Re: Sharing EyeOne Profiles

2005-12-09 by Greg

And just installed the Profiler 4.8 update, so here is the license 
for that product:

Profile use
Defined.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Profile" means 
the data stored in look-up tables for characterizing various input, 
display, and output devices.  Profiles are used for providing 
transformations between well-defined color metrics and for device 
characterization and calibration.  

General.  If the Software creates Profiles, then the license to use 
the Software shall include a nonexclusive license to use the 
Profiles, subject to the additional restrictions below.

Restrictions.  

	(a)  You may use each Profile only for the specific display, 
input or output device owned by you, for which the device Profile was 
created; 

	(b)  A Profile may be shared with third parties for proofing 
purposes, provided that the Profile (i) is embedded within an image 
or publication; or (ii) sent to a service provider along with an 
image or publication for use exclusively with that image or 
publication; 

	(c)  A Profile may be used by a third party only on a 
specific display, input or output device owned by the third party for 
which the device Profile was created as part of Your commercial 
profiling service to such third party.

	(d)  Except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, You may 
not Yourself or through any other person, do any of the following: 
(i) sell, license, sublicense, lease, rent, lend, disclose, permit 
access to, or transfer to any third party, whether for profit or 
without charge, any Profile; (ii) allow any third party to use a 
Profile; or (iii) distribute to any third party a Profile in any way 
or form, whether by networks, electronic bulletin boards, web sites 
or otherwise.   X-Rite may permit certain distribution rights under a 
separate written distribution agreement.


Notice that Xrite doesn't come right out and say that you need to pay 
big money to mass distribute "generic" profiles.
