To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Arc System Works from and against all claims, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) that arise directly or indirectly from your acts or omissions while using the Multimedia Program, that are unlawful or in breach of the terms of this License Agreement.

12. User-Generated Content Certain multimedia programs may allow you, through tools or third-party software provided by Arc System Works or its licensors ("Licensors"), to select a pseudonym, create an avatar, interact and communicate with other players, send, receive, and share messages, sounds, voice recordings, text, images, illustrations, photographs, documents, and the like, as well as create and customize games, levels, maps, scenarios, and other content ("UGC"). Such UGC may be used and shared as part of the multimedia programs. UGC may be creations based on your imagination ("Original UGC") or creations based on pre-existing creations ("Derived UGC"), and Arc System Works and its licensors may own the rights to such UGC.

If the Multimedia Program allows sharing on or integration with other third-party websites and/or online services (hereinafter referred to as "Third-Party Sites"), you agree to abide by the terms of use of those Third-Party Sites. Arc System Works is not responsible for the content of Third-Party Sites. Links are provided solely for convenience, and Arc System Works assumes no responsibility therefor. You are solely responsible for complying with the terms of use of Third-Party Sites and for determining whether those sites are appropriate for your profile. You agree to indemnify and hold Arc System Works harmless from any liability related to your violation of the terms of use of those sites, and from any direct or indirect damages resulting therefrom.

More generally, you are solely responsible for all use and sharing of UGC that you create, and you must comply with the terms of this License Agreement at all times when creating, using, or sharing UGC.

Therefore, Arc System Works will not be liable under any circumstances for any alteration in the quality of the multimedia program, any alteration or loss of UGC that occurs during the creation, use or sharing of UGC, or any infringement of intellectual property rights held by a third party, including, but not limited to, any damages caused by the alteration or loss of UGC that occurs during the creation, use or sharing of UGC.

You agree not to use the UGC outside the multimedia program in which it was generated, regardless of the means and purpose of extraction from the program. In general, it is prohibited to extract any component of a multimedia program from the latter.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you hereby grant to Arc System Works and Arc System Works' licensors a worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable, fully transferable, and in any way sublicensable, non-exclusive license for the duration of the rights to your UGC (whether Original UGC or Derivative UGC) and your contributions thereto (at the time created and/or shared), including, without limitation, the right to use, copy, modify, reproduce in whole or in part, adapt, evolve, translate, publish in any media, incorporate into other works, extract elements in whole or in part and/or add or remove elements, broadcast, display, publicly perform, distribute in any way, sell and market such UGC, as may be licensed, transferred, rented, publicly displayed, or publicly and worldwide performed in any media, formats, and forms now known or later devised, without prior notice or compensation to you.

This Operational License is granted for the purposes of distributing the Multimedia Program, creating derivative works of the Multimedia Program, sharing UGC within the framework of the Multimedia Program, and promoting the Multimedia Program and its derivative works.

If Arc System Works breaches this License Agreement and fails to correct the breach within one month of receiving formal notice that it will do so, the customer may terminate the applicable operating license.

You hereby agree that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you will not assert any moral rights, rights of publicity, rights of honor, or rights of attribution with respect to the use of your UGC by Arc System Works, Arc System Works' licensors, or other players. Separate terms of Arc System Works' licensors may apply to your UGC, and you will be notified of such terms as appropriate.

Notwithstanding the above, you acknowledge and agree that any Derivative UGC you create contains content, products, and materials owned by Arc System Works and/or our licensors. Such UGC is a derivative work based on pre-existing works in which Arc System Works or Arc System Works' licensors hold the rights. Nothing in this License Agreement or any other document governing this contractual relationship grants you any rights (including intellectual property rights) to pre-existing works used to create the Derivative UGC, and these rights remain the property of Arc System Works and/or Arc System Works' licensors. Accordingly, UGC based on pre-existing works may not be used without the express permission of Arc System Works and/or Arc System Works' licensors.

13. Code of Conduct Arc System Works is not required to exercise any control or evaluation over UGC. Therefore, you declare and agree that you are solely responsible for any UGC you create or generate, and that Arc System Works bears no responsibility whatsoever for the latter.
Any comments, opinions, or statements you express in UGC are made at your sole risk and do not in any way represent the views of Arc System Works. In particular, without limiting the scope of the preceding paragraph, Arc System Works assumes no responsibility for any comments, opinions, or statements expressed in UGC and excludes all liability in this regard to the extent of applicable law.
Additionally, you agree and undertake not to create or share UGC that contains, but is not limited to, the following:
