Lokalise Developer Program Agreement
Lokalise is proud to have many developers integrating with our platform and services. Lokalise’s Developer Program (the “Developer Program”) helps us collaborate with the developer community. This collaboration is governed by these terms (“Agreement”).
This Agreement is a legal agreement between you (“you”) and Lokalise, Inc. (“Lokalise ”, “we”, or “us”). Be sure to read this Agreement carefully - it governs your contribution to the Developer Program. By participating in the Developer Program in any way you agree to be bound by all the terms of this Agreement. IF YOU’RE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE LEGAL AUTHORITY TO BIND THE ENTITY TO THIS AGREEMENT, IN WHICH CASE "YOU" WILL MEAN THE ENTITY YOU REPRESENT. IF YOU DON’T HAVE SUCH AUTHORITY, OR IF YOU DON’T AGREE WITH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU MUST SELECT THE "CANCEL" BUTTON AND YOU MAY NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE DEVELOPER PROGRAM. IF YOU’RE A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT THAT THE PERSON CLICKING “I AGREE” HAS THE AUTHORITY TO BIND A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY TO THIS AGREEMENT.
1. LOKALISE TERMS OF USE WILL APPLY
By participating in the Developer Program you are also agreeing to be bound by the Lokalise’s Terms of Service (the “TOS”). In the event of a direct conflict between this Agreement and the TOS, this Agreement will take precedence; otherwise, both agreements will apply to you concurrently.
2. DEVELOPER PROGRAM TERMS
We have a set of requirements for our Developers Security guidelines (lokalise.com) (the “Developer Program Requirements”). As you might expect, the Developer Program Requirements will change from time to time. These changes will apply to you as a participant in the Developer Program, so we encourage you to periodically review the Developer Program Requirements to keep apprised of any changes. For a variety of reasons, we might need to change, suspend, or discontinue the Developer Program, or some of the benefits we offer. You agree that we can take those actions without liability to you.
3. API LICENSE TERMS
So long as you remain compliant with the TOS, this Agreement, and the Developer Program Terms, we grant you a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable license during the term of this Agreement to access and use our API solely for the purpose of developing, demonstrating, testing and supporting interoperability and integrations between your products and services and our products and services.
You shall not or permit others to – modify, publish, sell, lease, license, distribute, or sublicense our API; decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive source code from our API; reproduce, modify or create derivative works from our API; use our API to provide service bureau, application hosting, or processing services to third parties; incorporate or otherwise combine or integrate our API with any of your products or services; or use our API to engage in, support, or enable any kind of illegal activity.
We reserve the right at any time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, your access to the API (or any part of it) with or without notice. It’s your sole responsibility to ensure that your use of the API is compatible with the then-current API. Other than the rights we expressly give you in this Agreement or the TOS, we do not grant you any rights or licenses to our API, or to any other Lokalise products or services.
4. YOUR PRODUCTS, SERVICES, AND INTEGRATIONS
Your products, services, and integrations (collectively, your “Products”) are your responsibility. You are solely responsible for developing, operating, and maintaining all aspects of your Products; ensuring that all materials used with or in your Products are legal in all the jurisdictions where your Products are used, and do not promote illegal activities; obtaining any rights or licenses necessary to use and/or distribute any third-party software that you use, include, integrate, or distribute with your Products; and providing your end user customers with the same high-quality technical support for your Products when they operate in conjunction with our API or any other of our products and services as you do when they operate on their own.
5. MARKETING AND PUBLICITY
Marketing your Products with Lokalise is valuable to both of us.
You agree that you would not make any representations, warranties, guarantees or endorsements to anyone on behalf of Lokalise (including but not limited to any Lokalise products or services). Unless agreed by Lokalise in writing, you must not imply or state that we have developed, endorsed, reviewed or otherwise approved any of your Products.
If you would like to promote or publicize any of our products or services in connection with your Products, you will need to obtained our permission and make sure that you abide by the terms of this Agreement, the Developer Program Terms, the TOS, our brand guidelines available at Symbol and logotype - Guidelines - Guidelines (frontify.com) and any other applicable Lokalise policies.

6. CONFIDENTIALITY; PRE-RELEASE MATERIALS
As a registered developer in the Developer Program, you may get access to special information not available to the public. Due to the sensitive nature of this information, it is important for us to make sure that you keep that information secret.
You agree that any non-public information we give you or that you may have access to as part of the Developer Program will be considered Lokalise’s confidential information (collectively, “Confidential Information”), regardless of whether it is marked or identified as such. You agree to only use such Confidential Information for your authorized purposes as a participant in the Developer Program (the “Purpose”), and not for any other purpose. You should take reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use, disclosure, publication, or dissemination of our Confidential Information. You promise not to disclose, publish, or disseminate any Confidential Information to any third-party other than your employees and contractors, and then only to the extent that: (i) they need to know the Confidential Information for the Purpose; (ii) you make them aware of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information; (iii) you remain responsible for the acts and omissions of such employees and contractors; and (iv) we do not otherwise prohibit or restrict such disclosure.
You understand that unauthorized disclosure or use of our Confidential Information could cause us irreparable harm and significant injury that may be difficult to quantify. Accordingly, you agree that we will have the right to seek immediate injunctive relief to make sure you comply with this Agreement, in addition to any other rights and remedies we may have. If you are required by law, regulation or a valid, binding order of a court of competent jurisdiction to disclose our Confidential Information, you may do so, but only if you notify us before you do, and do your best to limit such disclosure and to seek confidential, protective treatment of such information.
The obligations in this Section 6 would not apply to information that you can prove: (i) was generally available to the public before we disclosed it to you; (ii) became generally available to the public after we disclosed it to you, through no action or inaction on your part, or on the part of your employees or contractors; (iii) you knew about it before we disclosed it to you; (iv) was disclosed to you by a third-party, who did not have any confidentiality obligations with respect to it; (v) you independently developed without breach of any confidentiality obligation with us or any third-party; or (vi) we gave you permission to disclose, in writing signed by one of our authorized representatives.
If we give you any pre-release software or related documentation or materials, which may include videos or other forms of content (“Pre-release Materials”), then subject to your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the TOS, we hereby grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right and license to use the Pre-release Materials solely to support your testing and/or development of products or services that are designed to operate in combination with the systems or Developer Programs for which the Pre-release Materials are designed. If the Pre-release Materials are accompanied by a separate license agreement, you agree that the separate license agreement (in addition to any more restrictive provisions contained in this Agreement or the TOS) will apply. You agree not to decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, or otherwise reduce the Pre-release Materials to a human-perceivable form, and you promise not to modify, network, rent, lease, transmit, sell, or loan the Pre-release Materials, in whole or in part. You understand that we are under no obligation to provide any Pre-release Materials to you, to provide you with updates, enhancements, or corrections to the Pre-release Materials, or to notify you of changes we make to our products and services, now or in the future.

The rights and obligations in Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 9 through 21 of this Agreement will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

8. REMOVAL BY LOKALISE
Lokalise does not undertake an obligation to monitor your Products or its content; however, Lokalise may immediately remove your Products from the App Library if Lokalise is notified by you or otherwise becomes aware and determines in its sole discretion that any portion of your Product or your Name (a) violates the intellectual property rights or any other rights of any third party; (b) violates any applicable law or is subject to an injunction; or (c) violates the terms of this Agreement, the TOS and/or Developer Program Requirements.

If you remove a Product from the App Library and an end user purchased such App within a year before the date of takedown, Lokalise is not responsible for refund(s) to the affected buyer of any amount paid by such end user during the year before the date of takedown for such affected listing.
