LASVIEWER / LEGAL
Terms of Use
These Terms govern the lasviewer.com website, the browser demo and the LasViewer apps — including the licence to use the app, the LasViewer account and the subscription. Payment, renewal, cancellation and refund rules are set out in the separate Subscription Policy. Store-distributed editions are additionally subject to the applicable store’s rules.
1. Operator, definitions and acceptance
The LasViewer website and apps are operated by IE Dmitri Predeyn, Apt. 105, Building 3, 1st Microdistrict, Gldani, Tbilisi, Georgia — referred to below as “the operator” or “we”. LasViewer is the operator’s product name and trade mark, not a separate entity: the same person is responsible for the site, the app and the licence.
You may accept these Terms in two ways. By using the site or submitting the form you accept them for the site and demo, together with the Privacy Policy. When you activate an account or take out a subscription you accept them explicitly, and the service records the version of each accepted document (§10).
If you act for an organisation, you confirm that you may do so. The site and apps are intended for professional and business users; an account and a paid subscription require that the law applying to you lets you enter into a contract — otherwise a parent or guardian acts for you.
2. What these Terms cover and which document prevails
These Terms cover the site and browser demo, the licence to use the LasViewer app, the LasViewer account and the subscription attached to it. Who takes payment and who grants the licence depends on the channel.
| Channel | Takes payment | Grants the licence | Cancellation and refunds |
|---|---|---|---|
| App Store (iPhone, iPad, macOS) | Apple | The operator | Cancelling a subscription and requesting a refund follow Apple’s rules; licence terms in §4 |
| Android direct | Paddle (merchant of record) | The operator | Subscription Policy subscription-v1 and Paddle’s terms |
Where documents conflict, this order applies: mandatory provisions of applicable law; the store’s rules for distribution and payment made through that store; the Subscription Policy for payment, renewal, cancellation and refunds; these Terms; the Privacy Policy for personal data. The Subscription Policy forms part of these Terms and, within its own subject matter, prevails over their general provisions. In the same way, the Privacy Policy prevails over these Terms in everything concerning the processing of personal data.
3. Site and demo
The site provides product information and a browser viewer containing only prepared demonstration point clouds selected by LasViewer. It does not accept uploads of your own project files. The demo is illustrative and may differ from the native app.
4. Application licence
The operator grants you a limited, non-exclusive and non-transferable licence to use the LasViewer app on your devices — for personal and work purposes, including commercial ones, with no extra charge for professional use.
The licence lasts while an active subscription or another granted right, including a trial, is in force. The number of devices depends on the channel: Android direct allows up to two devices active at a time per account, and a device may be deactivated and replaced; App Store editions follow Apple ID and Apple Family Sharing rules.
Your account is personal: do not transfer it to anyone else and do not share it.
You must not reverse engineer, decompile or modify the app beyond the limits applicable law expressly allows; circumvent or disable licence checks; resell, rent out or provide the app to third parties as a service; or remove rights notices.
The licence may be ended only on the grounds in §14.
Additional terms for App Store editions
For an app obtained from the App Store, the following terms required by Apple also apply.
- These Terms are between you and the operator, not Apple; the operator alone is responsible for the app and its content.
- The licence is non-transferable and permits use of the app on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Apple Media Services usage rules; access through Family Sharing and Apple volume purchasing is allowed.
- The operator provides all maintenance and support for the app; Apple has no such obligation.
- The operator is responsible for any warranty for the app. If the app fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price of the app to you; Apple has no other warranty obligation.
- The operator, not Apple, is responsible for addressing your claims and third-party claims relating to the app — including product liability, failure to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer-protection or privacy claims.
- The operator is responsible for investigating, defending and settling any third-party claim that the app infringes intellectual property rights.
- You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated by it as supporting terrorism, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- The operator’s name and address for questions and complaints are given in §1; the contact address is [email protected].
- When using the app you must comply with any applicable third-party terms of agreement.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
5. LasViewer account (Android direct)
An account is created from a verified email address. There is no password, so keeping access to your mailbox is your responsibility. Devices are bound by an installation public key; the device list and deactivation are available in the app.
Account deletion is requested by email as described in the Privacy Policy. App Store purchases do not need a LasViewer account.
6. Your data and projects
Point clouds, projects, coordinates and measurements are processed on your device. The operator does not receive them through the app or the site: the licensing service accepts only account records and device proofs, and the browser demo accepts no uploads. What is transmitted is listed in the Privacy Policy.
You keep the rights to your source data and your results. The operator acquires no rights in them, claims no ownership of them and asks for no licence to use them.
Ending a subscription does not delete your files: they remain on your device and stay reachable through your device’s file manager, and the operator neither deletes them nor has access to them. Without an active subscription, however, viewing and processing features in the app are unavailable, including opening projects you created earlier.
Backing up your data is your responsibility.
7. Permitted use
You may view the public pages and use the demo to evaluate the product. You must not:
- collect site content automatically against robots.txt;
- bypass rate limits or generate load that disrupts other users;
- run load testing or penetration testing without our written permission;
- circumvent security controls or licence checks;
- distribute malicious code;
- break the law or infringe anyone’s rights.
Reporting a vulnerability in good faith to [email protected] does not breach this section, provided the research involved no data damage, no access to other users’ data, no disclosure of it and no demand for payment to stay silent.
8. Intellectual property
LasViewer, its interface, code, text, graphics and prepared demonstration data are owned by the operator or its licensors and are protected by applicable law. For the public site you receive a limited, revocable and non-exclusive right to use it under these Terms; the licence to use the app is set out in §4. No ownership is transferred.
9. Contact form
You must provide accurate information and must not submit confidential project data, unlawful content or another person’s personal information without authority. Marketing messages are sent only when the separate optional consent is selected and may be stopped at any time.
10. Subscription, payment and seller
For Android direct, Paddle is the merchant of record and the seller of the transaction: it takes payment, calculates taxes, issues receipts and handles transaction-related enquiries under its own terms. For App Store editions Apple is the seller. In both cases the licence to use the app is granted by the operator.
Android direct account and licence requests are handled by LasViewer’s Cloudflare-hosted licensing service; point clouds and project data are not sent to it. Third-party availability is outside our control.
Subscription, renewal, cancellation and refund rules are set out in the Subscription / Refund / Cancellation Policy, version subscription-v1. On activation the service records the accepted versions of these Terms terms-v4 and the Privacy Policy privacy-v4; at checkout it additionally records the version of the Subscription Policy subscription-v1.
11. Availability and changes
We may modify, suspend or discontinue site features, the browser demo and demonstration datasets. We aim for accurate information but do not promise uninterrupted, error-free or permanently available site access.
This section does not apply to a paid subscription: materially reducing functionality within a paid period is governed by the Subscription Policy and by your mandatory rights.
Announced platforms, features and release dates may change until released.
12. Disclaimer
The site and demo are provided “as is” and “as available”.
The software is provided “as is” and “as available”; the operator does not warrant that it is free of errors or that it will run without interruption.
Measurement results are for reference: verify critical values by independent means. The site, the demo and the app are not surveying, engineering, safety or legal advice and must not be the sole basis for professional or safety-critical decisions.
Mandatory consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded remain unaffected.
13. Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the operator is not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss.
The operator’s aggregate liability does not exceed the amount you actually paid for the relevant service in the twelve months before the event; for free use — the site, the demo and the trial — it is nil.
These limits do not apply to wilful misconduct, gross negligence, fraud, death or personal injury, or to any liability whose limitation applicable law prohibits.
14. Suspension and termination
We may restrict or end access if these Terms are breached; in cases of fraud, trial abuse or a final chargeback; where the law or store rules require it; and where it is reasonably necessary to protect the service and other users. We give notice in advance where that is possible and lawful.
You may stop using the service at any time; cancelling a subscription is described in the Subscription Policy.
After termination, the provisions on intellectual property, your data, disclaimers, liability and governing law continue to apply.
15. Governing rules and contact
These Terms are governed by the law of Georgia, without removing any mandatory protection available to you under the law of your residence. Courts with jurisdiction under applicable law may hear disputes. Contact [email protected] before starting a formal dispute so we can try to resolve it.
