Terms & Conditions
OBJECT OF THE AGREEMENT
In order to use simulationHub’s Autonomous HVAC CFD software Beta, you have to ACCEPT these Terms of use.
simulationHub reserves the right at any time to change the terms, conditions, notices under which its services are provided. It is your responsibility to refer to and comply with these updated terms and conditions upon accessing the site. Your continued use of simulationHub after such changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of these terms and conditions as modified.
If and when simulationHub releases a commercial version of the Software, simulationHub will notify you via email to your registered email address and you will be required to accept new terms of Software before you can use the commercial version.
The Software that simulationHub provides is used to simulate physical processes using data that the Customer uploads in an Account the Customer creates. These data are composed of various parameters, HVAC design, Project site location, Building Information data, settings, and other necessary information.
DATA NECESSARY FOR USE
simulationHub uses a user account (hereinafter: Account) to record the data necessary and ensures that the Customer can use the Software through the Account.
In order to be able to use the Autonomous HVAC CFD software, the Customer shall personally specify the data necessary to run a simulation and review its completeness and correctness. (These data include, inter alia,.) HVAC design that includes supply air conditions, supply-return locations, Building Information Model that includes floor plan, seating arrangement, construction materials, numeric settings, etc. This listing can only be exemplary.
The Customer is solely responsible for the correctness and completeness of the data transmitted by the Customer and the modeling of the technical system. The Software can only perform a calculation correctly using completely transmitted and correct data. simulationHub, therefore, assumes no liability for the correctness of the calculated results with regard to the process to be simulated.
The Customer can access the data that he has loaded into his account at any time and can access the results obtained by the use of the simulationHub Software at any time. If simulationHub would be temporarily unable to provide these data and results for technical reasons, then simulationHub agrees to remedy the malfunction promptly. This excludes events of force majeure.
PRIVACY
simulationHub does not share your personal information, including email address, with any third party, except as required by law, or as is necessary to fulfill its obligations under these Terms. simulationHub reserves the right to collect anonymous statistics and bug reports, to improve the quality of the product.
