(collectively, the "Pico Store Purposes");

  1. delivery of your app to end users; end user service and support

    1. You agree and acknowledge that once your app is listed on the Pico Store, any user of our services (each an "End User") may purchase, download and install your app through the Pico Store according to the Pico Terms of Service or other Pico terms we may specify from time to time in connection therewith. Where an End User makes an order to purchase (regardless whether the price is zero) or download the app, you agree and acknowledge that:

      1. each such order constitutes an offer by the End User to us;

      2. Pico grants each End User a non-exclusive and non-sublicensable right and license to download, use and exploit the app for non-commercial and personal use via the Pico Store, provided that once the app is downloaded, End Users can use the app in any jurisdiction in the licensed territory (to the extent that such app is made available in such jurisdiction and such use is not prohibited or restricted by us) and can continue to use the app following the expiry or termination of the Term; and

      3. we shall not be responsible for the failure of any End User to comply with the instructions of any user, technical, safety, or other manuals accompanying the app as prescribed by you, and we shall have no liability in connection with the End User's acts and omissions in using the app.

    3. You shall be solely responsible for providing End Users with customer, warranty, maintenance, technical, or support services in connection with End Users' use of your app.

    4. You shall be solely responsible for resolving any inquiries and complaints arising from End Users' use of your app.

      1. we shall not be liable to you or any other person for any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any of your failure to perform your obligations to End Users as required under applicable laws, or claims that your app or End User's use of your app infringes intellectual property or other rights. In the event of any such claim, you, not Pico, shall be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such claim. To avoid doubt, Pico shall have no responsibility whatsoever for addressing any such claims relating to your app, including without limitation: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that your app fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and/or (iii) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation; and

    2. Without prejudice to other rights available to us hereunder, we shall be entitled to collect and receive during the Term of this Agreement all payments made by End Users.

      1. we are not responsible for the Third Party Element, and the fullest extent of our obligation in connection with any such Third Party Element is to only facilitate the making available of such Third Party Element (or part thereof) to you on a pass-through basis and "as received" by us. We have no control over and are not responsible for any Third Party Provider's performance or non-performance of any obligation in connection with any Third Party Element or arising in any other way;

      2. Third Party Element is the sole responsibility of the person that makes it available, and we are not responsible for it, and we neither have control over the selection thereof, nor do we routinely monitor it. Any use by you of any Third Party Element on or through the Developer Platform and/or the Pico Store is entirely at your own risk. Third Party Elements may have their own terms and conditions, including privacy policies, over which we have no control and which will govern your rights and obligations with respect to the access and/or use thereof;

We do not endorse and are not responsible or liable for any content, advertising, products, services or materials on or available through such externally available Third Party Elements.

    2. For example, we may rely on Third Party Providers to provide hosting services to you for the hosting and publication of your app on the Pico Store.
