Airporio Licence Agreement — other businesses — v1
⚠️ DRAFT FOR REVIEW — NOT YET BINDING.
Airporio wrote this to describe, in plain English, what the software actually does and what each side would be agreeing to. It has not been reviewed by a lawyer. Anyone may read it — including a business deciding whether to apply — and nobody may yet accept it: the code refuses to present a draft for acceptance, so no acceptance can be recorded against this version.
Before this binds anyone a lawyer must review it, and every [TO CONFIRM] must be filled in: the contracting entity, governing law and courts, payment terms, notice periods, the liability cap and the notice addresses. Delete this banner when that is done.
Each kind of business has its own agreement. This one is the general form, for a business that is none of the others — a school, a clinic, a stadium, an event. Where it says Website, read the place we have agreed in writing that your people will play.
1. Who this is between
This agreement is between [TO CONFIRM: the Airporio legal entity, its registered number and address] ("Airporio", "we", "us") and the business named in the approved application ("you", "your", the "Licensee"). It applies from the day you accept it until it ends under section 12.
2. What the words mean
- Games — the games in the Airporio catalogue that we make available for licensing.
- Platform — the Airporio service that serves the Games, counts usage, and the back office you sign into at publishers.airporio.com.
- Website — an internet address you have registered in your back office, and its subdomains.
- Embed Code — the snippet we give you, containing your Embed Key, that shows a Game on a Website.
- Embed Key — the identifier in your Embed Code that tells us which licence a load belongs to. It is not a secret and not a password.
- Plan — what you pay for and what it includes, as shown in your back office.
- Term — the period your Plan covers, and any renewal of it.
- Your Users — the people who play the Games on your Websites.
3. What we grant you
While this agreement is in force and your Plan is paid, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to show the Games you have selected in your back office on your registered Websites, using our Embed Code.
Nothing else is granted. We keep ownership of the Games, the Platform and everything in them.
How the software behaves: serving is checked on every request, in order — the Embed Key exists and has not been rotated; the licence is approved and active (or cancelled but still inside the period already paid for); the Game is in your current selection; and the page framing it is one of your registered Websites.
4. What you may not do
You may not:
- copy, download, host, modify, decompile or repackage a Game, or serve it from anywhere other than the Platform;
- use the Embed Code on a site you have not registered, or give your Embed Key to anyone else;
- remove, hide or alter any Airporio name, notice or age rating shown with a Game;
- place the Games on a page whose content is adult, hateful, gambling-related, illegal or otherwise unsuitable for an all-ages service;
- sell access to the Games on their own, sublicense them, or present them as your own product;
- put advertising inside or over a Game frame, or use the Games to collect data about players beyond what your own website normally collects;
- interfere with the Platform, work around your Plan's limits, or inflate the usage we record.
How the software behaves: a Game is served from our own origin inside a sandboxed frame your page cannot reach into, under a policy your page cannot alter, so "no modification" is close to true by construction. Games that are not online multiplayer are served with no permission to contact any network host at all.
5. Where the Games may appear
The Games appear only on the Websites you register, and their subdomains. Registering a Website is your statement that you control it. Either side may remove a Website; if we remove one, we will tell you why.
How the software behaves: the browser is told, in our own response, that the Game may only be framed by your registered Websites, and it refuses anywhere else. We also look at which page framed it in order to record where a play happened — but a page can withhold that, so the contractual restriction in section 4 is what binds. The technical check makes accidental off-site use visible; it is not a security control.
6. Advertising and what your players see
Licensed embeds carry no advertising, no third-party analytics and no tracking pixels, and we do not charge Your Users for anything inside a Game. Every Game carries the age rating its publisher gave it, shown wherever the Game is.
7. What we will do
- Serve the Games with reasonable skill and care. [TO CONFIRM: whether any availability commitment is offered. None is promised in the product today.]
- Count honestly. We count loads, plays and time from real sessions, never inflated, and you see the same numbers we do in your back office.
- Support. You can raise a support request in your back office. [TO CONFIRM: response times, if any are offered.]
- Tell you about changes that affect how the Games appear on your Websites, including the withdrawal of a Game you have selected.
8. What you will do
- Keep the details in your back office accurate, including who at your business may sign in.
- Keep sign-in credentials safe, and tell us promptly if you believe someone else has them.
- Stay within your Plan's limits, and tell us when your usage is about to outgrow them.
- Make sure the pages the Games appear on comply with the law where Your Users are, including the rules on children's content and privacy that apply to you as the operator of that site.
- Pay on time.
9. Money
- You pay the fees for your Plan, as shown in your back office, for the Term.
- Fees exclude VAT and other taxes, which you pay if they apply.
- [TO CONFIRM: payment terms — in advance or in arrears, and the days allowed for an invoice.]
- If payment fails we may continue serving while we contact you, and may suspend the Games if it is not resolved. Suspension does not cancel what is already owed.
- We may change the price for a renewal Term by telling you at least [TO CONFIRM: notice period] beforehand. Prices do not change inside a Term you have already paid for.
10. Your players' data
Playing a Game on your Website needs no account and no personal data. We record that a Game loaded, on which of your Websites, whether it was played and for how long, and we count devices using a random identifier kept in the browser, which we store only in scrambled form and never share between licensees.
Our privacy policy at airporio.com/privacy describes this in full. You are responsible for what your own privacy notice says about your site. [TO CONFIRM: whether a data processing addendum is required, and in which jurisdictions.]
11. Your name and ours
You may say that you use Airporio and show the Airporio name for that purpose. We may name you and show your logo as a customer unless you tell us not to — an email is enough.
12. The catalogue changes, and ending this agreement
- The catalogue changes. We add Games, and occasionally a Game is withdrawn, for example when we lose the right to offer it. We will tell you, and it will stop appearing on your Websites. If a withdrawal materially reduces what you licensed, you may end this agreement under 12.4.
- You may end this agreement at any time, yourself, in your back office. The owner of your account presses "End this licence" and confirms. We record the date, tell you the exact day the Games stop, and stop serving on that day: the end of the period you have already paid for, or immediately if nothing has been paid yet. Nothing further is charged after that day.
- We may end this agreement on [TO CONFIRM: notice period] notice, or immediately if you break section 4, if payment is not made after we have asked, or if the way the Games are being used puts our players or other customers at risk.
- Either side may end it if the other breaks it seriously and does not put it right within 30 days of being told.
- When it ends you must remove the Embed Code from your sites, and we stop serving. Sections 13 to 18 survive.
How the software behaves: service_ends_at is the single date serving stops; it is shown to you before you confirm and on every screen afterwards, and the embed keeps working until it passes.
13. Suspension
We may suspend serving immediately if we reasonably believe the Games are being shown somewhere that breaks section 4, or that continuing would harm Your Users, our players or the Platform. We will tell you why and restore service as soon as the reason has gone. A suspension for a reason that turns out not to have existed extends your Term by the time lost.
How the software behaves: a suspension takes effect within about a minute, everywhere the Games are embedded, and visitors see a short notice rather than a broken frame.
14. What we promise, and what we do not
We promise that we have the right to grant this licence, and that we will provide the Platform with reasonable skill and care. Otherwise the Platform is provided as it is: we do not promise it will be uninterrupted or error-free, that it will suit a purpose you have in mind, or that any particular number of people will play.
15. If something goes wrong
[TO CONFIRM: the liability position. The usual shape: neither side excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything that cannot be excluded by law; neither side is liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for lost profits, revenue or data; and each side's total liability is capped at the fees paid in the twelve months before the claim.]
16. Confidentiality
Each side will keep the other's confidential information confidential and use it only for this agreement. This does not cover information that is already public, that the receiving side already had, or that the law requires to be disclosed.
17. Changes to this agreement
We may change this agreement for a renewal Term by telling you at least [TO CONFIRM: notice period] before it starts. If you do not accept a change you may let the Term run out.
How the software behaves: we record which version you accepted and when. That record is append-only — the database refuses to change or delete it — so a new agreement is a new version, never an edit of one somebody has already accepted.
18. The rest
- Transfer. You may not transfer this agreement without our written consent, which we will not unreasonably withhold. We may transfer it to a company that takes over our business.
- No partnership. Nothing here makes either side the other's agent or partner.
- Notices. Notices go to the contact address on your account, and to [TO CONFIRM: Airporio's notice address].
- Whole agreement. This agreement and your Plan are the whole of what has been agreed, and replace anything said beforehand.
- If part fails. If any part cannot be enforced, the rest still stands.
- Law and courts. [TO CONFIRM: governing law, and the courts that decide disputes.]
