Terms and License Agreement

1. Product and license

The ContractNest Annual License grants the licensed company or workspace named in the order a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to install and use ContractNest on Windows and macOS for twelve months, for any number of its own authorised users. Activation on up to 25 devices per license is included as fair use; more devices require our agreement. The software is licensed, not sold.

2. Price and payment

The price is €47.88 per year (equivalent to €3.99 per month), payable in full in advance, plus VAT where applicable as shown on the order. Payment is made by bank transfer to the account given in the payment instructions, quoting the order number, or by a one-time card payment where offered. The license is issued after the seller has confirmed receipt of the full payment. A payment reference or receipt sent by the customer does not by itself constitute confirmation.

3. No automatic renewal

The license does not renew automatically and no recurring payment is taken. To continue editing after the expiry date, the customer places a renewal order and pays it. If the renewal payment is confirmed on or before the expiry date, the new twelve-month period is added to the current expiry date. If it is confirmed after expiry, the new period starts on the date the payment is confirmed; the lapsed time is not backdated.

4. Activation period and term

The twelve-month term begins on first activation. The license must be activated within 90 days of being issued; if it is not, the term begins automatically on the 90th day. The license is valid until the end of the day before the first anniversary of its start date (UTC). Calendar-aware rules apply: a term starting on 29 February ends on 27 February of the following year.

5. Trial

ContractNest can be used free of charge for 30 days before purchase. After the trial, the software becomes read-only until a license is activated.

6. After expiry

When a license expires, ContractNest continues to open in read-only mode. The customer's data is not deleted; contracts remain viewable, attachments downloadable and data exportable. Editing is unavailable until the license is renewed.

7. Updates and support

Updates released during the active license period are included. Support is provided by email on working days.

8. Right of withdrawal (consumers)

Consumers in the European Union may withdraw from the purchase within 14 days of the contract without giving a reason, by email to the seller. If the customer expressly requests delivery of the license before the end of the withdrawal period and acknowledges that the right of withdrawal is lost once the license has been activated, the right of withdrawal ends at activation. Refunds are made using the original payment method. A refunded license is revoked; a refunded renewal removes the renewed period.

9. Revocation

The seller may suspend or revoke a license in case of non-payment, chargeback, refund, or material breach of this agreement (for example sharing the activation key outside the licensed company). Revocation is communicated to the customer. Installations that are offline learn of a revocation the next time they connect.

10. Customer data

Contract data and documents are stored on the customer's own devices. The customer is responsible for backups. See the Privacy Policy for the limited data processed for ordering and licensing.

11. Liability

ContractNest is a planning and reminder tool. Reminders depend on the software running and on correct data entry; calculated dates and financial figures are aids, not legal or accounting advice. To the extent permitted by law, the seller's liability is limited to the license fee paid for the current period, except for intent, gross negligence and injury to life, body or health.

12. Final provisions

The law of the seller's country of establishment applies, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protection rules of the customer's country of residence.

These terms must be reviewed by the seller's legal adviser before going live.
