("Valve"). Please read it carefully.
SECTION 11 CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS HOW DISPUTES
ARE RESOLVED. PLEASE READ IT. IF YOU LIVE IN THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC (CANADA) OR THE EUROPEAN UNION,
SECTION 11 DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.
1. REGISTRATION AS A SUBSCRIBER; APPLICATION OF TERMS TO YOU; YOUR ACCOUNT ⏶
Steam is an online service offered by Valve.
You become a subscriber of Steam ("Subscriber") by completing the registration of a Steam user account. This Agreement takes effect
as soon as you indicate your acceptance of these terms. You may not become a subscriber if you are under the age of 13. Steam is not
intended for children under 13 and Valve will not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.
A. Contracting Party
For any interaction with Steam your contractual relationship is with Valve. Except as otherwise indicated at the time of the transaction
(such as in the case of purchases from another Subscriber in a Subscription Marketplace), any transactions for Subscriptions (as
defined below) you make on Steam are being made from Valve.
B. Subscriptions; Content and Services
As a Subscriber you may obtain access to certain services, software and content available to Subscribers. The Steam client software
and any other software, content, and updates you download or access via Steam, including but not limited to Valve or third-party video
games and in-game content, software associated with Hardware and any virtual items you trade, sell or purchase in a Steam
Subscription Marketplace are referred to in this Agreement as "Content and Services;" the rights to access and/or use any Content and
Services accessible through Steam are referred to in this Agreement as "Subscriptions."
Each Subscription allows you to access particular Content and Services. Some Subscriptions may impose additional terms specific to
that Subscription ("Subscription Terms") (for example, an end user license agreement specific to a particular game, or terms of use
specific to a particular product or feature of Steam). Also, additional terms (for example, payment and billing procedures) may be posted
on http://www.steampowered.com or within the Steam service ("Rules of Use"). Rules of Use include the Steam Online Conduct Rules
http://steampowered.com/index.php?area=online_conduct and the Steam Refund Policy http://store.steampowered.com/steam_refunds.
The Subscription Terms, the Rules of Use, and the Valve Privacy Policy (which can be found at
http://www.valvesoftware.com/privacy.htm) are binding on you once you indicate your acceptance of them or of this Agreement, or
otherwise become bound by them as described in Section 8 (Amendments to this Agreement).
C. Your Account
When you complete Steam’s registration process, you create a Steam account ("Account"). Your Account may also include billing
information you provide to Valve for the purchase of Subscriptions, Content and Services and any physical goods offered for purchase
through Steam (“Hardware”). You may not reveal, share or otherwise allow others to use your password or Account except as otherwise
specifically authorized by Valve. You are responsible for the confidentiality of your login and password and for the security of your
computer system. Valve is not responsible for the use of your password and Account or for all of the communication and activity on
Steam that results from use of your login name and password by you, or by any person to whom you may have intentionally or by
negligence disclosed your login and/or password in violation of this confidentiality provision. Unless it results from Valve’s negligence or
fault, Valve is not responsible for the use of your Account by a person who fraudulently used your login and password without your
permission. If you believe that the confidentiality of your login and/or password may have been compromised, you must notify Valve via
the support form (https://support.steampowered.com/newticket.php) without any delay.
Your Account, including any information pertaining to it (e.g.: contact information, billing information, Account history and Subscriptions,
etc.), is strictly personal. You may therefore not sell or charge others for the right to use your Account, or otherwise transfer your
Account, nor may you sell, charge others for the right to use, or transfer any Subscriptions other than if and as expressly permitted by
this Agreement (including any Subscription Terms or Rules of Use) or as otherwise specifically permitted by Valve.

Payment processing related to Content and Services and/or Hardware purchased on Steam is performed by either Valve Corporation
directly or by Valve’s fully owned subsidiary Valve GmbH on behalf of Valve Corporation depending on the type of payment method
used. If your card was issued outside the United States, your payment may be processed via a European acquirer by Valve GmbH on
behalf of Valve Corporation. For any other type of purchases, payment will be collected by Valve Corporation directly. In any case,
delivery of Content and Services as well as Hardware is performed by Valve Corporation.
2. LICENSES ⏶
A. General Content and Services License
Steam and your Subscription(s) require the download and installation of Content and Services onto your computer. Valve hereby grants,
and you accept, a non-exclusive license and right, to use the Content and Services for your personal, non-commercial use (except
where commercial use is expressly allowed herein or in the applicable Subscription Terms). This license ends upon termination of (a)
this Agreement or (b) a Subscription that includes the license. The Content and Services are licensed, not sold. Your license confers no
title or ownership in the Content and Services. To make use of the Content and Services, you must have a Steam Account and you may
be required to be running the Steam client and maintaining a connection to the Internet.
For reasons that include, without limitation, system security, stability, and multiplayer interoperability, Steam may need to automatically
update, pre-load, create new versions of or otherwise enhance the Content and Services and accordingly, the system requirements to
use the Content and Services may change over time. You consent to such automatic updating. You understand that this Agreement
(including applicable Subscription Terms) does not entitle you to future updates, new versions or other enhancements of the Content
and Services associated with a particular Subscription, although Valve may choose to provide such updates, etc. in its sole discretion.
B. Beta Software License
Valve may from time to time make software accessible to you via Steam prior to the general commercial release of such software ("Beta
Software"). You are not required to use Beta Software, but if Valve offers it, you may elect to use it under the following terms. Beta
Software will be deemed to consist of Content and Services, and each item of Beta Software provided will be deemed a Subscription for
such Beta Software, with the following provisions specific to Beta Software:
Your right to use the Beta Software may be limited in time, and may be subject to additional Subscription Terms;
Valve or any Valve affiliate may request or require that you provide suggestions, feedback, or data regarding your use of the Beta
Software, which will be deemed User Generated Content under Section 6 (User Generated Content) below; and
In addition to the waivers and limitations of liability for all Software under Section 7 (Disclaimers; Limitations on Liability; No
Guarantees; Limited Warranty & Agreement) below as applicable, you specifically acknowledge that Beta Software is only released
for testing and improvement purposes, in particular to provide Valve with feedback on the quality and usability of the Beta Software,
and therefore contains errors, is not final and may create incompatibilities or damage to your computer, data, and/or software. If you
decide to install and/or use Beta Software, you shall only use it in compliance with its purposes, i.e. for testing and improvement
purposes and in any case not on a system or for purposes where the malfunction of the Beta Software can cause any kind of
damage. In particular, maintain full backups of any system that you choose to install Beta Software on.
C. License to Use Valve Developer Tools
Your Subscription(s) may include access to various Valve tools that can be used to create content ("Developer Tools"). Some examples
include: the Valve software development kit (the "SDK") for a version of the computer game engine known as "Source" (the "Source
Engine") and the associated Valve Hammer editor, The Source® Filmmaker Software, or in-game tools through which you can edit or
create derivative works of a Valve game. Particular Developer Tools (for example, The Source® Filmmaker Software) may be distributed
with separate Subscription Terms that are different from the rules set forth in this Section. Except as set forth in any separate
Subscription Terms applicable to the use of a particular Developer Tool, you may use the Developer Tools, and you may use, reproduce,
publish, perform, display and distribute any content you create using the Developer Tools, however you wish, but solely on a non-
commercial basis.
If you would like to use the Source Engine SDK or other Valve Developer Tools for commercial use, please contact Valve at
sourceengine@valvesoftware.com.
D. License to Use Valve Game Content in Fan Art.
Valve appreciates the community of Subscribers that creates fan art, fan fiction, and audio-visual works that reference Valve games
("Fan Art"). You may incorporate content from Valve games into your Fan Art. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section or in any
Subscription Terms, you may use, reproduce, publish, perform, display and distribute Fan Art that incorporates content from Valve
games however you wish, but solely on a non-commercial basis.
If you incorporate any third-party content in any Fan Art, you must be sure to obtain all necessary rights from the owner of that content.
Commercial use of some Valve game content is permitted via features such as Steam Workshop or a Steam Subscription Marketplace.
Terms applicable to that use are set forth in Sections 3.D. and 6.B. below and in any Subscription Terms provided for those features.

property or created with The Source® Filmmaker Software, please click here: http://www.valvesoftware.com/videopolicy.html
E. License to Use Valve Dedicated Server Software
Your Subscription(s) may contain access to the Valve Dedicated Server Software. If so, you may use the Valve Dedicated Server
Software on an unlimited number of computers for the purpose of hosting online multiplayer games of Valve products. If you wish to
operate the Valve Dedicated Server Software, you will be solely responsible for procuring any Internet access, bandwidth, or hardware
for such activities and will bear all costs associated with your use.
F. Ownership of Content and Services
All title, ownership rights and intellectual property rights in and to the Content and Services and any and all copies thereof, are owned
by Valve and/or its or its affiliates’ licensors. All rights are reserved, except as expressly stated herein. The Content and Services are
protected by copyright laws, international copyright treaties and conventions and other laws. The Content and Services contain certain
licensed materials and Valve’s and its affiliates’ licensors may protect their rights in the event of any violation of this Agreement.
G. Restrictions on Use of Content and Services
You may not use the Content and Services for any purpose other than the permitted access to Steam and your Subscriptions, and to
make personal, non-commercial use of your Subscriptions, except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or applicable Subscription
Terms. Except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement (including any Subscription Terms or Rules of Use), or under applicable law
notwithstanding these restrictions, you may not, in whole or in part, copy, photocopy, reproduce, publish, distribute, translate, reverse
engineer, derive source code from, modify, disassemble, decompile, create derivative works based on, or remove any proprietary
notices or labels from the Content and Services or any software accessed via Steam without the prior consent, in writing, of Valve.
You are entitled to use the Content and Services for your own personal use, but you are not entitled to: (i) sell, grant a security interest
in or transfer reproductions of the Content and Services to other parties in any way, nor to rent, lease or license the Content and
Services to others without the prior written consent of Valve, except to the extent expressly permitted elsewhere in this Agreement
(including any Subscription Terms or Rules of Use); (ii) host or provide matchmaking services for the Content and Services or emulate

or redirect the communication protocols used by Valve in any network feature of the Content and Services, through protocol emulation,
tunneling, modifying or adding components to the Content and Services, use of a utility program or any other techniques now known or
hereafter developed, for any purpose including, but not limited to network play over the Internet, network play utilizing commercial or
non-commercial gaming networks or as part of content aggregation networks, websites or services, without the prior written consent of
Valve; or (iii) exploit the Content and Services or any of its parts for any commercial purpose, except as expressly permitted elsewhere
in this Agreement (including any Subscription Terms or Rules of Use).
3. BILLING, PAYMENT AND OTHER SUBSCRIPTIONS ⏶
All charges incurred on Steam, and all purchases made with the Steam Wallet, are payable in advance and final, except as described in
Sections 3.I and 7 below.
A. Payment Authorization
When you provide payment information to Valve or to one of its payment processors, you represent to Valve that you are the authorized
user of the card, PIN, key or account associated with that payment, and you authorize Valve to charge your credit card or to process
your payment with the chosen third-party payment processor for any Subscription, Steam Wallet funds, Hardware or other fees incurred
by you. Valve may require you to provide your address or other information in order to meet its obligations under applicable tax law.
For Subscriptions purchased based on an agreed usage period, where recurring payments are made in exchange for continued use
("Recurring Payment Subscriptions"), by continuing to use the Recurring Payment Subscription you agree and reaffirm that Valve is
authorized to charge your credit card (or your Steam Wallet, if funded), or to process your payment with any other applicable third-party
payment processor, for any applicable recurring payment amounts. If you have purchased any Recurring Payment Subscriptions, you
agree to notify Valve promptly of any changes to your credit card account number, its expiration date and/or your billing address, or your
PayPal or other payment account number, and you agree to notify Valve promptly if your credit card or PayPal or other payment account
expires or is cancelled for any reason.
If your use of Steam is subject to any type of use or sales tax, then Valve may also charge you for those taxes, in addition to the
Subscription or other fees published in the Rules of Use. The European Union VAT ("VAT") tax amounts collected by Valve reflect VAT
due on the value of any Content and Services, Hardware or Subscription.
You agree that you will not use IP proxying or other methods to disguise the place of your residence, whether to circumvent
geographical restrictions on game content, to purchase at pricing not applicable to your geography, or for any other purpose. If you do
this, Valve may terminate your access to your Account.
B. Responsibility for Charges Associated With Your Account
As the Account holder, you are responsible for all charges incurred, including applicable taxes, and all purchases made by you or
anyone that uses your Account, including your family or friends. If you cancel your Account, Valve reserves the right to collect fees,
surcharges or costs incurred before cancellation. Any delinquent or unpaid Accounts must be settled before Valve will allow you to
register again.
C. Steam Wallet
Steam may make available an account balance associated with your Account (the "Steam Wallet"). The Steam Wallet is neither a bank
account nor any kind of payment instrument. It functions as a prepaid balance to purchase Content and Services. You may place funds
in your Steam Wallet up to a maximum amount determined by Valve, by credit card, prepaid card, promotional code, or any other
payment method accepted by Steam. Within any twenty-four (24) hour period, the total amount stored in your Steam Wallet plus the
total amount spent out of your Steam Wallet, in the aggregate, may not exceed US$2,000 or its equivalent in your applicable local
currency -- attempted deposits into your Steam Wallet that exceed this threshold may not be credited to your Steam Wallet until your
activity falls below this threshold. Valve may change or impose different Steam Wallet balance and usage limits from time to time.
You will be notified by e-mail of any change to the Steam Wallet balance and usage limits within sixty (60) days before the entry into
force of the change. Your continued use of your Steam Account more than thirty (30) days after the entry into force of the changes will
constitute your acceptance of the changes. If you don’t agree to the changes, your only remedy is to terminate your Steam Account or
to cease use of your Steam Wallet. Valve shall not have any obligation to refund any credits remaining on your Steam Wallet in this
case.
You may use Steam Wallet funds to purchase Subscriptions, including by making in-game purchases where Steam Wallet transactions
are enabled, and Hardware. Subject to Section 3.I, funds added to the Steam Wallet are non-refundable and non-transferable. Steam
Wallet funds do not constitute a personal property right, have no value outside Steam and can only be used to purchase Subscriptions
and related content via Steam (including but not limited to games and other applications offered through the Steam Store, or in a Steam
Subscription Marketplace) and Hardware. Steam Wallet funds have no cash value and are not exchangeable for cash. Steam Wallet
funds that are deemed unclaimed property may be turned over to the applicable authority.
D. Trading and Sales of Subscriptions Between Subscribers
Steam may include one or more features or sites that allow Subscribers to trade, sell or purchase certain types of Subscriptions (for
example, license rights to virtual items) with, to or from other Subscribers ("Subscription Marketplaces"). An example of a Subscription
Marketplace is the Steam Community Market. By using or participating in Subscription Marketplaces, you authorize Valve, on its own
behalf or as an agent or licensee of any third-party creator or publisher of the applicable Subscriptions in your Account, to transfer those
Subscriptions from your Account in order to give effect to any trade or sale you make.
Valve may charge a fee for trades or sales in a Subscription Marketplace. Any fees will be disclosed to you prior to the completion of the
trade or sale.
If you complete a trade, sale or purchase in a Subscription Marketplace, you acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for taxes,
if any, which may be due with respect to your transactions, including sales or use taxes, and for compliance with applicable tax laws.
Proceeds from sales you make in a Subscription Marketplace may be considered income to you for income tax purposes. You should
consult with a tax specialist to determine your tax liability in connection with your activities in any Subscription Marketplace.
You understand and acknowledge that Valve may decide to cease operation of any Subscription Marketplace, change the fees that it
charges or change the terms or features of the Steam Subscription Marketplace. Valve shall have no liability to you because of any
inability to trade Subscriptions in the Steam Trading Marketplace, including because of discontinuation or changes in the terms, features
or eligibility requirements of any Subscription Marketplace.
You also understand and acknowledge that Subscriptions traded, sold or purchased in any Subscription Marketplace are license rights,
that you have no ownership interest in such Subscriptions, and that Valve does not recognize any transfers of Subscriptions (including
transfers by operation of law) that are made outside of Steam.
E. Retail Purchase
Valve may offer or require a Subscription for purchasers of retail packaged product versions or OEM versions of Valve products. The
"CD-Key" or "Product Key" accompanying such versions is used to activate your Subscription.
F. Steam Authorized Resellers

You may purchase a Subscription through an authorized reseller of Valve. The "Product Key" accompanying such purchase will be used
to activate your Subscription. If you purchase a Subscription from an authorized reseller of Valve, you agree to direct all questions
regarding the Product Key to that reseller.
G. Free Subscriptions
In some cases, Valve may offer a free Subscription to certain services, software and content. As with all Subscriptions, you are always
responsible for any Internet service provider, telephone, and other connection fees that you may incur when using Steam, even when
Valve offers a free Subscription.
H. Third-Party Sites
Steam may provide links to other third-party sites. Some of these sites may charge separate fees, which are not included in and are in
addition to any Subscription or other fees that you may pay to Valve. Steam may also provide access to third-party vendors, who
provide content, goods and/or services on Steam or the Internet. Any separate charges or obligations you incur in your dealings with
these third parties are your responsibility. Valve makes no representations or warranties, either express or implied, regarding any third
party site. In particular, Valve makes no representation or warranty that any service or subscription offered via third-party vendors will
not change or be suspended or terminated.
I. Refunds and Right of Withdrawal
Without prejudice to any statutory rights you may have, you can request a refund for your purchases on Steam in accordance with the
terms of Valve’s Refund Policy http://store.steampowered.com/steam_refunds/.
For European Union consumers:
EU law provides a statutory right to withdraw from certain contracts for physical merchandise and for the purchase of digital content.
You can find more information about the extent of your statutory right to withdraw and the ways you can exercise it on this page:
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8620-QYAL-4516.
4. ONLINE CONDUCT, CHEATING AND PROCESS TAMPERING ⏶
Your online conduct and interaction with other Subscribers should be guided by common sense and basic etiquette. They must notably
comply with the Steam Online Conduct Rules, to be found at http://steampowered.com/index.php?area=online_conduct. Depending on
terms of use imposed by third parties who host particular games or other services, additional requirements may also be provided in the
Subscription Terms applicable to a particular Subscription.
Steam and the Content and Services may include functionality designed to identify software or hardware processes or functionality that
may give a player an unfair competitive advantage when playing multiplayer versions of any Content and Services or modifications of
Content and Services ("Cheats"). You agree that you will not create Cheats or assist third parties in any way to create or use Cheats.
You agree that you will not directly or indirectly disable, circumvent, or otherwise interfere with the operation of software designed to
prevent or report the use of Cheats.
You agree that you will not tamper with the execution of Steam or Content and Services unless otherwise authorized by Valve. You
acknowledge and agree that either Valve or any host of an online multiplayer game distributed through Steam ("External Host") may
refuse to allow you to participate in certain online multiplayer games if you use Cheats or tamper with the execution of Steam or the
Content and Services.
Further, you acknowledge and agree that External Hosts may report your use of Cheats or unauthorized process tampering to Valve,
and Valve may communicate your history of use thereof to External Hosts within the boundaries of the Steam Privacy Policy.
Valve may terminate your Account or a particular Subscription for any conduct or activity that is illegal, constitutes a Cheat, or otherwise
negatively affects the enjoyment of Steam by other Subscribers. You acknowledge that Valve is not required to provide you notice
before terminating your Subscription(s) and/or Account.
You may not use Cheats, automation software (bots), mods, hacks, or any other unauthorized third-party software, to modify or
automate any Subscription Marketplace process or the process of Steam account creation.
5. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT ⏶
In regard to all Subscriptions, Content and Services that are not authored by Valve, Valve does not screen such third-party content
available on Steam or through other sources. Valve assumes no responsibility or liability for such third party content. Some third-party
application software is capable of being used by businesses for business purposes - however, you may only acquire such software via
Steam for private personal use.
6. USER GENERATED CONTENT ⏶
A. General Provisions
Steam provides interfaces and tools for you to be able to generate content and make it available to other users and/or to Valve at your
sole discretion. "User Generated Content" means any content you make available to other users through your use of multi-user features
of Steam, or to Valve or its affiliates through your use of the Content and Services or otherwise.
When you upload your content to Steam to make it available to other users and/or to Valve, you grant Valve and its affiliates the
worldwide, non-exclusive right to use, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, transmit, transcode, translate,
broadcast, and otherwise communicate, and publicly display and publicly perform, your User Generated Content, and derivative works
of your User Generated Content, for the purpose of the operation, distribution, incorporation as part of and promotion of the Steam
service, Steam games or other Steam offerings, including Subscriptions. This license is granted to Valve as the content is uploaded on
Steam for the entire duration of the intellectual property rights. It may be terminated if Valve is in breach of the license and has not cured
such breach within fourteen (14) days from receiving notice from you sent to the attention of the Valve Legal Department at the
applicable Valve address noted on this Privacy Policy page. The termination of said license does not affect the rights of any sub-
licensees pursuant to any sub-license granted by Valve prior to termination of the license. Valve is the sole owner of the derivative
works created by Valve from your User Generated Content, and is therefore entitled to grant licenses on these derivative works. If you
use Valve cloud storage, you grant us a license to store your information as part of that service. Valve may place limits on the amount of
storage you may use.
If you provide Valve with any feedback or suggestions about Steam, the Content and Services, or any Valve products, Hardware or
services, Valve is free to use the feedback or suggestions however it chooses, without any obligation to account to you.
B. Content Uploaded to the Steam Workshop
Some games or applications available on Steam ("Workshop-Enabled Apps") allow you to create User Generated Content based on or
using the Workshop-Enabled App, and to submit that User Generated Content (a “Workshop Contribution”) to one or more Steam
Workshop web pages. Workshop Contributions can be viewed by the Steam community, and for some categories of Workshop
Contributions users may be able to interact with, download or purchase the Workshop Contribution. In some cases, Workshop
Contributions may be considered for incorporation by Valve or a third-party developer into a game or into a Subscription Marketplace.
You understand and agree that Valve is not obligated to use, distribute, or continue to distribute copies of any Workshop Contribution
and reserves the right, but not the obligation, to restrict or remove Workshop Contributions for any reason.

Specific Workshop-Enabled Apps or Workshop web pages may contain special terms (“App-Specific Terms”) that supplement or change
the terms set out in this Section. In particular, where Workshop Contributions are distributed for a fee, App-Specific Terms will address
how revenue may be shared. Unless otherwise specified in App-Specific Terms (if any), the following general rules apply to Workshop
Contributions.
Workshop Contributions are Subscriptions, and therefore you agree that any Subscriber receiving distribution of your Workshop
Contribution will have the same rights to use your Workshop Contribution (and will be subject to the same restrictions) as are set out
in this Agreement for any other Subscriptions.
Notwithstanding the license described in Section 6.A., Valve will only have the right to modify or create derivative works from your
Workshop Contribution in the following cases: (a) Valve may make modifications necessary to make your Contribution compatible
with Steam and the Workshop functionality or user interface, and (b) Valve or the applicable developer may make modifications to
Workshop Contributions that are accepted for in-Application distribution as it deems necessary or desirable to enhance gameplay.
You may, in your sole discretion, choose to remove a Workshop Contribution from the applicable Workshop pages. If you do so,
Valve will no longer have the right to use, distribute, transmit, communicate, publicly display or publicly perform the Workshop
Contribution, except that (a) Valve may continue to exercise these rights for any Workshop Contribution that is accepted for
distribution in-game or distributed in a manner that allows it to be used in-game, and (b) your removal will not affect the rights of any
Subscriber who has already obtained access to a copy of the Workshop Contribution.
Except where otherwise provided in App-Specific Terms, you agree that Valve’s consideration of your Workshop Contribution is your full
compensation, and you are not entitled to any other rights or compensation in connection with the rights granted to Valve and to other
Subscribers.
C. Promotions and Endorsements
If you use Steam services (e.g. the Steam Curators’ Lists or the Steam Broadcasting service) to promote or endorse a product, service
or event in return for any kind of consideration from a third party (including non-monetary rewards such as free games), you must clearly
indicate the source of such consideration to your audience.
D. Representations and Warranties
You represent and warrant to us that you have sufficient rights in all User Generated Content to grant Valve and other affected parties
the licenses described under A. and B. above or in any license terms specific to the applicable Workshop-Enabled App or Workshop
page. This includes, without limitation, any kind of intellectual property rights or other proprietary or personal rights affected by or
included in the User Generated Content. In particular, with respect to Workshop Contributions, you represent and warrant that the
Workshop Contribution was originally created by you (or, with respect to a Workshop Contribution to which others contributed besides
you, by you and the other contributors, and in such case that you have the right to submit such Workshop Contribution on behalf of
those other contributors).
You furthermore represent and warrant that the User Generated Content, your submission of that Content, and your granting of rights in
that Content does not violate any applicable contract, law or regulation.

9. TERM AND TERMINATION ⏶
A. Term
The term of this Agreement (the "Term") commences on the date you first indicate your acceptance of these terms, and will continue in

B. Termination by You
You may cancel your Account at any time. You may cease use of a Subscription at any time or, if you choose, you may request that
Valve terminate your access to a Subscription. However, Subscriptions are not transferable, and even if your access to a Subscription
for a particular game or application is terminated, the original activation key will not be able to be registered to any other account, even if
the Subscription was obtained in a retail store. Access to Subscriptions purchased as a part of a pack or bundle cannot be terminated
individually, termination of access to one game within the bundle will result in termination of access to all games purchased in the pack.
Your cancellation of an Account, or your cessation of use of any Subscription or request that access to a Subscription be terminated, will
not entitle you to any refund, including of any Subscription fees. Valve reserves the right to collect fees, surcharges or costs incurred
prior to the cancellation of your Account or termination of your access to a particular Subscription. In addition, you are responsible for
any charges incurred to third-party vendors or content providers before your cancellation.

Subscriptions to similarly situated Subscribers generally, or (b) you breach any terms of this Agreement (including any Subscription
Terms or Rules of Use). In the event that your Account or a particular Subscription is terminated or cancelled by Valve for a violation of

10. APPLICABLE LAW/MEDIATION/JURISDICTION/ATTORNEYS’ FEES ⏶
For All Customers Outside the European Union:
You and Valve agree that this Agreement shall be deemed to have been made and executed in the State of Washington, U.S.A., and
Washington law, excluding conflict of laws principles and the Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, governs all
claims arising out of or relating to: (i) any aspect of the relationship between us; (ii) this Agreement; or (iii) your use of Steam, your
Account or the Content and Services; except that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs arbitration as far as your country’s laws
permit. Subject to Section 11 (Dispute Resolution/Binding Arbitration/Class Action Waiver) below, you and Valve agree that any claim
asserted in any legal proceeding shall be commenced and maintained exclusively in any state or federal court located in King County,
Washington, having subject matter jurisdiction. You and Valve hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. In any dispute
arising out of or relating to this Agreement, your use of Steam, your account, or the Content and Services, the prevailing party will be
entitled to attorneys’ fees and expenses (except arbitration -- see Section 11.C.)
For EU Customers:
In the event of a dispute relating to the interpretation, the performance or the validity of the Subscriber Agreement, an amicable solution
will be sought before any legal action. You can file your complaint at http://help.steampowered.com. In case of failure, you may, within
one year of the failed request, have recourse to an Alternative Dispute Resolution procedure by filing an online complaint on the
European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution website: https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/odr/main/index.cfm?
event=main.home.chooseLanguage.
In the event that out-of-court dispute resolutions fail, the dispute may be brought before the competent courts.
11. DISPUTE RESOLUTION/BINDING ARBITRATION/CLASS ACTION WAIVER ⏶
This Section 11 shall apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. IN PARTICULAR, IF YOU LIVE IN THE PROVINCE OF
QUEBEC (CANADA) OR THE EUROPEAN UNION, THIS SECTION 11 DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Most user concerns can be resolved by use of our Steam support site at https://support.steampowered.com/. If Valve is unable to
resolve your concerns and a dispute remains between you and Valve, this Section explains how the parties have agreed to resolve it.

A. Must Arbitrate All Claims Except IP, Unauthorized Use, Piracy, or Theft
YOU AND VALVE AGREE TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS BETWEEN US IN INDIVIDUAL BINDING ARBITRATION.
THAT INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO: (i) ANY ASPECT OF THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US; (ii) THIS AGREEMENT; OR (iii) YOUR USE OF STEAM, YOUR ACCOUNT, HARDWARE OR THE
CONTENT AND SERVICES. IT APPLIES REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH CLAIMS ARE BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT,
STATUTE, FRAUD, UNFAIR COMPETITION, MISREPRESENTATION OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND INCLUDES ALL
CLAIMS BROUGHT ON BEHALF OF ANOTHER PARTY.
However, this Section 11 does not apply to the following types of claims or disputes, which you or Valve may bring in any court with
jurisdiction: (i) claims of infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights, including such claims seeking injunctive relief; and
(ii) claims related to or arising from any alleged unauthorized use, piracy, or theft.
This Section 11 does not prevent you from bringing your dispute to the attention of any federal, state, or local government agencies that
can, if the law allows, seek relief from us for you.
An arbitration is a proceeding before a neutral arbitrator, instead of before a judge or jury. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in
court, and provides more limited discovery. It follows different rules than court proceedings, and is subject to very limited review by
courts. The arbitrator will issue a written decision and provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party. YOU UNDERSTAND
THAT YOU AND VALVE ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND TO HAVE A TRIAL BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.
B. Try to Resolve Dispute Informally First
You and Valve agree to make reasonable, good faith efforts to informally resolve any dispute before initiating arbitration. A party who
intends to seek arbitration must first send the other a written notice that describes the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and sets
forth the relief sought. If you and Valve do not reach an agreement to resolve that claim or dispute within 30 days after the notice is
received, you or Valve may commence an arbitration. Written notice to Valve must be sent via postal mail to: ATTN: Arbitration Notice,
Valve Corporation, P.O. Box 1688, Bellevue, WA 98004.
C. Arbitration Rules and Fees
The U.S. Federal Arbitration Act applies to this Section 11 as far as your country’s laws permit. The arbitration will be governed by the
Consumer Arbitration Rules (or the Commercial Arbitration Rules, if the Consumer Arbitration rules are inapplicable) of the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA") as modified by this Agreement. Rules are available at http://www.adr.org. The arbitrator is bound by the
terms of this Agreement.
The AAA will administer the arbitration. Outside the U.S., Valve will select a neutral arbitration provider that uses these or similar rules. It
may be conducted through the submission of documents, by phone, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually
agreed location.
If you seek $10,000 or less, Valve agrees to promptly reimburse your filing fee and your share if any of AAA’s arbitration costs, including
arbitrator compensation, unless the arbitrator determines your claims are frivolous or were filed for harassment. Valve agrees not to
seek its attorneys’ fees or costs unless the arbitrator determines your claims are frivolous or were filed for harassment. If you seek more
than $10,000 and the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules do not apply, the AAA’s arbitration costs, including arbitrator compensation, will
be split between you and Valve according to the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules.
D. Individual Binding Arbitration Only
YOU AND VALVE AGREE NOT TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY
GENERAL ACTION, WHISTLE BLOWER ACTION, OR CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATION, EVEN IF
AAA’s RULES WOULD OTHERWISE ALLOW ONE. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL
PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT OF THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM. You and Valve also agree not to
seek to combine any action or arbitration with any other action or arbitration without the consent of all parties to this Agreement and all
other actions or arbitrations.
This Agreement does not permit class, collective, or representative arbitration. A court has exclusive authority to rule on any assertion
that it does.
E. What Happens if Part of Section 11 Is Found Illegal or Unenforceable
If any part of Section 11 (Dispute Resolution/Binding Arbitration/Class Action Waiver) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the rest will
remain in effect (with an arbitration award issued before any court proceeding begins), except that if a finding of partial illegality or
unenforceability would allow class, collective, or representative arbitration, all of Section 11 will be unenforceable and the claim or
dispute will be resolved in court.
12. MISCELLANEOUS ⏶
Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, in the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be held by an
arbitrator, court, or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or unenforceable, such provision will be enforced to the maximum
extent permissible and the remaining portions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Section 11.E. governs if some parts
of Section 11 (Dispute Resolution/Binding Arbitration/Class Action Waiver) are held to be illegal or unenforceable. This Agreement,
including any Subscription Terms, Rules of Use, the Valve Privacy Policy, and the Valve Hardware Limited Warranty Policy, constitutes
and contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior oral or written
agreements. You agree that this Agreement is not intended to confer and does not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other
than the parties to this Agreement.
Valve’s obligations are subject to existing laws and legal process and Valve may comply with law enforcement or regulatory requests or
requirements notwithstanding any contrary term.
You agree to comply with all applicable import/export laws and regulations. You agree not to export the Content and Services or
Hardware or allow use of your Account by individuals of any terrorist supporting countries to which encryption exports are at the time of
exportation restricted by the U.S. Bureau of Export Administration. You represent and warrant that you are not located in, under the
control of, or a national or resident of any such prohibited country.
This Agreement was last updated on August 28th, 2020 ("Revision Date"). If you were a Subscriber before the Revision Date, it
replaces your existing agreement with Valve or Valve SARL on the day that it becomes effective according to Section 8 above.
