The purpose of these Terms is to define the terms and conditions of provision of the Software and the rights between the User and the Company in relation to the use of the Software.
Any person who wishes to use the Software (hereinafter referred to as the "Applicant") may apply to the Company for registration to use the Software by agreeing to comply with these Terms, and providing the Company with a user registration sheet containing certain information specified by the Company (hereinafter referred to as the "Registration Details").
The Company reserves the right to decide whether or not to accept the application by the Applicant in the preceding paragraph, and if the Company accepts the registration, the Company shall notify the Applicant thereof. The user registration for use of the Software shall be completed with such notification (hereinafter referred to as "Completion of User Registration").
Upon completion of the User Registration as set out in the preceding paragraph, an agreement regarding the use of the Software (hereinafter referred to as the "Agreement") shall be concluded between the Company and the User, and the User may use the Software in accordance with these Terms.
Upon Completion of User Registration, the User agrees to be listed on the Company's website, etc. as a company that has installed the Software.

However, fractional days of less than one month shall be converted into one month.
In the event that the User delays payment of the usage fee, the User shall pay to the Company liquidated damages at a rate of 14.6% per annum from the day following the payment date until the date of payment.
The Company shall not refund any money already received from the User for any reason, including but not limited to a reduction in the number of licenses, suspension of the provision of the Software, or termination of registration as stipulated in Article 13 of these Terms.
