This agreement – together with all updates, additional terms and all Flows/ DSPENGINEERING rules and policies referred to in this agreement – collectively constitute the “Agreement” between you and DSPENGINEERING. To agree to these terms, click “Agree”. If you do not agree to these terms, do not click “Agree”, and do not use the service. You must accept and abide by these terms as presented to you; changes, additions, or deletions are not acceptable, and DSPENGINEERING may refuse access to the Flows Store for non-compliance with any part of this Agreement. This Agreement applies without prejudice to software licences that you may have entered into, such as for the use of the Flows application.

1. Definition of the Flows Store Service. DSPENGINEERING is the provider of the Flows Store (the “Service”) that permits you to acquire a licence for physical and/or digital content including sound recordings, videos, games and software under certain terms and conditions as set forth in this Agreement.
