eVitabu Partner Rights
This agreement entitles the eVitabu Partner a licence to use X eVitabu device(s).
The eVitabu Partner has the right to receive training on the proper usage of eVitabu device and limited technical support if required.
The capacity of the eVitabu device means that it can be used beyond the scope of the eVitabu app, for example, to access the internet or for emailing. The eVitabu Partner has the right of "reasonable usage" in their use the device outside of the eVitabu app. This right allows for responsible and conscientious use of the eVitabu device by eVitabu Partner organisation outside of the eVitabu app, but would not for example permit extensive downloading and installing of external apps or accessing high-risk websites.
eVitabu Partner Duties
The eVitabu device and app are designed primarily for training colleagues or peers in Christian ministry and community development. By accepting an eVitabu device, the eVitabu Partner commits to using the device to complete a series of training sessions for at least X such peers by using the resources on the eVitabu app between 1st April 2018 and 31st March 2019.

In event of the device being damaged, lost or any failure caused through unreasonable or improper use, the cost of replacing the eVitabu device for the eVitabu Partner should be borne by the eVitabu Partner, not APF.
RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF APF
APF Rights
APF reserves the right to monitor and evaluate usage of eVitabu in at least three ways:
