The MrBackup Application, normally MrBackup.exe, is copyrighted and proprietary, it is supplied in a machine-readable form of object code only. You shall not have nor be entitled to obtain the solution in source code. All rights are reserved. The license granted to the End User is non-transferable, limited, specific use license. This component may not be shared or changed and it is not ‘free software,’ shareware, freeware or similar. The custom remote server applications are independent of the MrBackup application, are proprietary and are subject to copyright.

MrBackup is an indepent business entity and provides software independent data backup solutions. MrBackup is not owned by nor affiliated to Microsoft Corporation.

MrBackup does however make use of a number of free software works. These works have not been ‘changed’ as envisaged by the various applicable licensed and are used as originally released by their respective authors. These works are not compiled into, nor required exclusively by the MrBackup application. This means that (a) the MrBackup application is not a derivative of these various works and (b) that the MrBackup application exists separately and can function separately from any particular such free software work.

Due to the very flexible nature of the MrBackup application a substantial number of free software works and shareware applications are compatible with MrBackup. The applicable licenses can be found on the respective sites. This list follows no particular order and is illustrative, neither limited nor exhaustive. Note that the shareware, freeware or open source resources listed below are not required by the MrBackup application to function, nor re-sold. Typically not all of these resources are deployed simulataneously. This list does not contain any commercial or pay-for-use solutions. Please also note the typical ‘no warranty’ nature of these resources.

MrBackup uses the MD5 protocol for data verification. MD5 is not recommended, nor used, as a security protocol. Additional information appears on the Technical Specifications page, on this site.

 

Additional solutions, subject to independent licensing terms and conditions may be used by MrBackup. These licenses apply to both MrBackup and the End User and apply in addition to this license.
