Export Compliance Information
(Updated March 2, 2020)
Export Compliance
Syncro Soft ("Syncro") software products may be subject to international rules that govern the export of software. The information contained on this page is provided to aid our channel partners and end customers in their export compliance efforts and it should not be considered a source of legal guidance or advice.
| IMPORTANT |
Before considering the export of a Syncro product, customers should review the End-User License Agreement (see "Export Regulations" clause) that came with the product to verify if the terms of the agreement allow the product to be moved out of a given country or region. |
Laws and Regulations
Syncro products are considered “Country of Origin: Romania”. Even if the Syncro software products are developed outside the U.S, they contain controlled U.S-origin items and are subject to U.S. Export Administration Regulations (EAR). Therefore, the export or re-export of these products, or transfer of these technologies, is subject to the export laws and regulations of the United States. The primary agencies that administer and enforce these laws and regulations are the Bureau of Industry and Security("BIS") and the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
In addition to U.S. export and re-export controls, Syncro software products are also subject to European Union (EU) export controls if they are exported from an EU location to a destination outside the EU. Parties exporting Syncro software products from the EU should obtain proper export licenses as required under EU rules (Council Regulation (EC) No. 428/2009) and Member State laws.
Similar requirements may apply to Syncro software products exported from other countries, located outside the U.S.A. and the E.U., depending on the jurisdiction governing the company that exports Syncro software products.
Encryption products are also subject to import restrictions in certain countries, including prior notification and licensing requirements.
ECCN Information
An ECCN is an alphanumeric reference (for example, 5D992) that the United States Export Administration Regulations use to identify items for export control purposes. An ECCN is used to categorize products based on the type of commodity, technology, or software and its respective technical parameters, such as the encryption algorithm a product uses, the processing capabilities of an integrated circuit, or positioning accuracy in machine tools (reference: www.bis.doc.gov)
The following ECCN classifications are based on unmodified software products in original condition, as shipped by Syncro:
