01 / Software License & Community Status
This document governs the usage of the "Zidro Solutions" Add-In for Autodesk® Inventor®. The Software is currently distributed as a free "Community Version". It is inherently a work-in-progress and may contain bugs, errors, or inaccuracies. By deploying or executing the software, you acknowledge that your use is at your sole risk.
CRITICAL SECURITY RESTRICTION: Reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling, or attempting to bypass code obfuscation, licensing nodes, and security mechanisms of this Software is strictly prohibited. You may not redistribute, resell, or modify the software for commercial purposes without explicit written consent from the Publisher.
02 / CAD Data & Intellectual Property Protection
The Zidro Solutions software operates strictly on local execution threads. The Add-In DOES NOT collect, capture, mirror, transmit, or cache your 3D CAD models, part files (.ipt), assembly trees (.iam), drawing reference structures (.idw/.dwg), or proprietary project metadata. All engineering assets remain bound exclusively within your localized hardware or internal corporate server environment.
03 / Total Disclaimer of Liability (Absolute Zero Clause)
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE PUBLISHER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF THE ADD-IN WILL BE ERROR-FREE. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ZIDRO SOLUTIONS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIMS, DAMAGES, OR LIABILITIES ARISING FROM THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE.
This total exclusion of liability includes, but is not limited to:
- Physical or Hardware Damage: System crashes, RAM overloads, hardware failure, or computer damage resulting from performance-intensive operations (e.g., Performance Analyzer).
- Manufacturing & Financial Loss: Wasted raw materials, ruined CNC/laser cutting operations, or procurement errors resulting from incorrectly generated DXF files, PDFs, or Excel BOMs.
- Project Corruption: Loss, corruption, or unrecoverable alteration of .ipt, .iam, or .idw/.dwg files during bulk replacement, automated drilling, or topological cleanup operations.
04 / Engineer's Duty of Verification
The Software is an automation tool designed to assist, not replace, professional engineering judgment. The user bears absolute and final responsibility for reviewing, verifying, and validating all output files (including but not limited to DXF flat patterns, generated 2D drawings, exported Bill of Materials, and mass-replaced components) before submitting them to production, procurement, or clients.
05 / Trademarks & Third-Party Software
Autodesk, the Autodesk logo, and Autodesk Inventor are registered trademarks or trademarks of Autodesk, Inc. Zidro Solutions is an independent third-party add-in and is not authorized, endorsed, sponsored, or officially affiliated with Autodesk, Inc.
This Software utilizes external open-source libraries provided under the MIT License, including ClosedXML, DocumentFormat.OpenXml, ExcelNumberFormat, PdfSharp, SixLabors.Fonts, RBush, and Microsoft.Extensions. The Software is provided "AS IS", without warranty of any kind.
06 / Data Processing & Future Transits (Version Lifecycle)
To guarantee system integrity, the software executes non-intrusive operations via external internet connectivity, strictly limited to an Autodesk Entitlement API Handshake to query app validation states. No background telemetry or proprietary CAD data is collected.
Additionally, the software utilizes a fully localized file-based counter to track usage frequency. This counter operates entirely offline within your local environment and is used solely to occasionally prompt the User to leave a product review or feedback survey. No personal tracking or usage patterns are transmitted externally during this process.
The current free Community Version model is strictly temporary and non-perpetual. The Publisher reserves the right, at their sole discretion, to terminate, deactivate, or render inoperable this specific Community Version at any time, without prior notice or liability for business interruption. To maintain continuity of work after this version lifecycle expires, the user will be required to migrate to the official, commercial (paid) version of the Software.
For any data-related inquiries or to exercise your GDPR rights regarding standard web forms, contact the Publisher via the official channels.
07 / Support Guidelines & License Termination
This free Community Version license does not entitle the User to any guaranteed technical support, dedicated bug fixes, or performance updates. Any troubleshooting assistance or updates provided by the Publisher are done strictly at their own discretion.
This license is effective until terminated. Your rights under this EULA will terminate automatically and immediately without notice if you fail to comply with any of its terms (e.g., attempting to reverse engineer or decompile the application). Upon termination, you must cease all use of the Add-In and completely remove it from your computing environments.
08 / Governing Law & Forum
This Agreement shall be interpreted, governed, and construed exclusively by the laws of Poland, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal challenges, disputes, or structural claims arising from this deployment architecture must be brought forward solely and exclusively in the competent courts located in Poland.
