| maps, images and other data through the Bing Maps (or successor branded) |
| application programming interface (the “Bing Maps API”) to create reports |
| displaying data on top of maps, aerial and hybrid imagery. If these features |
| are included, you may use these features to create and view dynamic or static |
| documents only in conjunction with and through methods and means of access |
| integrated in the software. You may not otherwise copy, store, archive, or |
| create a database of the entity information including business names, addresses |

| to send notifications that are mission critical or otherwise could affect |
| matters of life or death, including without limitation critical notifications |
| related to a medical device or condition. MICROSOFT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY |
| WARRANTIES THAT THE USE OF THE MICROSOFT PUSH NOTIFICATION SERVICE OR DELIVERY |
| OF MICROSOFT PUSH NOTIFICATION SERVICE NOTIFICATIONS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, |
| ERROR FREE, OR OTHERWISE GUARANTEED TO OCCUR ON A REAL-TIME BASIS. |
| v. Speech namespace API. Using speech recognition functionality via the Speech |
| namespace APIs in a program requires the support of a speech recognition |
| service. The service may require network connectivity at the time of |
| recognition (e.g., when using a predefined grammar). In addition, the service |
| may also collect speech-related data in order to provide and improve the |
| service. The speech-related data may include, for example, information related |
| to grammar size and string phrases in a grammar. |
| vi. Also, in order for a user to use speech recognition on the phone they |
| must first accept certain terms of use. The terms of use notify the user that |
| data related to their use of the speech recognition service will be collected |
| and used to provide and improve the service. If a user does not accept the |
| terms of use and speech recognition is attempted by the application, the |
| operation will not work and an error will be returned to the application. |
| vii. API Use. We may monitor and collect data related to a program’s use of |
| APIs in order to provide, improve and personalize Microsoft products and |
| services. End user information collected by Microsoft‘s monitoring and data |
| collection related to your program’s use of APIs is subject to the Microsoft |
| Consumer Privacy Statement. |

| applicable local laws and regulations when using the device ID access component |
| or the rest of the software. |
| x. PlayReady Support. The software may include the Windows Emulator, which |
| contains Microsoft’s PlayReady content access technology. Content owners use |
| Microsoft PlayReady content access technology to protect their intellectual |
| property, including copyrighted content. This software uses PlayReady |
| technology to access PlayReady-protected content and/or WMDRM-protected |
| content. Microsoft may decide to revoke the software’s ability to consume |
| PlayReady-protected content for reasons including but not limited to (i) if a |
| breach or potential breach of PlayReady technology occurs, (ii) proactive |
| robustness enhancement, and (iii) if Content owners require the revocation |
| because the software fails to properly enforce restrictions on content usage. |
| Revocation should not affect unprotected content or content protected by other |
| content access technologies. Content owners may require you to upgrade |
| PlayReady to access their content. If you decline an upgrade, you will not be |
| able to access content that requires the upgrade and may not be able to install |
| other operating system updates or upgrades. |
| xi. Package Managers. The software may include package managers, like NuGet, |
| that give you the option to download other Microsoft and third party software |
| packages to use with your application. Those packages are under their own |
| licenses, and not this agreement. Microsoft does not distribute, license or |
| provide any warranties for any of the third party packages. |
| xii. Font Components. While the software is running, you may use its fonts to |
| display and print content. You may only embed fonts in content as permitted by |
| the embedding restrictions in the fonts; and temporarily download them to a |
| printer or other output device to help print content. |
| xiii. Notice about the H.264/AVD Visual Standard, and the VC-1 Video Standard. |
| This software may include H.264/MPEG-4 AVC and/or VD-1 decoding technology. |

| PERSONAL AND NON-COMMERCIAL ACTIVITY AND/OR WAS OBTAINED FROM A VIDEO PROVIDER |
| LICENSED TO PROVIDE SUCH VIDEO. NONE OF THE LICENSES EXTEND TO ANY OTHER |
| PRODUCT REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH PRODUCT IS INCLUDED WITH THIS SOFTWARE IN A |
| SINGLE ARTICLE. NO LICENSE IS GRANTED OR SHALL BE IMPLIED FOR ANY OTHER USE. |
| ADDITIONAL INFORMATION MAY BE OBTAINED FROM MPEG LA, L.L.C. SEE WWW.MPEGLA.COM. |
| d. For clarification purposes, this notice does not limit or inhibit the use of |
| the software for normal business uses that are personal to that business which |
| do not include (i) redistribution of the software to third parties, or (ii) |
| creation of content with the VIDEO STANDARDS compliant technologies for |
| distribution to third parties. |
| e. INTERNET-BASED SERVICES. Microsoft provides Internet-based services with the |
| software. It may change or cancel them at any time. |
| f. Consent for Internet-Based Services. The software features described below |
| and in the privacy statement at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=521839 |
| connect to Microsoft or service provider computer systems over the Internet. In |
| some cases, you will not receive a separate notice when they connect. In some |
| cases, you may switch off these features or not use them. By using these |
| features, you consent to the transmission of this information. Microsoft does |
| not use the information to identify or contact you. |
| i. Computer Information. The following features use Internet protocols, which |
| send to the appropriate systems computer information, such as your Internet |
| protocol address, the type of operating system, browser, and name and version |
| of the software you are using, and the language code of the device where you |
| installed the software. Microsoft uses this information to make the |
| Internet-based services available to you. |
| Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP). This software uses CEIP. CEIP |
| automatically sends Microsoft information about your hardware and how you use |
| the software. We do not use this information to identify or contact you. CEIP |
| will also periodically download a small file to your computer. This file helps |
| us collect information about problems that you have while using the software. |
| When available, new help information about the errors might also be |
| automatically downloaded. To learn more about CEIP and how to turn it off, see |
| http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=525878. |
| Digital Certificates. The software uses digital certificates. These digital |
| certificates confirm the identity of Internet users sending X.509 standard |
| encryption information. They also can be used to digitally sign files and |
| macros to verify the integrity and origin of the file contents. The software |
| retrieves certificates and updates certificate revocation lists using the |
| Internet, when available. |
| Error Reports. This software automatically sends error reports to Microsoft. |
| These reports include information about problems that occur in the software. |
| Sometimes reports contain information about other programs that interact with |
| the software. Reports might unintentionally contain personal information. For |
| example, a report that contains a snapshot of computer memory might include |
| your name. Part of a document you were working on could be included as well. |
| Microsoft does not use this information to identify or contact you. To learn |
| more about error reports, see http://oca.microsoft.com/en/dcp20.asp. |
| Windows Application Certification Kit. To ensure you have the latest |
| certification tests, when launched this software periodically checks a Windows |
| Application Certification Kit file on download.microsft.com to see if an update |
| is available. If an update is found, you are prompted and provided a link to |
| a web site where you can download the update. You may use the Windows |
| Application Certification Kit solely to test your programs before you submit |
| them for a potential Microsoft Windows Certification and for inclusion on the |
| Microsoft Windows Store. The results you receive are for informational purposes |
| only. Microsoft has no obligation to either (i) provide you with a Windows |
| Certification for your programs and/or ii) include your program in the |
| Microsoft Windows Store. |
| Microsoft Digital Rights Management for Silverlight. |
| If you use Silverlight to access content that has been protected with Microsoft |
| Digital Rights Management (DRM), in order to let you play the content, the |
| software may automatically |
| request media usage rights from a rights server on the Internet and |
| download and install available DRM Updates. |
| For more information about this feature, including instructions for turning the |
| Automatic Updates off, go to http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=147032. |
| 1. Web Content Features. Features in the software can retrieve related content |
| from Microsoft and provide it to you. To provide the content, these features |
| send to Microsoft the type of operating system, name and version of the |
| software you are using, type of browser and language code of the device where |
| you installed the software. Examples of these features are clip art, templates, |
| online training, online assistance, help and Appshelp. You may choose not to |
| use these web content features. |
| ii. Use of Information. We may use the computer information, error reports, and |
| CEIP information, to improve our software and services. We may also share it |
| with others, such as hardware and software vendors. They may use the |
| information to improve how their products run with Microsoft software. |
| iii. Misuse of Internet-based Services. You may not use these services in any |
| way that could harm them or impair anyone else’s use of them. You may not use |
| the services to try to gain unauthorized access to any service, data, account |
| or network by any means. |
