This license applies to the Visual Studio Code Remote Development Extensions.
MICROSOFT PRE-RELEASE SOFTWARE LICENSE TERMS
MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO CODE REMOTE DEVELOPMENT EXTENSIONS
These license terms are an agreement between you and Microsoft Corporation (or
based on where you live, one of its affiliates). They apply to the pre-release
software named above. The terms also apply to any Microsoft 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.
1. INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.
a. General. You may use a copy of the software with each validly licensed copy
of Microsoft Visual Studio Code. You may not use the software if you do not
have a license for Microsoft Visual Studio Code. You may copy and install files
from the software onto your application development devices, including physical
devices and virtual machines or containers on those machines, which are (i)
owned by you and located on-premises or hosted on your own private cloud or
data center, or (ii) remote devices, virtual machines, or containers which are
dedicated solely to your use and hosted for you on Microsoft Azure or by other
cloud hosting providers (collectively, “Development Devices”). You and others
in your organization may use these files on your Development Devices solely
to develop and test applications. For clarity, “applications” means applications
developed by you and others in your organization who are each licensed to use
Microsoft Visual Studio Code.
b. Demo Use. The uses permitted above include use of the software in demonstrating
your applications.
c. Third Party Components. The software may include third party components with
separate legal notices or governed by other agreements, as may be described
in the ThirdPartyNotices file(s) accompanying the software.
d. Extensions. The software gives you the option to download other Microsoft
and third party software packages from our extension marketplace or package
managers. Those packages are under their own licenses, and not this agreement.
Microsoft does not distribute, license or provide any warranties for any of
the third party packages. By accessing or using our extension marketplace, you
agree to the extension marketplace terms located at https://aka.ms/vsmarketplace-ToU.
2. PRE-RELEASE SOFTWARE. The software is a pre-release version. It may not work
the way a final version of the software will. Microsoft may change it for the
final, commercial version. We also may not release a commercial version. Microsoft
is not obligated to provide maintenance, technical support or updates to you
for the software.
3. ONLINE SERVICES IN THE SOFTWARE. Some features of the software make use of
online services to provide you with updates to the software or extensions, to
download or install additional software to enable use of this software, or to
enable you to retrieve content, collaborate with others, or otherwise supplement
your development. As used throughout this agreement, the term “software”
includes these online service features.
4. 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
located at https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/supporting/faq#_how-to-disable-telemetry-reporting.
There may also be some features in the software that may enable you and Microsoft
to collect data from users of your applications. If you use these features,
you must comply with applicable law, including providing appropriate notices
to users of your applications together with Microsoft’s privacy statement.
Our privacy statement is located at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=824704.
You can learn more about data collection and use in the help documentation and
our privacy statement. Your use of the software operates as your consent to
these practices.
b. Processing of Personal Data. To the extent Microsoft is a processor or subprocessor
of personal data in connection with the software, Microsoft makes the commitments
in the European Union General Data Protection Regulation Terms of the Online
Services Terms to all customers effective May 25, 2018, at https://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9840733.
5. UPDATES. The software may periodically check for updates and download and
install them for you. You may obtain updates only from Microsoft or authorized
sources. Microsoft may need to update your system to provide you with updates.
You agree to receive these automatic updates without any additional notice.
Updates may not include or support all existing software features, services,
or peripheral devices.
6. FEEDBACK. If you give feedback about the software to Microsoft, you give
to Microsoft, without charge, the right to use, share and commercialize your
feedback in any way and for any purpose. You will not give feedback that is
subject to a license that requires Microsoft to license its software or documentation
to third parties because we include your feedback in them. These rights survive
this agreement.
7. 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 example, if Microsoft technically limits
or disables extensibility for the software, you may not extend the software
by, among other things, loading or injecting into the software any non-Microsoft
add-ins, macros, or packages; modifying the software registry settings; or adding
features or functionality equivalent to that found in other Visual Studio products.
You may not:
* work around any technical limitations in the software;
* reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the software, or otherwise attempt
to derive the source code for the software, except and 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;
* host, share, publish, rent or lease the software; or
* provide the software as a stand-alone or integrated offering or combine it
with any of your applications for others to use.
8. SUPPORT SERVICES. Because the software is “as is,” we may not provide
support services for it.
9. 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.
10. EXPORT RESTRICTIONS. You must comply with all domestic and international
export laws and 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).
11. APPLICABLE LAW. If you acquired the software in the United States, Washington
State 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.
12. 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 the 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.
13. LEGAL EFFECT. This agreement describes certain legal rights. You may have
other rights under the laws of your country. You may also have rights with respect
to the party from whom you acquired the software. This agreement does not change
your rights under the laws of your country if the laws of your country do not
permit it to do so.
14. 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.
15. 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 programs; 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.
Please note: As the software is distributed in Quebec, Canada, some of the clauses
in this agreement are provided below in French.
Remarque : Ce logiciel étant distribué au Québec, Canada, certaines des clauses
dans ce contrat sont fournies ci-dessous en français.
EXONÉRATION DE GARANTIE. Le logiciel visé par une licence est offert « tel
quel ». Toute utilisation de ce logiciel est à votre seule risque et péril.
Microsoft n’accorde aucune autre garantie expresse. Vous pouvez bénéficier
de droits additionnels en vertu du droit local sur la protection des consommateurs,
que ce contrat ne peut modifier. La ou elles sont permises par le droit locale,
les garanties implicites de qualité marchande, d’adéquation à un usage
particulier et d’absence de contrefaçon sont exclues.
LIMITATION DES DOMMAGES-INTÉRÊTS ET EXCLUSION DE RESPONSABILITÉ POUR LES
DOMMAGES. Vous pouvez obtenir de Microsoft et de ses fournisseurs une indemnisation
en cas de dommages directs uniquement à hauteur de 5,00 $ US. Vous ne pouvez
prétendre à aucune indemnisation pour les autres dommages, y compris les dommages
spéciaux, indirects ou accessoires et pertes de bénéfices.
Cette limitation concerne :
* tout ce qui est relié au logiciel, aux services ou au contenu (y compris
le code) figurant sur des sites Internet tiers ou dans des programmes tiers
; et
* les réclamations au titre de violation de contrat ou de garantie, ou au titre
de responsabilité stricte, de négligence ou d’une autre faute dans la limite
autorisée par la loi en vigueur.
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.
