2.1 Grant. During the Term, Provider grants Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use the Service for the scope stated in the Order Form; all other use is not permissible.
2.2 Accounts. Seats are individual; sharing credentials is prohibited. Customer is responsible for user activity and configuration.
3.1 Modelled estimates. The Service provides modelled estimates/decision-support and may contain errors.
3.2 Higher-risk uses. The Service is not designed for safety-critical or life/environment-protection decisions.
3.3 Customer and users must NOT: (a) present Outputs as final engineering, safety-critical, or code/permit-compliant designs without professional review; (b) use Outputs as the sole basis for investment, procurement, or decisions; (c) state or imply endorsement/certification by Provider, authorities, or standards bodies; (d) remove/obscure assumptions, limitations, version identifiers, or disclaimers; (e) resell, sublicense, or provide Outputs as a commercial service unless the Order Form expressly permits it; (f) reverse-engineer, bypass usage limits, or use the Service unlawfully; (h) copy or otherwise reproduce.
3.4 The Provider is entitled to update the Service at any time without advance notice to the Customer.
4.1 Ownership. Customer retains all rights in Customer Data, educational materials, and content created via the Service.
4.2 License to host. Customer grants Provider a non-exclusive license to host/process Customer Data solely to deliver, secure, and improve the Service; Provider may use aggregated/de-identified analytics.
4.3 Confidentiality. Each party must protect the other’s Confidential Information with reasonable care.
4.4 Data Region. Provider stores and primarily processes Customer Data within the Data Region indicated in the Order Form (e.g., CHE/EU). Replication may occur within the selected region for resiliency. Transient remote support access and approved subprocessors under valid transfer mechanisms do not change the Data Region.
4.5 DPA & Marketing. If Provider processes personal data for Customer, the Data Processing Addendum (DPA) referenced or attached is incorporated (EU GDPR/Swiss FADP baseline; PDPA notices for SG as applicable). Marketing emails are opt-in; users may unsubscribe at any time. Service/transactional emails are separate.
5.1 Limits. Usage is subject to the Resource Entitlements in the Order Form (compute, storage, concurrency, runtime, egress, API, etc.).
5.2 Metering. Provider meters usage (e.g., vCPU/GPU-hours, storage GiB, egress, API calls). Metering records are conclusive absent manifest error.
5.3 Enforcement. Provider may throttle, queue, or terminate jobs to enforce limits, fair use, and system stability. If overages are allowed in the Order Form, they are billed at the stated rates; otherwise, jobs/writes beyond Limits are blocked.
5.4 Retention & Deletion. Post-termination retention follows the Order Form. After the retention window (if any), Provider may delete Customer Data from active systems and backups per its standard cycle.
6.1 Service IP. The Service and documentation are owned by Provider or its licensors; no rights are granted except as explicitly set out herein.
6.2 Open Source. CEA-4 Core (see repository cited in the Order Form/Docs) is MIT-licensed; open-source notices apply to those components. CEA-4 Pro features are proprietary and licensed under these Terms.
6.3 Feedback. Provider may use suggestions/feedback without restriction.
7.1 Educational/decision-support. The Service is intended for modelling and support tool based on certain assumptions only. Any Outputs require professional review by the Customer.
7.2 The Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind (including accuracy, fitness, merchantability, non-infringement, or uninterrupted availability).
7.3 The Customer alone is responsible for any use of the Outputs.
7.4 No SLA applies unless separately agreed in writing.

9.2 By Provider (IP). Provider will defend Customer against third-party claims that the Service as provided infringes IP rights and will pay finally awarded damages, provided Customer promptly notifies Provider and cooperates.
