3.3.28 Because some mobile network operators may prohibit or restrict the use of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) functionality over their network, such as the use of VoIP telephony over a cellular network, and may also impose additional fees, or other charges in connection with VoIP, You agree to inform end users, prior to purchase, to check the terms of agreement with their operator, for example, by providing such notice in the marketing text that You provide accompanying Your Application on the App Store. In addition, if Your Application allows end users to send SMS messages, then You must inform the end user, prior to use of such functionality, that standard text messaging rates or other carrier charges may apply to such use.

 

APN (Apple Push Notification service) and Local Notifications:

 

3.3.29 All use of Push Notifications via the APN or Local Notifications must be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including the Program Requirements) and Attachment 1 (Additional Terms for Apple Push Notification service and Local Notifications).

 

Game Center:

 

3.3.30 All use of the Game Center must be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including the Program Requirements) and Attachment 3 (Additional Terms for the Game Center).

 

Additional Services:

 

3.3.31 From time to time, Apple may provide access to additional services for You to use in connection with Your Applications. Some of these additional services may be subject to separate terms and conditions in addition to this Agreement. If You elect to use such services, Your usage will also be subject to those separate terms and conditions. In addition, such services may not be available in all languages or in all countries. Apple makes no representation that such services are appropriate or available for use in any particular location. To the extent You choose to access such services, You do so at Your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with any applicable laws, including but not limited to applicable local laws. Certain services made accessible to You through the Apple Software may be provided by third parties. You acknowledge that Apple will not have any liability or responsibility to You or any other person (including to any end user) for any third-party services or for any Apple services. Apple and its licensors reserve the right to change, suspend, remove, or disable access to any services at any time. In no event will Apple be liable for the removal of or disabling of access to any such services.

	4. Changes to Program Requirements or Terms

Apple may change the Program Requirements or the terms of this Agreement at any time. New or modified Program Requirements will not retroactively apply to Applications already in distribution. In order to continue using the Apple Software or any services, You must accept and agree to the new Program Requirements and/or new terms of this Agreement. If You do not agree to new Program Requirements or new terms, Your use of the Apple Software and any services will be suspended or terminated by Apple. You agree that Your acceptance of such new Agreement terms or Program Requirements may be signified electronically, including without limitation, by Your checking a box or clicking on an “agree” or similar button. Nothing in this Section shall affect Apple’s rights under Section 8 below.

 

	5. Digital Signing of Applications; Restrictions on Certificates

All Applications must be signed with an Apple-issued certificate in order to be installed on Registered Devices. During the Term of this Agreement, You may obtain development-related digital certificates from Apple, subject to a maximum number as reasonably determined by Apple, that will allow Your Application to be installed and tested on Authorized Test Devices. You may also obtain, during the Term, one or more production digital certificates from Apple, subject to a maximum number as reasonably determined by Apple, to be used for the sole purpose of signing Your Application(s) prior to submission of Your Application to Apple or limited distribution of Your Application for use on Registered Devices.

 

In relation to this, You represent and warrant to Apple that: (a) You will not take any action to interfere with the normal operation of any Apple-issued digital certificates or Provisioning Profiles; (b) You are solely responsible for preventing any unauthorized person from having access to Your digital certificates and corresponding private keys and You will use best efforts to safeguard Your digital certificates and corresponding private keys from compromise; (c) You agree to immediately notify Apple in writing if You have any reason to believe there has been a compromise of any of Your digital certificates or corresponding private keys; (d) You will not provide or transfer Apple-issued digital certificates provided under this Program to any third party, nor use Your digital certificate to sign a third party’s application; and (e) You will use Apple-issued certificates provided under this Program exclusively for the purpose of signing Your Applications for testing, submission to Apple and/or limited distribution for use on Registered Devices as contemplated under this Program, and only in accordance with this Agreement.

 

You further represent and warrant to Apple that the licensing terms governing Your Application, or governing any third party code or FOSS included in Your Application, will be consistent with and not conflict with the digital signing or content protection aspects of the Program or any of the terms, conditions or requirements of the Program or this Agreement. In particular, such licensing terms will not purport to require Apple (or its agents) to disclose or make available any of the keys, authorization codes, methods, procedures, data or other information related to the Security Solution, digital signing or digital rights management mechanisms utilized as part of the Program. If You discover any such inconsistency or conflict, You agree to immediately notify Apple of it and will cooperate with Apple to resolve such matter. Apple may immediately cease distribution of any affected Licensed Applications and refuse to accept any subsequent Application submissions from You until such matter is resolved to Apple’s reasonable satisfaction.

	6. Application Submission and Selection
	 
	6.1 Submission to Apple

You may submit Your Application for consideration by Apple for distribution via the App Store once You decide that Your Application has been adequately tested and is complete. By submitting Your Application, You represent and warrant that Your Application complies with the Documentation and Program Requirements then in effect as well as with any additional guidelines that Apple may post on the Program web portal. You further agree that You will not attempt to hide, misrepresent or obscure any features, content, services or functionality in Your submitted Applications from Apple’s review or otherwise hinder Apple from being able to fully review such Applications. In addition, You agree to inform Apple in writing through iTunes Connect if Your Application connects to a physical device, including an iOS Accessory, and, if so, to disclose the means of such connection (whether iAP, the headphone jack, or any other communication protocol or standard) and identify at least one physical device with which Your Application is designed to communicate. If requested by Apple, You agree to provide access to or samples of any such devices at your expense (samples will not be returned). You agree to cooperate with Apple in this submission process and to answer questions and provide information and materials reasonably requested by Apple regarding Your submitted Application, including insurance information You may have relating to Your Application, the operation of Your business, or Your obligations under this Agreement. Apple may require You to carry certain levels of insurance for certain types of Applications and name Apple as an additional insured.

 

If You make any changes to an Application (including to any functionality made available through use of the In App Purchase API) after submission to Apple, You must resubmit the Application to Apple. Similarly all bug fixes, updates, upgrades, modifications, enhancements, supplements to, revisions, new releases and new versions of Your Application must be submitted to Apple for review in order for them to be considered for distribution via the App Store. Further, if Your Application is accepted for distribution via the App Store, You agree that Apple may use Your Application for the limited purpose of compatibility testing of Your Application with the iOS, for finding and fixing bugs in the iOS and for purposes of providing other information to You (e.g. crash logs).

 

	6.2 Selection by Apple for Distribution

You understand and agree that Apple may, in its sole discretion:

(a) determine that Your Application does not meet all or any part of the Documentation or Program Requirements then in effect;

(b) reject Your Application for distribution for any reason, even if Your Application meets the Documentation and Program Requirements; or

(c) select and digitally sign Your Application for distribution via the App Store.

 

Apple shall not be responsible for any costs, expenses, damages, losses (including without limitation lost business opportunities or lost profits) or other liabilities You may incur as a result of Your Application development, use of this Apple Software, use of any services, or participation in the Program, including without limitation the fact that Your Application may not be selected for distribution via the App Store. You will be solely responsible for developing Applications that are safe, free of defects in design and operation, and comply with applicable laws and regulations. You will also be solely responsible for any documentation and end user customer support and warranty of Your Applications. The fact that Apple may have reviewed, tested, approved or selected an Application will not relieve You of any of these responsibilities.

 

	7. Distribution

Applications developed under this Agreement may be distributed in two ways: (1) through the App Store, if selected by Apple, and (2) distribution for use on a limited number of Registered Devices.

 

	7.1 Delivery of Freely Available Licensed Applications via the App Store

If Your Application qualifies as a Licensed Application, it is eligible for delivery to end users via the App Store by Apple and/or an Apple Subsidiary. If You would like Apple and/or an Apple Subsidiary to deliver Your Licensed Application to end users for free (no charge), then You appoint Apple and Apple Subsidiaries as Your legal agent pursuant to the terms of Schedule 1, for Licensed Applications designated by You as free of charge applications.

 

If Your Application qualifies as a Licensed Application and You intend to charge end users a fee of any kind for Your Licensed Application or within Your Licensed Application through the use of the In App Purchase API, You must enter into a separate agreement (Schedule 2) with, and provided by, Apple and/or an Apple Subsidiary before any such commercial distribution of Your Licensed Application may take place via the App Store or before any such commercial delivery of additional content, functionality or services may be made available through the use of the In App Purchase API in Your Licensed Application. To the extent that You enter (or have previously entered) into Schedule 2 with Apple and/or an Apple Subsidiary, the terms of Schedule 2 will be deemed incorporated into this Agreement by this reference.

  

Page 13

  

	7.2 Distribution on Registered Devices (Ad Hoc Distribution)

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You may also distribute Your Applications to individuals within Your company, organization, educational institution, group, or who are otherwise affiliated with You for use solely on a limited number of Registered Devices (as specified on the Program web portal), if Your Application has been digitally signed using Your Apple-issued digital certificate as described in this Agreement. By distributing Your Application in this manner, You represent and warrant to Apple that Your Application complies with the Documentation and Program Requirements then in effect and You agree to cooperate with Apple and to answer questions and provide information about Your Application, as reasonably requested by Apple.

 

You also agree to be solely responsible for determining which individuals within Your company, organization, educational institution or affiliated group should have access to and use of Your Applications and Registered Devices, and for managing such Registered Devices. Apple shall not be responsible for any costs, expenses, damages, losses (including without limitation lost business opportunities or lost profits) or other liabilities You may incur as a result of distributing Your Applications in this manner, or for Your failure to adequately manage, limit or otherwise control the access to and use of Your Applications and Registered Devices.

 

You will be responsible for attaching or otherwise including, at Your discretion, any relevant usage terms with Your Applications. Apple will not be responsible for any violations of Your usage terms. You will be solely responsible for all user assistance, warranty and support of Your Applications.

 

	7.3 No Other Distribution Authorized Under this Agreement

Except for the distribution of freely available Licensed Applications and the distribution of Applications for use on Registered Devices as set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 above, no other distribution of programs or applications developed using the Apple Software is authorized or permitted hereunder. In the absence of a separate agreement with Apple, You agree not to distribute Your Application to third parties via other distribution methods or to enable or permit others to do so.

 

	8. Revocation

You understand and agree that Apple may cease distribution of Your Licensed Application(s) and/or Licensed Application Information or revoke the digital certificate of any of Your Applications at any time. By way of example only, Apple might choose to do this if at any time:

(a) Any of Your Provisioning Profiles, digital certificates or corresponding private keys has been compromised or Apple has reason to believe that either has been compromised;

(b) Apple has been notified or otherwise has reason to believe that Your Application violates, misappropriates, or infringes the rights of a third party or of Apple;

(c) Apple has reason to believe that Your Application contains malicious or harmful code, malware, programs or other internal components (e.g. software virus);

(d) Apple has reason to believe that Your Application damages, corrupts, degrades, destroys or otherwise adversely affects the devices it operates on, or any other software, firmware, hardware, data, systems, or networks accessed or used by the Application;

(e) You breach any term or condition of this Agreement or the Registered Apple Developer terms and conditions;

(f) Any information or documents provided by You to Apple for the purpose of verifying Your identity or obtaining Provisioning Profiles or Apple-issued digital certificates is false or inaccurate;

(g) Any representation, warranty or certification provided by You to Apple in this Agreement is untrue or inaccurate;

(h) Apple is required by law, regulation or other governmental or court order to take such action;

(i) You request that Apple take such action in accordance with Schedule 1;

(j) You misuse or overburden any services provided hereunder;

(k) You fail to renew this Agreement and pay the applicable renewal fee; or

(l) Apple has reason to believe that such action is prudent or necessary.

	9. Program Fees

As consideration for the rights and licenses granted to You under this Agreement and Your participation in the Program, You agree to pay Apple the requisite annual program fees as set forth on the Program website. The fees are non-refundable. Any taxes that may be levied on the Apple Software or Your use of it shall be Your responsibility. Your program fees must be paid up and not in arrears at the time You submit (or resubmit) Applications to Apple under this Agreement, and Your continued use of the Program web portal is subject to Your payment of such fees.

 

	10. Confidentiality
	10.1 Information Deemed Apple Confidential

You agree that all pre-release versions of the Apple Software (including pre-release Documentation) and services, any terms and conditions contained herein that disclose pre-release features of the Apple Software or services, and the terms and conditions of Schedule 2 (available separately to cover distribution of paid-for Licensed Applications via the App Store) will be deemed “Apple Confidential Information”; provided however that upon the commercial release of the Apple Software the terms and conditions that disclose pre-release features of the Apple Software or services will no longer be confidential. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Apple Confidential Information will not include: (i) information that is generally and legitimately available to the public through no fault or breach of Yours, (ii) information that is generally made available to the public by Apple, (iii) information that is independently developed by You without the use of any Apple Confidential Information, (iv) information that was rightfully obtained from a third party who had the right to transfer or disclose it to You without limitation, or (v) any FOSS included in the Apple Software and accompanied by licensing terms that do not impose confidentiality obligations on the use or disclosure of such FOSS.

 

	10.2 Obligations Regarding Apple Confidential Information

You agree to protect Apple Confidential Information using at least the same degree of care that You use to protect Your own confidential information of similar importance, but no less than a reasonable degree of care. You agree to use Apple Confidential Information solely for the purpose of exercising Your rights and performing Your obligations under this Agreement and agree not to use Apple Confidential Information for any other purpose, for Your own or any third party’s benefit, without Apple’s prior written consent. You further agree not to disclose or disseminate Apple Confidential Information to anyone other than: (i) those of Your employees and contractors, or those of Your faculty and staff if You are an educational institution, who have a need to know and who are bound by a written agreement that prohibits unauthorized use or disclosure of the Apple Confidential Information; or (ii) except as otherwise agreed or permitted in writing by Apple. You may disclose Apple Confidential Information to the extent required by law, provided that You take reasonable steps to notify Apple of such requirement before disclosing the Apple Confidential Information and to obtain protective treatment of the Apple Confidential Information. You acknowledge that damages for improper disclosure of Apple Confidential Information may be irreparable; therefore, Apple is entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunction and preliminary injunction, in addition to all other remedies.

 

  

Page 15

  

 

	10.3 Information Submitted to Apple Not Deemed Confidential

Apple works with many application and software developers and some of their products may be similar to or compete with Your Applications. Apple may also be developing its own similar or competing applications and products or may decide to do so in the future. To avoid potential misunderstandings, Apple cannot agree, and expressly disclaims, any confidentiality obligations or use restrictions, express or implied, with respect to any information that You may provide in connection with this Agreement or the Program, including information about Your Application, Licensed Application Information and metadata (such disclosures will be referred to as “Licensee Disclosures”). You agree that any such Licensee Disclosures will be non-confidential. Apple will be free to use and disclose any Licensee Disclosures on an unrestricted basis without notifying or compensating You. You release Apple from all liability and obligations that may arise from the receipt, review, use, or disclosure of any portion of any Licensee Disclosures. Any physical materials You submit to Apple will become Apple property and Apple will have no obligation to return those materials to You or to certify their destruction.

	  
	10.4 Press Releases and Other Publicity

You may not issue any press releases or make any other public statements regarding this Agreement, its terms and conditions, or the relationship of the parties without Apple’s express prior written approval, which may be withheld at Apple’s discretion.

	  
	11. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, You agree to indemnify and hold harmless, and upon Apple’s request, defend, Apple, its directors, officers, employees, independent contractors and agents (each an “Apple Indemnified Party”) from any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, taxes, expenses and costs, including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and court costs (collectively, “Losses”), incurred by an Apple Indemnified Party and arising from or related to any of the following: (i) Your breach of any certification, covenant, obligation, representation or warranty in this Agreement, including Schedule 2 (if applicable); (ii) any claims that Your Application or the distribution, sale, offer for sale, use or importation of Your Application (whether alone or as an essential part of a combination), Licensed Application Information or metadata, violate or infringe any third party intellectual property or proprietary rights; (iii) Your breach of any of Your obligations under the EULA (as defined in Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 (if applicable)) for Your Licensed Application; (iv) Apple’s permitted use, promotion or delivery of Your Licensed Application, Licensed Application Information, metadata, related trademarks and logos, or images and other materials that You provide to Apple under this Agreement, including Schedule 2 (if applicable); or (vi) Your use of the Apple Software or services, Your Application, Licensed Application Information, metadata, Registered Devices, or Your development and distribution of any Application.

 

You acknowledge that neither the Apple Software nor any services are intended for use in the development of Applications in which errors or inaccuracies in the content, functionality, services, data or information provided by the Application or the failure of the Application, could lead to death, personal injury, or severe physical or environmental damage, and, to the extent permitted by law, You hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Apple Indemnified Party from any Losses incurred by such Apple Indemnified Party by reason of any such use.

 

In no event may You enter into any settlement or like agreement with a third party that affects Apple’s rights or binds Apple in any way, without the prior written consent of Apple.

	  
	12. Term and Termination
	  
	12.1 Term

The Term of this Agreement shall extend until the one (1) year anniversary of the original activation date of Your Program account (“Effective Date”). Thereafter, subject to Your payment of annual renewal fees and compliance with the terms of this Agreement, the Term will automatically renew for successive one (1) year terms, unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement.

	  
	12.2 Termination

This Agreement and all rights and licenses granted by Apple hereunder and any services provided hereunder will terminate, effective immediately upon notice from Apple:

(a) if You or any of Your Authorized Developers fail to comply with any term of this Agreement other than those contained in Section 10 (Confidentiality) and fail to cure such breach within 30 days after becoming aware of or receiving notice of such breach;

(b) if You or any of Your Authorized Developers fail to comply with the terms of Section 10;

(c) in the event of the circumstances described in the subsection entitled “Severability” below;

(d) if You, at any time during the Term, commence an action for patent infringement against Apple;

(e) if You become insolvent, fail to pay Your debts when due, dissolve or cease to do business, file for bankruptcy, or have filed against You a petition in bankruptcy; or

(f) if You engage, or encourage others to engage, in any misleading, fraudulent, improper, unlawful or dishonest act relating to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, misrepresenting the nature of Your submitted Application (e.g., hiding or trying to hide functionality from Apple’s review, falsifying consumer reviews for Your Application, etc.).

 

Apple may also terminate this Agreement, or suspend Your rights to use the Apple Software or services, if You fail to accept any new Program Requirements or Agreement terms as described in Section 4.

 

Either party may terminate this Agreement for its convenience, for any reason or no reason, effective 30 days after providing the other party with written notice of its intent to terminate.

	12.3 Effect of Termination

Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, You agree to immediately cease all use of the Apple Software and services and erase and destroy all copies, full or partial, of the Apple Software and any information pertaining to the services (including Your Push Application ID) and all copies of Apple Confidential Information in Your and Your Authorized Developers’ possession or control. At Apple’s request, You agree to provide written certification of such destruction to Apple. Upon the expiration of the Delivery Period defined and set forth in Schedule 1, all Licensed Applications and Licensed Application Information in Apple’s possession or control shall be deleted or destroyed within a reasonable time thereafter, excluding any archival copies maintained in accordance with Apple’s standard business practices or required to be maintained by applicable law, rule or regulation. The following provisions shall survive any termination of this Agreement: Sections 1, 2.5, 2.6, 3.1(d), 3.1(e), 3.1(f), 3.2(d), 3.2(e), 3.2(f), 3.2(g), 3.3, 5 (second and third paragraphs), 6.1, 6.2, 7.1 (Schedule 1 for the Delivery Period), 7.3, 8, and 10 through 15 inclusive; within Attachment 1, the third sentence of Section 1.1, Section 2, the second and third sentences of Section 3, Section 4, the second and third sentences of Section 5, and Section 7; within Attachment 2, Sections 1.3, 2, 3, 4, 5, the second and third sentence of 6, 7, and 8; and within Attachment 3, Section 1, 2 (except the second sentence of Section 2.1), 3 and 5. For the avoidance of doubt, upon any termination of this Agreement, You may not make available any content, functionality, or services through the use of the In App Purchase API. Apple will not be liable for compensation, indemnity, or damages of any sort as a result of terminating this Agreement in accordance with its terms, and termination of this Agreement will be without prejudice to any other right or remedy Apple may have, now or in the future.

	  
	13. NO WARRANTY

Apple or its licensors may provide or make available through the Apple Software or as part of the Program, certain web-based applications, certificate-issuance services, App Store services or other services for Your use (collectively the “Services” for purposes of this Section 13 and 14). Apple and its licensors reserve the right to change, suspend, remove, or disable access to any Services at any time without notice. In no event will Apple or its licensors be liable for the removal of or disabling of access to any such Services.

NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY APPLE OR AN APPLE AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE WILL CREATE A WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

In no event shall Apple’s total liability to You under this Agreement for all damages (other than as may be required by applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the amount of fifty dollars ($50.00).

	  
	15. General Legal Terms

 

15.1 Third Party Notices. Portions of the Apple Software or services may utilize or include third party software and other copyrighted material.

15.3 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned, nor may any of Your obligations under this Agreement be delegated, in whole or in part, by You by operation of law, merger, or any other means without Apple’s express prior written consent and any attempted assignment without such consent will be null and void.

 

15.4 Relationship of Parties. Except for the agency appointment as specifically set forth in Schedule 1 (if applicable), this Agreement will not be construed as creating any other agency relationship, or a partnership, joint venture, fiduciary duty, or any other form of legal association between You and Apple, and You will not represent to the contrary, whether expressly, by implication, appearance or otherwise. This Agreement is not for the benefit of any third parties.

If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any clause of this Agreement to be unenforceable for any reason, that clause of this Agreement shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of the parties, and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. However, if applicable law prohibits or restricts You from fully and specifically complying with, or appointing Apple and Apple Subsidiaries as Your agent under, Schedule 1 or the Sections of this Agreement entitled “Internal Use License and Restrictions”, “Your Obligations” or “Digital Signing of Applications; Restrictions on Certificates”, or prevents the enforceability of any of those Sections or Schedule 1, this Agreement will immediately terminate and You must immediately discontinue any use of the Apple Software as described in the Section entitled “Term and Termination.”

 

15.8 Waiver and Construction. Failure by Apple to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision. Any laws or regulations that provide that the language of a contract will be construed against the drafter will not apply to this Agreement. Section headings are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

	1. Use of the APN and Local Notifications

 

1.1 Your Application may only access the APN via the APN API and only if You have been assigned a Push Application ID by Apple. You agree not to share your Push Application ID with any third party. You understand that Your Application will not be permitted to access or use the APN after expiration or termination of Your Agreement.

 

1.2 You are only permitted to use the APN and the APN APIs for the purpose of sending Push Notifications to Your Application on an iOS Product as expressly permitted by the Agreement (including but not limited to this Attachment 1) and the APN Documentation, and You must only do so in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations (including all intellectual property laws). You further agree that You must disclose to Apple any use of the APN as part of the submission process for Your Application.

 

1.3 You understand that before You send an end user any Push Notifications through the APN, the end user must provide consent to receive such Notifications. You agree not to disable, override or otherwise interfere with any Apple-implemented consent panels or any Apple system preferences for enabling or disabling Notifications functionality. If the end user’s consent to receive Push Notifications is denied or later withdrawn, You may not send the end user Push Notifications.

	  
	2. Additional Requirements

 

2.1 You may not use the APN or Local Notifications for the purpose of sending unsolicited messages to end users or for the purpose of phishing or spamming, including, but not limited to, engaging in any types of activities that violate anti-spamming laws and regulations, or that are otherwise improper, inappropriate or illegal.

 

2.2 You may not use the APN or Local Notifications for the purposes of advertising, product promotion, or direct marketing of any kind (e.g. up-selling, cross-selling, etc.), including, but not limited to, sending any messages to promote the use of Your Application or advertise the availability of new features or versions.

 

2.3 You may not excessively use the overall network capacity or bandwidth of the APN, or unduly burden an iOS Product with excessive Push Notifications or Local Notifications, as may be determined by Apple in its reasonable discretion. In addition, You agree not to harm or interfere with Apple’s networks or servers, or any third party servers or networks connected to the APN, or otherwise disrupt other developers’ use of the APN.

 

2.4 You may not use the APN or Local Notifications to send material that contains any obscene, pornographic, offensive or defamatory content or materials of any kind (text, graphics, images, photographs, sounds, etc.), or other content or materials that in Apple’s reasonable judgment may be found objectionable by the end user of Your Application.

 

2.5 You may not transmit, store or otherwise make available any material that contains viruses or any other computer code, files or programs that may harm, disrupt or limit the normal operation of the APN or an iOS Product, and You agree not to disable, spoof, hack or otherwise interfere with any security, digital signing, verification or authentication mechanisms that are incorporated in or used by the APN, or enable others to do so.

You acknowledge and agree that the APN is not, and is not intended to be, a guaranteed or secure delivery service, and You shall not use or rely upon it as such. Further, as a condition to using the APN or delivering Local Notifications, You agree not to transmit sensitive personal or confidential information belonging to an individual (e.g. a social security number, financial account or transactional information, or any information where the individual may have a reasonable expectation of secure transmission) as part of any such Notification, and You agree to comply with any applicable notice or consent requirements with respect to any collection, transmission, maintenance, processing or use of an end user’s personal information.

	5. Third Party Service Providers

 

You are permitted to employ or retain a third party (“Service Provider”) to assist You in accessing and using the APN in Your Applications including, but not limited to, engaging any such Service Provider to maintain and administer Your Applications’ servers on Your behalf, provided any such Service Provider’s access to and use of the APN is only done on Your behalf in providing such services to You for Your Application and in accordance with these terms, and is subject to a binding written agreement between You and the Service Provider with terms at least as restrictive and protective of Apple as those set forth herein, including, but not limited to, confidentiality for pre-release versions of the APN and indemnity obligations to Apple. Any actions undertaken by any such Service Provider in relation to Your Push Application and/or arising out of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been taken by You, and You (in addition to the Service Provider) shall be responsible to Apple for all such actions (or any inactions), including but not limited to indemnifying Apple against any harm caused by the Service Provider acting on Your behalf. In the event of any actions or inactions that would constitute a violation of this Agreement or otherwise cause any harm, Apple reserves the right to require You to change Service Providers.

	1. Use of the In App Purchase API

 

1.1 You may use the In App Purchase API only to enable end users to purchase content, functionality, or services that You make available for use within Your Application (e.g. digital books, additional game levels, access to a turn-by-turn map service). You may not use the In App Purchase API to offer goods or services to be used outside of Your Application.

 

1.2 You must submit to Apple for review and approval all content, functionality, or services that You plan to provide through the use of the In App Purchase API in accordance with these terms and the processes set forth in Section 6 of the Agreement. For all submissions, You must provide the name, text description, price, unique identifier number, and other information that Apple reasonably requests (collectively, the “Submission Description”). Apple reserves the right to review the actual content, functionality or service that has been described in the Submission Descriptions at any time, including, but not limited to, in the submission process and after approval of the Submission Description by Apple. If You would like to provide additional content, functionality or services through the In App Purchase API that are not described in Your Submission Description, then You must first submit a new or updated Submission Description for review and approval by Apple prior to making such items available through the use of the In App Purchase API. Apple reserves the right to withdraw its approval of content, functionality, or services previously approved, and You agree to stop making any such content, functionality, or services available for use within Your Application.

 

1.3 All content, functionality, and services offered through the In App Purchase API are subject to the Program Requirements for Applications, and after such content, services or functionality are added to a Licensed Application, they will be deemed part of the Licensed Application and will be subject to all the same obligations and requirements.

	  
	2. Additional Restrictions

 

2.1 You may not use the In App Purchase API to enable an end user to set up a pre-paid account to be used for subsequent purchases of content, functionality, or services, or otherwise create balances or credits that end users can redeem or use to make purchases at a later time.

 

2.2 You may not enable end users to purchase Currency of any kind through the In App Purchase API, including but not limited to any Currency for exchange, gifting, redemption, transfer, trading or use in purchasing or obtaining anything within or outside of Your Application. “Currency” means any form of currency, points, credits, resources, content or other items or units recognized by a group of individuals or entities as representing a particular value and that can be transferred or circulated as a medium of exchange.

 

2.3 Content and services may be offered through the In App Purchase API on a subscription basis (e.g., subscriptions to newspapers and magazines). Rentals of content, services or functionality through the In App Purchase API are not allowed (e.g., use of particular content may not be restricted to a pre-determined, limited period of time).

 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.3.9 of the Agreement, if Your Licensed Application is content based (e.g., magazines and newspapers) and offered on a subscription basis, You may collect certain user data (e.g., user name, email address, zip code), provided that You clearly and conspicuously notify the user of Your privacy policy and that its terms will govern the ways that You may use such information, and further provided that the user consents to Your collection and use prior to gathering such data. You agree to maintain, and strictly comply with the terms of, Your privacy policy.

2.5 You may not use the In App Purchase API to deliver any items that contain content or materials of any kind (text, graphics, images, photographs, sounds, etc.) that in Apple’s reasonable judgment may be found objectionable, for example, materials that may be considered obscene, pornographic, or defamatory.

 

2.6 With the exception of items of content that an end user consumes or uses up within Your Application (e.g. poker chips or virtual supplies such as construction materials) (a “Consumable”), any other content, functionality, services or subscriptions purchased through the use of the In App Purchase API must be made available to end users in accordance with the same usage rules as Licensed Applications (e.g. any such content, services or functionality must be available to all of the devices associated with an end user’s account). You will be responsible for identifying Consumable items to Apple and for disclosing to end users that Consumables will not be available for use on other devices.

	  
	3. Your Responsibilities

You agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including those in any jurisdictions in which you make content, functionality, services or subscriptions available through the use of the In App Purchase API, including but not limited to consumer laws and export regulations.

 

3.3 You are responsible for providing items purchased through the In App Purchase API in a timely manner (i.e., promptly after Apple issues the transaction receipt, except in cases where You have disclosed to Your end user that the item will be made available at a later time) and for complying with all applicable laws in connection therewith, including but not limited to, laws, rules and regulations related to cancellation or delivery of ordered items. You are responsible for maintaining Your own records for all such transactions.

 

3.4 You will not issue any refunds to end users of Your Application, and You agree that Apple may issue refunds to end users in accordance with the terms of Schedule 2.
