(a) The software (including code, embedded software and third party software), documentation, interfaces, content, fonts and any data that came with your HealthKam Application (“Original HealthKam Software”), as may be updated or replaced by feature enhancements, software updates or system restore software provided by VPG Medical (“HealthKam Software Updates”), whether in read only memory, on any other media or in any other form (the Original HealthKam Software and HealthKam Software Updates are collectively referred to as the “HealthKam Software” or HealthKam Application”) are licensed, not sold, to you by VPG Medical, Inc. (“VPG Medical”) for use only under the terms of this License. VPG Medical and its licensors retain ownership of the HealthKam Software itself and reserve all rights not expressly granted to you.

(b) VPG Medical, at its discretion, may make available future HealthKam Software Updates for your VPG Medical application. The HealthKam Software Updates, if any, may not necessarily include all existing software features or new features that VPG Medical releases for newer or other models of HealthKam Application. The terms of this License will govern any HealthKam Software Updates provided by VPG Medical that replace and/or supplement the Original HealthKam Software product, unless such HealthKam Software Update is accompanied by a separate license in which case the terms of that license will govern.

Further, you acknowledge that if you allow or permit others to use an electronic device or computer on which your HealthKam Application is installed, that such application will record video and take photographs of such other user, and attempt to use facial recognition features to recognize such person’s identity.
