The following conditions apply to the software products (collectively called 'SPSS') licensed to Monash University by SPSS Australasia Pty Ltd.

  2. The software cannot be installed on computers owned by Hospitals or any institutions other than Monash University, even if a computer is solely used by Monash staff and/or students.
  3. Software is to be used at Monash University for teaching, administrative and non-commercial research purposes only.
  4. Staff and students may use the software on computers owned, leased or controlled by Monash University.
  5. Monash staff and students are not permitted to make copies of the software.
  6. Monash staff and students are not permitted to distribute the CD or licence code.
  7. Monash University staff may use the software on personal computers which are owned, leased or controlled by them at their principal residence and/or on their own laptop computers, provided the software is used only for Monash University related research or study.
    • The licence is only valid while the owner of a computer is associated with Monash University.
    • Staff electing to use these products on a personally owned or leased workstation must undertake to remove this software from any such workstation on disposal of the equipment, termination of the Site License Agreement or termination of employment with Monash University, whichever occurs first.

  9. SPSS requires details of each and every SPSS Authorised end-user for audit purposes.  Where the software is distributed via Novell, details of each end-user is recorded automatically by ITS. 

    However, for manual installations, the Faculty IT staff will be required to keep accurate and up to date records of every SPSS installation within the Faculty. This requires that each request for the SPSS installation or code upgrade must be made separately to allow Faculty IT staff to log the details in the Faculty's SPSS database.
