	END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT

IMPORTANT - READ CAREFULLY: This End-User License Agreement ("EULA") is a legal agreement between you(either an individual or a single entity) hereinafter referred to as "LICENSEE" and William Gordon, the Author of the computer program entitled PBD or Partition Bad Disk V3.3.2 (hereinafter referred to as "SOFTWARE"). By using the SOFTWARE in any way, you agree to be bound by the terms of this EULA. If you do not agree to ALL of the terms of this EULA, do not purchase, install or use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT and remove the copy of the SOFTWARE immediately.

All rights are reserved to and by the Author. The SOFTWARE is protected by copyright laws and international copyright treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties. The SOFTWARE is licensed, not sold, and hence your acquisition or purchase is that of a license.

There are three license types:

Personal License -- LICENSEE may use the SOFTWARE on computer owned or leased by the LICENSEE only. "Use" of the SOFTWARE means that LICENSEE has loaded, installed or run the SOFTWARE on to a workstation or computer (latter referred to as "computers" or "computer"). One license is for one computer. LICENSEE may not transfer the SOFTWARE from one computer to another if the SOFTWARE is already installed and registered on one computer. LICENSEE may use this SOFTWARE only for non-commercial purposes in non-commercial or non-business environment.  

Business License -- LICENSEE may use the SOFTWARE on computer owned or leased by the LICENSEE only.  "Use" of the SOFTWARE means that LICENSEE has loaded, installed or run the SOFTWARE on to a workstation or computer (latter referred to as "computers" or "computer"). LICENSEE may use the SOFTWARE on 10 computers within the same orginazation at the same site. LICENSEE may not use the SOFTWARE at different site even it belongs to the same orginazation. LICENSEE may use this SOFTWARE in corporate, governmental or business environment.

Machine Code Based License -- LICENSEE may use this SOFTWARE for one Machine Code. LICENSEE may use this SOFTWARE on any number of computers but only for the same Machine Code. Machine Code is generated based on the information of the target hard disk(HDD) and usually will not change even the HDD is attached to different computers (thus allow LICENSEE to use the same license on different computers to process the same HDD). Different HDDs have different Machine Codes. Forging hardware/software information to generate same Machine Code for different HDDs is prohibited. Note that HDD connected to computer via USB port may change its Machine Code, thus needs different license. We suggest you connect HDD directly to the computer via IDE/SATA port(not via USB port) for PBD to process. 

All the three license types are for using PBD, not for using the HDD processed by PBD. Using the HDD processed by PBD does not require a license.

LICENSEE may use this SOFTWARE in compliance with all applicable laws and not for any unlawful purpose. 

LICENSEE may not sell, transfer, sublicense, lend, rent, lease or give the product to any third party or allow any third party to use the product unless you are an Authorized Reseller or have written permission from the Author.

LICENSEE may not reverse engineer, de-compile, disassemble, modify, translate, and attempt to discover the source code of the Software or permit others to do so, except and only to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation. 

For Personal License and Machine Code Based License, we may provide LICENSEE with support services related to the SOFTWARE for 90 days from the day of purchase. For Business License, we may provide LICENSEE with support services for 2 years from the day of purchase. LICENSEE should upgrade to the latest version of the SOFTWARE. Any supplemental software code provided to LICENSEE as part of the support services shall be considered part of the SOFTWARE and subject to the terms and conditions of this EULA. We may use any feedback information about the SOFTWAR for its business purposes, including for product support and development, royalty free and without further notice to LICENSEE. 

We accept refund request only within 30 days after purchase if LICENSEE meets problem caused by the bug of the SOFTWARE and we can not provide a solution within 1 week. LICENSEE should provide us with the necessary information to fix the bug in time, otherwise there would be a delay. The refund amount is the product price minus 7.9% of the price.

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHOR, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, OR CONTRACTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE. THESE INCLUDE, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OS PROFIT, LOSS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, LOSS OR DAMAGES TO PROPERTY, INJURIES TO ANY PERSON, EVEN IF THE AUTHOR HAS BEEN ADVISED ON THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES. LICENSEE USES THE SOFTWARE AT HIS OWN RISK.
