# END-USER LICENCE AGREEMENT FOR RIMWORLD

Last updated: April 7, 2022

In order to protect Ludeon Studios Inc. ("Ludeon") and members of the


community, we have to lay down some end-user license terms (this "EULA") that
set out rules for downloading and using RimWorld as well as participating in
the community around it, including using our Website, rimworldgame.com (the
"Website").

Since reading licenses is boring, we've tried to keep this EULA short and
clear. Boring or not, this is a legal agreement that applies to you if you
purchase or use RimWorld or participate in our community. If you mod RimWorld
or create content using RimWorld or other related content, please be sure to
read the sections that apply to you.

By purchasing, downloading, using, or playing RimWorld, you acknowledge that


you have read and accept this EULA in its entirety, and agree to be bound by
its terms. If you do not agree to follow the rules set out in this EULA, then
you must not buy, download, use, or play RimWorld.

If you have purchased RimWorld through a "Third Party Platform" (such as Steam
for instance) then additional terms may apply to your purchase ("Third Party
Terms"). We are not in control of, or responsible for, such Third Party
Platforms, so we suggest that you make yourself familiar with their Third
Party Terms if you choose to purchase RimWorld through a Third Party Platform.

# THE LICENCE

When you purchase RimWorld, you purchase a perpetual, revocable, and limited
licence to install and use RimWorld and the associated materials, documents,
online services, forums, and other ancillaries (we collectively refer to all
of these as the "Software") for your own personal use in accordance with this
EULA (the "Licence").

# ONE KEY RULE

The one key rule of the Licence is that you can't sell, share, or modify any
part of the Software unless we agree to it in advance. This means you're not
allowed to do things like:

* Make or distribute (that includes giving away) copies of the Software or any
part of the Software, to anyone else;
*
* Try to make money from the Software in any way, except as permitted below;
*
* Let others access anything the Software in a way that is unfair or
unreasonable;
*
* Give away or sell license keys to the Software (you may, however, give gift
codes that have been bought through our Website or an official Third Party Platform
gift code system, such as Steam); or
*
* Rip parts of our game out and distribute them (for example, ripping songs and
selling them - if you want the soundtrack, buy it!).

# THINGS YOU CREATE USING OUR SOFTWARE

Ludeon appreciates that you may want to create modifications, tools, or


plugins for our Software ("Mods") or content that uses or is about our
Software ("User Content", collectively with Mods, "Derivative Works"). If you
are one of these folks, please read the following terms carefully as any use
of our Software without our permission is both a violation of our rights and
unlawful. You may create Derivative Works provided that you comply with the
terms of this EULA. If one your Derivative Works violate this EULA, it is
prohibited.

In each Derivative Work that you create, you must display the following
disclaimer on or reasonably in connection with your Derivative Works, such as
on your website or social media profile.

"Portions of the materials used to create this content/mod are trademarks


and/or copyrighted works of Ludeon Studios Inc. All rights reserved by Ludeon. This
content/mod is not official and is not endorsed by Ludeon."

If you use our logos, game titles, or other trademarks in your Derivative
Works ("Ludeon Marks"), you must:

* Not use the Ludeon Marks in a manner that damages the goodwill and reputation
associated with them;
*
* Only use the Ludeon Marks in connection with your Derivative Works and not in
connection with any other products, services, or business;
*
* Not change or alter any of the Ludeon Marks. (For example, it's "RimWorld" not
"rim world"); and
*
* Not use the Ludeon Marks or any confusingly similar name or word in any domain
name, website name, or other title.

You own the Derivative Works you create. However, by creating any Derivative
Work, you agree to grant Ludeon a licence to use, copy, modify, adapt,
distribute, and publicly display all those Derivative Works for any purpose,
without any payment or notice to you, anywhere throughout the universe (the
"Derivative Licence"). This Derivative Licence is irrevocable and lasts
forever. You also agree to let Ludeon sell, assign, or sublicense the
Derivative Licence to other people so that they may use, copy, modify, adapt,
distribute, and publicly display your Derivative Work. Though we generally
like to credit everyone for their work, we're not required to credit or
acknowledge you if we use any of your Derivative Works, or if we allow another
to do so. If you don't want to give us these permissions, do not make
Derivative Works.

You're also allowed to use things we've made if the law expressly allows it,
such as under "fair use" or "fair dealing" doctrine - but only to the extent
that the law applicable to you expressly says. For example, most "fair use"
doctrines would allow you to use game screenshots in a review article but
would not let you make a t-shirt using our artwork.

When you create Derivative Works in accordance with this EULA you are doing so
with our permission. That being said, we can revoke this permission to create
Derivative Works at any time, and for any reason, including but not limited
to, any breach by you of this EULA.

# REVIEWERS, STREAMERS, AND CONTENT CREATORS


Within reason, you are allowed to make User Content such as videos of the
gameplay of the Software and distribute them. While your User Content cannot
be sold, you're allowed to monetize this content through advertising. This
means that you can make Let's Play's on YouTube or stream yourself on Twitch,
but you can't sell any individual pieces of User Content that you make.

We understand that a lot of content creators solicit donations on platforms


such as Patreon. You may accept donations in connection with your User Content
generally, but they may not be tied to the delivery of a specific piece of
User Content. You must not try to push, force or pressure your fans to donate
to you in any way. Your request for donations must be unobtrusive.

Your User Content cannot:

* State or imply that your User Content is endorsed or created by Ludeon;


*
* Contain links to websites or services that promote piracy or hacks of the
Software, or any other software;
*
* Harass, abuse defame, attack, or bully any individual;
*
* Damage the reputation and goodwill of Ludeon or our Software;
*
* Infringe any third-party intellectual property rights, personality rights, or
other third-party rights; or
*
* Otherwise breach any applicable laws.

# MODS

You may create and distribute Mods. By "Mods", we mean something original that
you or someone else created that doesn't contain a substantial part of our
Software, including our code, artwork, lore, or other content. Ludeon has
final say on what constitutes a Mod and what doesn't.

With regards to Mods, the following terms apply:

* Your Mods must be distributed for free, period. Neither you, nor any other
person or party, may sell them to anyone, commercially exploit them in any way, or
charge anyone for receiving or using them without getting prior written consent
from Ludeon. Commercial exploitation includes but is not limited to in-game
advertising, or monetizing your Mod through any other forms of advertising or
marketing.
*
* You may however, accept donations in connection with your modding efforts
generally, but they may not be tied to the delivery of a specific product or
service. You must not try to push or force or pressure users of your Mod to donate
to you in any way. Your request for donations must be unobtrusive.
*
* You may not advertise for donations within your Mods themselves.
*
* Your Mods must not contain any ads or other calls to action of any kind. This
prohibition includes advertising, marketing, or promotions for charities, political
parties or causes, non-profit organizations, or other non-commercial entities.
*
* Your Mods must only work with the full, registered copy of the Software, not
independently or with any other software. Your Mod may not be distributed together
with the base game or any official expansions, as a "modded version" of the
Software.
*
* Your Mods must not contain any illegal material.
*
* Your Mods must not contain any material that violates copyright, trademark, or
other intellectual property rights of Ludeon or any other person or parties.
*
* Your Mods must not contain any content that is obscene, offensive,
objectionable, or otherwise harmful to others.
*
* Your Mods must clearly be presented as community-created content and not as
though they were official or made by Ludeon.
*
* Your Mods must not misrepresent what they are or their purpose, or deceive
players in any way they wouldn't reasonably appreciate.
*
* Your Mods may not be used as a vector for spreading malware.
*
* Your Mods may not harass, abuse defame, attack, or bully any individual.
*
* Your Mods must comply with all applicable laws.

We reserve the right to revoke your Licence to create and distribute Mods
based on our Software if we determine, in our sole discretion, that your Mod
in any way breaches the terms and conditions of this EULA.

You're allowed to 'decompile' our game assets and look through our code, art,
sound, and other resources for learning purposes, or to use our resources as a
basis or reference for a Mod. However, you're not allowed to rip these
resources out and pass them around independently. This educational use must be
done in compliance with the "fair dealing" (for Canadians), "fair use" (for
Americans), or other similar copyright principles that may be applicable to
you in your jurisdiction.

# SIMPLY PUT, WE OWN THE SOFTWARE

Ludeon owns the Software and retains all ownership of the Software. The only
permissions you have in connection with the Software are the permissions laid
out in this EULA. Any use of our Software that is not expressly permitted by
this EULA is strictly prohibited.

If you come to us with a suggestion for any one of our websites, games, or
other products, that suggestion is made for free and we have no obligation to
accept or consider it. When you send us a suggestion, you do so on a non-
confidential and non-proprietary basis; and you hereby grant us an
irrevocable, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, sublicenseable, and
transferrable licence to use your suggestion however we want. Also, whenever
you provide us with a suggestion, you hereby waive any moral rights or other
rights of authorship that you may have in the suggestion, in our favour. This
means we can use or not use your suggestion in any way we want and we don't
have to pay you for it or give you credit. If you think you have a suggestion
that we would be willing to pay you for, please do not submit your suggestion
unless you have first told us you expect to be paid and we have responded in
writing by asking you to submit the suggestion.

# BEHAVIOUR

You may not, in connection with the Software or related forums:


* Harass, stalk, harm, intimidate, hurt, abuse, threaten, or deceive others;
*
* Use or attempt to use another user's account;
*
* Encourage any conduct that restricts or inhibits anyone's use or enjoyment of
the Software, or which, as determined by us, may harm us or users of the Software
or expose us or them to liability;
*
* Impersonate any person or entity, or falsely state or otherwise misrepresent
you or your affiliation with any person or entity, including giving the impression
that any content you upload, post, transmit, distribute, or otherwise make
available comes from us;
*
* Interfere with or attempt to interfere with the proper working of our Software
or Website;
*
* Violate the terms of use of any third-party website or service that is linked
to the Software, including any Third Party Platforms or payment processors;
*
* Upload, transmit, distribute, store, or otherwise make available in any way any
viruses, or other material that is malicious or technologically harmful; any
unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, solicitations, promotional materials,
"junk mail," "spam," "chain letters," "pyramid schemes," or any other prohibited
form of solicitation; any private information of any third party; or
*
* Violate, or promote the violation of, any applicable federal, provincial,
local, foreign, or international law or regulation, including any laws regarding
the export of data or software, patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or
other intellectual property or legal rights (including the rights of publicity and
privacy of others).

In addition to the above rules, if you participate in an official Ludeon


discussion forum, or one controlled by Ludeon staff, you are required to
follow the rules of that forum as they are written at any particular time you
participate there.

If you do not abide by this EULA or any applicable forum rules, we may, in our
sole discretion, suspend, block, or delete your account as we see fit.

# IF YOU BUY A LICENCE TO RIMWORLD DIRECTLY FROM US

If you buy a licence to RimWorld directly from us on our Website, then these
additional terms apply to you.

When you provide us with the information necessary to process payment, you
must provide us with true, accurate, and current information. By providing us
with payment information, you expressly authorize our third party payment
processor to charge you the applicable purchase price on the provided payment
method, as well as taxes and other charges related thereto. The prices that
are listed on our Website are subject to change at any time and we may decide,
at any time, to stop offering any product or service on our Website.

Unless prohibited by applicable law, all purchases that you make on our
Website are final and non-refundable.

# IF YOU BUY A LICENCE TO RIMWORLD FROM A THIRD PARTY PLATFORM

We've already said this above, but if you buy a licence to RimWorld from a
Third Party Platform, those Third Party Terms will apply to your purchase. We
are not responsible for any purchases you make on or through Third Party
Platforms. If you have any issue with your Third Party Platform purchase,
please contact them.

# TERMINATION

We can terminate this EULA if you breach any of the terms. This means that the
License and your permission to use the Software and create Derivative Works
can be revoked. This is pretty serious, so please be sure you understand this.
It means, for example, that if you distribute the Software to pirates, or
break rules on the forum, or break any other rule in this EULA, we can revoke
your access to RimWorld with no refund or demand that you take down any User
Content or Mods.

You can terminate this EULA at any time by simply uninstalling the Software
from all your machines.

If the EULA is terminated, you no longer have any of the rights to the
Software given in the License (though you do, of course, retain rights to your
Derivative Works). Even if this EULA is terminated, the Derivative Licence
(our licence to your content) remains in perpetuity, as do provisions this
EULA relating to our ownership of the Software, the disclaimers, limits of
liability, indemnities, the laws applicable to this EULA, dispute resolution,
and the "General Terms" found at the end of this EULA.

# UPDATES

Ludeon might make updates to the Software available from time to time, but
isn't obligated to do so. Ludeon also isn't obligated to provide any ongoing
support or maintenance for the Software. When you purchase a Licence to the
Software, you purchase that Licence to the Software as it is.

We may sell the Software during an 'early access' or 'alpha' or 'beta' release
period (or something similar), but this doesn't mean we're obligated to add
any particular amount of content or to fix any particular amount of bugs
before releasing the game as its final version. We are allowed to declare the
Software finished, and cease updates, at any time. Of course, we want to make
the game fulfill our vision, and be quite bug-free, but we are not obligated
to do any particular amount of additional work.

Ludeon reserves the right to modify the terms of this EULA from time to time
and will post notice of material changes on our Website. Each time you
download our Software, including an update, or use one of our online services,
you agree to the latest version of the EULA that's posted on our Website. That
means, if you use the Software only in offline mode and don't use the updates
we make available, then the EULA you last agreed to applies. However, if you
do download the updates, or use parts of the Software that rely on us
providing ongoing online services, then the current EULA will apply to you.

# DISCLAIMERS

You are aware and agree that your use of the Software and the media on which
it is recorded, if any, is at your sole risk. As mentioned above, the Software
is provided "as is" and as it is available. Ludeon expressly disclaims all
other warranties, statutory, express or implied, including but not limited to
the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular
purpose. Ludeon does not warrant that the Software will meet your requirements
or desires. You bear the whole risk as to its quality and performance.
You acknowledge that our Software, or any part of our Software, may be
interrupted for maintenance, or reasons beyond our control, and we cannot
guarantee that the Software will always be available or that defects in the
operation or functionality of the Software will be corrected. You acknowledge
that from time to time, Ludeon may, in our sole discretion, release updates to
our Software and that such updates may break a Mod's compatibility with our
Software. You further acknowledge that Ludeon is under no obligation to ensure
or otherwise provide for any interoperability between our Software and any
Mods or other third party software. You also acknowledge that data, messages,
and materials sent over the internet may not be completely private, and your
anonymity is not guaranteed.

We administer and operate the Software from Canada. Although the Software is
accessible in many territories throughout the world, not all of our products
and their features, referenced on our Website are available to everyone in all
geographic locations or appropriate for use outside Canada. We reserve the
right to limit, in our sole discretion, the provision and quantity of any
feature, product or Software to any person or geographic area. If you choose
to download and use the Services from outside Canada, you do so on your own
initiative and you are solely responsible for complying with applicable local
laws.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of certain warranties, so if


you live in one of those jurisdictions, some of the above exclusions may not
apply to you.

# INDEMNITIES

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to, at your sole
cost, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Ludeon and our directors,
employees, and contractors, from and against any and all claims, liabilities,
costs, fines, penalties, and expenses, including legal fees and expenses,
arising out of or in any way connected with: (i) a breach by you of any
obligation, representation, or warranty you have under this EULA; or (ii) your
violation of any applicable laws, rules, regulations, or contracts; (all of
the foregoing, "Claims and Losses"). You will cooperate as fully required by
us in the defense of any Claims and Losses. At all times, we retain the
exclusive right to settle, compromise, and pay any and all Claims and Losses.
We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any Claims
and Losses at our own cost. You will not settle any Claims and Losses without,
in each instance, our prior written consent.

# LIMIT OF LIABILITY

You hold Ludeon blameless for any harm or damage that you may incur as a
result of your use of the Software or our Website, or from any actions or
inactions of Ludeon in connection with the Software or our Website. This means
that you agree that in no event will Ludeon or our directors, employees,
contractors, be liable to you or any other person for any indirect,
consequential, special, incidental, punitive, or exemplary damages, under any
theory of liability, including without limitation any damages for lost
profits, lost revenue, lost goodwill, or lost opportunity, even if we could
have foreseen such damages or were made aware of the possibility of such
damages. You hereby waive, release, and forever discharge Ludeon from and
against all of the above excluded damages. In no event will Ludeon's total
liability to you with respect to the Software, the Website, or any related
products and services exceed the total amount paid by you to Ludeon in respect
of the Software.
Nothing in this EULA limits our liability for death or bodily injury resulting
from our negligence or fraudulent misrepresentations.

Some jurisdictions do not allow for certain limitations or exclusions of


liability in agreements like this EULA, so if you live in one of those
jurisdictions, certain aspects of the above limit and exclusion of liability
may not apply to you. With that said, to the extent that any applicable
authority holds any portion of this limit and exclusion of liability will be
limited to the fullest possible extent permitted by applicable law.

# DISPUTES BETWEEN US

This EULA is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal
laws of Canada that apply in Ontario. You agree that all disputes regarding
this EULA will be brought before the courts located in the City of Toronto
that have the appropriate jurisdiction to hear the dispute.

# GENERAL TERMS

This EULA constitutes the whole legal agreement between you and Ludeon
regarding your use of the Software or our Website, and completely replace any
prior agreements between you and Ludeon in relation to the Software or our
Website.

We may at any time assign our rights and obligations under this EULA, in whole
or in part, without notice to you. You may not assign this EULA or any of your
rights and obligations hereunder, without our prior, written consent.

Our failure to insist upon or enforce any provision of this EULA will not be
construed as a waiver of any provision or right that we may have.

If any court of law, having jurisdiction to decide on this matter, rules that
any provision of this EULA is invalid, then that provision will be removed
from this EULA without affecting the rest of this EULA, and the remaining
provisions of this EULA will continue to be valid and enforceable.

END OF EULA

-------------------------------

?GOG.COM USER AGREEMENT

## 1\. ABOUT THIS AGREEMENT

1.1 This Agreement is a contract between you (we will further call you just
�you�) and GOG sp. z o.o., Jagiellonska 74, 03-301 Warsaw, Poland (we will
further call ourselves �GOG� or just �us�) and applies to www.GOG.COM, your
GOG user account, GOG GALAXY application (including GOG GALAXY store), any
games or videos or other content or services which you purchase or access via
us, the GOG web forums, GOG customer and technical support and other services
we provide to you (we'll just call all this �GOG services� for short). Here we
set out your rights and obligations as a recipient of GOG services.
1.2. Additional terms may apply to GOG services and in such a case we will
post them for your acceptance. For example, if you would like to use the GOG
GALAXY application, the relevant terms will be posted for your acceptance
before you start using these services.

1.3 Also, when we're talking about games, in-game content, virtual items or
currency or GOG videos or other content or services which you can purchase or
access via GOG services, we�ll just call them �GOG games� or �GOG videos�
respectively and when we talk about them all together they are �GOG content�.

1.4 We didn�t want to make this document too long, but keep in mind that by
accepting our User Agreement you also accept:

* our [ Privacy Policy ](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/212632109) \- which


explains what data we collect from you and how we protect it,

* [ GOG Code of Conduct ](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/16033977811613)


which is a set of rules you need to follow as part of our community,

* [ Infringing Content and Copyright Policy


](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/16033687971613) which explains how you can
report unlawful content on GOG and what happens when you do.

1.5 GOG works with trusted partners, including our related company CD PROJEKT
S.A., developers and publishers, payment providers, customer service software
providers and others (�Partners�) � more on them later in this Agreement.

1.6 If you're over 18, then welcome! If you're between 16 and 18, before we
extend an equally warm welcome, please ask your parent or guardian to review
and approve this Agreement on your behalf (because in some countries people
under a certain age cannot legally enter into contracts like this Agreement).
If you�re not 16 yet you cannot have a GOG account or use the GOG services
because legally we cannot handle personal data of children without a special
parental or guardian�s permission (but your parents/guardians are welcome to
sign up themselves).

## 2\. USING GOG SERVICES AND GOG CONTENT

2.1 We give you and other GOG users the personal right (known legally as a
'license') to use GOG services and to download, access and/or stream
(depending on the content) and use GOG content. This license is for your
personal use. We can stop or suspend this license in some situations, which
are explained later on.

2.2 When you buy, access or install GOG games, you might have to agree to
additional contract terms with the developer/publisher of the game (e.g. they
might ask you to agree to a game specific End User License Agreement). If
there is any inconsistency or dispute between those �EULAs� and this
Agreement, then this Agreement wins.

2.3 With GOG videos, you can also stream purchased video content or download
it to watch the way you want.

2.4 Using certain third-party scripts is recommended for your full use of GOG
functionality and, although that usage is optional, we cannot promise full
service performance without them.

2.5 A quick word about GOG GALAXY, which is our (optional) application which
not only allows you to buy and access GOG content but also provides cool
features like unified game library, and one friends list across platforms,
online multiplayer, achievements, cross-platform chat, game-time tracking,
cloud-saves and game overlay. You can learn more about
it[here](https://www.gog.com/galaxy).

2.6 In some parts of GOG services, we use recommendation systems to present


you the content that you are most likely to be interested in. You can learn
where we use them and how they work[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/articles/16034228157213), including what main parameters we use and how to
influence them.

## 3\. GOG ACCOUNT

3.1 To buy GOG content from GOG services, and in some cases to play/use GOG
content where our partners require use of a GOG account, you will need to set
up a GOG account. This will involve creating a password (which is encrypted so
we can�t access it) and a username, plus giving us (for identification
purposes) your email address. Please make sure your login credentials are kept
secure and your account is used properly. In your GOG account settings you can
also optionally set your country of residence, birthday and avatar. Our
Privacy Policy gives more details about the information we collect from you
and how we use it and protect it.
It's[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/212632109).

3.2 You can use your GOG account to set up a public profile accessible by
other people. You can also use your GOG account to connect with other GOG
users. Please act sensibly and remember you are responsible for your own
actions.

3.3 Your GOG account and GOG content are personal to you and cannot be shared
with, sold, gifted or transferred to anyone else. Your access to and use of
them is subject to GOG�s [ Privacy Policy
](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/212632109) and [ Code of Conduct
](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/16033977811613) which are updated or
amended when necessary.

3.4. Access to and use of the games purchased from different platforms (i.e.
with what we call �Keyless Access�), including their minimum system
requirements is governed by respective third-party platform policies and (as
applicable) additional contract terms with the developer/publisher of the game
(e.g. they might ask you to agree to a game specific End User License
Agreement). It may require having a third-party platform account. These
platforms may roll out patches or updates for your purchased games.

## 4\. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

4.1 Because GOG gives you access to many different services and games created
at different times and via different platforms, we cannot give you one set of
system requirements for all GOG services or GOG content. Please make sure your
computer and Internet connection are good enough to use GOG services and play
GOG games and videos.

4.2 What we can tell you is that using any GOG game will require a computer,
equipped with a mouse and keyboard (touchscreen controls are not supported),
with an appropriate operating system (please refer to the relevant GOG product
page) with all service packs and important updates installed on it. All GOG
games should be natively installed on a computer that meets or exceeds the
minimum hardware and software specifications shown on the GOG product page.
GOG games are not tested on virtual machine software and therefore we do not
support playing through them.

4.3 For GOG videos, please make sure your video player supports the videos�
format specified in the GOG product page.

4.4 If you have questions about system requirements, please contact


us[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/requests/new?category=info&product=gog). Just so we're clear, you are
responsible for making sure you have sufficient Internet access to download
purchased GOG games or GOG videos from us or to stream GOG videos and that
your system can play GOG games and watch GOG videos.

## 5\. BETAS

5.1 As GOG develops, we may offer you optional access to 'beta' versions of
GOG software or services (e.g. new versions of the GOG GALAXY application made
available prior to its general release) or GOG content.
Here are the rules:

a) We (or any applicable publisher/partner) will set the conditions and


requirements for your beta access. Providing and maintaining a beta, and who
can use a beta, is at our discretion.

b) You may be required to go through a registration process or other


requirements to access the beta (and this may include you meeting eligibility
criteria).

c) Betas will be time-limited and there may be extra contract requirements.

d) The beta may involve temporary or permanent server/progress/content wipes,


resets or amendments.

e) The beta may be subject to confidentiality restrictions (which will be


notified to you in advance if so).

f) You may be invited to participate in a feedback process regarding the beta


� this is totally optional but would be really valued.

g) The beta is for your personal use and enjoyment, so you must not sell, loan
or otherwise transfer it to anyone else.

h) The point of you getting beta access is to allow you to try something new,
but we would expect you to recognise that it will not be complete yet.
Therefore betas will be provided 'as is' without any additional promises from
us or any liability on us if it is not complete or does not work fully or
causes issues. Betas may not be totally feature-complete and there may be
feature changes, modifications or removals during the beta.

## 6\. PAYING FOR GOG CONTENT AND GETTING REFUNDS

### Paying for GOG content

6.1 After you decide that you like a GOG game, GOG video or other GOG content,
you usually will need to pay for it before you can access it (though we do
have some free content too!). You can pay in different ways: (i) using a valid
debit or credit card; or (ii) using PayPal or any other authorized payment
provider. Remember to keep your payment details secure.
6.2 When you use a payment method to buy GOG content, we're relying on your
promise that you're able to use that method. You are responsible for any
purchases made using your GOG account or payment method and you agree to the
pricing, payment and billing policies applicable to them, as notified to you
at the time of purchase. All payments are non-refundable and non-transferable
except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

6.3 You can always pay for GOG content in US Dollars. However if you happen to
live in countries where your local currency is supported (see our Support
section [ here ](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/articles/360001947034?product=gog) for details), you will be able to pay in
your local currency. You might have to pay a currency conversion charge if you
are not paying in your home currency and some banks might also add other kinds
of transaction fees.

6.4. All prices are visible in the product catalog page. They�re inclusive of
taxes like VAT, if applicable. You should also expect some sales taxes/VAT to
be added to your price at checkout, if required by your local laws (f.ex. in
US or Canada).

### GOG Wallet

6.5 GOG offers users a digital account balance called the �GOG Wallet� in
connection with your user account, which you can use to make purchases of GOG
content on dedicated GOG services. Funds can be added to it in two ways: (i)
using your chosen payment method; or (ii) by us as part of our �Voluntary
Refund Policy� (see link[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/articles/360006129837?product=galaxy)) in which case we may offer refunds
to GOG Wallet that you can use to get a replacement GOG game or other GOG
content. The GOG Wallet is made available subject to rules which are set out
on our GOG Wallet page[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/articles/360001941953-FAQ-GOG-Wallet?product=galaxy).

### GOG Bonus Codes

6.6. We may also issue usually time-limited bonus codes which give you free or
reduced price access to GOG content (we�ll call them �Bonus Codes�). If you
receive Bonus Codes when you buy GOG content but later decide to return that
GOG content, then we think it�s fair for you to return the Bonus Codes too.
Therefore, we will terminate it or, if it has been redeemed for a GOG game,
that game will be removed from your account.

### Direct to Account Distribution

6.7 We have a direct to account distribution feature (we�ll call it �GOG


Direct to Account) where distribution platforms who partner with us would be
able to sell games or other content to you, where you could choose for that
game/content to be automatically activated within your GOG account, without
the need to redeem any codes. Just to be clear, the whole purchase process is
handled by the other platform, so in case of any issues with the purchase
process please speak with them directly. For this particular matter therefore,
we cannot offer you Our Voluntary Refund Policy (because GOG didn�t sell the
game/content). Of course, anything connected to our platform�s services is
still our responsibility.

## 7\. REFUNDS AND RETURNS

### Statutory refund rights

7.1. If you are a resident of the European Union or other applicable


jurisdictions (excluding the USA), then you have the statutory right to
withdraw from a purchase of GOG content within 14 days of your purchase,
without giving a reason. To exercise the right of withdrawal, you should
inform us of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal
statement (an email sent to support@GOG.COM, or a physical letter at an
address set out in Section 23 below). You may use the model withdrawal form
attached at the end of this Agreement, but you do not have to. To meet the
withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication
concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal
period has expired. However, this does not apply where you have expressly
consented to the performance of the GOG content (which is digital content)
beginning immediately upon conclusion of the purchase process and have
acknowledged the loss of your withdrawal rights.

7.2. Neither this nor any other part of this User Agreement affects your
statutory rights. In particular:

a) For Australian Users: Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be
excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement
or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably
foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired
or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does
not amount to a major failure. Details[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/articles/360025857893?product=gog).

b) For New Zealand Users: Neither this nor any other part of this User
Agreement excludes, restricts or modifies the application of any right or
remedy that cannot be so excluded, restricted or modified including those
conferred by the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. Under this Act are
guarantees which include that goods and services are of acceptable quality. If
this guarantee is not met there are entitlements to have the software remedied
(which may include repair, replacement or refund). If a remedy cannot be
provided or the failure is of a substantial character, the act provides for a
refund.

### Our Voluntary Refund Policy

7.3. We understand that sometimes a purchase doesn't turn out how you expected
and we want to be fair to GOG users. This is why on top of your statutory
refund rights (described in section 7.1.-7.2. above) we may offer you a
Voluntary Refund Policy described[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/articles/360006129837?product=galaxy). In some rare cases if we have
reasonable doubts regarding your refund request we may not apply the Voluntary
Refund Policy. In no case this will deprive you of any applicable statutory
refund rights. A sale is considered final once your refund rights expire
(unless we agree otherwise on a case by case basis).

## 8\. VIRTUAL ITEMS AND VIRTUAL CURRENCY

8.1 With certain GOG content you may be able to purchase or acquire virtual
items and/or virtual currency (we�ll call them �Virtual Goods� for short).
Virtual Goods are subject to this Agreement and in particular the following
default rules, unless there are specific rules for that GOG content (which
will prevail over these rules).

8.2 Virtual Goods are digital items only with no cash-value or real world
existence and cannot be �bought�, �sold�, gifted, transferred or redeemed,
exchanged for other Virtual Goods, �real world� money, goods, services or
items of monetary value. Trading Virtual Goods is prohibited (unless you are
specifically permitted to do so). Your right to use any Virtual Goods is
limited to a limited, nonexclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable, non-
sublicensable, revocable license to use them solely for your personal
entertainment and non-commercial use in the applicable GOG content. You have
no property interest or right or title in any Virtual Goods, which remains the
appropriate publisher�s property. Virtual Goods may be changed, amended or
reversed if necessary, including to enforce this Agreement. If necessary,
limits may be placed on the use of Virtual Goods (including transaction limits
and balance amounts).

8.3 The existence of a particular offer for Virtual Goods is not a commitment
by us to maintain or continue to make the Virtual Goods or that offer
available in the future. The scope, variety and type of Virtual Goods that you
may obtain can change and we have the right to manage, modify and remove
Virtual Goods if we consider necessary for the ongoing operation of GOG or GOG
content or for other legitimate reasons, in which case we will have no
liability to you or anyone for the exercise of such rights. We will make
reasonable efforts to notify you of any such change and to explain the reason
for such change.

## 9\. PATCHES, UPDATES AND CHANGES

9.1 Occasionally we may need to patch or update GOG services or GOG content
(for example to add or remove features or to resolve software bugs). We need
these rights in order to keep GOG running efficiently and safely. Not patching
or updating the GOG services or GOG content may result in inferior performance
of your version or incompatibility of your version with some of the GOG
services or GOG content features. Doing so, you are also risking not
installing important security updates. Our Partners may use GOG services to
roll out patches or updates for applicable GOG content.

## 10\. OWNERSHIP OF GOG SERVICES AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

10.1 GOG services including (but not limited to) their graphics, computer
code, user interface, look and feel, audio, video, text, layout, databases,
data and all other content, and all legal and exploitation rights regarding
them are either owned by us or we license them from third parties. GOG content
is owned by its developers/publishers and licensed by us. All rights are
reserved except as we have explained in this Agreement. You may not use or
exploit any part of the GOG services or GOG content except as explained in
this Agreement.

10.2. GOG respects the intellectual property rights of others. Please read
more[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/16033687971613).

## 11\. RULES FOR USING GOG SERVICES

11.1 Please follow these rules regarding the GOG services and GOG content, and
any additional rules we link in 11.2 below. Please read these rules carefully
since failure to follow them (particularly those in relation to cheating) will
be considered a material breach of this Agreement, which could lead to
suspension or cancellation of your access to GOG services. Here are the rules:

(a) Only use GOG services or GOG content for your personal enjoyment (for
example, don't use them to make money, for piracy or for political purposes).

(b) Regarding GOG content, what you can do practically apart from playing the
games (like create derivative works of it) depends on what the GOG content
rights holder allows you to do (GOG can�t grant such rights). So please check
this with the rights holder directly (the first thing you should do though is
to check if they have a EULA and if so what it says). We also ask that you
make only genuine attempts to improve the GOG content.

(c) Regarding GOG services (which includes GOG software), unless you have
prior GOG permission please don�t modify, merge, distribute, translate,
reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works of them �
unless you�re allowed in this Agreement or by the law in your country. We�d
like to emphasize that you are free to contact us for permission to do these
things and we will review and respond to those requests in good faith. More
generally, at some point in the future we want to open client protocols to
make it easier for users to work with GOG data/software without any need for
reverse engineering or similar techniques.

(d) Don't hack, harm, grief, interrupt or misuse GOG services or GOG content,
GOG users or GOG personnel or use them for any similar purpose.

(e) Do not create, use, make available and/or distribute cheats, exploits,
automation software, robots, bots, mods, hacks, spiders, spyware, cheats,
scripts, trainers, extraction tools or other software that interact with or
affect GOG services or GOG content in any way (including, without limitation,
any unauthorized third party programs that intercept, emulate, or redirect any
communication between GOG or its partners and GOG services and/or any
unauthorized third party programs that collect information about GOG
services).
(f) Don't interfere with the GOG or third party network software or other
software including via tunnelling, code injection, modifying or changing GOG
software, using any other similar software together with GOG services or GOG
content, through protocol emulation, or through creation or use of private
servers regarding GOG services or GOG content. Do not access or attempt to
access areas of GOG.COM, GOG GALAXY or GOG servers that have not been made
available to the public.

(g) Don't do or say anything which is or may be considered racist, xenophobic,


sexist, defamatory or otherwise offensive or illegal (f.ex. exploiting minors,
encouraging violence, engaging in fraud). Be nice to each other please!

(h) Don�t share, �buy�, �sell�, transfer, gift, lend, steal, misappropriate or
misuse GOG accounts. GOG keys/codes can only be gifted or transferred or used
in the ways permitted by GOG. If you have any questions or problems, contact
customer support.

(i) We ask you to follow any applicable geographic or regional, language or


location-based restrictions, requirements or rules regarding GOG.

(j) We ask you not to do anything in connection with GOG that infringes any
copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, privacy, publicity, or other right
of others, such as images, photographs, sound files, text files, graphics
files, and any other material or information.

11.2 In addition to the above, below is the list of additional terms that
apply to you when using GOG services. We do not want to repeat ourselves, but
it is important to remember that if you fail to follow them, it will be a
material breach of this Agreement, which could lead to a suspension or
cancellation of your access to GOG services. Here is the list:

* GOG Code of Conduct


([link](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/16033977811613))

* Infringing Content and Copyright Policy


([link](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/16033687971613)).

11.3 Every time we make a moderation decision resulting in restricting your


access to GOG services, whenever it is possible you should receive a statement
of reasons outlining why we have made this decision. If you do not agree with
the decision we have made, you have 6 months from the day that you have been
informed about the decision, to make a complaint. The details on how to make a
complaint should be available in your moderation decision. The description of
our complaint-handling system procedure is also available in the Infringing
Content & Copyright Policy
([here](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/16033687971613)).

## 12\. USER GENERATED CONTENT

12.1 This section is about content (e.g. text, photos or links) which you make
available either to us or to other GOG users via GOG services (for example
through your profile picture or through messages to other GOG users). We'll
call this "User Generated Content".

12.2 As far as we and you are concerned, you own any User Generated Content
but we need you to give us some limited rights over it so that we can actually
transmit it through GOG services. So, by posting User Generated Content you
give us a nonexclusive, irrevocable license to use, modify, reproduce, create
derivative works from, distribute, transmit, communicate and publicly
display/perform your User Generated Content in connection with GOG services.

12.3 It is your responsibility to make sure that you have all necessary legal
rights before you use User Generated Content and for checking they are safe to
use � we can't know that ourselves, and we can't check it for you, so we have
to rely on you.

12.4. However, we have the right (but not the obligation) to review and if
appropriate or legally necessary to remove any User Generated Content which is
unlawful, tortious, defamatory, obscene, invasive of the privacy of another
person, threatening, harassing, abusive, hateful, racist or pornographic. If
you find that any such content has been posted on GOG services, please let us
know. We ask you to read our Infringing Content and Copyright Policy
([link](https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/16033687971613)), where we explain
our procedure for reporting infringing content. If you still feel your case is
not fully resolved after our internal procedure, you have access to an out-of-
court dispute settlement - more on this in Section 20 below.

## 13\. FEEDBACK OR SUGGESTIONS

13.1 You�re welcome to give us feedback and suggestions to improve GOG


services and we really value them all. However, just so we�re clear, we don�t
have to use or accept them and we won�t owe you anything (financially or
otherwise) regarding them.

## 14\. USING GOG CONTENT IN FAN WORK

14.1 For fan work (e.g. works like fan mods, machinima, parodies, homages,
'Let's Play' or other videos or artwork), you need to check with the content
owner (e.g. the developer or publisher) if they are OK with it and if so you
should get permission from them. The reason is simple � the GOG content is the
property of the respective owner, not ours.

## 15\. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT AND EXTERNAL SERVICES

15.1 You might get links to third-party websites or content through GOG
services which aren�t connected to us. Using them is up to you � we�re not
responsible for them, we can't promise they will work, what they'll be like or
if they're free.
15.2 You can also use your GOG account to get easy access to some external,
GOG approved partner services, e.g. The Witcher games and sites from our
sister company CD PROJEKT RED. They will have their own terms and conditions
which you will need to agree and follow. Just to be clear: using these
services is all optional and up to you. You have the power!

## 16\. WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY REGARDING GOG SERVICES

16.1 We warrant that: (i) we have the right to enter this Agreement and to
grant you the license to use GOG services in section 2.1; and (ii) we will
take reasonable care with the GOG services and your use of them; and (iii) we
will use reasonable endeavors to comply with applicable laws in performing our
obligations to you under this Agreement.

16.2. Your representations and warranties. You represent and warrant that you
have the full power and ability to enter into this Agreement and will fully
follow its terms. You also represent and warrant that any User Generated
Content, which you transmit via GOG services does not infringe upon the
intellectual property rights of any third party. You further represent and
warrant that you will not use or contribute User Generated Content that is
unlawful, tortious, defamatory, obscene, invasive of the privacy of another
person, threatening, harassing, abusive, hateful, racist or pornographic.

16.3. We work hard to try to make GOG content work on your systems but we only
have limited time to carry out tests and we don't always get everything right.
Therefore, we can't accept any liability or responsibility for GOG content
except where required by law (see 7.1.-7.2 above). We are also not responsible
for anything that happens to GOG.COM or GOG services which is outside of our
control and we do not guarantee GOG services will work 100% of the time.
However, don't forget you may be entitled to GOG content return and refund if
it has technical issues - see section 7.3.

## 17\. TERMINATION

17.1 Your right to terminate the Agreement. You may terminate this Agreement
at any time and without giving any reason by completely ceasing to use GOG
services. If you would like us to delete your account please contact our
Support Team [ here ](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/requests/new?category=info&product=gog) or simply by sending an email
request to privacy@gog.com. Termination will not affect already existing
rights or obligations of us or you.

17.2. Our right to terminate the Agreement. If you materially breach this
Agreement, we reserve the right to suspend or cancel your access to GOG
services and GOG content. By material breach of the Agreement we mean a
serious breach which could cause significant harm to GOG, GOG users, as well
as, in particular breach of the provisions of section 11 above or GOG Code of
Conduct. If we suspend or cancel your access to GOG services or GOG content
we'll take reasonable steps to contact you to explain why we have done this
and what (if anything) you can do as a result.
17.3 It seems very unlikely, but if we have to stop providing access to GOG
services and GOG content permanently (not because of any breach by you), we
will try to give you at least sixty (60) days advance notice by posting a note
on www.GOG.COM and sending an email to every registered user � during that
time you should be able to download any GOG content you purchased.

## 18\. FORCE MAJEURE

18.1 Neither you nor us will be liable for any failure to perform any
obligation under this Agreement or to provide access to GOG services and GOG
content if that failure is caused by the happening of any unforeseen event
beyond your or our reasonable control including without limitation, Internet
outages, communications outages, fire, flood, war or act of God.

## 19\. GOVERNING LAW

### For users resident in the European Union and elsewhere in the world (but
not the USA):

19.1 You and we agree that your use of GOG services and GOG content and this
Agreement will be governed by and interpreted according to the laws of the
Republic of Poland and that any dispute regarding this Agreement will be heard
non-exclusively by the courts of the Republic of Poland. In any legal claim
under this Agreement, the side which wins will be entitled to its legal fees
and expenses.

19.2. The above choice of governing law and jurisdiction is subject to any
mandatorily applicable principles of consumer protection or other law in your
jurisdiction of residence which would not otherwise be available.

### For users in the USA only:

19.3 You and we agree that your use of GOG services and GOG content, and this
Agreement, will be deemed to be entered into in Los Angeles, California and
governed by and interpreted according to the laws of the State of California,
USA (and, if applicable, US federal law). Any legal claim by you against GOG
will be made exclusively in any state or federal court located in Los Angeles,
California, which will have subject matter jurisdiction regarding the dispute
between you and us and therefore we both consent to the exclusive jurisdiction
of those courts. In any legal claim under this Agreement, the side which wins
will be entitled to its legal fees and expenses.

## 20\. CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

20.1.If you have concerns, claims or issues with us, we hope we can resolve
them quickly and amicably. Please contact
us[here](https://support.gog.com/hc/en-
us/requests/new?category=info&product=gog). We will make reasonable and good
faith efforts to resolve any dispute between us informally. We undertake to
answer any claim within 14 days.

20.2. If it is not resolved during this time, the next steps depend on where
you live. If you live within the EU you may submit your legal claims to the
online dispute resolution platform operated and provided by the European
Commission which can be accessed via http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/ in
order to reach an out of court settlement or initiate a lawsuit. You may also
choose to resolve your dispute through any out-of-court dispute settlement
body certified by your country�s Digital Services Coordinator.

20.3. If you live in the USA or the rest of the world (but not the EU) then
please contact us at legal@gog.com.

## 21\. OTHER LEGAL STUFF

21.1 If any part of this Agreement is found not to be legally enforceable,


this will not affect any other part of it.

21.2 This Agreement (including any GOG additional terms referenced in it)
constitutes the entire agreement between you and us and supersedes any earlier
oral or written agreements. If you disagree with this, please contact us as
soon as possible after you start using GOG services at legal@gog.com since
otherwise this will be binding on you after a reasonable time period (usually
30 days).

21.3 This Agreement governs our relationship with you (and vice versa). It
does not create any rights for anyone else.

21.4 Please remember we are subject to various laws and we may be required to
comply with law enforcement or other legal requirements.

21.5 If there is a reorganization, sale or merger of GOG then we may need to


work with relevant third parties to transfer or merge your GOG account.

21.6. You and we agree that the UN Convention on Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement.

21.7 We can assign, subcontract or transfer this Agreement to a third party or


another member of our group if necessary for the support of GOG, as part of
any reorganization or merger or for other business reasons. We will notify you
if this happens.

21.8. If you are a European Union citizen, then please be aware that GOG has
enabled cross-border portability on free and paid content pursuant to
Regulation (EU) 2017/1128 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14
June 2017 on cross-border portability of online content services in the
internal market, but this is subject to any other legal requirements on GOG
including regarding IP protection and may also be subject to any requirements
of developer and publisher partners of GOG.

## 22\. CHANGES TO THIS AGREEMENT

22.1 We may change this Agreement if we think it's necessary, e.g. for legal
reasons or to reflect changes in GOG services or GOG content. If so, we will
make the changed Agreement available online at
https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/212632089 and (if you have a GOG account)
we will email you to let you know about any significant changes.

22.2 Any changes to the Agreement will come into force within 30 days of their
announcement online. In the meantime, you're welcome to contact us at
legal@GOG.COM if you have specific questions about the changes.

22.3 If you don't agree to those changes (regardless of whether you email us),
then unfortunately we must ask you to cease using GOG services and GOG
content. We're sorry we have to say that, but we hope you'll appreciate that
for GOG services to work properly we need to have everyone using it under the
same rules instead of different people having different rules. That's why we
encourage you to get in contact if you have queries or concerns.

22.4 Just so you know, we'll never just make a bunch of changes to this
Agreement, not tell you what they are and force you to agree to changes you
don't understand before you can use GOG services!
