TPS REPAIR: END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
================================================================================
Version 1.4 · Effective 19 September 2026
Copyright © 2026 Sistemas de Computación Accesibles del Noroeste, S.C. All rights reserved.
TPS Repair is commercial software. It is licensed, not sold. This agreement
("EULA") is between Sistemas de Computación Accesibles del Noroeste, S.C.
("SCA", "Licensor", "we" or "us") and the person or legal entity identified
as the licensee ("you" or "Licensee"). Dodo Payments acts as merchant of
record for the purchase transaction; SCA grants and administers the software
license and the time-limited support-and-updates entitlement.
By affirmatively accepting this EULA during the applicable online checkout, or
by installing or using a licensed copy after receiving a durable copy of this
EULA, you agree to its terms. If an individual accepts for an organization,
that individual represents that they have authority to bind it. Mandatory
consumer rights that cannot be waived remain unaffected.
1. LICENSE GRANTED
Subject to successful payment, the applicable Terms of Sale, and this EULA, SCA
grants a perpetual, non-exclusive, non-transferable license for the tier shown
in the purchase record:
COMPANY: INTERNAL USE
One legal entity's internal data, with unlimited authorized
personnel and machines. No client-service rights.
SOLO CONSULTANT
One designated operator acting for the named Licensee, on its
own data and for unlimited clients, on unlimited machines.
The operator's name is recorded in the license. A permanent
replacement may be assigned through support; rotation among
coworkers is not permitted. Additional operators require a
Consultancy upgrade.
CONSULTANCY One legal entity, with multiple authorized staff or contractors
acting on its behalf, on its own data and for unlimited clients,
on unlimited machines. Affiliates and subcontracting businesses
receive no independent rights under this license.
All paid tiers have the same technical capabilities, without paid per-file or
per-record limits. A separate license is required for each legal entity.
Consultant licensees may operate TPS Repair on client machines and deliver
resulting data files. They must have authority to process the client's data.
They may not give clients the licensed executable for independent use.
Independent client use, vendor bundling, OEM distribution, and redistribution
require a separate license or written redistribution agreement. Contact
tpsrep@sca.mx for a custom redistribution licensing quote.
Upgrades for the same Licensee change usage rights only. They do not extend
support/update coverage or grant newer versions. The renewal reference price
becomes the destination tier's reference price accepted at upgrade. A refund
or reversal of an upgrade restores the prior rights and renewal basis; the
upgraded executable must no longer be used under the unwound rights.
SCA does not provide TPS-file repair, migration, recovery, or data-consulting
services through the website. The website and support process do not include a
customer-content upload function. The consultant tiers authorize the
Licensee's own services; it does not make SCA part of those services.
2. OFFLINE OPERATION; NO ACTIVATION
TPS Repair contains no product-activation requirement, does not contact an SCA
server in order to run, has no telemetry, and does not expire. Subject to this
EULA, a licensed version can continue to run without a network connection and
without contacting SCA. Expiration of a support-and-updates period does not by
itself remove hosted access to versions previously validly delivered. SCA may
withdraw a hosted artifact if the underlying license ends or when reasonably
necessary because of a refund or reversal, a security or integrity issue, a
legal requirement, a third-party-rights restriction, a buyer deletion request,
or discontinuation of the hosted redownload service. SCA cannot remotely
disable copies already installed.
3. SUPPORT AND UPDATES ENTITLEMENT
The initial license purchase includes product support and access to eligible
TPS Repair versions and updates during a twelve-month coverage period beginning
on the purchase date and ending on the calendar day immediately before the
first anniversary of that date. The last version validly obtained during the
coverage period remains licensed perpetually under this EULA.
A "TPS Repair Support & Updates Renewal" is an optional, separate, one-time
purchase that extends only the time-limited support-and-updates entitlement. It
is not a renewal, replacement, or extension of the perpetual software license;
it is not a subscription; and it does not renew automatically.
• If a renewal is purchased while coverage remains active, the new
twelve-month period is added after the existing coverage end date so paid
time is not lost.
• If a renewal is purchased after coverage has ended, the new period begins
on the renewal purchase date. It includes the latest generally available
TPS Repair version on that date and eligible versions and updates released
through the end of the new twelve-month period.
• Failure to renew does not disable TPS Repair, revoke an existing perpetual
license, or prevent continued licensed use of the last version validly
obtained.
• While the related perpetual license remains valid and SCA continues
operating the hosted redownload service, expiration of coverage does not by
itself remove access to personalized builds previously validly delivered.
This hosted archive is separate from support and eligibility for new
versions and is subject to the applicable Terms of Sale.
Support during an active coverage period includes delivery, installation,
licensing, and ordinary product-operation questions. Support does not include
data repair, migration, forensic analysis, custom development, validation of
business data, or review of customer content. Support may request only
non-content diagnostic information such as the product version, public license
identifier, Windows version, exact on-screen error text, and a content-free
diagnostic code.
Mandatory security, conformity, update, and remedy obligations that applicable
law does not permit the parties to waive remain unaffected by expiration of a
commercial support-and-updates period.
4. LICENSEE IDENTIFICATION AND PERSONALIZATION
Each licensed build may display:
• the Licensee's confirmed display name or organization/trading name;
• the purchased tier; and
• an SCA-generated public license identifier.
This information may appear in the title bar, About window, and report headers.
SCA does not embed the purchaser's email address, payment-card information, or
raw Dodo order/payment identifier in the executable or reports. You may not
remove, alter, obscure, or falsify the embedded license record.
You are responsible for confirming the spelling and suitability of the display
name before continuing to payment. The display name is not proof that the named
person or entity owns any data processed with the software.
5. RESTRICTIONS AND THIRD-PARTY COMPONENTS
Except where applicable law or an applicable third-party license expressly
allows otherwise, you may not:
(a) redistribute, publish, sell, rent, lease, sublicense, lend, or share a
licensed build or make it available outside the Licensee covered by the
purchased tier;
(b) use a Company-tier license to provide repair, recovery, migration, or
similar services to third parties;
(c) reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble TPS Repair;
(d) modify the program or embedded license record, or attempt to bypass,
defeat, forge, or falsify license identification; or
(e) use TPS Repair in violation of law or without authority to process the
relevant data.
The third-party components identified in the version-specific third-party
notices section of the delivered "TpsRep-legal.txt" file, and in the Open
source licenses view in the program's About window, are governed by their own
licenses. Those licenses control to the extent they grant rights that differ
from this EULA.
6. EVALUATION MODE
An unlicensed copy may run in evaluation mode. Evaluation mode is intended to
help you assess compatibility and the data the software appears able to recover
before purchase. It does not overwrite or modify the original TPS file.
Evaluation results are not a guarantee that every record or field is complete,
correct, recoverable, or suitable for production use. You must inspect and
validate the results that matter to you.
7. DATA HANDLING AND USER RESPONSIBILITIES
TPS Repair processes selected files locally. It does not upload file contents
to SCA. You remain responsible for lawful access to the input data, maintaining
independent backups, preserving original files, selecting appropriate output
locations, testing recovered or migrated output, and deciding whether the
output is fit for use.
Never make TPS Repair, or any recovery tool, the only copy of important data.
Work from copies and preserve the original file and a separate backup until the
output has been independently validated.
8. FUNCTIONAL LIMITS AND MANDATORY RIGHTS
Damaged or structurally incompatible data can be incomplete, internally
inconsistent, or unrecoverable. SCA does not promise that TPS Repair will
recover every file, record, field, key, relationship, memo, blob, or other data
element, or that recovered data will satisfy a particular business, accounting,
regulatory, or evidentiary purpose.
Nothing in this EULA excludes, limits, or replaces any warranty, conformity
obligation, refund, repair, replacement, price reduction, damages remedy, or
other right that applicable law does not permit the parties to waive. Except for
those mandatory rights and the express commitments in this EULA and the Terms
of Sale, TPS Repair is supplied without additional voluntary warranties to the
maximum extent permitted by law.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
For a consumer, SCA's liability is not excluded or limited where applicable law
does not permit exclusion or limitation.
For a Licensee purchasing primarily for business or professional purposes, and
to the maximum extent permitted by law:
(a) SCA is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or
consequential loss, or for loss of profits, revenue, business,
opportunity, goodwill, or anticipated savings; and
(b) SCA's aggregate liability arising from TPS Repair, this EULA, and the
affected transaction is limited to the amount actually paid for the
affected license or support-and-updates renewal, as applicable.
These business limitations do not apply to fraud, wilful misconduct, gross
negligence where it cannot lawfully be limited, death or personal injury where
it cannot lawfully be limited, breach of confidentiality or data-protection
obligations, infringement caused by SCA, or any other liability that applicable
law does not permit SCA to exclude or limit.
10. REFUNDS, REVERSALS, AND TERMINATION
There is no general voluntary fixed-period change-of-mind refund policy.
Refunds and other remedies are available where required by applicable law,
under Dodo Payments' applicable buyer terms, or where Dodo Payments and/or SCA
expressly approve a remedy for non-delivery, lack of conformity, duplicate
payment, or another substantiated issue. The Terms of Sale explain how to
request assistance.
A confirmed full refund, reversal, chargeback, cancellation, or other unwinding
of the original license transaction terminates the related software license and
its support-and-updates entitlement unless SCA confirms otherwise in writing.
SCA may disable the related private buyer page and hosted archives. After that
termination, you must stop using TPS Repair and delete or destroy all licensed
copies under your control.
A confirmed full refund, reversal, chargeback, cancellation, or other unwinding
of a Support & Updates Renewal affects only the renewed entitlement. It does
not terminate the pre-existing perpetual license or the right to continue using
the last version validly obtained before that renewal. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, you must stop using versions first supplied solely under the
unwound renewal. SCA may restore the prior coverage end date and remove hosted
access to versions first supplied solely under that renewal. Builds validly
obtained before the renewal remain governed by the redownload-archive policy.
SCA cannot remotely disable an installed copy.
A partial refund does not by itself terminate a license or entitlement. The
written refund decision and applicable law determine its effect.
The license also ends if you materially breach this EULA and, where cure is
appropriate, do not cure the breach within a reasonable period after notice.
Sections intended by their nature to survive (including restrictions,
responsibility for past use, liability provisions, and governing law) continue
to apply.
11. TRANSFER AND CORPORATE CHANGE
The license may not be transferred to another person or legal entity without
SCA's prior written approval. A merger, reorganization, or sale of substantially
all relevant business assets does not automatically terminate the license, but
the successor must notify SCA and accept this EULA; SCA may require reasonable
evidence of succession and issue a replacement personalized build.
12. LANGUAGE, GOVERNING LAW, AND FORUM
The English and Spanish versions of this EULA are intended to be substantively
equivalent and share the same version number and effective date. For a
transaction concluded in Mexico, the Spanish version governs to the extent of
an inconsistency. Elsewhere, the English version governs unless mandatory law
requires another result.
This EULA is governed by the laws of the United Mexican States, without regard
to conflict-of-law rules. This choice does not deprive a consumer of mandatory
protections or forums available under the law of the consumer's habitual
residence. For business Licensees, disputes are submitted to the competent
courts of Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
13. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY; CHANGES
This EULA, the version of the Terms of Sale accepted at checkout, and any
applicable third-party notices form the agreement concerning the licensed use of
TPS Repair. A purchase receipt or Dodo buyer term governs payment-processing
matters but does not expand the software license.
If a provision is unenforceable, it is modified only to the minimum extent
necessary and the remaining provisions continue in effect. A later EULA does
not retroactively replace the version accepted for an existing perpetual
license unless you affirmatively accept it or a change is required by law; a new
software version or a Support & Updates Renewal may be offered under new terms
disclosed before acceptance.
