<p>1.1 Your use of Google’s products, software, services and websites (referred to collectively as the “Services” in this document and excluding any services provided to you by Google under a separate written agreement) is subject to the terms of a legal agreement between you and Google. “Google” means Google Inc., whose principal place of business is at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States. This document explains how the agreement is made up and sets out some of the terms of that agreement.</p> |
<p>1.2 Unless otherwise agreed in writing with Google, your agreement with Google will always include, at a minimum, the terms and conditions set out in this document. These are referred to below as the “Universal Terms”. Open-source software licences for Google Chrome source code constitute separate written agreements. To the limited extent that the open-source software licences expressly supersede these Universal Terms, the open-source licences govern your agreement with Google for the use of Google Chrome or specific included components of Google Chrome.</p> |
-<p>1.3 Your agreement with Google will also include the terms set forth in Appendix A to this document and terms of any Legal Notices applicable to the Services, in addition to the Universal Terms. All of these are referred to below as the “Additional Terms”. Where Additional Terms apply to a Service, these will be accessible for you to read either within or through your use of that Service.</p> |

<p>1.4 The Universal Terms, together with the Additional Terms, form a legally binding agreement between you and Google in relation to your use of the Services. It is important that you take the time to read them carefully. Collectively, this legal agreement is referred to below as the “Terms”.</p> |

Unless you have agreed otherwise in writing with Google, you agree that you are responsible for protecting and enforcing those rights and that Google has no obligation to do so on your behalf.</p> |
<p>8.5 You agree that you shall not remove, obscure or alter any proprietary rights notices (including copyright and trade-mark notices) that may be affixed to or contained within the Services.</p> |

This licence is for the sole purpose of enabling you to use and enjoy the benefit of the Services as provided by Google, in the manner permitted by the Terms.</p> |

<p>20.1 These terms in this section apply if you install extensions on your copy of Google Chrome. Extensions are small software programmes, developed by Google or third parties that can modify and enhance the functionality of Google Chrome. Extensions may have greater privileges to access your browser or your computer than regular web pages, including the ability to read and modify your private data.</p> |
<p>20.2 From time to time, Google Chrome may check with remote servers (hosted by Google or by third parties) for available updates to extensions, including, but not limited to bug fixes or enhanced functionality. You agree that such updates will be requested automatically, downloaded and installed without further notice to you.</p> |
<p>20.3 From time to time, Google may discover an extension that violates Google developer terms or other legal agreements, laws, regulations or policies. Google Chrome will periodically download a list of such extensions from Google’s servers. You agree that Google may remotely disable or remove any such extension from user systems at its sole discretion. </p> |

<p>(b) Sublicensee will not expose any APIs of the Flash Player, Version 10.x through a browser plug-in interface in such a way that allows such extension to be used to play back content from a web page as a stand-alone application.</p> |
<p>(c) The Chrome-Reader Software may not be used to render any PDF or EPUB documents that utilise digital-rights management protocols or systems other than Adobe DRM.</p> |

With relation to Electronic Transmissions approved hereunder, Sublicensee agrees to employ any reasonable usage restrictions set by Adobe, including those related to security and/or the restriction of distribution to end users of the Sublicensee's Product.</p> |

All codecs provided with the Adobe Software may only be used and distributed as an integrated part of the Adobe Software and may not be accessed by any other application, including other Google applications.</p> |
<p>(c) The Source Code may be provided with an AAC codec and/or HE-AAC codec (“the AAC Codec”). Use of the AAC Codec is conditioned on Sublicensee obtaining a proper patent licence covering necessary patents, as provided by VIA Licensing, for end products on or in which the AAC Codec will be used.

<p>(d) Injunctive Relief. Sublicensee agrees that a breach of this Agreement may compromise the Content Protection Functions of the Adobe Software and may cause unique and lasting harm to the interests of Adobe and owners of digital content who rely on such Content Protection Functions, and that monetary damages may be inadequate to compensate fully for such harm. Therefore, Sublicensee further agrees that Adobe may be entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent or limit the harm caused by any such breach, in addition to monetary damages.</p> |
<p>17. Intended Third-party Beneficiary. Adobe Systems Incorporated and Adobe Software Ireland Limited are the intended third-party beneficiaries of Google’s agreement with Sublicensee with respect to the Adobe Software, including, but not limited to, the Adobe Terms. Sublicensee agrees, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in its agreement with Google, that Google may disclose Sublicensee’s identity to Adobe and certify in writing that Sublicensee has entered into a licensing agreement with Google which includes the Adobe Terms. Sublicensee must have an agreement with each of its licensees and if such licensees are allowed to redistribute the Adobe Software, such agreement will include the Adobe Terms.</p> |
