services or updates for the software, except to the extent those have additional terms.

IF YOU COMPLY WITH THESE LICENSE TERMS, YOU HAVE THE RIGHTS BELOW.

3. DATA.  
a. Data Collection. The software may collect information about you and your use of the software, 
and send that to Microsoft. Microsoft may use this information to provide services and improve 
our products and services.  You may opt-out of many of these scenarios, but not all, as described 
in the product documentation.  There are also some features in the software that may enable

4. SCOPE OF LICENSE. The software is licensed, not sold. This agreement only gives you some rights 
to use the software. Microsoft reserves all other rights. Unless applicable law gives you more rights 
despite this limitation, you may use the software only as expressly permitted in this agreement. In 
doing so, you must comply with any technical limitations in the software that only allow you to use it 
in certain ways. For more information, see www.microsoft.com/licensing/userights. You may not
* work around any technical limitations in the software;
* reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the software, or attempt to do so, except and only to 
the extent required by third party licensing terms governing use of certain open-source 
components that may be included with the software;
* remove, minimize, block or modify any notices of Microsoft or its suppliers in the software; 
* use the software in any way that is against the law; or

regulations that apply to the software, which include restrictions on destinations, end users and end 
use.  For further information on export restrictions, visit (aka.ms/exporting).

6. SUPPORT SERVICES. Because this software is “as is,” we may not provide support services for it.

7. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This agreement, and the terms for supplements, updates, Internet-based 
services and support services that you use, are the entire agreement for the software and support 
services.

8. APPLICABLE LAW.  If you acquired the software in the United States, Washington law applies to 
interpretation of and claims for breach of this agreement, and the laws of the state where you live 
apply to all other claims. If you acquired the software in any other country, its laws apply.

9. CONSUMER RIGHTS; REGIONAL VARIATIONS. This agreement describes certain legal rights. 
You may have other rights, including consumer rights, under the laws of your state or country. 
Separate and apart from your relationship with Microsoft, you may also have rights with respect to 
the party from which you acquired the software. This agreement does not change those other rights 
if the laws of your state or country do not permit it to do so. For example, if you acquired the 
software in one of the below regions, or mandatory country law applies, then the following provisions 
apply to you:
a. Australia. You have statutory guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law and nothing in 
this agreement is intended to affect those rights.
b. Canada. If you acquired this software in Canada, you may stop receiving updates by turning off 
the automatic update feature, disconnecting your device from the Internet (if and when you re-
connect to the Internet, however, the software will resume checking for and installing updates), 
or uninstalling the software. The product documentation, if any, may also specify how to turn off 
updates for your specific device or software.
c. Germany and Austria.
(i) Warranty. The properly licensed software will perform substantially as described in any 
Microsoft materials that accompany the software. However, Microsoft gives no contractual 
guarantee in relation to the licensed software.
(ii) Limitation of Liability. In case of intentional conduct, gross negligence, claims based 
on the Product Liability Act, as well as, in case of death or personal or physical injury, Microsoft is 
liable according to the statutory law.
Subject to the foregoing clause (ii), Microsoft will only be liable for slight negligence if Microsoft is 
in breach of such material contractual obligations, the fulfillment of which facilitate the due 
performance of this agreement, the breach of which would endanger the purpose of this 
agreement and the compliance with which a party may constantly trust in (so-called "cardinal 
obligations"). In other cases of slight negligence, Microsoft will not be liable for slight negligence.

10. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. THE SOFTWARE IS LICENSED “AS-IS.” YOU BEAR THE RISK 
OF USING IT. MICROSOFT GIVES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES, GUARANTEES OR 
CONDITIONS. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER YOUR LOCAL LAWS, MICROSOFT 
EXCLUDES THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A 
PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. 

11. LIMITATION ON AND EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES. YOU CAN RECOVER FROM MICROSOFT 
AND ITS SUPPLIERS ONLY DIRECT DAMAGES UP TO U.S. $5.00. YOU CANNOT RECOVER 
ANY OTHER DAMAGES, INCLUDING CONSEQUENTIAL, LOST PROFITS, SPECIAL, 
INDIRECT OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES.

This limitation applies to (a) anything related to the software, services, content (including code) on 
third party Internet sites, or third party applications; and (b) claims for breach of contract, breach of 
warranty, guarantee or condition, strict liability, negligence, or other tort to the extent permitted by 
applicable law.

It also applies even if Microsoft knew or should have known about the possibility of the damages. 
The above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you because your country may not allow the 
exclusion or limitation of incidental, consequential or other damages.

DOMMAGES. Vous pouvez obtenir de Microsoft et de ses fournisseurs une indemnisation en cas de

indemnisation pour les autres dommages, y compris les dommages spéciaux, indirects ou accessoires et

Elle s’applique également, même si Microsoft connaissait ou devrait connaître l’éventualité d’un tel 
dommage. Si votre pays n’autorise pas l’exclusion ou la limitation de responsabilité pour les dommages 
indirects, accessoires ou de quelque nature que ce soit, il se peut que la limitation ou l’exclusion ci-dessus 
ne s’appliquera pas à votre égard.

EFFET JURIDIQUE. Le présent contrat décrit certains droits juridiques. Vous pourriez avoir d’autres 
droits prévus par les lois de votre pays. Le présent contrat ne modifie pas les droits que vous confèrent 
les lois de votre pays si celles-ci ne le permettent pas.
