Conditions of Use for Audi Exclusive Fonts

Audi Exclusive Fonts software (hereinafter referred to as „Software“) shall be used by the user in accordance with the following Conditions of Use. AUDI AG is entitled to update the Conditions of Use at regular intervals. Here, update means the updated Conditions of Use which shall be applicable for all users. The user is thus obliged to gather information about the current Conditions of Use at regular intervals. Unless explicitly otherwise agreed in writing, or unless otherwise stipulated by law, downloading the Software constitutes agreement with the binding nature of these Conditions of Use. Any regulations differing from these Conditions of Use shall not be applicable. The user is advised to carefully read these Conditions of Use before issuing his consent.

Rights of use

  1. AUDI AG grants the user the non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sub-licensable right to use the Software. The contractual use includes the installation, loading, displaying and running of the installed Software. The right to use the Software is granted free of charge.
  2. The user is only entitled to use the Software for work destined for AUDI AG. Use for any other purpose is unlicensed. Making the Software accessible to third parties (including as part of or as a lower order element of another product, e.g. electronic documents) is not permissible. Here, third parties means natural persons, corporate bodies or institutions outside AUDI AG and its service provides.
  3. The user shall only be entitled to duplicate, edit or decompile the Software in order to make it interoperable with other programs or to rectify faults in the Software, providing the necessary information was not provided to the user upon request by either the manufacturer of the Software or by AUDI AG. In such cases, the user shall notify AUDI AG in writing, detailing which parts of the Software he intends to decompile.
  4. Moreover, the user is not entitled to modify, translate, reverse-engineer or disassemble the Software, to sell, rent or lease the Software or to sub-license the Software in any other way, or to commercially reproduce the Software or make it accessible. Here the Software includes any work derived from it.
  5. In the event of the user violating the above regulations, all rights of use granted shall immediately be invalidated and shall automatically be returned to AUDI AG. In such cases, the user shall immediately and fully end all work involving use of the Software, immediately delete all copies of the Software installed on his systems and, if applicable, either delete any safety backup copies or hand these over to AUDI AG.

  2. To the extent that the user makes the Software data accessible to his staff or agents, he shall ensure that these persons are instructed with respect to contents and stipulations of these Conditions of Use for the software and shall oblige his staff and agents to comply with them.

Rights to the Software

The Software which is subject of contract is protected by copyright and is the intellectual property of AUDI AG. All rights emanating from copyright law shall reside with AUDI AG.

Warranty and liability

  1. The right to use this Software is granted free of charge to the user. Sales law and other warranty laws are therefore not applicable. The user accepts the Software in the form in which it is presently available. The user thus has no warranty rights whatsoever against AUDI AG.
