5. USE IN NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING AND LIMITATION OF RELIANCE

5.1 The Software is provided solely as a tool to assist inspection, analysis, modelling, and data visualisation.

5.2 The Licensee acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) the Software does not perform inspections and does not replace the judgement, skill, or responsibility of qualified personnel;

(c) the Software does not guarantee the detection, sizing, characterisation, or absence of defects or anomalies;

(d) Output Data may be affected by limitations inherent in data acquisition, processing, modelling, transformation, interpolation, resolution, coordinate mapping, and system constraints.

5.3 The Software is not certified or intended for use as a safety-critical system and shall not be relied upon as such.

5.4 The Licensee shall ensure that the Software is used only by appropriately qualified, trained, and competent personnel, including personnel certified where required under applicable non-destructive testing standards.
