This agreement replaces the earlier “LICENSE-EULA” template shipped with the installer. The template's statement that the software “uses no network access and collects no personal data” is not correct; the app's network use is described below and in the Privacy Policy.
1. Parties and definitions
This agreement is between the licensor [Seller name / trade name — to be completed] (the “Licensor”) and the person who installs or uses the software (the “User”). “Software” means the TACTRIX Editor 27 desktop application (it may also appear in the app as “FM27 Live Editor”), its updates and documentation. “Game” means Football Manager 27; the Game is not the subject of this agreement and is not supplied with the Software.
2. Scope of the licence
- The Software is licensed, not sold. The Licensor grants the User a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Software for personal, non-commercial purposes in line with this agreement.
- Free mode: without a licence the Software may be installed and every page viewed read-only; nothing is written to the Game.
- Yearly licence: with a valid licence key every editing feature may be used during the licence term. The licence may be active on at most 2 devices at a time. See the Licensing Terms.
- When the licence term ends or the licence is terminated, the Software returns to free mode.
3. Activation and technical protection measures
- The licence is used with online activation and may be active on at most 2 devices at a time.
- The licence is device-bound: activation is signed with a device-specific, non-exportable key (TPM 2.0 where available); a licence file copied to another computer does not work.
- The app renews the licence online roughly every 3 days; without a connection it keeps working offline for 7 days more. After that, or if the computer clock is set back, editing needs an online check.
- Licences that expire, are cancelled after a refund or are suspended for misuse stop working within a few days; the app then returns to the free read-only mode.
These measures only serve to ensure the licence is used as agreed. The data sent for activation and validation is described in the Privacy Policy.
4. Updates
By default the Software checks for a new version at most once a day; the check can be switched off in Settings. Installing an update is your choice, but compatibility with game patches and security fixes are provided only in the current version. During the licence term, compatibility and bug-fix updates for the licensed features are provided at no extra charge.
5. Restrictions
Except where the law expressly permits it, the User may not:
- copy and distribute, sell, rent, share or sub-license the Software or the licence key;
- bypass, disable or attack the Software's licence checks, technical protection measures or the licence server;
- reverse engineer, decompile or create derivative works of the Software;
- use the Software contrary to the Acceptable Use Policy, in particular in online or competitive game modes.

7. Your saves and backups
The Software changes the memory of the running Game; changes become permanent when you save your career. Before the first edit the Software makes an automatic backup of your save file (can be switched off in Settings) and lets you undo most edits; some actions (e.g. youth intake, adding to the shortlist) cannot be undone and the Software warns you beforehand. We recommend you also keep your own backups of important careers.
8. Lack of conformity and your statutory rights
The Software must match the features described before purchase and the compatibility conditions stated in the pre-contractual information. If it does not, your statutory rights as a consumer (repair at no cost, price reduction, termination and others) remain unaffected; nothing in this agreement removes or limits them.
Game updates may temporarily disable some features; this is disclosed clearly before purchase and the Software may run read-only during that time. Remedy offered if compatibility cannot be restored for a long time: [Remedy for long incompatibility — to be completed]. This is in addition to your statutory rights.
9. Liability
The Licensor does not limit its liability for intent or gross negligence, for injury to life or health, or under mandatory rules such as consumer law. Otherwise, to the extent permitted by law, it is not liable for damage caused by the User not keeping backups or by use contrary to this agreement.
10. Term and termination
- This agreement starts when you install the Software and lasts while you use it. You may end it at any time by uninstalling the Software; the term and expiry of the yearly licence are governed by the Licence Term and Renewal Terms.
- If the User materially breaches this agreement or the Acceptable Use Policy, the Licensor may suspend or terminate the licence after notifying the User and, where possible, giving reasonable time to remedy the breach.
- Termination does not affect your statutory rights; where the licence ends for reasons attributable to the Licensor, the price of the unused period is refunded.
11. Changes
The Licensor may change this agreement for future versions or renewals and announces material changes in advance. Your current licence period is not changed unilaterally to your disadvantage.
12. Governing law and disputes
This agreement is governed by Turkish law. Mandatory consumer protection rules of your country of residence remain unaffected.
Consumers in Türkiye may apply to the Consumer Arbitration Committee (Tüketici Hakem Heyeti) of the place of purchase or of their residence within the monetary limits announced every year by the Ministry of Trade, and above those limits to the Consumer Court after the mandatory mediation required by law. Consumers elsewhere keep the dispute routes of their country of residence.
For disputes with non-consumers the courts of [Competent courts — to be completed] have jurisdiction.
