As a condition of your downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Services, you warrant to GiiLD that you will not use the Services for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by this Agreement. For example, you may not (and may not authorize any party to): (i) co-brand or rebrand the Services, (ii) transfer, assign or sublicense your login information, license keys, or any other credentials or tools necessary for your access or use of the Services, or the licenses granted to you, to another person or entity and you acknowledge that any attempted transfer, assignment, sublicense or use shall be void; (iii) make error corrections to, or otherwise modify or adapt, the Services or to create derivative works based upon the Services, or permit third parties to do the same; (iv) reverse engineer or decompile, decrypt, disassemble or otherwise reduce the Services to human-readable form, except to the extent otherwise expressly permitted under applicable law notwithstanding this restriction; (v) use or permit the Services to be used to perform services for third parties, whether on a service bureau or time sharing basis or otherwise, without the express written authorization of GiiLD; (vi) disclose, provide, or otherwise make available trade secrets contained within the Services in any form, to any third party without the prior written consent of GiiLD; (vii) use GiiLD's Intellectual Property to develop any software application or products or services similar to the Services; or (viii) perform, display, or otherwise access or use the Services for the benefit of others outside of the scope of license provided in this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “co-branding” means to display a name, logo, trademark, or other means of attribution or identification of any party in such a manner as is reasonably likely to give a User the impression that such other party has the right to license, resell, provide access to, display, publish, or distribute the Services including without limitation any Content accessible within the Services. You agree to cooperate with GiiLD in causing any violation of these restrictions to cease. In addition, you may not use Services in any manner which could disable, overburden, damage, or impair the Services or interfere with any other party's use and enjoyment of the Services.

GiiLD may disclose information when subpoenaed, if ordered or otherwise required by a court of law, arbitrator, or other similar proceeding or the rules governing such a proceeding, for government investigations, with government agencies if required by law, to exercise, establish, or defend GiiLD's rights, to protect your interests or those of any other third party, and when GiiLD otherwise believes in good faith that any applicable law requires it.
6. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. The material and content accessible as a part of the Services (excluding your own software and information that you enter into the Services) including without limitation all Intellectual Property in or related thereto, whether photos or other images, video, audio, text, or otherwise (the “Content”), whether provided by GiiLD or its licensors, is the proprietary information of GiiLD or the party that provided or licensed the Content to GiiLD, whereby such providing party retains all right, title, and interest in the Content. Accordingly, the Content may not be copied, distributed, republished, uploaded, posted, or transmitted in any way outside of the normal functionality of the Services and in accordance with this Agreement without the prior written consent of GiiLD or, in the case of Content provided by another party, with the prior written consent of that other party.

Neither title nor Intellectual Property rights related to the Content are transferred to you by access to the Services.
7. PROPRIETARY NOTICES. You agree to maintain and reproduce all copyright, patent, trademark and other proprietary notices on all copies, in any form, of the Services and its Content, in the same form and manner that such copyright, patent, trademark, and other proprietary notices are included on or in the Services, whether they are GiiLD notices or those of third parties.

Disclosures of Confidential Information will be restricted to those individuals who are participating in the performance of this Agreement and who need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of receiving and/or using the Confidential Information in a way expressly permitted by this Agreement. Confidential Information of GiiLD may not be used for any purpose except as authorized under this Agreement. Confidential Information of GiiLD may be disclosed in response to a valid court order or other legal process only to the extent required by such order or process and only after you have given GiiLD written notice, if legally allowed, of such court order or other legal process promptly and the opportunity for GiiLD to seek a protective order or confidential treatment of such Confidential Information, at GiiLD's expense, with reasonable cooperation by you. GiiLD shall retain all ownership of its Confidential Information including without limitation all Intellectual Property in Confidential Information. Subject to the licenses granted in this Agreement, you agree, both during the term of the Agreement and after the termination of the Agreement to hold GiiLD Confidential Information in confidence and to protect the disclosed Confidential Information by using the same degree of care to prevent the unauthorized use, dissemination or publication of the Confidential Information as you use to protect your own Confidential Information of a like nature but in no event with less than reasonable care. You shall be responsible and liable under the terms of this Agreement for any violation of the confidentiality requirements of this Section committed by your employees, agents, representatives, or independent contractors.
9. MODIFICATIONS, MAINTENANCE AND UPGRADES. You acknowledge that the licenses granted herein do not automatically entitle you to future upgrades, updates and fixes to that which is licensed, or to any maintenance services. Nothing herein shall prevent you and GiiLD from entering into a separate agreement regarding such upgrades, updates, fixes, maintenance services or other service provided by GiiLD, and to the extent GiiLD supplies any Modifications to you through any existing license without separate terms and conditions from this EULA, such Modifications shall be subject to the rights and obligations, including without limitation the applicable license terms and license restrictions, set forth in and referenced by this Agreement.
10. DEVICE RESPONSIBILITY AND DEPENDENCIES.

If any Modification to the Services requires changes in your Device, Internet connection, equipment or software, you must make these changes at your own expense, and failure to do so may render part or all of the Services inoperable.
11. TERMINATION. In addition to any other termination rights set forth in this Agreement, GiiLD may terminate this Agreement, or any or all individual licenses granted hereunder, without notice and for any or no reason at any time. All licenses granted by GiiLD under this Agreement immediately terminate upon any termination of this Agreement for any reason. If you terminate this Agreement or a subscription license prior to the end of your then-current pre-paid subscription license term, for any reason, your prepaid fees are non-refundable. The licenses granted by GiiLD under this Agreement also immediately terminate upon any breach by you of this Agreement and you shall not be entitled to any refund of any pre-paid fees due to such termination.

Except for those provisions granting from GiiLD to you any license in relation to the Services (which will terminate), the provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of any licenses or termination of this Agreement.
