24124116.1 **Updates to the Services and Software.** We may modify, update, or discontinue the Services and Software (including any portions or features), which modifications, updates or discontinuations may, for clarity, be detrimental or result in a diminishment of value to you, at any time, without liability to you or anyone else. For changes to paid offerings that, in Adobe's reasonable discretion, are detrimental or result in a material diminishment of value to you, we will make reasonable commercial efforts to notify you of such modification, update, or discontinuation. If we discontinue the Services or Software in its entirety, we will use reasonable commercial efforts to allow you to transition your Content, and we may provide you with a pro rata refund for any unused fees for that Service or Software that you prepaid.

No Modifications, Reverse Engineering, Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML).** Certain elements of the Services and Software constitute our (or our licensors') confidential information. Except as expressly permitted in the Terms, you may not (and will not allow third parties to) (A) modify, port, adapt, or translate any portion of the Services or Software; (B) reverse engineer (including but not limited to monitoring or tracking the inputs and outputs flowing through a system or an application in order to recreate that system), decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover, within any Service or Software, the source code, data representations or underlying algorithms, processes, methods, and any other portion of such Service or Software; or (C) use, or allow third parties to use, the Services or Software (or any content, data, output, or other information received or derived from the Services or Software) to directly or indirectly create, train, test, or otherwise improve any machine learning algorithms or artificial intelligence systems contained within the Services or Software, including any architectures, models, or weights (which is considered Adobe's confidential and proprietary information). If the laws of your jurisdiction give you the right to decompile the Services or Software to obtain information necessary to render the licensed portions of the Services or Software interoperable with other software, you must first request such information from us. We may, in our discretion, either provide such information to you or impose reasonable conditions, including a reasonable fee, on your decompilation of the Services or Software to ensure that our and our licensors' and suppliers' proprietary rights in the Services and Software are protected.
