Kodeco owns the trademarks “Kodeco” and “kodeco.com”, as well as trademarks for other Websites, and all related names, logos, product and service names, designs and slogans. Kodeco owns all trade dress associated with the Websites and the Materials, including all the associated visual design elements or concepts. Kodeco’s name and logo, and all related names, logos, product and service names, designs and slogans, are trademarks of the Kodeco or its affiliates or licensors. You may not use such marks without the prior written permission of the Kodeco; but we might grant you permission if you contact us at support@kodeco.com.
If you have purchased Materials through the Website, we grant you a limited license to view the Materials you have purchased, as described in this section. We offer both subscription models (“Subscriptions”) and, sometimes, the ability to purchase individual Materials outright (“Purchases”). To have the rights under a Subscription or a Purchase, you must pay us the cost of that Subscription or Purchase.
In connection with a Subscription, we grant you a limited, revocable license to view Materials included in your subscription (“Subscription Materials”). This license terminates when your Subscription terminates. We may also update or remove Materials from your Subscription from time to time. You may not download any Subscription Materials for later viewing. This license permits private viewing of the Subscription Materials only. Any public or group performance, copying, or other use of the materials is strictly prohibited. The license is worldwide, is not transferrable, and is non-exclusive. We may revoke the license if you violate any term of this Agreement. We may also control the manner in which you view Materials, such as requiring you to employ a proprietary web-based reader, and may change the manner in which you view the Materials from time to time.
In connection with source code, compiled code, or other software provided in Subscription Materials for the purpose of providing instruction in the topic covered by such Materials (“Software”), we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, revocable, license in such Software in accordance with the following terms: You may deal in the Software without restriction other than the restrictions contained in this Agreement. You may use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, may create derivative works from the Software, and may permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: Notice that Kodeco holds the copyright to the Software, and this permission notice, shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, create a derivative work, and/or sell copies of the Software in any work that is designed, intended, or marketed for pedagogical or instructional purposes related to programming, coding, application development, or information technology. Permission for such use, copying, modification, merger, publication, distribution, sublicensing, creation of derivative works, or sale is expressly withheld, and we may revoke your license to the Software for violating this permission. ALL SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE.
In connection with Purchases, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to view the materials purchased (the “Purchased Materials”). Purchased Materials include but are not limited to books (electronic, not physical) and standalone collections of videos such as the RWDevCon Vault. Your license is perpetual, but may be revoked if you violate its terms. You may download the Purchased Materials to the extent the Website permits; some Purchased Materials, like videos, are not downloadable. You may print a hard copy of the Purchased Materials for your own personal use, but for no other purpose. You may also transfer your license to the Purchased Materials that are downloadable, but only if you do not retain any copies of the Purchased Materials after you transfer your license. The Purchased Materials also contain information regarding the license to portions of the Purchased Materials that would constitute Software if included in a Subscription rather than a Purchase; such portions are subject to the license contained within the Purchased Materials. If you delete your account as described below, previously Purchased Materials may become unavailable, and there is no way to restore your account after you delete it. Just as with a Subscription, we may control the manner in which you view Purchased Materials, and may change that manner from time to time.

In all instances, you may not reproduce, redistribute, reverse engineer, sublicense, copy, exploit, distribute, redistribute, or duplicate Content. You may not create derivative works from Content. You may not use Content other than in accordance with this Agreement, or as permitted by us in writing. You may not sell Content with the exception of Purchased Materials, and subject to the terms above. You may not use Content for any illegal purpose. Other than browsing the Website normally in a browser, you may not download Content except for the Purchased Materials (which you may download only as permitted above).
