1.1 IT Job Bandit (“IT Job Bandit”) hereby grants to the Company and its End-Users (as defined below) (collectively You”), a royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, limited license to gain access to and use the IT Job Bandit online application (the “Software”) solely in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
Authorized users of the Software (the “End-Users”) will be able to access the Software by creating a login and password (where applicable). This is a limited use license/right to access and use, not a sale of the Software. You acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Agreement constitutes a sale of the Software to You, and further that this Agreement does not convey to you, any End-User or any third party, any ownership right, interest or title in or to the Software, or to any Intellectual Property Rights in this Agreement.
“Intellectual Property Rights” means any and all:
(i) proprietary rights provided under patent law, copyright law, trademark law, design patent or industrial design law, semi-conductor, chip or mask/work law or any other applicable statutory provision or otherwise arising at law or in equity anywhere in the world, including, without limitation, trade secret law, that may provide a right in works, software, source code, object code, marks, ideas, formulae, algorithms, concepts, methodologies, techniques, inventions, or know how, or the expression or use thereof,
(ii) applications, registrations, licenses, sublicenses, agreements, or any other evidence or a right in any of the foregoing, and
(iii) past, present, and future causes of action, rights of recovery, and claims for damage, accounting for profits, royalties, or other relief relating, referring or pertaining to any of the foregoing.
1.2 IT Job Bandit retains all rights, title, ownership, and interest in and to the Software and any and all Intellectual Property Rights in and to the software.

1.3 The End User shall be solely responsible for managing access to the Software including protecting passwords from misuse.

If the modified terms are not acceptable to You, Your only recourse is to cease using the Software.
2.0 Use of Data.
2.1 Company data means data maintained within the Software that is confidential and proprietary to the End User (“End User Data”). IT Job Bandit shall take all reasonable precautions (and in any event precautions that are no less than those used to protect its own confidential data) to preserve the confidentiality of the End User Data. The End User agrees that these confidentiality obligations shall not preclude IT Job Bandit from providing consolidated industry statistical reports to its customers as generated from consolidating information using the End User Data and data from other customers on an aggregated and anonymized basis.
IT Job Bandit has no duty or obligation to monitor use of the Software. However, IT Job Bandit reserves the right to monitor the use of the Software electronically from time to time, including for technical, business, or operational purposes, or to disclose any information necessary to satisfy any laws, regulations or other governmental request, or to protect IT Job Bandit or others, as it deems necessary.
3.0 Termination.
3.1 The license is effective until terminated by the End user or IT Job Bandit. The End User and its End-User’s rights under this license will terminate automatically without notice from IT Job Bandit if the End User fails to comply with any term(s) of this license. Upon termination of the license, the End-User shall cease all use of the Software.

5.0 Limitation of Liability.
5.2 General Limitations: You acknowledge and agree that the End-Users’ use of the Software will utilize, in whole or in part, third party networks to transmit communications, which transmissions may be intercepted by other parties or stored, cached, routed, transmitted or received in any jurisdiction, and DAAS cannot guarantee any minimum level regarding actual performance, speed, reliability, availability, use or consistency based on factors depending on the Internet.
