Common use of Prohibited Behavior Clause in Contracts

Prohibited Behavior. A Distributor App must not engage in illegal, misleading, deceptive, harmful, harassing, or otherwise annoying practices, or practices that tend to degrade the speed or overall quality of an End User’s experience (in each case, as determined by Google in its sole discretion). For example, a Distributor App may not do any of the following: (a) Intentionally create, facilitate the creation of, or exploit any security vulnerabilities in an End User’s computer. (b) Trigger pop-ups, pop-unders, exit windows, or similar obstructive or intrusive functionality that materially interferes with an End User’s web navigation or browsing or the use of his or her computer. (c) For a period of six months after an End User declines to take (or reverses) an action with respect to that Distributor App (including, without limitation, during installation, use, update or uninstallation of a Distributor App), re-prompt the End User to take, or try to deceive the End User into taking, such action. (d) Redirect browser traffic away from valid DNS entries. (e) Interfere with or bypass general browser messaging, functionality or performance, including without limitation general rendering of web pages (for example, by injection of html code into web pages viewed by the End User on a browser, where such html code is not provided specifically for the purpose of enhancing either (i) the quality of rendering or (ii) the speed of rendering of the page called by the End User). (f) Engage in an activity that violates any applicable law or regulation. (g) Contain any viruses, worms, trojan horses, or the like.
