NoMachine Services Agreement
The NoMachine Services Agreement (the "Terms" or "Agreement"), govern the use of and access to the different services offered by NoMachine S.à r.l. ("NoMachine", "us", "we" or "our") through our website (the "Site"), as well as all documentation and content (the "Materials") associated with our services, and the NoMachine Network service (collectively referred to as the "Services").
For the avoidance of doubt, the Agreement governs your access to and use of the Services through any means or channels, including any access or use in connection with the NoMachine for Mobile App and the NoMachine Software (collectively referred to as the "Software"). Use of the Software is governed by its own End User License Agreement (and during installation) which is accepted separately to the Terms herein.
1. ACCEPTANCE By using and/or accessing the Services, you are agreeing on behalf of yourself or those you represent ("you", "your") to comply with and to be legally bound by these Terms in their entirety, including to be responsible for any charges arising from your use of the Services. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of your employer or another entity, you represent and warrant that: (i) you have full legal authority to bind your employer or such entity to the Agreement; (ii) you have read and understand the Agreement; and (iii) you agree and consent to the Agreement on behalf of the party that you represent. By creating an account for using our Services, you agree that the registration information you have provided is accurate and complete. Some sections of these Terms may not apply to your specific use of the Services. Thus, if you do not agree with any part of the Agreement applicable to you, you may not use our Services.
2. MODIFICATION NoMachine may update these Terms from time to time without notice. Unless it is otherwise stated by us, each update of the Terms comes into force as of the moment the amended Terms are published on the Site. If you continue to use the Services after these changes take effect, then you agree and consent to the revised Terms. The current version of the Terms is available on the Site. You understand and agree that it is your obligation to review these Terms from time to time in order to stay informed on current rules and obligations. Notification on any core changes to the Terms will be provided to you through an email message sent to the email address you provide to us, and/or banners or pop-up messages posted on the Site, and/or on your Account.
3. YOUR ACCOUNT During the creation of a NoMachine Account ("Account"), NoMachine may collect some personal information, such as your name, email address and billing information ("Account Data"). We only collect such information as is strictly necessary for the proper delivery of the Services. All Account Data provided by you must be current, complete, and accurate, and you are solely responsible for updating the Account Data as necessary. NoMachine may terminate all rights to access, receive, use the Services if (i) NoMachine discovers that any of your Account Data is incomplete, inaccurate, or not current, or (ii) NoMachine determines, at its sole discretion, that you are not the appropriate user of the Services.
3.1. Passwords. You understand that it is your responsibility to keep your Account information confidential and secure. You are solely responsible for all activity on your Account. If you ever discover or suspect that someone has accessed your Account without your authorization, or that your password has been compromised, you are advised to inform us immediately so that we can take appropriate action.
4. DATA PROTECTION When accessing and using the Services, including the Network Service, provided by NoMachine hereunder, it may be possible for you to exchange limited personal data with NoMachine such as IP addresses, login times, session durations and other activity logs. We only collect such information as is strictly necessary for the proper delivery of the Services and for statistical and optimization purposes. NoMachine complies with applicable data protection laws and collects, processes and uses personal data in its function as a data controller as set out and in accordance with the relevant Privacy Notice available at https://www.nomachine.com/privacy-policy.
5. NOMACHINE NETWORK NoMachine Network (the "Network Service") is an additional and optional service we provide through your NoMachine Account. The Network Service uses its own secure protocol and servers ("relay servers"') to establish a connection between a NoMachine Network client and a NoMachine Network-enabled machine (with a NoMachine server installed there). NoMachine Network clients are any of the users' devices with NoMachine installed and online on the NoMachine Network.
5.1 Using NoMachine Network. The Network Service lets NoMachine users publish computers on NoMachine Network, so that other NoMachine users can remotely connect to these computers. Whilst a NoMachine Account is not required to publish computers on NoMachine Network, in order to connect to computers using the Network Service, you must be logged in to the Network Service with your NoMachine Account on a given device. By using the Network service, you also agree to the terms herein.
6. SUPPORT SERVICES Logging in with your account on the Website gives you access to the User Area from which you can open support enquiries if you are in possession of a valid Network and/or Software Subscription. The specific terms and scope of services related to the Support Services are separate to these Terms and are available at: https://nomachine.com/licensing.
7. DELETING YOUR ACCOUNT You may delete your Account for any reason at any time. Deleting your account means all data will be removed, including billing information, 2FA device information and any other data which our Services may allow you to insert such as information related to Support Enquiries. If a Subscription is active when deleting your account, no refunds or credits shall be issued for partial months, upgrade/downgrades, nonuse, or termination of account due to violations of the Terms and Conditions herein. 8. NOMACHINE 2FA By creating an Account, you are automatically granted access to our proprietary in-built two-factor authentication service ("NoMachine 2FA"). This is an optional service we provide and you are not obligated to use it. It protects access to your Account and connections to your remote desktop. These connections can be any connections made over the Network Service or traditional connections over-IP. You can use NoMachine 2FA in conjunction with any of the Software products.
8.1. Enabling 2FA. NoMachine 2FA requires you to have at least one mobile device on which you have installed the NoMachine App for Mobile so that you can receive push notifications and accept or deny Account logins or connections to a remote computer. In enabling 2FA for your account, you will be issued with a recovery code. Please ensure that you store the recovery code provided somewhere safe as this will be required to access your Account if you forget your primary password and lose your 2FA device. You will not be able to access your account if you forget your primary password and the recovery code. You can make a special request to NoMachine (by using the "Lost recovery code" service in the software GUI) to disable the 2FA service, so that you can use the Reset Password service to continue with the procedure to recover your account.
9. NOMACHINE CONTENT Usage of any material which is subject to NoMachine intellectual property rights, "NoMachine Content", is prohibited unless you have been provided with explicit written consent by NoMachine. Nothing contained within or related to the Services or in these Terms shall be construed as granting, by implication or otherwise, any license or right to any of NoMachine’s intellectual property rights.
