Provide copies of The Game to others.
Use of Q-Games’ copyrighted material for commercial purposes.
Attempting to make a profit from Q-Games copyrighted material.
Allow others to access Q-Games copyrighted materials in an unauthorized or improper manner.

This license is for your personal use only, and you may not distribute The Game (or any part of it) to others. This also means that you may not sell or rent The Game or make it accessible to others, nor may you transfer or resell the license key. This is important to help us prevent piracy and fraud and to protect The Game.

You are free to do whatever you wish with game screenshots and videos, within a reasonable scope. Here “reasonable scope” means that the use is not for commercial purposes, or is not an act that is unlawful or otherwise harmful to the rights hold by Q-Games.

For example, videos that are posted as they are imported, reproductions of videos posted by others, or videos that are used primarily for the purpose of viewing clip art, movies, music, etc. used in our copyrighted materials are not considered within a reasonable scope.

However, if you upload videos of games to video-sharing and streaming sites, you may place advertisements on such videos.

An important principle regarding the use of copyrighted material that belongs to Q-Games is that you may not use copyrighted material that belongs to Q-Games for commercial purposes unless Q-Games explicitly states that this is not a problem.

Please note that if (and only if) you are using or accessinG The Game from the European Union, the Agreement on Exclusive Jurisdiction does not apply. Also, if (and only if) you are using or accessing The Game from the United States , the arbitration provisions at the end of this EULA will apply.

Release
Q-Games may terminate this EULA, if necessary, if you breach any of the provisions set forth in this EULA. You may terminate this EULA at any time by simply uninstalling The Game from your device. Q-Games may also terminate this EULA upon termination of service of the platform used to provide The Game or for any other reason.

Upon termination or expiration of this EULA, you lose all rights to The Game granted under this license. You will, of course, continue to have rights to anything you create using The Game. The sections entitled The Game and Other Rights, Liability, Governing Law and Dispute Resolution, General Terms, and Arbitration will continue to apply after the termination or expiration of this EULA.

General Terms
Your local laws may give you rights that cannot be modified by this EULA. In that case, this EULA will apply to the extent permitted by such law. Nothing in this license limits our liability for death or personal injury resulting from our negligence or misrepresentation.

Q-Games may change this EULA at any time if Q-Games has reason to do so, such as if there is a change in The Game, initiatives, or legal obligations. If Q-Games makes any changes to this EULA, Q-Games will notify you of such changes at least 30 days in advance at https://www.q-games.com/pixeljunk-scrappers-deluxe-eula. Your continued use of The Game constitutes your agreement to all such changes to this EULA.

If you provide us with a suggestion for either the Q-Games website or The Game, the suggestion shall be made without charge, and Q-Games are under no obligation to accept or consider such suggestion. In other words, Q-Games may use or not use your suggestions in any way Q-Games wish, and Q-Games will not pay you for such suggestions. If you have a proposal that Q-Games believe Q-Games are prepared to pay you for, please do not submit your proposal until you have first notified us that you expect to receive compensation and Q-Games have asked you in writing to submit such proposal.

Arbitration
The provisions of this paragraph apply only if you are using or accessing The Game from the United States.

Most of your concerns can be resolved by using our support site at https://www.q-games.com/en/contact/. If Q-Games is unable to resolve your concerns and there are unresolved disputes between you and us, please refer to this section. It explains how to resolve disputes that both parties agree upon.

a. Scope of Arbitration Obligation

You and Q-Games agree to resolve all disputes and claims arising between the parties in binding, individual arbitration. This provision shall include and apply to any claim brought on behalf of the other party, whether the claim is based on contract, tort, statute, fraud, unfair competition, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory.

However, this paragraph does not apply to the following types of claims or disputes. You or Q-Games may bring such claims or disputes before a court of competent jurisdiction. However, this Section does not apply to the following types of claims or disputes that you or Q-Games may bring in a court of competent jurisdiction: (i) claims relating to intellectual property infringement, misappropriation, etc. (including claims for injunctive relief); and (ii) claims relating to or arising from alleged misappropriation, privacy, or theft.

If any federal, state, or local government agency seeks relief from Q-Games on your behalf under any provision of law, you may bring a dispute before such agency without regard to the provisions of this section.

Arbitration is not conducted before a judge or jury, but before a single neutral arbitrator. Formality is less important in arbitration than in court proceedings. The scope of discovery in arbitration is more limited than in court proceedings. Different rules apply to arbitration than to court proceedings, and court review is very limited in scope. The arbitrator will issue a written award and, if requested by either party, will provide a statement of reasons for the award. You and Q-Games waive, and you agree to waive, any right to bring an action in court and to have a trial before a judge or jury.

b. First attempt to resolve disputes in an informal manner

You and Q-Games agree to make reasonable and good faith efforts to resolve any dispute informally before initiating arbitration. A party seeking arbitration shall send a written notice to the other party setting forth the nature of the claim or dispute, its basis, and the relief sought. If you and Q-Games are unable to agree on a resolution of the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you or Q-Games may commence arbitration. Written notice to us must be mailed to Attention: Notice of Arbitration, Yoshichu Bldg. 5F, 525 Wataya-cho, Takakura Nishiiru, Oike, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture

c. Arbitration Rules and Fees

To the fullest extent permitted by the laws of your country, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (or, if the Consumer Arbitration Rules do not apply, the Commercial Arbitration Rules) of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) to which the agreement under this EULA applies. These rules are available at http://www.adr.org. The arbitrator is bound by the provisions of this EULA.

The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA. The arbitration may be conducted either on the basis of documents submitted, by telephone, or in person in the country where you are located or at another mutually agreed upon location.

If your claim is for $10,000 or less, Q-Games agrees to promptly reimburse you for your share of AAA’s arbitration costs, including your arbitration filing fee and the arbitrator’s fee. Q-Games will not reimburse you for the costs of the arbitration, unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is baseless or that your claim was filed for the purpose of creating a nuisance. Q-Games agrees that Q-Games will not charge you attorneys’ fees or costs unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is baseless or that your claim is filed for the purpose of vexatious conduct. If your claim exceeds $10,000 and the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules do not apply, the AAA’s arbitration costs, including arbitrator’s fees, shall be shared between you and Q-Games in accordance with the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules.

d. Limitation to binding individual arbitration

You and Q-Games agree not to bring or participate in any class action, representative action, citizen representative action, whistleblower action, or class, collective, or representative arbitration, even if the AAA rules permit. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking arbitration and only to the extent of that party’s individual claim. You and Q-Games further agree that no claim for joinder of any action or arbitration with any other action or arbitration may be made unless all parties to this EULA and all parties to the other action or arbitration consent thereto.

e. In the event that any part of this section is found to be illegal or unenforceable
If any provision of this section is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions (together with any arbitration award rendered prior to the institution of court proceedings) shall remain in effect. However, if partial illegality or unenforceability makes class, collective, or representative arbitration possible, all provisions of this section shall be deemed unenforceable and the claim or dispute shall be resolved in court.

In case of discrepancies, the Japanese source text shall prevail.
