SCHEDULE 6

TO SOFTWARE LICENSING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT

PARTIAL LIST OF RISKS

The internet and mobile applications have secured a dominant place in the lives of most people. We now have the ability to instantaneously connect with others and to discover needed information. The risks have grown as well. Any use of electronic media, the internet, mobile applications, or engagement in the activities that are the subject matter of this Agreement is subject to risks, including, without limitation, those identified in this Schedule 7 and other currently undefined, unknown, and unforeseeable harm, damage, risks and dangers (collectively, the “Risks”). The list of potential Risks identified in this Schedule 7 is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all potential Risks and is only a partial list of some such Risks.

We leave digital finger prints behind whenever we visit a website or send a message. Businesses and others use this tracking information to know what to advertise to you. Governments, and other bad people, use the information to track your interests and even your location. With the entry of the smartphone, the always-connected-to-the-internet computer in your pocket, the Risks have increased alongside the opportunities for good.

1. Basic security Risks of mobile applications.

  • Possible incrimination for having Bible verses on a telephone;
  • Possible incrimination for having an application that encourages the sharing of the gospel with others;
  • Possible incrimination for sharing a Bible resource with other people digitally;
  • Possible linking/exposing other believers/people to harm because of the sharing;
  • Possible exposure of personal information; and/or
  • Possible detection by internet or digital tracking

 

2. Specific Risks related to the Licensor’s applications.

  • People learn about the different names or logos of the application and start looking for them. No matter how the application is disguised, it will always be possible to “know the book by its cover.” The application will be out in the world and it is likely only a matter of time that it falls into the “wrong hands.”

  • People discover how much the application is used on the Operating systems have settings areas that display information such as “Battery usage by application.” The Licensor’s applications would appear in the list just like any other application. The systems keep logs/lists of when functions are used, which means information such as a list of file transfers or installs. Such information would show that the application was installed or that a file was transferred from one telephone to another (without necessarily listing the name of the file).

  • It is possible that the encryption keys used for sharing resources can be reverse engineered. Even if this eventuality occurs, however, there would still be additional steps that would have to be taken before useful data is accessed. There is a higher probability that other incriminating information on the device will be found in the web browser, texts, or social media

  • People learn the PIN to the application. Users have a tendency to reuse PIN codes, use obvious codes, or simply to enter the code in plain sight of Once a PIN is compromised, the content of the application, but not usernames or e-mails, can be accessed.

 

 

 

By signing a copy of this Agreement (either on paper or electronically), each Party is agreeing to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
