苹果App Store提交app审核时EULA(终端用户软件使用条款)的注意事项等政策解读
写在前面,今天是2014年10月14日,以下内容可能会随着时间的推进而失效,请注意时效性
当在App Store提交app审核的时候,苹果通常会要求开发者提供一个EULA,苹果默认提供了一个,地址: http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/appstore/dev/stdeula/
但是,当用户自己准备一个终端用户使用条款的时候,应该怎么写呢?
复制,黏贴?错了,不要随便复制黏贴别人的内容,第一,别人的内容不适用于你的场景业务,第二,可能会因为自定义的EULA被苹果拒。
那么,问题来了,如何提供一个在App Store销售的软件的许可协议呢?
其实苹果为这个问题提供了解释和规定,但是大多数开发者并没有在意,网址 http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/appstore/dev/minterms/
以下内容是我用自动翻译的软件翻译的中英文对照版本(稍微手动修正了部分翻译,凑合看吧)
Instructions for Minimum Terms of Developer’s
指导开发人员的最低条件
End-User License Agreement
