  • All software is owned solely by the company that created or acquired it.
  • Users must abide by the terms of the agreement of use issued by the software company.
  • Users are not allowed to make copies of the software, either in its entirety or selected parts of the software.

Disclaimer:

Neither John Jay College nor CLSS can be held accountable for any damage, loss of data or time spent due to any software whether installed by our technician or yourself.  Our technicians, however, will try to restore the CLSS computer to its prior or original state.  It is recommended that you perform a full system back-up or at least your important data to an external device such as a USB flash drive.
