|
||
|
||
During the term of this Agreement, you expressly acknowledge and agree that if
|
||
you are a Unity Personal or Unity Plus user and the above thresholds are
|
||
exceeded, then you may no longer use that tier of the Unity Software, and you
|
||
must either: (a) purchase Unity Plus (if eligible) or Unity Pro; or (b) destroy
|
||
all copies of the Unity Software in your possession or control, and cease
|
||
updating Your Project Content. Unity will monitor your compliance with and
|
||
enforce these restrictions and requirements including but not limited to
|
||
monitoring the number of downloads of Your Project Content and any available
|
||
revenue estimate data.
|
||
|
||
Unity Personal users may be required to complete a user survey in order to
|
||
activate the Unity Software.
|
||
|
||
**1. Rights to use the Unity Software.**
|
||
|
||
1. *Use Rights*. Conditioned upon your compliance with the terms and conditions
|
||
of this Agreement and payment of all applicable subscription fees, Unity
|
||
grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license: (a) to
|
||
install and execute the executable form of the Unity Software, solely for
|
||
internal use by a single person to develop Your Project Content during the
|
||
applicable term; and (b) if you are using a version of the Unity Software
|
||
other than an educational version, to distribute the runtime portion of the
|
||
Unity Software, on a royalty-free basis, solely as embedded or incorporated
|
||
into Your Project Content and solely to third parties to whom you license or
|
||
sell Your Project Content pursuant to an agreement that is no less
|
||
protective of Unity and its licensors as this Agreement. You may not
|
||
sublicense the rights granted under clause 1.1(a), but you may sublicense
|
||
the rights granted under 1.1(b) solely to third parties to whom you license
|
||
or sell Your Project Content to act as distributors thereof pursuant to an
|
||
agreement no less protective of Unity and its licensors as this Agreement.
|
||
|
||
2. *Copies of Unity Products*. You may install the Unity Software on both a
|
||
primary and a secondary computer or operating system, solely for your
|
||
convenience, but only for use by a single person. You may make a single copy
|
||
of the Unity Software solely for backup or archival purposes. For the sake
|
||
of clarity, you may only use one installation at any given time. We may in
|
||
our sole discretion authorize you to install the Unity Software on
|
||
additional computers or operating systems upon deactivation of the Unity
|
||
Software installed on existing computers.
|
||
|
||
3. *Unity Console Add-on Developer Requirements*. Use of the Unity Software
|
||
with certain console platforms is subject to the Unity Console Add-on
|
||
Developer Requirements as set forth on the Unity website. The license keys
|
||
to enable certain Unity Console Add-ons may be distributed by the console
|
||
manufacturer.
|
||
|
||
4. *Third Party Software*. The Unity Software incorporates or is bundled with
|
||
Third Party Software governed by separate terms, including open source
|
||
licenses. Such Third Party Software terms are identified in the LICENSE.TXT
|
||
file bundled with the Unity Software and incorporated into this Agreement by
|
||
reference. You agree that you have reviewed and accepted those terms and
|
||
that your use of the Unity Software will be deemed acceptance thereof.
|
||
|
||
|
||
**2. Restrictions.**
|
||
|
||
1. *Unity Software Tier Restrictions*. You acknowledge and agree that as an
|
||
express condition to the rights granted under Section 1, you are not
|
||
permitted to combine or integrate in any manner any of Your Project Content
|
||
developed with one tier of the Unity Software (e.g., Unity Personal) with
|
||
any of Your Project Content developed simultaneously with another tier
|
||
(e.g., Unity Plus or Unity Pro). For the avoidance of doubt: (a) if you are
|
||
a permitted user of Unity Personal, you may commence a project using only
|
||
Unity Personal and subsequently upgrade all (but not less than all) of your
|
||
seats to Unity Plus or Unity Pro, and (b) any user of the Unity Software may
|
||
use content licensed from third parties regardless of the tier of Unity
|
||
Software that was used to develop such third party content. You acknowledge
|
||
and agree that Unity may tag Your Project Content created with Unity
|
||
Personal and/or Unity Plus with an identifier to prevent such a prohibited
|
||
combination of Your Project Content.
|
||
|
||
2. *Educational Product Restrictions*. If you are using an educational version
|
||
of the Unity Software, your right to use the Unity Software and distribute
|
||
the runtime portion of the Unity Software in Your Project Content is limited
|
||
to educational, non-commercial purposes. Unity may include a watermark
|
||
designating that Your Project Content was created using the education
|
||
version of the Unity Software.
|
||
|
||
3. *Embedded Software Restriction*. You may not directly or indirectly
|
||
distribute Your Project Content installed on more than 1,000 electronic
|
||
devices or systems if Your Project Content provides the user interface or
|
||
primary functionality of such electronic device or system without a separate
|
||
license from Unity. This restriction does not prevent you from distributing
|
||
Your Project Content pre-installed on personal computers and consumer
|
||
electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablets, televisions or set top
|
||
boxes as long as Your Project Content does not provide the user interface or
|
||
primary functionality of such device.
|
||
|
||
4. *Streaming and Cloud Gaming Restrictions*. You may not directly or
|
||
indirectly distribute Your interactive Project Content by means of streaming
|
||
or broadcasting Your Project Content that is primarily executed on a server
|
||
and transmitted over the Internet or other network to end user devices
|
||
without a separate license from Unity. This restriction does not prevent end
|
||
users from remotely accessing Your Project Content from an end user device
|
||
that is running on another end user device.
|
||
|
||
5. *Gambling Restriction*. You may not distribute or publish any of Your
|
||
Project Content in connection with any Gambling Activities without a
|
||
separate license agreement from Unity.
|
||
|
||
6. *General Restrictions*. Except as expressly specified in this Agreement, you
|
||
may not: (a) copy (except in the course of loading or installing) or modify
|
||
or create derivative works of the Unity Software; (b) distribute, transfer,
|
||
sublicense, lease, lend, rent or otherwise provide access to the Unity
|
||
Software to any third party; (c) directly or indirectly make the
|
||
functionality of the Unity Software available to multiple users or third
|
||
parties through any means, including but not limited to by uploading the
|
||
Unity Software to a network or file-sharing service or through any hosting,
|
||
application services provider, service bureau, software-as-a-service (SaaS)
|
||
or any other technology or service; (d) use the Unity Software for
|
||
competitive analysis or to develop a competing product or service; or (e) do
|
||
anything that could cause or result in the Unity Software (including the
|
||
runtime portion thereof) being subject to any open source license (or
|
||
similar license) that requires as a condition of use, modification or
|
||
distribution that the Unity Software (including the runtime portion thereof)
|
||
or other software combined or distributed with the Unity Software be: (i)
|
||
disclosed or distributed in source code form; (ii) licensed for the purpose
|
||
of making derivative works; or (iii) redistributable at no charge. You
|
||
acknowledge and agree that portions of the Unity Software, including but not
|
||
limited to the source code and the specific design and structure of
|
||
individual modules or programs, are confidential and constitute or contain
|
||
trade secrets of Unity and its licensors. Accordingly, you agree not to
|
||
disassemble, decompile or reverse engineer the Unity Software, in whole or
|
||
in part, or permit or authorize a third party to do so, except to the extent
|
||
such activities are expressly permitted by this Agreement or by law
|
||
notwithstanding this prohibition. Notwithstanding the restriction
|
||
prohibiting decompiling in the immediately preceding sentence, you may
|
||
decompile the Unity Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) assemblies solely
|
||
to inspect their functionality for purposes of understanding or improving
|
||
performance of Your Project Content or any editor extension to the Unity
|
||
Software.
|
||
|
||
|
||
**3. Consent to Data Collection; Privacy Policy Obligations.**
|
||
|
||
1. You acknowledge and accept [Unity's privacy
|
||
policy.](https://unity3d.com/legal/privacy-policy) You agree that the Unity
|
||
Software (including the Unity runtime in Your Project Content) may send data
|
||
to Unity to: (a) check for Unity Software updates; (b) provide aggregated
|
||
usage statistics of your use of the Unity Software and the use of Your
|
||
Project Content by end users; (c) provide optional Developer Services; and
|
||
(d) validate seats in order to prevent unauthorized use. You acknowledge and
|
||
agree that Unity may deliver messages and contact you about the Unity
|
||
Software and other Unity product and service offerings.
|
||
|
||
2. You agree to distribute Your Project Content with a privacy policy
|
||
explaining the data you collect through Your Project Content and how you
|
||
collect, use, share, and protect it; and to include a disclosure that Unity
|
||
is your service provider and collects certain data from Your Project
|
||
Content, along with a link to [Unity's privacy
|
||
policy](https://unity3d.com/legal/privacy-policy), which may be updated from
|
||
time to time.
|
||
|
||
|
||
**4. Support.**
|
||
|
||
You may access the online forums and the Unity Answers knowledge base through
|
||
the Site. You may also email support\@unity3d.com for assistance with your
|
||
seats. Technical support may be offered by Unity at its sole discretion as
|
||
described on the Unity website. You acknowledge and agree that Unity has no
|
||
obligation under this Agreement to provide patches, updates, new releases or new
|
||
versions of the Unity Software.
|
||
|
||
**5. Term.**
|
||
|
||
Subscription based seats for Unity Pro and Unity Plus will remain in effect for
|
||
the initial subscription period (which has a minimum commitment of 12 months),
|
||
and thereafter such seat will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis at
|
||
the then-current list price, unless you renew the subscription for a new
|
||
subscription term or terminate and cancel it as described on the Site. For
|
||
clarity, subscription based seats for Unity Pro and Unity Plus are not
|
||
cancelable during the applicable subscription term and are non-refundable. Upon
|
||
termination, you must at Unity’s option either promptly delete and destroy or
|
||
return to Unity all copies of the Unity Software in your possession or control;
|
||
however, if you have subscribed to use a seat of the Unity Software for the
|
||
prior twenty-four (24) consecutive months, you may continue to use the
|
||
then-current version of the Unity Software for that seat after the subscription
|
||
term.
|
||
|
||
Paid in full, perpetual seats will remain in effect unless earlier terminated in
|
||
accordance with the Agreement.
