GrainSense has developed and/or licensed the measurement technology and related services, and manufactures and/or sells (i) a product which enables customers to measure and analyse the protein and other compounds of a grain with a hand-held measurement device (the "Measurement Device"). GrainSense also provides (ii) value added services through a cloud based software solution (the "Cloud Service") as provided by GrainSense or its Partners from time to time. The Measurement Device and the Cloud Service and possible other services provided by GrainSense are jointly referred hereunder as the "Services".

"You" shall mean the entity or individual contracting hereunder in order to use the GrainSense Measurement Device and/or the Services. By using the Measurement Device and/or the Services You acknowledge and accept these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy (https://www.grainsense.com/faq). GrainSense may process Your personal data for the purposes of providing the Services. More information on how GrainSense processes personal data can be found from the Privacy Policy.

 

1. MEASUREMENT DEVICE LICENSE TERMS

Upon purchasing the GrainSense Measurement Device, GrainSense grants You:

• a limited, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use the Measurement Device; and

• a right to use the results and analyses for your internal purposes.

In order to use the Measurement Device, You must create your own individual account (the "User Account"). Creating the User Account requires an Internet connection. You are responsible for creating and installing the User Account and setting up the Measurement Device to the User Account. When the Measurement Device is set up for the first time, it will be calibrated and basic settings, measurement parameters and available updates will be installed. You are responsible for ensuring that the information you provide when creating the User Account is correct and that You do not share or disclose Your password with others.

Creating and using the User Account and using the Measurement Device without Subscription (as defined in Section 2 below) will not be subject to separate additional fees. All future updates and re-calibrations of the Measurement Device require a paid Subscription. For that reason GrainSense does not guarantee that e.g. all future enhancements, improvements and new calibrations would be available without a paid Subscription.

You must ensure that You use the Measurement Device in accordance with applicable laws and export regulations.

 

2. CLOUD SERVICE SUBSCRIPTION

2.1 Subscription

When You have paid a subscription for the Cloud Service (the "Subscription") the following terms shall apply:
GrainSense shall invoice You for the Cloud Service annually in advance. The paid Subscription begins as soon as the relevant payment has been made by You and the applicable Subscription has been processed by GrainSense. Your Subscription continues until Subscription Termination (see Section 2.2 below). GrainSense reserves the right to adjust the prices or service fees of the Cloud Service from time to time in accordance with the then current price list of GrainSense. GrainSense will use reasonable efforts to inform You of the price or service fee adjustments in advance through the Cloud Service.

The Subscription and the use of the Cloud Service require a compatible smartphone with Internet access and connection which enables collection of location data and a Bluetooth connection. All smartphone models may not be compatible with the Measurement Device and/or the Cloud Service. Upon request, or through Cloud Service, GrainSense will from time to time notify the compatible smartphone models.

The collection and processing of location data is based on Your consent. You may consent to the collection of location data when You start using the Measurement Device or install the Cloud Service application. You may also use the Services without giving consent to the processing of location data. GrainSense recommends that You enable the collection of location data, as without such location data GrainSense is not able to provide You with a map of the results based on Your measurements and as GrainSense will neither be able to maintain and develop all the features of the Services for You. More information on how GrainSense processes Your location data and other personal data can be found from the Privacy Policy (https://www.grainsense.com/faq).

GrainSense may from time to time offer trial Subscriptions. Such Subscriptions are provided in accordance with these Terms of Use unless otherwise notified by GrainSense in writing. GrainSense offers the right to continue using the Cloud Service under the User Account used in such trial Subscription against Your payment of the relevant Subscription Fee.

If you Subscribe as a private individual or consumer, you have the right to cancel the Subscription within 14 days from the start of the Subscription. The notice of cancellation shall be made directly to GrainSense and to the contact details as listed below in these Terms of Use. All such paid Subscription Fees are refunded to You as an individual or consumer. Otherwise all Subscription Fees and other payments made hereunder are non-refundable.

2.2 Cloud Service

Upon Subscription You will receive the ordered value added services for the Measurement Device and you are able to save and utilize the measurement through the Cloud Service with using your smartphone.

GrainSense Cloud Service provides You, for the paid Subscription period, with:

• a right to newest species calibrations depending on your country of registration and Measurement Device model; and

• Data storage, without limiting the number of measurements or amount of data stored through the application.

You may terminate Your Subscription through the Cloud Service or by contacting GrainSense directly. Your Subscription will end after the end of the paid Subscription period.

You may continue using the Cloud Service until the end of the paid Subscription period. Any paid Subscription Fees or other payments are non-refundable.

After the end of the Subscription period, You will not have access to the Cloud Service and You may not access any uploaded measurements or analyses. GrainSense reserves the right to delete all Your data from the Cloud Service four (4) months after the end of the paid Subscription period.
