This End-User License Agreement (“EULA”) is a legal agreement between you (either an individual or a single entity) and BOWDACIOUS MEDIA LLC, dba PIXELTOOLS (“PIXELTOOLS”), for the PIXELTOOLS software product(s), which may include associated software components, media, printed materials, and online or electronic documentation (“SOFTWARE PRODUCT”).
By installing, downloading, copying, accessing, or otherwise using the SOFTWARE PRODUCT, you acknowledge and agree that you have read, understand, and accept this EULA in its entirety. Installing or using the SOFTWARE PRODUCT constitutes your full agreement to be bound by these terms. Failure to read or fully understand this EULA does not exempt you from its application or invalidate this agreement.
If you do not agree to the terms of this EULA, do not install, download, or use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT.
The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is protected by copyright laws and international treaties. The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is licensed, not sold.
GRANT OF LICENSE
Installation and Use
PIXELTOOLS grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use up to three (3) copies of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT on computers owned and operated by you, provided each computer is running a validly licensed operating system compatible with the SOFTWARE PRODUCT. Use by more than one individual, or installation on shared systems accessible by multiple individuals, requires an approved multi-seat or enterprise license.
Permitted Use on Commercial Client Work
You may use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT on commercial client work and professional projects, including paid production, post-production, and grading work performed for third-party clients. This permission covers your use of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT as a tool in the course of that work. It does not permit you to productize, resell, redistribute, sublicense, or otherwise commercially exploit the SOFTWARE PRODUCT itself, or any derivative LUT, preset, PowerGrade, or tool built from it, as a standalone product, pack, or offering — see “No Creation of Derivative Commercial Products” below.
Backup Copies
You may make a reasonable number of backup copies for archival purposes only. All backup copies must remain in your exclusive possession and control. It is the responsibility of the licensed user to safeguard these backups and ensure they are not accessed by, shared with, or distributed to any unlicensed user. Backup copies may not be shared, uploaded, or made available to any third party under any circumstances.

Warranty / Compatibility Clarification
PixelTools makes reasonable efforts to ensure compatibility across common computers, GPU configurations, and DaVinci Resolve environments; however, compatibility is not guaranteed. Due to the wide variety of hardware, operating systems, software versions, and user workflows, performance and results may vary.
