Terms and Conditions
Last updated: March 7, 2025
AGREEMENT TO OUR LEGAL TERMS
We are Medical Innovations Incubator GmbH, doing business as MII (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a company registered in Baden-Württemberg, Germany under company EUID DEB2609.HRB751684 with German commercial register id HRB 751684 at register court Amtsgericht Stuttgart, at the company address Eisenbahnstraße 63, 72072 Tübingen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Our VAT number is DE298438302.
We operate the website https://psychtoolbox.net (the “Site”), and we maintain and provide a set of Mex executable software files (referred to in this document as the “App”, and defined below in detail) which are derived from, and included for use with, the Open-Source Software toolkit Psychtoolbox, as well as any other and services that refer or link to these legal terms (the “Legal Terms”) (collectively, the “Services”).
Our Services enable and support the convenient use of the Psychtoolbox Open-Source Software (“OSS”) toolkit, which is a collection of software extensions to the script programming and scientific computing environments MathWorks Matlab and GNU/Octave. Psychtoolbox extends these scripting and computing environments with functionality to aid effective, efficient, and more trustworthy neuroscience research, cognitive science research and psychological science research, as well as related areas of research and education.
For your convenience, the Psychtoolbox OSS software includes some ready-made executable files for use with recent versions of Matlab and GNU/Octave, so called Mex files. A subset of these Mex files is maintained by us. These Mex files are crucial for effective use of Psychtoolbox, as they provide the interfaces to the operating system, various computer hardware, and other relevant third-party software and hardware for research. Some subset of these Mex files included in Psychtoolbox has been built by us from the public Psychtoolbox Open-Source code and been tested by us to achieve good performance, reliability and precision when used on officially recommended hardware, operating-system, and software system configurations, as described on the official Psychtoolbox community website (reachable through links from our web Site). The specific subset of Mex files provided by us, for Psychtoolbox versions starting with version 3.0.20, and supporting some operating system platforms as specified in the description of the subscription plans that we offer, including but not necessarily limited to Microsoft Windows and Apple macOS, is referred to in this legal document as “the App”. The Mex files constituting the App will only work with an active paid software subscription license that you can purchase from us via our authorized Resellers (“the Product”). See the section “SUBSCRIPTIONS” later in this document for subscription terms.
App Usage Requirements
Please note that the use of the App requires periodic network access to function properly for software licensing checks. Time-limited offline use for at least 14 days is possible, with longer offline use available if stated in the purchased subscription plan. Additionally, it is impossible to run the App in virtual machines or containers, as the App will not launch in such environments. These requirements are valid unless otherwise explicitly stated in the subscription plan or via an additional separate legal agreement between us (the company) and the customer.
Disclaimer for Functionality and Performance
Please note that the supported functionality and performance of the App may vary based on your chosen operating system, hardware, software configuration, and the version of Psychtoolbox you are using. Some of the offered subscription plans may limit functionality or performance. For information about recommended system setups and differences in functionality and performance, please refer to the Psychtoolbox community website.
We generally recommend using the latest published version of Psychtoolbox 3.0.20 or later, as well as the most recent version of the included App. New versions of Psychtoolbox and the App may occasionally remove functionality or change the set of supported system setups at our sole discretion.
Disclaimer for Self-Built Mex Files
If you prefer not to purchase subscription licenses from us, you have the option to build the required set of Mex files from the public Open-Source code of Psychtoolbox yourself. Please note that the correct building and functioning of these self-built Mex files will be solely your responsibility. We will not provide any user support for these files in case of problems or questions.
Disclaimer for Third-Party Mex Files
Any Mex files included in Psychtoolbox that are not part of the App and may be provided by third parties, do not require a subscription from us to enable their use. We do not offer support for these files in case of problems or questions. Additionally, we are not responsible for their proper functioning or performance.
You can contact us by phone at +49 152 / 52 99 85 35, email at psychtoolbox@mi-incubator.com, or by mail to Medical Innovations Incubator GmbH, Eisenbahnstraße 63, 72072 Tübingen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
These Legal Terms constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“you”), and Medical Innovations Incubator GmbH, and concerning your access to and use of the Services. You agree that by accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SERVICES AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.
Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on the Services from time to time are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these Legal Terms from time to time. We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last updated” date of these Legal Terms, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. It is your responsibility to periodically review these Legal Terms to stay informed of updates. You will be subject to and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised Legal Terms by your continued use of the Services after the date such revised Legal Terms are posted.
The Services are intended for users who are at least 18 years old. Persons under the age of 18 are not permitted to use or register for the Services. All users who are minors in the jurisdiction in which they reside (generally under the age of 18) must have the permission of, and be directly supervised by, their parent or guardian to use the Services.

6. PURCHASES AND PAYMENT
Authorized Resellers and Prices
Our software subscriptions are sold to you by our authorized reseller, currently the company FastSpring, a Merchant of Record. Our product page will redirect you to the website of the online store of FastSpring if you decide to acquire a software subscription for use of the App from us. FastSpring terms of service for a sale and their data protection and privacy statements can be found via prominent links on their online store website.
FastSpring accepts payment via a variety of payment methods and payment providers. The specific set of methods and providers available to you depends on your location and can vary from country to country. Available currencies for payment will depend on your chosen payment method and your location.
We sell software license subscriptions for the App (i.e. for using those Psychtoolbox Mex files included in Psychtoolbox and provided by us, which do require a software license key and activation to run), and offer multiple subscription plans which may differ in price, duration of a subscription cycle, supported product features and specific product versions enabled by the plan, and maximum number of computer setups (nodes / activations) that can be used simultaneously with a chosen subscription plan. Each subscription plan is described on our product page on our website.
Current Net purchase prices are denoted on our site in the European currency of EURO. Once you navigate from our product description page to the product checkout page at the online store of our Reseller, or ask our Reseller for a formal quote, the equivalent prices for payment will be displayed to you in the supported currency at your current location for your selected payment method. These prices are converted from Euro to your checkout currency, based on current exchange rates at time of purchase or creation of a formal quote, with a small adjustment applied by our reseller to cover their currency handling costs and to account for currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Sales tax will be added to the price of purchases as deemed required by our authorized resellers. Tax exempt organizations can prove their tax-exempt status to the Reseller at product checkout for a tax-exempt purchase, by use of a country specific method. E.g., buyers in the European Union can enter their VAT Id number. They can also contact FastSpring support for assistance with tax exempt orders, and for tax refunds after purchase under certain conditions. The consumer support link below provides access to relevant contact forms. Be advised that we cannot provide any tax refunds to you, as all handling of sales tax, VAT/GST etc. is performed solely by our reseller FastSpring, which is fully responsible for deciding about tax exempt status, tax calculation, withholding and remittance, without involvement from our side.
We may change prices at any time.
Questions with respect to the purchase process from FastSpring, including receiving formal Quotes for a prospective purchase, creation of Purchase orders, receiving of Invoices or Receipts, payment methods and modalities, handling of tax, and also how to receive a sales tax exemption if your organization is exempt from sales tax, and similar questions and issues are most efficiently and quickly addressed by visiting the FastSpring customer support pages, and possibly contacting their customer support, by visiting the following website: https://fastspring.com/consumer-support
You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made via the Services and our reseller. You further agree to promptly update account and payment information, including email address, payment method, and payment card expiration date if applicable, so that we or our reseller can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.
You agree to pay all charges at the prices then in effect for your purchases and any applicable shipping fees, and you authorize us or our authorized resellers to charge your chosen payment provider for any such amounts upon placing your order. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes in pricing, even if we have already requested or received payment.
We reserve the right to refuse any order placed through the Services and our reseller. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household, or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same payment method, and/or orders that use the same billing or shipping address. We reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in our sole judgment, appear to be placed by dealers, unauthorized resellers, or distributors.
7. SUBSCRIPTIONS
Subscription Usage Details
Your subscription allows you to use the App (as defined at the beginning of this document) on the specified operating system platforms, hardware, software configurations, and App versions mentioned in your purchased subscription plan description.
Some subscription plans may limit the App’s functionality or performance, or they may restrict the range of App versions you can use. These limitations can be due to technical reasons, such as certain subscription plans requiring a minimum version of the App to implement required functionality not available in earlier versions of the App.
Additionally, discounted or cheaper plans may have restrictions. For example, plans for demonstration and evaluation purposes only, plans for academic training and education, or plans that only allow use with certain versions of the App up to a specific maximum version.
Start of subscription
Your subscription will start at the time when your first payment is received by our authorized Reseller. You will then receive an e-mail receipt with the confirmation of the start of your subscription, and thereby the start of the first billing cycle. The e-mail will include the subscription terms, and the software license key (also known as product key) which allows you to activate the App on up to the licensed number of simultaneous computer setups (also known as nodes, seats, machines), as well as setup instructions for activating the App on a node with the help of the license key. The number of allowed nodes for simultaneous use of the subscription license will depend on the type of subscription plan you choose when you subscribed to the Services. The e-mail will also include a link to allow you to download an invoice for your subscription purchase, and a link to access a customer self-service portal of our Reseller, which allows you to manage your subscription, e.g., payment method, to switch from automatic to manual rebilling, or to cancel your subscription. An additional separate e-mail from our licensing provider Cryptlex will provide you with the option to create a customer self-service account with them to allow management of the set of licensed and activated nodes under your subscription for the App.
Billing, Duration and Renewal
Your subscription will continue and automatically renew unless cancelled. You consent to our authorized Reseller charging your payment method on a recurring basis without requiring your prior approval for each recurring charge, until such time as you cancel the applicable order, or until you switch to manual rebilling. A switch to manual rebilling will require you to manually perform a payment at the end of each billing cycle to continue your subscription. In case of manual rebilling or problems with your payment method on record, automatic payment reminder e-mails will be sent to your e-mail address on record. The length of your billing cycle will depend on the type of subscription plan you choose when you subscribed to the Services.
Missing Payments
In case your payment for a new billing cycle is overdue, i.e. it hasn’t succeeded by the end of the current cycle, your App license will be suspended and therefore the App will stop working on all nodes associated with the subscription. Up to three payment reminders will be sent out after every week of overdue payment, until payment has happened. Your subscription will get cancelled two weeks after the final payment reminder if no payment has been received by then. After an overdue payment has been received by our Reseller before cancellation of your subscription, the App will resume working.
Free Trial
We offer a 14-day free trial to new users on new machines on which the App is used the first time, registering the App with the services of our licensing provider. This happens automatically at first use of the App after installation on a new node, after the user has given informed consent, without the need to buy a subscription. The App will stop working on a given machine at the end of the free trial. You will then be required to buy a paid subscription from our authorized Reseller to continue use of the App on a machine, once the free trial has expired.
Cancellation
You can cancel your subscription at any time by logging into your customer account, as created for you by our authorized Reseller when placing your first order. Login links can be found on your email receipt after purchase and start of a subscription. Your cancellation will take effect at the end of the current paid term. This means that at the end of the current paid term, the subscription will not automatically renew anymore, you won’t be charged anymore, and the App will cease to function on all nodes associated and activated with your cancelled subscription. You can un-cancel your subscription via your customer account as well, if you change your mind, as long as you do so before the end of the current paid term.
If you have any questions or need help with managing your subscription, please email us at psychtoolbox@mi-incubator.com.
Fee Changes
We may, from time to time, make changes to the subscription fee and will communicate any price changes to you in accordance with applicable law.
8. RETURN/REFUNDS POLICY
Please review our Return and Refunds Policy posted on the Services prior to making any purchases. It also contains contact addresses for requesting a refund.
9. SOFTWARE
The OSS Psychtoolbox software toolkit includes a set of Open-Source software licenses, which will govern your use of the software toolkit, including the App (i.e. specifically the subset of Mex files which are provided, maintained and enabled by us, and which are only usable by purchase of a paid software subscription from us), and your redistribution rights to the software, including the App.
