EASY TO READ LICENSING POLICY
The full license agreement may be
read by clicking on the image above. An easy to read set of terms is as follows:
Website Software – The website may be used by anyone, without cost. However, the website requires manual operation. Each set of data must be hand entered, the results printed out, and possibly re-entered into other software like Microsoft Excel.
SUBSCRIBER SOFTWARE
Only subscribers have full access to www.FinancialWonder.com/FWExcel.aspx.
This webpage accepts data feeds from Microsoft Excel, Internet Explorer, other third-party applications, and custom-built applications. Instead of the manual effort required to process large numbers of calculations through the website software, this process allows subscriber to store their requests in client applications like Microsoft Excel, and send them to this webpage for processing. The results are returned directly into Microsoft Excel. To the user, it may appear as if Financial Wonder Formulas have been built into Microsoft Excel.
For example, many companies have built custom Microsoft Excel templates which they use to perform budgets, forecasts, and projections. By integrating our Microsoft Excel template, you can achieve accurate monthly spreading, and accurate monthly cash flow forecasts.
Subscribers will be provided with the unlock code to the Microsoft Excel macro template. Subscribers are free to modify the code, or build their own macro application. These macros provide a data feed to www.FinancialWonder.com/FWExcel.aspx, which performs all calculations, and returns results in the form of an HTML table. Microsoft Excel’s Web Query feature provides security and logic to perform this transaction. This transaction is as safe as viewing an HTML page through Internet Explorer, only instead of displaying the results in a web page, the results are imported into Microsoft Excel. BrainChild Software does NOT provide or require any client software installation.
LICENSED USER
You agree to pay BrainChild or its suppliers a license fee for each user who will be performing calculations during the subscription period. For full access, www.FinancialWonder.com/FWExcel.aspx requires a license number, in the form of a company and a department number (referred to as the ‘license number’). BrainChild provides a minimum of 2 user licenses, so that 2 people can be fully licensed. You may provide the results of your work to as many people as you chose. However, only licensed identified individuals can provide data feeds to www.FinancialWonder.com/FWExcel.aspx using a license number.
IMPORTANT LICENSING NOTE
It is the subscriber’s responsibility to identify those licensed users for their own records.
Subscribers are NOT permitted to change the identity of licensed users every few seconds, or for
that matter every few days. We understand that new employees may replace former employees, and
the need for Financial Wonder Formulas may shift within a department as projects start and
complete. Under these rules, subscriber’s may shift the identity of the licensed users,
similar to the common procedure of uninstalling commercial software and re-installing on
another’s computer, however, since our service is hosted, this common software procedure cannot
be used. But the principle of purchasing a sufficient number of licenses to allow those who
will be using the software are using licensed copies still prevails.
If we see consistent shifting of IP addresses, and an unlikely
pattern of usage, your account will be suspended. To avoid this, we provide deep discounts for
multiple licenses. If you have questions concerning this, please contact us. We ask that you be
reasonable in your licensing of our service. BrainChild will be the ultimate decider concerning
reasonableness. If necessary, BrainChild maintains the right to cancel any subscription that we
feel is not complying with our licensing provisions, and the remaining portion of the
subscription fee will be refunded.
CUSTOM APPLICATION LICENSING NOTE
Licensing allows subscribers to include access to www.FinancialWonder.com/FWExcel.aspx into their custom application, which may be hosted from one computer. Our licensing relates to end-users, not the number of computers actually submitting requests to our website. If one computer performs requests for 100 end-users, then licensing requires 100 licenses. By the same logic, if 2 end-users have 3 computers each, then 2 licenses are sufficient.
DATA PRIVACY
BrainChild Software does NOT store the data that you send to wwwFinancialWonder.com/FWExcel.aspx, and we do NOT store the results of your calculations. Therefore, if your account numbers were ever misused, the perpetrators would be unable to obtain any information on your account, because we do not store your data. We do reserve the right to track the IP address of the source of the request as a check on licensing, and we reserve the right to summarize the number of calculations requested and the method selected to help understand our subscriber’s needs to enhance our offerings.
