SDK SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
Agreement Version 1.1 / Effective Date: 2026-07-31
Copyright (c) 2026 Mobilint, Inc. All rights reserved.
FORMATION AND ACCEPTANCE
This Software License Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into between Mobilint, Inc. (“Mobilint”) and the individual who downloads, installs, or uses the Software, or the legal entity or organization that the individual validly represents (“Customer”).
Customer accepts this Agreement by either (i) selecting the acceptance checkbox during portal registration, download, or license activation, or (ii) downloading, installing, activating, or using the Software. An individual accepting on behalf of an entity represents that the individual has lawful authority to bind that entity. If Customer does not agree, or the individual lacks such authority, Customer must not download, install, activate, or use the Software.
If Customer and Mobilint have entered into a separately executed Order Form, commercial license agreement, nondisclosure agreement, or other written agreement, that document controls to the extent expressly stated in it and to the extent of any conflict with this Agreement.
1. DEFINITIONS
1.1 “Authorized User” means an employee of Customer or a contractor performing services under Customer’s direct direction and control, whom Customer manages and requires to comply with the restrictions and confidentiality obligations of this Agreement.
1.2 “Authorized Mobilint NPU” means a Mobilint NPU hardware product, development board, or product incorporating such hardware that Customer lawfully owns or is authorized by Mobilint to evaluate or use.
1.3 “Software” means the qbcompiler SDK provided through an authorized channel, including Python packages, compiled C/C++ libraries and extension modules, APIs, command-line tools, Runtime, firmware, headers, Sample Code, documentation, patches, updates, and Authorized Redistributable Components provided by Mobilint as part of the qbcompiler SDK.
