5. Third-Party Software or Services
The Licensed Software may use or include third-party software or services (the "Third-Party Services") provided by third parties for your convenience. Such Third-Party Services are used under valid authorization from the third party.
Because the Third-Party Services are provided by third parties, you must separately agree to any terms required by those third parties and assume any associated risks. We do not grant you any rights to use those Third-Party Services under this Agreement, nor do we make any guarantees regarding them. We are not responsible for customer support for such Third-Party Services; if you need support you should contact the relevant third party directly.

If you do not wish third parties to obtain such information, you should stop using the relevant Third-Party Service and we will cease transmitting your information to that third party.
You agree that if a third party notifies us that you have breached the third party’s terms of use for a Third-Party Service and requests that we take action, the suspension or termination of that Third-Party Service may affect your continued use of the Licensed Software, and we may suspend or terminate your license or take other measures as appropriate.

Your ability to use the Licensed Software may depend on services provided by our affiliates. If you breach any terms with us or our affiliates and an affiliate terminates its services to you, this may affect your use of the Licensed Software and we may terminate your license.
To maintain platform order and protect consumers, if you give any form of warranty or promise to us or our affiliates and an affiliate confirms you have breached that warranty and notifies us, we may act in accordance with the terms of that warranty or agreement and take measures such as suspending or terminating your license.
If you breach this Agreement or other agreements with us, we may notify our affiliates and request that they take measures affecting your rights, including suspending or terminating services to you and publicly disclosing your breach on their respective platforms.
The Licensed Software is obtained by you via a distribution platform; you must comply with any usage terms and restrictions imposed by that platform, the system platform, or terminal manufacturer. If such third parties require us to take action due to your breach, we may terminate your license at their request.
Upon termination of this license, you shall cease all use of the Licensed Software and destroy all copies in your possession.
