MICROSOFT SOFTWARE LICENSE TERMS

MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO 2017 TOOLS, ADD-ONs and C++ REDISTRIBUTABLE

These license terms are an agreement between Microsoft Corporation (or based on where you live, one of its affiliates)
and you. They apply to the software named above. The terms also apply to any Microsoft services or updates for the
software, except to the extent those have different terms.
IF YOU COMPLY WITH THESE LICENSE TERMS, YOU HAVE THE RIGHTS BELOW.
1. INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.
You may install and use any number of copies of the software.
2. TERMS FOR SPECIFIC COMPONENTS.
a. Utilities. The software may contain some items on the Utilities List at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?
linkid=823097. You may copy and install these Utilities, if included with the software, onto devices to debug and
deploy your applications and databases you developed with the software. Please note that Utilities are designed
for temporary use, that Microsoft may not be able to patch or update Utilities separately from the rest of the
software, and that some Utilities by their nature may make it possible for others to access devices on which the
Utilities are installed. As a result, you should delete all Utilities you have installed after you finish debugging or
deploying your applications and databases. Microsoft is not responsible for any third party use or access of
Utilities you install on any device.
b. Microsoft Platforms. The software may include components from Microsoft Windows; Microsoft Windows
Server; Microsoft SQL Server; Microsoft Exchange; Microsoft Office; and Microsoft SharePoint. These components
are governed by separate agreements and their own product support policies, as described in the Microsoft
“Licenses” folder accompanying the software, except that, if license terms for those components are also included
in the associated installation directory, those license terms control.
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.
Even if such components are governed by other agreements, the disclaimers and the limitations on and
exclusions of damages below also apply.
The software may also include components licensed under open source licenses with source code availability obligations.
Copies of those licenses, if applicable, are included in the ThirdPartyNotices file(s). You may obtain this source code from
us, if and as required under the relevant open source licenses, as set forth in the ThirdPartyNotices file(s). You may also
find a copy of the source code available at https://thirdpartysource.microsoft.com/.
3. DATA. 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 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 and you
should provide a copy of Microsoft’s privacy statement to your users. The Microsoft privacy statement is located here
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.
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. 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 only to the extent required by third party licensing terms governing the use of certain open
source components that may be included in 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
 share, publish, rent or lease the software, or provide the software as a stand-alone hosted as solution for others
to use, or transfer the software or this agreement to any third party.
5. 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 www.microsoft.com/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.
