non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to use the WaveSecure Software to access and use the Service for use on your
computing and communications devices only for the purposes as suggested on the Website. You agree that You will not reverse
engineer, disassemble, decompile or otherwise attempt to derive source code from the Software. You further agree as a condition
of this license to comply with our rules and policies on the use of the Service which we may
- (I) link to the Software;
- (II) publish within the tenCube websites, at www.tenCube.com and/or www.WaveSecure.com; or
- (III) otherwise notify you of from time to time in any other manner.

Section 4(A) above. The Service may automatically update, upgrade or repair itself when you attempt to synchronize your
data, and you agree not to interfere with or prevent such activities. If in the alternative, we provide You with instructions

5. Use of SMS & GPRS on your device
WaveSecure runs in the background and intercepts special messages sent by the server to your mobile phone. We use SMS and
GPRS to communicate with our servers, in the following cases:
- When you request for a backup of your data, WaveSecure establishes a GPRS connection to transfer this data from your phone
to our servers. We will always ask you before we establish a GPRS connection. For a richer experience, you can choose to
always allow WaveSecure to establish a GPRS connection to back up your data.
- Every time you switch on the phone, the SIM number in the phone is sent to the server via a GPRS connection. We do this
to ensure that we can always maintain connectivity with the device to send instructions (lock, backup, wipe etc) regardless
of which SIM card is inserted. Again, we will always prompt you when we need to establish a GPRS connection. You can choose
to always allow WaveSecure to establish a GPRS connection to send the SIM card number to our servers.
You can disable these alerts whenever you want. You can also disable auto-backup from the website if you want to stop backing
up your data.
6. Equipment for Software & Service
You must provide at your own expense a compatible mobile device, a GSM mobile connection (supporting SMS and data connection),
computer, Internet access, compatible software and compatible equipment to access and use WaveSecure. You must ensure that
you meet the system requirements that we will disclose to you when you sign up for WaveSecure. You may need to obtain updates
or upgrades from time to time in order to continue using WaveSecure. We may modify system requirements or the Software at
any time.
WE MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT ANY PARTICULAR MOBILE DEVICE, COMPUTER OR ANY OTHER DEVICE WILL BE COMPATIBLE OR FUNCTION WITH
THE WAVESECURE SOFTWARE AND SERVICE. We may modify the system requirements for WaveSecure at any time.
7. General Operating Rules
