3. Use Restrictions
3.1 General Restrictions
End User shall not, without the express prior written consent of TomTom and LOCUS:
- Use the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions to create any derivative work, competing database, or substitute service by extracting, aggregating, or reutilizing the underlying data;
- Copy or use the structure and arrangement of the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions for the creation of a competing product;
- Reverse engineer, disassemble, or decompile the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions, or attempt to gain access to their source code;
- Defeat, bypass, remove, or circumvent any software protection mechanisms;
- Upload or introduce viruses, malware, or other harmful code in connection with the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions;
- Rent, lease, sell, transfer, assign, sublicense, or modify any part of the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions except as expressly permitted.
- Such use does not cause the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions to become subject to a Copyleft License; and
- Such use does not materially reduce, impair, or negatively impact the accuracy, completeness, integrity, or safety of the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions.
3.2 AI and Machine Learning
End User shall not apply any machine learning, AI algorithm, or similar process to the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions where the output of such process would eliminate the need for the TomTom Licensed Products or similar products.
End User shall not use or permit the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions to be stored or retained in any public reference dataset from which an AI or machine learning process may generate results for delivery to parties other than End User.
For clarity: LOCUS's own use of TomTom data as an input to LOCUS's proprietary analytics models and digital twins, where TomTom data (or similar data) continues to be used as a data input, does not violate this restriction. This restriction is directed at uses that would render the TomTom Licensed Products redundant.

- Such use does not materially reduce, impair, or negatively impact the accuracy, completeness, integrity, or safety of the TomTom Licensed Products or LOCUS Permitted Solutions.
