End User License Agreement

1. This agreement

This End User License Agreement (“EULA”) is a legal agreement between you and Deadlane Software LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“we”, “us”), for the DEADLANE game software, the DEADLANE Windows launcher, and any updates, patches and related files (together, the “Software”).

By installing, copying or using the Software, or by selecting “Accept” in the Software, you agree to this EULA, our Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, don't install or use the Software. If you are under 18, a parent or legal guardian must agree on your behalf.

Disputes under this EULA are resolved by binding individual arbitration and a class-action waiver, as described in section 17 of the Terms of Service.

2. License grant

Subject to this EULA and the Terms of Service, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download, install and use one copy of the Software on each device you own or control, solely for your own non-commercial entertainment. The Software is licensed, not sold, and we and our licensors keep all rights not expressly granted to you.

3. Restrictions

You may not, and may not allow or help anyone else to:

• copy, distribute, sell, rent, lease, lend, sublicense or otherwise transfer the Software, or make it available over a network for use by others;
• reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, decrypt or try to derive the source code of the Software, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits it despite this restriction;
• modify the Software, create derivative works of it, or alter or bypass its security, anti-cheat, licensing or update mechanisms;
• create, use or distribute cheats, bots, automation, macros, trainers, modified clients, or any software that interferes with the Software or its online services;
• extract, datamine or redistribute the Software's assets (art, audio, text, data files) outside personal, non-commercial fan commentary;
• remove, alter or obscure any copyright, trademark or other notice in the Software; or
• use the Software in violation of any law.

Streaming and posting videos or screenshots of your gameplay for non-commercial or monetized personal channels is welcome, as long as you don't present it as official DEADLANE content.

4. Pre-release software

The Software is an unfinished closed-beta version distributed to invited testers. It may contain errors, crash, perform poorly, or lose saved progress, and features may change or be removed. Don't rely on it for anything other than entertainment and testing. Beta-specific rules, including progress resets, are in section 3 of the Terms of Service.

5. Updates

The Software and the Windows launcher may check for, download and install updates automatically, and you consent to these automatic updates. Some updates may be required to keep using the Software or its online features. Updates are part of the Software and are covered by this EULA unless they come with different terms.

6. Online features

Cloud saves, cross-device play, leaderboards and rewards require an internet connection and a DEADLANE account, and are provided under the Terms of Service. You can play offline without an account. We may change or discontinue online features at any time.

7. Ownership

The Software and everything in it, including code, characters, art, animation, music, sound, text, the DEADLANE name and logos, and all virtual items, are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws. DEADLANE is a work of satire: its characters, companies and events are fictional, and any resemblance to real persons or organizations is coincidental or for the purpose of parody.

8. Third-party components

The Software includes components licensed from third parties, including the Unity engine. Those components are provided under their own license terms, which apply to them in addition to this EULA. Notices for third-party components are available on request at support@deadlane.com.

9. Termination

This EULA lasts until terminated. You may end it at any time by uninstalling the Software and deleting all copies. It ends automatically, without notice, if you breach it or if your access is terminated under the Terms of Service. On termination you must stop using the Software and delete all copies. Sections 3, 7 and 10 through 15 survive termination.

10. No warranty

The Software is provided “as is” and “as available”, with all faults and without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express, implied or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, quiet enjoyment and non-infringement, and any warranty that the Software will be uninterrupted, error-free, compatible with your device, free of harmful components, or that progress or data will be preserved.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for loss of data, progress, profits or goodwill, or device damage or malfunction, arising out of or related to the Software or this EULA, even if advised of the possibility. Our total liability under this EULA and the Terms of Service combined is limited as set out in section 15 of the Terms of Service.

Some jurisdictions don't allow certain exclusions or limits, so some of the above may not apply to you.

12. Export & sanctions

You may not use, export or re-export the Software in violation of U.S. or other applicable export control and sanctions laws, including into an embargoed country or by a person on a U.S. government restricted-party list. You represent that you are not such a person.

13. App store terms

If you obtained the Software from Google Play, Steam or another store, this EULA is between you and us only, not the store. The store is not responsible for the Software, has no obligation to provide maintenance or support, and is not responsible for any claims relating to the Software, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, or intellectual property claims. Your use of the Software must also comply with the store's own terms of use. If a store's terms require a provision that conflicts with this EULA, that store's terms control for copies obtained from that store.

14. Disputes & governing law

This EULA is governed by the laws of the State of Texas and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this EULA or the Software is resolved under section 17 (Disputes & arbitration) and section 18 (Governing law & venue) of the Terms of Service, including binding individual arbitration, the class-action waiver and the 30-day opt-out. If you live outside the United States, mandatory consumer protection laws of your country still apply.

15. General

Order of precedence. If this EULA conflicts with the Terms of Service about the Software itself, this EULA controls; for accounts, online services, virtual items and purchases, the Terms of Service control.

Changes. We may update this EULA. For material changes we will give notice in the Software or by email before they take effect; continuing to use the Software after that means you accept the updated EULA.

Miscellaneous. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign this EULA; we may assign it in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
