Mod Policy

This Mod Policy, the EULA and Code of Conduct outline the conditions under which you may use, create and make available Mods for use in Frontier’s games (including any DLC). This Mod Policy is incorporated into the EULA, by reference.

A “Mod” includes but is not limited to, modifications, customisations and/or upgrades to levels, characters, creatures, vehicles, buildings, rides, parks, blueprints and maps, saves, audio files and textures of a Frontier game.

Frontier may in our sole discretion provide access to modding tools and/or platforms for you to create and make available Mods (“Modding Tools”). Modding Tools and Mods may not be allowed on some games published by Frontier, for example where those games include IP licensed from a third party.

If Frontier does not provide Modding Tools (or to no longer provides such Modding Tools) for a Frontier game, then you are not permitted to create or make available Mods for that game.

This Mod Policy applies to all Mods created or used by you, including Mods made available through the Frontier Workshop, third party platforms such as Steam Workshop, or as incorporated into the Game.

1. You agree that any element of the Mod which represents, derives from, or is based upon the Game (for example characters, creatures, vehicles, buildings, rides, parks, blueprints and maps, settings, plot, art, design work, sounds and locations) shall be owned by Frontier, and you agree that all rights and interest in such Mod shall vest solely with Frontier.
2. To the maximum extent permitted by the applicable law, you waive and agree not to assert against Frontier or any of our partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, licensors or licensees, any moral or similar rights you may have in any of your Mods.
3. Subject to your compliance with the terms of this Mod Policy, the EULA and Code of Conduct, Frontier grants you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, revocable, limited licence to install, access and use the Modding Tools provided by Frontier to create Mods.
4. Any use of the Modding Tools and creation and making available of Mods, is for strictly non-commercial purposes only, and you may not accept any fees or donations for your creation and making available of any Mods.

5. If you create Mods:

   1. to the extent the Game permits other users to access and use your Mods, you also grant all other users of the Game the right to use, copy, modify, display, perform, create derivative works from, make available and otherwise communicate your Mods without further notice, attribution or compensation to you; and
   2. to the extent not owned by Frontier as outlined in paragraph 1 above, you grant to Frontier and our affiliates, licensees and licensors a worldwide, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable and perpetual right to use, rent, lend, sub-license, exploit for profit or gain, copy, reproduce, modify, publicly display, publicly perform, create derivative works from, adapt, distribute, make available, communicate to the public or otherwise exploit your Mods without further notice, attribution or compensation to you.

   For clarity, this licence shall include the right for Frontier to make available the Mods through other channels of distribution (for payment or otherwise), including incorporation of the Mod into the Game, any other Frontier games and/or marketing materials. This licence shall survive termination of the EULA.

6. Your Mods must not contain any material which:
   1. resembles, copies or uses any third party intellectual property rights, including but not limited to any logo, character and trade mark;
   2. unlawful or illegal;
   3. incorporates any assets from other games published by Frontier or any other third party;
   4. has any viruses, Trojan horses, worms, corrupted files, or any other similar software or program;
   5. is obscene, indecent, pornographic, offensive, defamatory, fraudulent or threatening; or
   6. causes or may cause Frontier, our affiliates, licensees or licensors to be brought into disrepute.

7. You represent and warrant that that you have the full legal right to use, create and make available your Mods and that each Mod:

   1. is your original work;
   2. does not infringe any third party´s intellectual property rights;
   3. does not breach a confidentiality or contractual restriction; and
   4. contains nothing defamatory, indecent or otherwise unlawful or which infringes the statutory or common law rights of any third party or any other rights.

   Frontier disclaims all liability to any Mod, and you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Frontier and our employees, affiliates, licensors, licensees, contractors and directors from any damages, losses, costs and expenses (including legal fees) arising directly or indirectly from any acts or omissions associated with the use of any Mod which you create or make available.

8. Modding Tools are provided subject to the EULA, including the Limited Warranty and Support. This means that we do not warrant or represent that any Mod is compatible with the Game or will function within the Game, or that any Mod will continue to function if the Game is updated. You assume all risk associated with using, copying, modifying, displaying, performing, uploading or downloading any Mod.
9. We reserve the right to suspend access to any Modding Tools made available to you by Frontier, or to terminate your licence for any Mods created or made available by you. Frontier is under no obligation to use, review or make available any Mods, and you acknowledge and agree that Frontier may restrict, edit, disable, remove or discontinue to make available your Mods or the Modding Tools for any reason and at any time, in Frontier’s sole discretion.
