End user licence agreement (“EULA”)

This End-User Licence Agreement (“EULA”) is a legally binding agreement between Abertay University (the “Licensor”) and you. This EULA is not an agreement between you and Sony Interactive Entertainment, Inc, Sony Interactive Entertainment America LLC or Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe Ltd (each of which are an “SIE Group Company”).

You must accept this EULA before you download, install and use the Game, as it sets out the basis upon which the Licensor licenses the Game for use.

Before you download the Game from the Licensor’s website or the platform of one of our appointed distribution partners, you will be asked to give your express agreement to the provisions of this EULA. By accepting the terms of this EULA, the Licensor grants the User a world-wide, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to download and access the Game, in accordance with the terms of this EULA, including, in particular, clause 4.

By agreeing to be bound by this EULA, you warrant to us that you are at least 12 years of age. Any individual below the age of 12 cannot enter into this EULA and is not therefore entitled to access the Game.

Privacy Policy: The Licensor and developer of this Game do not collect or store any User Data. The Licensor, however, does make use of the PlayStation®Store Distribution Platform which has its own Privacy Policy independent of this Game, which can be accessed at https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/legal/privacy-policy/.

WARNING: The light patterns in some video games may trigger epileptic seizures or blackouts in a very small number of individuals. If you have an epileptic condition, you should consult a medical professional before accessing the Game. If you experience dizziness, muscle twitching, changes to vision, disorientation, seizures, convulsions and/or any involuntary movements while operating the Game, you should immediately stop the Game and consult a medical professional as a matter of urgency.
