End User Subscription Agreement
END USER SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
This End User Subscription Agreement (the “Agreement”) governs the purchase, access, and use of Products by the Customer listed on an Order (hereinafter “Customer” or “You” or “Your”). In order to use or receive the benefits of any Product, You must purchase the applicable Product through an Order. If Emanate Security (referred to as “Company”) introduces new Products in the future, such Products will be governed by this Agreement, depending on their Product category (i.e. SaaS, Software, Hardware, etc.).
If You are receiving access to or use of Products for proof of concept, beta testing, interactive demo, or other similar evaluative purposes (the “Evaluation Products”), then You may only use the Evaluation Products for Your own internal evaluation purposes for an agreed upon period. You and Company may, upon mutual written agreement, extend the Evaluation Period. At the end of the Evaluation Period, You must delete all Software and other components (including Documentation) related to the Evaluation Products, or You may be invoiced for the then-current list price for the Evaluation Products. If you are evaluating SaaS, You understand that Company may disable access to the SaaS automatically at the end of the Evaluation Period, without notice to You. At the end of the Evaluation Period, Customer Data will be deleted pursuant to Company’s six (6) month retention periods, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.
If You are participating in an interactive demo (not a Customer specific evaluation), You agree and understand that You will receive one instance of the SaaS which is shared with other prospective Company customers and users. For any Evaluation Products, only Sections 4, 5.7, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, and the applicable Definitions in Section 1 of this Agreement shall apply.

This Agreement may be periodically updated and the current version will be posted at https://docs.emanatesecurity.com/terms-of-service/end-user-subscription-agreement. Your continued use of the Products after a revised Agreement has been posted constitutes your acceptance of its terms.
