As such, all terms in this Agreement relating to TeamSpeak sales, billing, compliance with licensing, including related issues such as piracy or banning of servers, will be handled by Triton CI & Associates, Inc. in accordance with the laws within the State of California, USA.
2. OWNERSHIP
Ownership of TeamSpeak software and any accompanying documentation shall at all times remain with TeamSpeak Systems GmbH. This Agreement does not constitute the sale of TeamSpeak software or any accompanying documentation, or any portion thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you do not receive any rights to any patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks or other intellectual property rights relating to TeamSpeak software or any accompanying documentation. All rights not expressly granted to you under this Agreement are reserved by TeamSpeak Systems GmbH.
3. DEFINITIONS
3.1 TeamSpeak Client and Server
TeamSpeak software consists of both a TeamSpeak Client and TeamSpeak Server application. The TeamSpeak Server is the application which acts as a host and allows two or more client connections to communicate with one another. The TeamSpeak Client is the application which connects to the TeamSpeak Server and contains end-user functionality which includes initiating a data stream for voice communication with another client connection. Sample screenshots of both the TeamSpeak Client and Server applications can be found at www.teamspeak.com/?page=screenshots.
3.2 TeamSpeak Software Development Kit (TeamSpeak SDK)
TeamSpeak software may also consist of a Software Development Kit or SDK. The TeamSpeak SDK is a set of development tools and documentation which allows software engineers to create customized or integrated applications typically as part of an existing product or service. The TeamSpeak SDK includes API information, sample code, tools, documentation, and other related items.
3.3 TeamSpeak Virtual Server
A TeamSpeak Virtual Server is any instance within the TeamSpeak Server application (binary executable) which allows the TeamSpeak Client application to connect. A single executed TeamSpeak Server application (binary executable) will by default create a single Virtual Server. However, the TeamSpeak Server application is capable of creating and hosting multiple Virtual Servers within any single running binary executable, where each server contains its own configuration properties which to the end-user may appear to act as a stand-alone server.
3.4 TeamSpeak Server Slot
A TeamSpeak Server Slot (or just "slot") is utilized when a single TeamSpeak Client connection is established to any given TeamSpeak Virtual Server. The maximum "slots" or "slot count" can be individually configured for each Virtual Server and defines the maximum number of users that can simultaneously connect to that Virtual Server at any given time. For example, a Virtual Server configured for 10 slots will allow up to 10 simultaneous user connections before it generates a "server full" error message to the 11th user attempting to connect to the same Virtual Server.
3.5 Commercial Entity
A commercial entity is an individual, company, or organization which demonstrates (typically via but not limited to a website) that it is in business to turn a profit of any kind; be it monetary, from direct sales or rental fees, advertising profit, or through the privileged use of intangible goods and services.
Example of a Commercial Entity:
A hosting company or organization which charges a monthly fee for the use of a TeamSpeak server OR a hosting company or organization which does NOT charge a monthly fee for the use of a TeamSpeak server but earns substantial profit from advertising, or from other products or services of any kind.
Example of a Commercial Entity profiting from advertising:
An organization advertising for products or services offered by a hosting company in exchange for the use of a TeamSpeak server means the hosting company will be considered to be a commercial entity, even if they choose not to charge anything at all for the use of any of their TeamSpeak servers. This situation is commonly referred to as a clan or guild "sponsorship".
Example of a Commercial Entity profiting from intangible goods:
A "payment" is made to an individual or hosting company using virtual currency (gold, etc.) within a popular massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) in exchange for the use of a TeamSpeak server means the individual or hosting company will be considered to be a commercial entity.
3.6 Non-Profit Entity
A non-profit entity is an individual or organization which does NOT utilize TeamSpeak software for profit of any kind; be it monetary, from direct sales or rental fees, advertising profit, or intangible goods and services.
Example 1: A clan or guild hosting a TeamSpeak server for their own private use while complying with all terms and conditions set forth in Section 5.1 of this Agreement.
Example 2: An individual hosting a TeamSpeak server for private use to communicate with friends or family over the Internet while complying with all terms and conditions set forth in Section 5.1 of this Agreement.
4. LICENSE FEES
Based on the definitions above, license fees may be applicable to entities utilizing the TeamSpeak Server application. License fees are NOT applicable to the TeamSpeak Client application. All Commercial Entities using the TeamSpeak Server application for any reason must pay a license fee, regardless of whether or not they choose to charge fees for the use of their servers. Non-Profit Entities using the TeamSpeak Server application do not need to pay a license fee; however, these entities must comply with the terms and conditions set forth in the License Types applicable to Non-Profit Entities below. If you are uncertain as to whether you qualify as a Non-Profit Entity you must contact Triton CI & Associates, Inc. via e-mail at sales@tritoncia.com or via support.tritoncia.com.

This is also enforced by the license key which is issued after the registration and approval process has been completed.
5.3. Commercial License for ATHPs (Authorized TeamSpeak Host Providers): Recurs Monthly
An Authorized TeamSpeak Host Provider License or ATHP License is a license requiring recurring monthly fees. ATHP Licenses are issued to Commercial Entities (an individual, company, or organization) which rent TeamSpeak servers to others for profit of any kind; be it monetary, from direct sales or rental fees, advertising profit, or through the privileged use of intangible goods and services. ATHPs are Commercial Entities which typically charge their customers a monthly fee for the use of a TeamSpeak Virtual Server or include the Virtual Server as part of other services or offerings to their customers free of charge. Commercial Entities operating under the Authorized TeamSpeak Host Provider License may install and use TeamSpeak software on one or more physical machines, and must adhere to the following conditions:
a.ATHPs must register for an account on Triton CI & Associates, Inc.'s website at sales.tritoncia.com/users/register.php.
b.ATHPs are subject to recurring, monthly licensing fees based on the average slot count configured on each Virtual Server hosted by the ATHP during the previous month (e.g. - if a Virtual Server reports being configured for 50 Slots during 15 out of 30 days of the previous month, the Virtual Server will be billed at 25 Slots). These licensing fees are completely indifferent to whether or not an ATHP's customer makes use of their Virtual Server.
c.ATHPs are billed monthly, in arrears, by Triton CI & Associates, Inc. All invoices are typically sent on the 1st or 2nd day of every month via email and are also posted to the ATHP's online account via Triton CI & Associates, Inc.'s website at sales.tritoncia.com.
d.Payments are due 15 days after any invoice is generated (NET 15). It is the ATHP's responsibility to ensure that their invoice is received; whether by the primary email address registered to the ATHP's online account or by a representative of the ATHP ensuring that the ATHP's online account is logged into or checked each month for new invoices.
e.ATHPs who become 30 or more days past due on their invoice may have their TeamSpeak Servers banned due to non-payment.
f.ATHPs who consistently fail to pay their invoices on time are subject to having their account or license suspended or revoked.
g.New ATHPs acknowledge that there will be a $50 setup fee in addition to a minimum monthly license fee of $25 for a minimum slot count of 200.
h.ATHPs acknowledge that invoices may occasionally reflect inaccurate data due to incorrectly configured slot counts on licensed Virtual Servers (e.g. - test servers accidentally created with high slot counts, or duplicate data reported back to TeamSpeak Systems GmbH during data center migrations, etc.). As such, invoices are subject to review by both the ATHP and Triton CI & Associates, Inc. Every effort will be made by Triton CI & Associates, Inc. to determine the best course of action when correcting or modifying an invoice.
i.ATHPs acknowledge that slot count data for each Virtual Server hosted by the ATHP is reported daily to TeamSpeak Systems GmbH's tracking server located at accounting.teamspeak.com (IP 62.146.63.84) for the purpose of tracking and billing the ATHP accordingly.
j.ATHPs may not utilize firewalls or any other tools to prevent communication from their licensed Virtual Servers to TeamSpeak Systems GmbH's tracking server located at accounting.teamspeak.com (IP 62.146.63.84). All outbound traffic, both TCP and UDP, must be made available to the tracking server AND the organization must ensure that DNS is functioning properly and is able to resolve the hostname accounting.teamspeak.com at all times on all physical machines where Virtual Servers are being hosted.
k.ATHPs may not alter each individual Virtual Server's slot count on a daily basis (e.g. - via an automated script or third party utility) in order to deliberately or otherwise alter the daily slot count configuration data which is reported to TeamSpeak Systems GmbH's tracking server located at accounting.teamspeak.com (IP 62.146.63.84).
l.ATHPs may allow resellers to sell their TeamSpeak Virtual Servers; however, the ATHP must ensure that all of their Virtual Server IPs are licensed at all times. Resellers are not required to register and purchase a separate ATHP license for themselves as long as all Virtual Servers sold by the reseller are licensed through the ATHP.
5.4. Commercial License: Annual Activation
A Commercial License is a license requiring annual activation. Commercial Licenses are issued to Commercial Entities (an individual, company, or organization) which utilize TeamSpeak servers in a commercial environment but are not in the business of hosting or renting servers to others for a recurring fee. Examples include, but are not limited to, Internet Cafes or small businesses using TeamSpeak for internal communication. Commercial Entities operating under the Commercial License must adhere to the following conditions:
a.Commercial Entities must register for an account on Triton CI & Associates, Inc.'s website at sales.tritoncia.com/users/register.php.
b.Upon expiration of the annual licensed term, the Commercial Entity must purchase an additional year of activation in order to continue using TeamSpeak.
