2 License and Restrictions
2.1 Evaluation Rights to Use. During the applicable License Term and subject to Customer’s compliance to the terms of this Agreement, ForgeRock grants to Customer a non-exclusive, non- transferable, limited license to permit its employees to: (a) access, use, copy, and install any NPSS provided pursuant to this Agreement (solely at Customer’s facilities, at a Customer-controlled space within a third-party data center or a third-party hosting provider associated with a Customer-controlled account); (b) access and use any NPSS hosted within a virtual environment; or (c) access and use any NPSS, in all cases solely for the purpose(s) of evaluating, testing, and demonstrating the NPSS in a non-production environment. If Customer intends to use NPSS in a production environment, Customer must purchase a production license from ForgeRock and may only use the software licensed thereunder in accordance with the terms and conditions of the ForgeRock license agreement found at www.forgerock.com/terms.
2.2 Existing Customer Additional Rights to NPSS Source. If Customer holds a current and valid license to ForgeRock’s generally available software license (“Customer Software License”), then ForgeRock may provide to Customer NPSS Source pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2. NPSS Source contains source code owned or licensed by ForgeRock (“Proprietary Code”) and code distributed by ForgeRock subject to a third-party license (“Third Party Code”). Subject to compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the Customer Software License, ForgeRock grants to Customer a world-wide, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to the Proprietary Code to correct, modify, update and support the software licensed under the Customer Software License for the sole purpose of Customer exercising its license subject to all restrictions therein and solely as permitted in the documentation accompanying the ForgeRock software. All Third Party Code shall be subject solely to such license. Except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein, the Source Code shall be solely governed by this Non- Production License Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall expand the usage rights or scope of license in the Customer Software License.
2.3 Restrictions. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Customer shall not, directly or indirectly: (a) sublicense, resell, rent, lease, distribute or otherwise transfer rights or usage in the NPSS; (b) provide the NPSS on a timesharing, service bureau, service provider or other similar basis; (c) remove or alter any copyright, trademark or proprietary notice in the NPSS; (d) disseminate information or feedback about the NPSS (including, without limitation, benchmarks) to any third party; (e) reverse engineer or decompile any portion of the NPSS not provided in source code format, or in any way derive source code from the NPSS, except to the extent enforcement of the foregoing is prohibited by applicable law; (f) download or attempt to extract any software hosted as part of a service or otherwise contained in a ForgeRock environment, unless such software is specifically made available for download by ForgeRock; (g) load, transmit, process any personally identifiable information in any ForgeRock hosted system or NPSS environment in contravention of any privacy law; or (h) use the NPSS in a production environment, including but not limited to, the initiation or deployment of any environment intended to become or otherwise support a production environment.

All rights not expressly granted to Customer are reserved by ForgeRock and its licensors. To the extent ForgeRock has provided NPSS Source pursuant to Section 2.2 (Additional Rights to NPSS Source), any modifications made to the NPSS Source shall be deemed derivative works herein and owned exclusively by ForgeRock, provided that to the extent that Customer transforms such modifications to binary form then Customer shall have a license to use such derivative works pursuant to the restrictions of the Customer Software License, but only during such period such license remains valid, unless otherwise terminated pursuant herein. Customer is not obligated to provide ForgeRock with any suggestions, enhancements, recommendations, or other feedback (“Suggestions”). To the extent Customer does provide ForgeRock with any Suggestions, Customer hereby grants to ForgeRock a royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, irrevocable, right and license to use, copy, modify and distribute, without attribution, including by incorporating into any software or service owned by ForgeRock, any Suggestions provided by Customer relating to any software or service owned or offered by ForgeRock.

Any Usage Data collected by ForgeRock will be maintained in accordance with ForgeRock’s privacy policy. 4.2 Audit Rights. ForgeRock shall have the right at its expense to audit Customer’s records and books of accounts related to the software for the sole purpose of verifying compliance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, that: (a) Customer is provided at least ten (10) business days’ advance written notice of ForgeRock’s intention to audit and (b) the audit is conducted during normal business hours. If the audit reveals Customer has utilized the software in a production environment, Customer shall immediately pay ForgeRock’s then-applicable licensing fees and Customer shall pay the cost of the audit to ForgeRock.
5 Data Protection
The NPSS is not designed to comply with any specific government regulation or specific security measures. Customer agrees not to input content that may be subject to any such regulations or requires additional security measures. Customer is responsible for all necessary permissions to include the content in the NPSS and Customer grants ForgeRock permission to use, store and process the content

7.2 Exceptions to Obligation.

The NPSS is subject to U.S. export control laws, including the U.S. Export Administration Act and its associated regulations, and may be subject to export or import regulations in other countries. Customer agrees to comply fully with all laws and regulations of the United States and other countries (“Export Laws”) to assure that neither the NPSS, nor any direct products thereof are: (a) exported, directly or indirectly, in violation of Export Laws, either to any countries that are subject to U.S. export restrictions or to any end user who is prohibited from participating in the U.S. export transactions by any federal agency of the U.S. government or (b) intended to be used for any purpose prohibited by Export Laws, including, without limitation, nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons proliferation.

10.8 US Government Restrictions. Customer acknowledges that the NPSS consists of “commercial computer NPS” and “commercial computer NPSS documentation” as such terms are defined in the Code of Federal Regulations.

A waiver on one occasion shall not be construed as a waiver of any right on any future occasion.

In performing their respective duties under this Agreement ForgeRock and Customer will be operating as independent contractors and neither party is the legal representative, agent, joint venturer, or employee of the other party for any purpose whatsoever. The headings of the Sections of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be of any effect in construing the meaning of the Sections. In the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or otherwise unenforceable, such provision shall be enforced as nearly as possible in accordance with the stated intention of the parties, while the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and bind the parties according to its terms. To the extent any provision cannot be enforced in accordance with the stated intentions of the parties, such terms and conditions shall be deemed not to be a part of this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire and exclusive agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements between the parties with respect to such subject matter.
