This Master End User License Agreement ("Agreement" or "EULA") is a legally binding contract. By installing, accessing, downloading, copying, executing, or otherwise using any Software covered by this Agreement, the Licensee acknowledges that it has read, understood, and agreed to be bound by this Agreement.
If the Licensee does not agree to this Agreement, the Licensee must not install, access, download, copy, execute, or use the Software.
1. PARTIES AND SOFTWARE COVERED
This Agreement is entered into by and between IOANNIS SIOKOS, an individual, together with any permitted successors and assigns (the "Licensor"), and the individual or legal entity that downloads, installs, accesses, or otherwise uses the Software (the "Licensee"). The Licensor and Licensee are collectively referred to as the "Parties" and individually as a "Party."
For purposes of this Agreement, "Software" means any software application, game, simulation, educational tool, research tool, professional tool, training tool, plugin, script, module, API, executable, source-code release, object-code release, compiled binary, library, digital asset package, documentation, user interface, audiovisual element, model, texture, sound effect, music file, data file, configuration file, update, patch, modification, or related digital material made available by the Licensor and accompanied by, linked to, distributed with, or otherwise referencing this Agreement.
For purposes of this Agreement, "Licensor Marks" means the names, trademarks, service marks, trade names, product names, project names, logos, branding, domain names, and other source identifiers of the Licensor, including without limitation IOANNIS SIOKOS, Heal Simulations, and the names of any applicable Software products, whether registered or unregistered.
For purposes of this Agreement, "Licensee Data" means data, files, information, content, or materials submitted to, processed by, stored in, or used with the Software by or on behalf of the Licensee, excluding the Software, Feedback, Licensor-owned materials, Licensor Marks, and Software outputs or materials owned by the Licensor.
This Agreement applies only to Software that expressly references, links to, incorporates, or is distributed with this Agreement.
If separate product-specific terms, order terms, subscription terms, app-store terms, platform terms, written agreements, publication guidelines, attribution guidelines, or open-source license terms apply to a particular Software product, those separate terms shall control to the extent of any conflict with this Agreement.
2. GRANT OF LICENSE
Subject to the Licensee's continuing compliance with this Agreement, the Licensor grants the Licensee a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to install, access, and use the applicable Software solely for the purposes permitted by this Agreement and any applicable product-specific terms.
Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing by the Licensor, the Software may be used only for the Licensee's internal, personal, educational, research, testing, demonstration, or evaluation purposes.
This Agreement does not transfer ownership of the Software to the Licensee. The Software is licensed, not sold.
The Licensee receives only the rights expressly granted in this Agreement. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by the Licensor.
Where the Software is provided under a paid license, subscription, order form, invoice, or commercial agreement, the Licensee's rights are also subject to payment of all applicable fees and compliance with the applicable commercial terms.
Where the Software is provided free of charge, as a beta, trial, demo, prototype, research version, educational version, or evaluation version, the Licensor may modify, suspend, restrict, or discontinue access to the Software at any time, subject to mandatory rights that cannot be waived under applicable law.
3. RETENTION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the Licensor retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including without limitation all:

The Licensee acquires no ownership rights, equitable interest, or proprietary claim of any kind in or to the Software through installation, access, testing, evaluation, use, contribution of resources, or any other interaction with the Software.
The provision by the Licensee of computing equipment, network infrastructure, testing facilities, institutional resources, personnel time, feedback, test data, publications, academic work, research work, demonstrations, evaluations, or other tangible or intangible contribution shall not create any ownership, co-ownership, joint authorship, work-for-hire, inventorship, revenue share, royalty right, equity right, sales participation, or other proprietary or financial claim in the Software, Licensor Marks, Licensor business, or any product or service of the Licensor.
To the extent the Licensee creates or provides any unauthorized modification, derivative work, adaptation, improvement, or enhancement based on the Software, the Licensee hereby assigns to the Licensor all right, title, and interest in such work to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. To the extent such assignment is not legally effective, the Licensee grants the Licensor a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable, sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, display, perform, commercialize, and otherwise exploit such work for any purpose.
Nothing in this Agreement transfers ownership of Licensee Data, except for Feedback as described in Section 4 and except to the extent Licensee Data includes unauthorized modifications, derivative works, infringing materials, or Licensor-owned materials.
4. FEEDBACK
The Licensee may voluntarily provide the Licensor with feedback, suggestions, comments, bug reports, error reports, ideas, recommendations, proposals, modifications, test data, or other information relating to the Software (collectively, "Feedback").
By providing Feedback, the Licensee grants the Licensor a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, distribute, publish, commercialize, incorporate, and otherwise exploit such Feedback for any purpose, without restriction, attribution, accounting, or compensation to the Licensee.
To the extent any Feedback consists of code contributions, modifications, derivative works, or other protectable material, the Licensee assigns to the Licensor all right, title, and interest in such Feedback to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. To the extent such assignment is not legally effective, the Licensee grants the Licensor the broad license described above.
The Licensee represents and warrants that it has the legal authority to provide the Feedback and grant the rights described in this Section, and that the Feedback does not infringe or misappropriate the rights of any third party.
The Licensee waives, releases, and disclaims, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any claim for compensation, royalties, attribution, ownership, co-ownership, joint authorship, co-inventorship, moral rights, revenue share, sales participation, equity, profit participation, or other rights arising from or relating to Feedback provided to the Licensor.
