For example, these single-copy license terms apply to you if you obtained the Apple Software preinstalled on Apple-branded hardware.

B. Mac App Store License. If you obtained a license for the Apple Software from the Mac App Store or through an automatic download, then subject to the terms and conditions of this License and as permitted by the Services and Content Usage Rules set forth in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions (https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/) (“Usage Rules”), you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license:

(i) to download, install, use and run for personal, non-commercial use, one (1) copy of the Apple Software directly on each Apple-branded computer running macOS Ventura, macOS Monterey, macOS Big Sur, macOS Catalina, macOS Mojave, or macOS High Sierra  (“Mac Computer”) that you own or control;

(ii) If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, to download, install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software for use either: (a) by a single individual on each of the Mac Computer(s) that you own or control, or (b) by multiple individuals on a single shared Mac Computer that you own or control. For example, a single employee may use the Apple Software on both the employee’s desktop Mac Computer and laptop Mac Computer, or multiple students may serially use the Apple Software on a single Mac Computer located at a resource center or library; and 

(iii) to install, use and run up to two (2) additional copies or instances of the Apple Software, or any prior macOS or OS X operating system software or subsequent release of the Apple Software, within virtual operating system environments on each Apple-branded computer you own or control that is already running the Apple Software, for purposes of: (a) software development; (b) testing during software development; (c) using macOS Server; or (d) personal, non-commercial use.

Except as expressly permitted in Section 3, the grant set forth in Section 2B(iii) above does not permit you to use the virtualized copies or instances of the Apple Software in connection with service bureau, time-sharing, terminal sharing or other similar types of services. Except as expressly permitted in this Section 2B, you may not use the Apple Software to run any Apple operating system software, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS or tvOS, in virtual operating system environments on Mac Computer(s).

C. Volume or Maintenance License. If you obtained the Apple Software under a volume or maintenance license program with Apple, the terms of your volume or maintenance license will determine the number of copies of the Apple Software you are permitted to download, install, use and run on Apple-branded computers you own or control.  Except as agreed to in writing by Apple, all other terms and conditions of this License shall apply to your use of the Apple Software obtained under a volume or maintenance license.

H. Content Caching Features.
1.  To the extent that Apple and/or its affiliates make particular software and/or content available for caching (e.g., applicable content from the Mac App Store) (“Apple Eligible Content”), certain features of the Apple Software (the “Content Caching Features”) may automatically download and locally cache such Apple Eligible Content on your Apple-branded computer that is running the Apple Software (for purposes of this Section, such Apple-branded computer is referred to as the “Caching Enabled Mac”).  By using the Content Caching Features of the Apple Software, you agree that Apple may download and cache such Apple Eligible Content on your Caching Enabled Mac.  You can turn off the Content Caching Features of the Apple Software at any time by going to Sharing under System Settings on your Caching Enabled Mac.

2.  The Content Caching Features of the Apple Software are for use only on a Caching Enabled Mac you own or control and solely for purposes of expediting the delivery of such Apple Eligible Content to authorized end users within your home, company or organization.  You understand that such users may need to separately authenticate with Apple prior to receiving the Apple Eligible Content and that the expedited delivery of Apple Eligible Content through the use of your Caching Enabled Mac will not modify the terms under which you or your end users receive such Apple Eligible Content. 

3.  You acknowledge and agree that all use of the Apple Eligible Content is subject to the applicable license terms that govern the type of Apple Eligible Content being cached.  These terms may include, but are not limited to, the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, the iCloud Terms and Conditions, the iTunes U Instructor Agreement, the iTunes U Software License Agreement, and/or the applicable licensing terms that accompanied the software being downloaded, unless the download was accompanied by its own separate license agreement in which case the latter would apply.  A list of Apple Software License Agreements (SLAs) may be found here: https://www.apple.com/legal/sla/.  You acknowledge and agree that the use of the Content Caching Features and storage of Apple Eligible Content on your Caching Enabled Mac does not transfer to you any rights beyond those granted to you in the applicable license terms for the Apple Eligible Content and shall not constitute a grant, waiver, or other limitation of any rights of Apple or any other copyright owners in any Apple Eligible Content.

4.  You are not authorized to deploy your Caching Enabled Mac with the Content Caching Features enabled on a network you do not own or control (or which you are not legally authorized to use for such purposes), or to permit access to such Apple Eligible Content from end users outside of your home, company or organization.  You agree to only use the Content Caching Features for your own personal, non-commercial use or for internal use within your company or organization, and only as expressly permitted herein.  You may not provide a service to third parties that integrates with or leverages services or information provided by the Content Caching Features or uses the Content Caching Features in any way.

5.  By enabling the Content Caching Features of the Apple Software, you agree that Apple may store, monitor, and secure the Apple Eligible Content on your Caching Enabled Mac, and may collect and use technical information about your Caching Enabled Mac and related networks, including but not limited to, hardware identifiers and IP addresses, for such purposes.  You agree not to disable, disrupt, hack, circumvent, or otherwise interfere with Apple’s verification, storage or authentication mechanisms, digital signing, digital rights management, or other security mechanisms implemented in or by the Apple Software, services, the Apple Eligible Content, or other Apple software or technology, or to enable others to do so.  

6.  Apple reserves the right to stop making Apple Eligible Content available for caching on your Caching Enabled Mac (e.g., some content that you may have previously cached may not be available for subsequent caching) and to remove any cached Apple Eligible Content from your Caching Enabled Macs at any time in its sole discretion, and Apple shall have no liability to you in such event.  You understand that such caching of Apple Eligible Content may not be available in all countries or regions.  You may remove the cached Apple Eligible Content and disable the Content Caching Features at any time.

I. Remote Desktop Connections.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, when remotely connecting from another computer or electronic device (each a “Device”) to an Apple-branded computer that is running the Apple Software (for purposes of this Section, such Apple-branded computer is referred to as the “Home Mac”), whether through the Screen Sharing feature or through any other means:

(i) only one (1) Device may remotely connect at any one time, whether directly or indirectly, to control the graphical desktop session of the Apple Software that is running and being displayed on the Home Mac; and

(ii) a reasonable number of Devices may remotely connect at the same time for the sole purpose of simultaneously observing the same graphical desktop session of the Apple Software that is running and being displayed on the Home Mac, as long as they do not control the Apple Software in any way; but

(iii) only one (1) Apple-branded Device may remotely connect at any one time, whether directly or indirectly, to control a separate graphical desktop session of the Apple Software that is different from the one running and being displayed on the Home Mac, and such connection may only be made through the Screen Sharing feature of the Apple Software.

Except as expressly permitted in this Section 2I or Section 3, or except as otherwise licensed by Apple, you agree not to use the Apple Software, or any of its functionality, in connection with service bureau, time-sharing, terminal sharing or other similar types of services, whether such services are being provided within your own organization or to third parties.

J. Other Use Restrictions.

————————————
Apple Pay Supplemental Terms and Conditions

These Apple Pay Supplemental Terms and Conditions (the “Supplemental Terms”) supplement the Software License Agreement for macOS (the “License”); both the terms of the License and these Supplemental Terms govern your use of the Apple Pay feature, which shall be deemed a “Service” under the License.  Capitalized terms used in these Supplemental Terms have the meanings set forth in the License.

1.     Overview and Use Restrictions

Apple Pay allows you to store virtual representations of credit, debit and prepaid cards, including Apple Card, that are supported by the Apple Pay feature (“Supported Cards”), use supported Macs to initiate or make payments within websites, and track orders and view receipts.  The Apple Pay features of the Apple Software may only be available in select regions, with select card issuers, payment networks, and merchants. Features may vary by region, issuer, and merchant.  Supported Cards may change from time to time.

Apple Pay is intended for your personal use and you may only provision your own Supported Cards.  If you are provisioning a supported corporate card, you represent that you are doing so with the authorization of your employer and you are authorized to bind your employer to these terms of use and all transactions effected by use of this feature.

You agree not to use Apple Pay for illegal or fraudulent purposes, or any other purposes that are prohibited by the License and these Supplemental Terms.  You further agree to use Apple Pay in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.  You agree not to interfere with or disrupt the Apple Pay service (including accessing the service through any automated means), or any servers or networks connected to the service, or any policies, requirements or regulations of networks connected to the service (including any unauthorized access to, use or monitoring of data or traffic thereon).

2.     Use on Macs

You can use Apple Pay on supported Macs to initiate payments on websites accessed through Safari.  This feature requires you to have a Supported Card that has been provisioned to a supported iOS device or Apple Watch (“Supported Devices”).  When you check out from a website using Apple Pay, you will be required to authorize the transaction using a Supported Device.

In addition to the terms set forth in these Supplemental Terms, your use of Apple Pay to initiate payments on websites access through Safari is subject to the Apple Pay Supplemental Terms and Conditions applicable to your Supported Devices, the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference and which can be accessed by going to:  Settings > General > About > Legal > License from your iOS device, or About > Legal > License from the Watch app on a paired iOS device.  Supported Devices may change from time to time.

On a MacBook Pro with built-in Touch ID, you can set up Apple Pay by provisioning Supported Cards and using Apple Pay to make payments on websites accessed through Safari.  In order to use Apple Pay on these Macs, you must have Supported Cards that are associated with an active iCloud account.  Apple Pay is available only to individuals aged 13 years or older, and may be subject to additional age-based restrictions imposed by iCloud or the relevant card issuer of your Supported Cards.

3.     Apple’s Relationship With You

Apple does not process payments, or have any other control over payments, returns, refunds, rewards, value, discounts, orders, order fulfilment, or other commerce activity that may arise out of your use of this feature.  

The terms of cardholder agreements you may have in place with your card issuer will continue to govern your use of your Supported Cards and their use in connection with Apple Pay.  Similarly, your purchase of any goods or services using the Apple Pay feature will be subject to the merchant’s terms and conditions.  

Apple Card is only available in the United States and is issued by Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Salt Lake City Branch (“Apple Card Issuer”). When you apply for Apple Card, you are applying to open an account with the Apple Card Issuer. Apple Card is only available to individuals aged 18 years or older (or older depending on your state of residence). The financial institution responsible for offering Apple Card is subject to change, and your use of Apple Card is subject to their terms and conditions.

Nothing in the License or these Supplemental Terms modifies the terms of any cardholder or merchant agreement, or other terms and conditions applicable to the use of the features of Apple Pay, and such terms will govern your use of the applicable feature of Apple Pay and their virtual representation on your supported Mac.

You agree that Apple is not a party to your cardholder or merchant agreements, nor is Apple responsible for the (a) content, accuracy or unavailability of any payment cards, commerce activities, transactions, purchases, orders, order fulfilment, or receipts while using Apple Pay functionality; (b) issuance of credit or assessing eligibility for credit; (c) activities of issuers, merchants, or other third parties related to your use of Apple Pay or Wallet; (d) decisions made by an issuer, merchant, or other third party in connection with a Supported Card; (e) accrual or redemption of rewards or stored value under a merchant’s program; or (f) funding or reloading of prepaid cards.  For all disputes or questions about payment cards or associated commerce activity, please contact your issuer or the applicable merchant.

4.     Privacy

When using Apple Pay to initiate a payment transaction to be completed on a Supported Device, Apple Pay will transfer payment information in an encrypted format between your Mac and your Supported Device to complete your transaction. When using Apple Pay to make a payment transaction on a MacBook Pro with built-in Touch ID, your payment information will be provided in encrypted format to the website as part of that transaction. When adding a card to Apple Pay on a MacBook Pro with built-in Touch ID, information about your device, such as whether certain device settings are enabled and device use patterns (e.g. percent time device is in motion, approximate number of calls per week), will be sent to Apple to determine your eligibility and to prevent fraud. You can find detailed information on the personal information collected, used or shared as part of your use of Apple Pay by reading the relevant service specific privacy notices, including About Apple Pay and Privacy, which can be accessed on your iOS device or Mac, or within the Watch app on a paired iOS device, or by visiting https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy.  By using Apple Pay, you agree and consent to Apple’s and its subsidiaries’ and agents’ transmission, collection, maintenance, processing, and use of all of the foregoing information, to provide Apple Pay functionality.

5.     Security

Apple Pay stores virtual representations of your Supported Cards, and you understand and acknowledge that providing your device passcode or password to a third party, or allowing a third party to add their fingerprint to use Touch ID on your Supported Device or Mac, may result in their ability to make Apple Pay payments within websites on your Mac.   You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your devices and the applicable passcodes and passwords.  You agree that Apple does not have any responsibility if you lose or share access to your device, or if you make unauthorized modifications to macOS.

If your device is lost or stolen and you have Find My enabled, you can use Find My or https://icloud.com to attempt to suspend the ability to pay with the virtual Supported Cards on the device by putting it into Lost Mode. You can also erase your device, which will attempt to suspend the ability to pay with the virtual Supported Cards on the device. You should also contact the card issuer of your Supported Cards in order to prevent unauthorized access to your virtual Supported Cards.

If you report or Apple suspects fraudulent or abusive activity, you agree to cooperate with Apple in any investigation and to use any fraud prevention measures we prescribe.

6.     Limitation of Liability

IN ADDITION TO THE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THE LICENSE, APPLE DOES NOT ASSUME ANY LIABILITY FOR PURCHASES, PAYMENTS, TRANSACTIONS, ORDERS, ORDER FULFILMENT, RECEIPT INFORMATION, OR OTHER COMMERCE ACTIVITY MADE USING THE APPLE PAY FEATURE, AND YOU AGREE TO LOOK SOLELY TO AGREEMENTS YOU MAY HAVE WITH YOUR CARD ISSUER, PAYMENT NETWORK, OR MERCHANT TO RESOLVE ANY QUESTIONS OR DISPUTES RELATING TO YOUR SUPPORTED CARDS, VIRTUAL SUPPORTED CARDS AND ASSOCIATED COMMERCE ACTIVITY.
