licensed, not sold, to You for use only under the terms of this license, unless a product or service is accompanied by a separate license agreement, in which case the terms of that separate license agreement will govern, subject to Your prior acceptance of that separate license agreement. We reserve all rights not expressly granted to You.

 

Your access to and use of the Services is conditioned upon your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who wish to access or use the Services. If you are accessing and/or using the Services on behalf of another individual, or as a consultant or agent of a third party, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to act on behalf of and bind such individual or third party principal to these Terms.

 

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, THEN YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE.

 

1. Scope of License

1.1 The Company hereby grants to You a limited, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable license to use the Service and Licensed Application on any mobile device that You own or control, subject to the terms and conditions herein.

1.2 The Company or its licensors own all rights, title and interest (inclusive of all intellectual property rights) in and to the Services and Licensed Application and any and all software, content, methodologies, technology, designs, graphics, illustrations, logos and marks used by us to provide the Service or in connection therewith (“Company IP”). You do not have any rights to, and may not, rent, lease, lend, sell, copy, transfer, reproduce, distribute, redistribute, sublicense, display, adapt or modify the Licensed Application or any Company IP. All rights not expressly granted to You are retained by the Company.
