FAQs
Where
can I send suggestions for games?
We appreciate the time and energy people put into making suggestions
for our current and future games. Our company policy, however,
prevents us from accepting for review any unsolicited ideas. Often
in our industry, an idea being submitted will be identical or
similar to one already used by other companies, or already being
independently developed by or for a company. Therefore, Orbital
Frog Productions® has adopted the unalterable policy of refusing
to accept or look at any unsolicited submissions or ideas.
What
is Orbital Frog Production's® copyright / trademark policy for
the Internet, specifically for fan sites? Can I use Orbital Frog
Productions® images, text or sound on my web page? Is it ok if
I use screenshots I take in-game on my web page?
Yes, within certain limits. We asked our legal department to provide
some guidelines for you, and here is what they said:
Orbital
Frog Productions® hereby grants you a personal, non-exclusive,
non-transferable and non-assignable license to use and display,
for home, noncommercial and personal use only, one copy of any
material and/or software that you may download from this site,
including, but not limited to, any files, codes, audio or images
incorporated in or generated by the software (collectively the
"Downloaded Content") provided, however, that you must include
or maintain all copyright and other notices contained or associated
with such Downloaded Content. You acknowledge and agree that you
may not sublicense, assign or otherwise transfer this license
or the Downloaded Content and that no title to the Downloaded
Content has been or will be transferred to you from Orbital Frog
Productions® or anyone else. You also agree that you will not
alter, disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer or otherwise modify
the Downloaded Content.
Also, we reserve the right to revoke this limited use license
at any time, for any reason, and at the sole discretion of Orbital
Frog Productions®. You may not use our materials on sites that
feature defamatory pornographic, or inflammatory content, including,
but not limited to, hacks and cheats for any of our games or any
other content that Orbital Frog Productions® find objectionable
or unlawful.
Are
there any legal notices and disclaimers that I need to have on
my site when talking about your products?
Yes. You must include all copyright, trademark and other notices
as appropriate. Appropriate notices can be acquired from here.
Can
I register a domain names containing some portion of your product
names such as "InfiltrateMe.com" or "Infiltrated.com?"
Orbital Frog Productions® does not condone the use of our product
names in other domain names. We are concerned that such use could
cause confusion for our customers who may assume that the domain
is associated with Orbital Frog Productions®.
Can
I put your patches and demos on my web site for download?
Yes. We allow non-commercial mirroring of our patches and demos,
so long as you do not alter the patches or demos in any way, and
all files included with the original patch or demo are present
and intact. Orbital Frog Productions® reserves the right to refuse
permission to host or distribute our patches and demos to anyone,
for any reason, at any time.
Can
I write novels, screenplays, theatrical productions or other adaptations
based on your games?
No. Orbital Frog Productions® reserves the right to extend and
expand our properties to other media. We want to provide a consistent
story and universe for our customers, and want to ensure that
only the highest quality, officially licensed and approved material
is created based on our characters and other creative properties.
Can
I get authorization to do an expansion pack, novel, screenplay,
theatrical production, or other adaptation based on your games?
Unfortunately, Orbital Frog Productions® cannot accept unsolicited
ideas or submissions. As a result, we will not be able to review
or authorize any submissions related to expansions, novels, screenplays,
productions or other adaptations.
Can
I write music with samples or characters from your game?
We appreciate the creative energies of customers. Use of our music,
sound samples, or characters from our game in your original compositions
is limited for your own personal use and creative exploration.
You may not sell or distribute for commercial purpose any music
containing samples of music, sound or characters taken from our
game. Any use of these materials would also be subject to the
terms of our End User License Agreement included with each product.
Can
I create and/or distribute hack and cheats for your games?
No. Orbital Frog Productions® does not support or condone the
use or distribution of cheats and/or hacks for use with Orbital
Frog Production® games under any circumstance.
