TERMS OF USE OF UBISOFT SERVICES

Last revised : May 12th, 2020

“WE ALL PLAY BY THE SAME RULES”

WELCOME TO THE UBISOFT WORLDS!

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY.

Ubisoft teams create authentic and memorable experiences for our players to have fun, share and blossom through games, applications, web sites and online services (what we call our « Services »). To let you enjoy our Services, we crafted rules that apply to everything and everyone in our communities: you, other players and ourselves. You agree to this “Terms of Use” by using the Services and Content defined below

1 What are the Ubisoft Services and Content ?

1.1 The Ubisoft Services (“Services”) include the games, downloadable contents, season passes, and other game software (contained on disc or other physical medium or downloaded or streamed), and other software products and online and mobile services, including their online functions and other features, together with any of their update and upgrade, the related websites, the Uplay platform and any other Ubisoft platform, the Uplay+ subscription service, the live events hosted, the servers, software and the framework through which they are provided to you, currently or in the future, by UBISOFT ENTERTAINMENT S.A., or any one of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies, including UBISOFT EMEA SAS and UBISOFT LTD. (collectively “Ubisoft” or “we”).

1.2 These terms of use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of such Services ("user" or "you"). By using the Services and Content (defined below), you accept and agree to comply with these Terms and any particular age and territorial criteria. Additional terms may be applicable to a specific Service, including for example the Terms of Sale of the Ubisoft Store, the End User License Agreement and code(s) of conduct (“Code of Conduct”). In addition, our Privacy Policy will give you a clear understanding of our use of the personal data we may collect from you during your use of the Services. Please make sure to read all these documents before accessing a Service.

« Content » means any elements which are part of the Services, including but not limited to in-game items, customization elements, maps, avatars, all gameplay, graphics, music and sounds, text, all messages or items of information, names, themes, objects, scenery, costumes, effects, dialogues, slogans, places, characters, diagrams, concepts, choreographies, videos, audio-visual effects, domain names. This includes elements created by you and other users, called User Generated Content (defined in Article 11); Ubisoft Virtual Currency (defined in Article 3.3) and Test Content (defined in Article 12).

1.3 The Services and Content are licensed to you, not sold. This means we grant you a personal, limited, non-transferable and revocable right and license to use the Services and access the Content, for your entertainment, non-commercial use, subject to your compliance with these Terms.

2 How to create an Account and what do you need to know when creating an Account ?

2.1 You may need to create a Ubisoft account (an “Account”) to access and use certain Services, including to play online. You can create one by supplying accurate, complete and up-to-date information, including a valid email address.

We may need to check the accuracy of these information, including by checking telephone numbers and e-mail address, notably to protect minors, other users and prevent risks of fraud. You agree to send the necessary documents (which may include a copy of your identity card or passport) by any means upon our request.

If You need information or have any question regarding Your Account, please visit https://support.ubi.com/Account or https://account.ubisoft.com.

2.2 Account Safety. Any use of your Account with your password, in particular any purchase of Services, will be deemed to be carried out by you.

To ensure your Account safety:

a) Choose a strong alphanumeric password. For security reasons, we may refuse any password that isn’t strong enough to protect your Account.

b) Choose a password that is different from any other password you use; and change it on a regular basis.

c) Activate the 2-Step Verification and any other safety options we may provide in your Account settings.

d) Never share your Account details (username, password…) with anyone. We will never ask you to reveal your password.

e) Never authorize anyone to access and/or use your Account.

2.3 You agree to inform us as quickly as possible at https://support.ubi.com of any unauthorised use of your username, password or other information of your Account and of any security violation involving the Services which comes to your attention.

2.4 Username/Avatar creation. You may need to create a username and/or avatar to access and use certain Services. They will be linked to your Account and publicly displayed. We therefore advise you not to include your real name in your username.

You cannot choose a username or an avatar which (i) is already used by another user or associated with another Account or (ii) contains “Ubi” or “Ubisoft” or the Ubisoft logo. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to refuse any username and/or avatar you have chosen.

2.5 Multiple Accounts. You must not create multiple accounts, except if we specifically allow it. In such case, you acknowledge that you will close your additional Account upon our request, or that we may terminate your additional Account.

3 What conditions apply to your use of our Services?

3.1 Forums. The Services may contain forums, information groups, chats or other types of online discussion areas (collectively known as “Forums”). When you use the Forums, you should be aware that your avatar, username and your messages will be public and viewable by any user who visits the Forums (unless you are in a private Forum). You send your messages at your own risk. You have sole responsibility for their submission, publication and dissemination.

Keep these security measures in mind when communicating with other users in the Forums:

Never share information that can be used to identify you in real life.

Never accept requests to meet in real life someone you have chatted with, especially if this person asks you to keep your conversations or the meeting a secret, and reject any invitation to join apps or channels outside the Services.

Report any behaviour or content you find suspicious or inappropriate, including chats you had with another user that made you uncomfortable.

Make sure to talk to someone from your close circle and use the blacklist feature, when available in a Service, to make sure you don’t receive unwanted messages.

3.2 Ubisoft Store. We enable you to purchase products via our online store accessible at https://store.ubi.com/ or through Uplay. We may limit your ability to purchase products based on multiple criteria including, but not limited to, your age, limited quantities of products available, etc. We may offer periodical promotions for which separate terms apply.

3.3 Credits, virtual currency. We may license to you access or use of online or off-line elements of Services, including without limitation virtual points, coins or currencies (collectively "Ubisoft Virtual Currency"). When you obtain Ubisoft Virtual Currency from us or our authorized partners, you receive a personal, limited, non-assignable, non-exclusive, revocable license to access and select the Ubisoft Virtual Currency that we expressly make available to you.

Ubisoft Virtual Currency has no monetary value and has no value outside of our Services. Ubisoft Virtual Currency cannot be sold, traded, transferred, or exchanged for cash; it only may be redeemed for Content available on the Services. Ubisoft Virtual Currency is non-refundable, and you are not entitled to a refund for any unused Ubisoft Virtual Currency, except if required by law. Once you redeem Ubisoft Virtual Currency for Content, that Content is not returnable, exchangeable, or refundable.

you may spend using your Wallet.

We may update such limits from time to time, at our discretion.

3.5 Prepaid Cards. We may enable you to purchase and/or redeem prepaid cards to purchase Content and/or Services and/or fund a Wallet. You may not be able to fund a Wallet by applying the value of a given prepaid card if your Wallet already reached the limits mentioned in Article 3.4.

3.6 Technical Protective Measures – Internet connection – Digital Rights Management. We may protect certain Services by using technical protection measures and digital rights management, including for example, physical protection, watermarking, digital keys activation, direct entitlement. You may need a permanent high-speed internet connection to access online functions, play online and access and use some Content, including Content which may be unlocked once only with a unique key and certain Services incorporating Digital Rights Management technology.

3.7 Mobile Services. You may access certain Services via certain mobile phones, smartphones, tablets and other compatible mobile terminals. To do so, you must have the permission of the person who pays the bill for the mobile terminal, and be provided with Internet access via such mobile terminal. Use of your mobile terminal may lead to connection costs for which we are not responsible. Certain Mobile Services offer you in-game purchases and micro-transactions. Your comfort may vary depending on the capacities and functions of your mobile terminal and the communications network. We cannot guarantee a comfort equal to that experienced when connecting to the Services via other devices.

4 How can we modify our Services?

4.1 General. We do not guarantee that the Services will be available at all times, in all locations worldwide, and/or on all devices.

We may specify terms of use for this Ubisoft Software at the time at which it is made available to you. The performances of the Ubisoft Software and Services may vary depending on your equipment.
