VECTRA — END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT (EULA)
Last Updated: 24 July 2026 Licensor: Samuel Zimmermann, trading as “Parandroid”, Emmausstr. 7, 04318 Leipzig, Germany — a sole proprietor (Einzelunternehmer) (“Licensor“, “we”, “us”) Product: VECTRA software synthesizer and its components, including the Genesis feature (“the Software“)
IMPORTANT — READ CAREFULLY BEFORE DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, OR USING THIS SOFTWARE.
This End User License Agreement (“Agreement“) is a legal agreement between you (“Licensee“, “you”) and the Licensor. By downloading, installing, activating, or using the Software, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not download, install, activate, or use the Software.
0. DEFINITIONS
- “Genesis” — the natural-language sound-generation feature of the Software, which produces editable synthesizer presets from text prompts and which is an online-enabled service.
- “Interaction Data” — the pseudonymous data generated when you use Genesis, as described in Section 5, including the text prompts you enter, the generated candidates, your preview/accept choices, your by-ear parameter refinements, and save outcomes.
- “Derived Models” — any machine-learning models, weights, datasets, embeddings, aggregates, statistics, or other materials that we create, train, or derive using Interaction Data.
- “Pre-Release Build” — any pre-release, public-beta, or “Nightly Build” version of the Software made available for testing or feedback purposes.
1. DISCLAIMER & LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
The Software is provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE.” No software is entirely free of defects; you acknowledge that the Software may contain errors and that we do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation.
A. NO WARRANTY. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Licensor expressly disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties; to that extent the above exclusions may not apply to you, and nothing in this Agreement limits rights that cannot be limited under mandatory applicable law.
B. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Licensor be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, corruption of project files, loss of profits, or business interruption, arising out of or related to the Software or this Agreement, even if advised of the possibility. The Licensor’s total aggregate liability for direct damages shall not exceed the amount you actually paid for the Software in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim. Nothing herein excludes liability for fraud, willful misconduct, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any liability that cannot be excluded under mandatory applicable law.
C. USER RESPONSIBILITY. You are solely responsible for backing up your data and projects before using the Software.
2. GRANT OF LICENSE
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, the Licensor grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Software on systems owned or controlled by you, consistent with the edition and entitlements you have acquired.
Content Rights. Where your edition includes wavetables, presets, samples, or DSP algorithms, you may use the audio output you create with them in your musical productions royalty-free. Genesis-generated presets remain subject to the entitlements of your edition.
3. RESTRICTIONS
You may not, and may not permit others to: (a) reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law; (b) resell, sublicense, rent, share, or redistribute the Software, license keys, or any assets labeled “Exclusive”; (c) circumvent, disable, or interfere with any licensing, entitlement, metering, or security mechanism, including the Genesis access and quota controls; (d) use automated means to generate, scrape, or extract content or data from the Software at scale, or otherwise abuse the Genesis service; or (e) use the Software in violation of applicable law.
4. PRE-RELEASE / NIGHTLY BUILDS
The Licensor may provide optional Pre-Release Builds, including experimental updates (“Nightly Builds“). These are untested, provided for feedback purposes only, may be unstable, and may not be backward compatible with prior save states. Use Nightly Builds at your own risk.
5. GENESIS ONLINE FEATURE & DATA PROCESSING
5.1 Genesis is an online-enabled service. Genesis improves over time by learning from how musicians actually use it. Processing of Interaction Data is an integral and necessary part of providing the Genesis feature. Genesis becomes more capable as it is used; your participation helps train and improve Genesis for the whole VECTRA ecosystem.
5.2 What we process. When you use Genesis, the Software transmits pseudonymous Interaction Data to us, which may include: the text prompt you type into Genesis; the generated candidate presets and their parameters; your preview, accept, and save events; and your parameter refinements (the edits you make to a generated sound). Each upload is associated with a pseudonymous identifier and your license entitlement context.
5.3 What we do NOT collect. Genesis Interaction Data does not intentionally include: saved preset names, raw audio, local file paths, operating-system usernames, email addresses, license keys, or raw hardware identifiers.
5.4 Purpose and lawful basis. We process Interaction Data to operate, secure, protect, debug, improve, and train and develop Genesis and related VECTRA products. We rely on the processing being necessary to provide the Genesis service you have requested (performance of this Agreement) and on our legitimate interest in improving our products, balanced against your rights. We do not sell Interaction Data.
5.5 Participation requirement and withdrawal. Because data processing is integral to Genesis, using Genesis requires this processing. You may withdraw at any time by disabling Genesis participation in the Software’s settings; doing so will lock the Genesis feature and stop further uploads from your installation. Withdrawal is prospective only and does not affect (a) the lawfulness of processing already carried out, or (b) Interaction Data already collected, aggregated, or incorporated into Derived Models. You retain the data-subject rights described in our Privacy Policy (Section 5.9).
5.6 LICENSE TO INTERACTION DATA; OWNERSHIP OF DERIVED MODELS. You grant the Licensor a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, analyze, create derivative works from, and otherwise use the Interaction Data for any purpose connected with operating and improving our products, including training, developing, and commercializing machine-learning models and other Derived Models. As between you and the Licensor, the Licensor exclusively owns all Derived Models and all intellectual property rights in them. This Section 5.6 survives termination of this Agreement and survives your withdrawal under Section 5.5. You represent that you have the rights necessary to grant this license for the prompts and content you submit.
5.7 Retention and security. We retain Interaction Data for as long as necessary for the purposes above and apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect it. Concrete retention periods are set out in our Privacy Policy.
5.8 International transfer. Interaction Data is processed on servers located within the European Economic Area. Where a processor operates outside the EEA, transfers are subject to appropriate safeguards as described in our Privacy Policy.
5.9 Privacy Policy. Our Privacy Policy (Datenschutzerklärung), available at , is incorporated into this Agreement by reference and describes your data-subject rights under the GDPR (including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, and data portability) and how to exercise them. In case of conflict regarding personal-data handling, the Privacy Policy governs.
6. REFUNDS
VECTRA is a licensed digital software product. By purchasing, downloading, or activating the Software, you acknowledge this is not a trial product and that licenses are consumed upon delivery. To the extent permitted by applicable law (and without limiting any statutory withdrawal rights you may have as a consumer), we offer a 72-hour technical guarantee limited to a reproducible technical defect that prevents the Software from launching or performing its core advertised functions on a supported system.
Refunds will not be granted for: subjective dissatisfaction or unmet expectations; workflow preference, complexity, or learning curve; performance issues caused by unsupported, outdated, or underpowered hardware; instability in a Pre-Release Build that does not prevent basic functionality; or activated licenses where no confirmed technical defect is demonstrated.
You must provide sufficient technical information (system specifications and reproduction steps) to allow verification. If no defect is confirmed, no refund is issued. Refund decisions are made at the Licensor’s reasonable discretion, subject to your mandatory statutory rights.
7. UPDATES
The Licensor may update the Software and may modify this Agreement. For material changes, we will provide reasonable notice (for example, in-app or on our website). Your continued use of the Software after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree to a change, your remedy is to stop using the affected feature or the Software.
8. TERM & TERMINATION
This Agreement is effective until terminated. It terminates automatically if you breach it. On termination, you must cease use and remove the Software. Sections 1, 3, 5.6, 9, 10, and 11 survive termination.
9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Software, its components, and all related intellectual property are and remain the exclusive property of the Licensor and its licensors. Except for the limited license in Section 2, no rights are granted to you.
10. GOVERNING LAW & JURISDICTION
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. The place of jurisdiction shall be the Licensor’s place of business in Leipzig, Germany, to the extent permitted by law, except that mandatory consumer-protection rights and the jurisdiction of the consumer’s place of residence under applicable EU/German law remain unaffected. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) does not apply.
11. GENERAL
Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect and the provision is modified to the minimum extent necessary. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and the Licensor regarding the Software and supersede prior agreements (including any prior beta EULA). Assignment. You may not assign this Agreement; the Licensor may assign it in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Waiver. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
12. ACKNOWLEDGMENT
BY DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, ACTIVATING, OR USING THIS SOFTWARE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT, UNDERSTAND IT, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS. BY USING GENESIS, YOU SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE TO THE DATA PROCESSING AND DATA LICENSE DESCRIBED IN SECTION 5.
