These terms and conditions ("Terms and Conditions") form a legal agreement between Locometric Ltd (United Kingdom company number 08221034) ("Locometric") and the user of its services ("You or Your").

Locometric reserves the right not to accept any request to undertake a Work placed by You and/or to cancel any Work even after it has been accepted by Locometric. Locometric's policy is that once an order has been placed for a Work it cannot be cancelled by You. Locometric reserves the right to amend these terms and conditions from time to time and new versions of these terms and conditions will be posted on Locometric's web site and will be effective in relation to all orders placed by You after the date that they appear on the Website.  If you do not agree to be bound by these or any future Terms and Conditions, do not use or continue use or access this website or use any of the Works.  It is your responsibility to check changes to the Terms and Conditions. 2. You agree to provide current and accurate information as is sometimes requested by Locometric from time to time by any registration forms on the Website.  You also agree to keep confidential the security of your password and identification, if any. 3. Locometric provides various services from time to time, which may include but are not restricted to licensing floor plan creation software, creating floor plans, hosting web pages and access to Locometric's archive of floor plans. All content on the Website and available through the Service, including designs, text, graphics, pictures, information, applications, software, sound and other files, and apps made available by Locometric on any third party website or service are the property of Locometric or third parties which license such rights to Locometric (the "Locometric Architecture").  No Locometric Architecture, nor any part of it, may be modified, copied, framed, distributed, scraped, posted, used or sold in any form or by any means.  Full details of all services offered by Locometric from time to time and the prices charged for such services are set out on the Locometric web site. 4. Where necessary for the Work Locometric shall grant to You a limited non transferable licence to use the Locometric Architecture accessed via the Website or apps provided by Locometric only. You accept that You have no right, title or interest in or to the copyright or any other intellectual property rights (including without limitation know-how and rights in inventions) subsisting in the Locometric Architecture. The licence to use the Locometric Architecture in the normal course of Your business is subject as follows: a. You agree not to assign, sub-license or otherwise transfer any or all of the rights hereby granted to use the Locometric Architecture. b. Save to the extent that such acts may not lawfully be prevented, You shall not modify, adapt, disassemble, decompile or otherwise reverse engineer any or all of the Locometric Architecture. c. You agree not to use the software for any purpose other than the creation of floor plans for submission to Locometric. d.
