“Confidential Information” means any non-public information the Tester accesses or receives in connection with the beta, including but not limited to: the game build and its files, gameplay, features, story, characters, art, audio, mechanics, screenshots, video, bugs, unreleased plans, and any communications from the Developer marked or reasonably understood to be confidential.
3. Tester Obligations
The Tester agrees to:
- Keep all Confidential Information strictly confidential.
- Not share, stream, record, screenshot, post, publish, or otherwise disclose any part of the beta to any third party or on any public platform (including social media, Discord, YouTube, Twitch, or forums) without the Developer’s prior written permission.
- Not copy, distribute, resell, reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code or assets from the beta build.
- Use the beta only for the Purpose and only on devices the Tester controls.
- Not use the Confidential Information for any competing product or for the Tester’s own commercial benefit.
4. Exclusions
