By installing, accessing, or using the Software, you agree to the terms of this EULA.
This EULA applies in addition to the Terms of Service of the Epic Games Store. In the event of any conflict, the Terms of Service of the Epic Games Store shall prevail with respect to the use of the platform and the acquisition of the Software, while this EULA governs the use of the software PALGRAP.
The Licensor may amend this EULA with effect for the future. The version applicable at the time of contract conclusion or at the next update shall apply, as made available at https://www.palgrap.com/endbenutzer-lizenzvereinbarung-eula/ .

(2) Any distribution, reproduction, decompilation, disassembly, reverse engineering, or other attempts to determine the source code of the Software are prohibited, unless expressly permitted by mandatory statutory provisions.
(3) The license does not include any entitlement to future updates, extensions, or support services, unless expressly and separately agreed.
2. Ownership Rights
(1) The Software is protected by copyright. All rights, in particular copyrights and other intellectual property rights in the Software, remain with the Licensor.
(2) The Software has been developed using the Unreal Engine. All rights in the Unreal Engine remain exclusively with Epic Games, Inc.; no rights in the Unreal Engine are transferred to the Licensee.
(3) By acquiring the Software, the Licensee does not obtain ownership of the Software but solely a license to use it in accordance with this EULA.
3. Restrictions on Use
(1) The Licensee is prohibited from manipulating, unlawfully modifying (“mods”), or copying the Software beyond its intended use.
(2) Fan content may only be created in accordance with the then-current “Epic Games Fan Content Policy” of Epic Games (available at https://www.epicgames.com/site/fan-art-policy or any subsequent official page of Epic Games).
(3) In particular, the Licensee is prohibited from:
– circumventing or impairing technical protection measures
– distributing, renting, leasing, or making the Software publicly accessible to third parties
– creating content that violates the “Epic Games Fan Content Policy”
– using the Software for unlawful, harmful, or abusive purposes
(4) Violations of these restrictions entitle the Licensor to terminate the license without notice pursuant to Section 12 and to block or prevent the use of the Software. Any statutory claims of the Licensor remain unaffected.
4. Purchase and Refund
The acquisition of the Software takes place exclusively through the Epic Games Store. Refunds, payment processing, and other contractual matters are governed solely by the respective terms and conditions of Epic Games. This EULA governs only the license to use the Software.
5. Use of Epic Online Services (EOS)
(1) The Software uses Epic Online Services (EOS), in particular for authentication. Active internet access and a valid Epic account are required for use.
(2) The availability of EOS and the related services is the responsibility of Epic Games. The Licensor assumes no responsibility or warranty in this regard.
(3) Restrictions, outages, or modifications of EOS services do not give rise to claims for damages, refunds, or other benefits against the Licensor, unless mandatory statutory rights of the Licensee provide otherwise.
6. Data Protection
(1) The processing of personal data by the Licensor is carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the applicable data protection laws, as set out in the Licensor’s Privacy Policy, available at https://www.palgrap.com/datenschutz/ .

The scope and purposes of processing by Epic Games are determined by its privacy notices.
(3) The Software generally processes personal data locally. Transmission to third parties occurs only insofar as this is necessary for authentication or the use of EOS, or where a statutory obligation exists. Any further disclosure of personal data by the Licensor does not take place.
