Massive end-user license agreement

Last updated: November 10, 2023  section 4 removed reference to coinmining as we no longer perform this function, and was changed to explain why the Massive Engine is added to the Microsoft Firewalls Exlusion list.

‍

1. Introduction. This end-user license agreement (“EULA”) sets forth the terms under which Massive Computing, Inc. (“Massive” or “We”) shall grant you (“You”) a license to install and operate software provided to you by Massive (“Massive Software”, as further defined in Section 2.3 below) on computers and mobile devices that you own and control (“Devices”). You may operate Massive Software only to perform some of the functions of the software, features, content, or services monetized by computing resources (“Service”, as further defined in Section 2.4) that the third party provides You with (“Application Owner”, as further defined in Section 2.1).

‍

When Massive Software is installed on your Devices, it shall use your computing resources, possibly including your central processing unit, graphics processing unit, random-access memory, storage, bandwidth, and electricity (“Computing Resources”), to engage in cryptocurrency mining or other productive activities. Massive Software has no need to access any personally-identifiable information about You (“PII”) and shall not do so. The financial objective of these activities shall be to generate cryptocurrency-mining or other payments that We shall capture and share with the Application Owner, some of which the Application Owner shall use to fund its provisioning of your free access to the Service (“Compensation”) in consideration of your contribution of Computing Resources to this endeavor. Massive Software aims to use Computing Resources in a manner that is imperceptible to You while You are using your Devices. You expressly authorize Massive to use your Computing Resources in the manner described in this EULA and You understand that You will be responsible for any incremental electricity costs that You incur as a result of such use.

‍

You may terminate your operation of Massive Software and this EULA at any time by uninstalling the instances of Massive Software installed on your Devices.

We urge You to periodically review the version of the EULA on our website to confirm that it is acceptable to You.
