Azure Maps terms and conditions

Hey Neil Carr

You’re correct—Azure Maps does not have a standalone “End User License Agreement” like Bing Maps Enterprise. Instead, it falls under Microsoft’s broader legal and licensing framework for Azure services.

1. Microsoft Customer Agreement (MCA) or Enterprise Agreement

• If Azure Maps is purchased through an Azure subscription, usage is governed by:
  • Microsoft Customer Agreement (MCA) or
    • Microsoft Online Subscription Agreement (MOSA) (where MCA isn’t available).
    • These agreements define the legal terms for all Azure services, including Azure Maps. Link: Microsoft Azure Legal Information

2. Microsoft Product Terms

• The Product Terms site includes service-specific terms for Azure Maps under the Azure category.
• Covers:
  • Licensing use rights
    • Privacy/security commitments
      • Applicable programs (EA, MCA, CSP, etc.) Link: Microsoft Product Terms – Azure Maps

3. Licensing Use Rights

• Azure Maps requires a license even if you have an Azure subscription or Enterprise Agreement.
• Detailed licensing use rights and restrictions: Link: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2224700

4. Pricing & Transaction Details

• For consumption-based pricing and transaction rules:
  • Azure Maps Pricing
    • Understanding Azure Maps Transactions

What customer can Include in Client Contracts

• Reference the Microsoft Customer Agreement or Enterprise Agreement as governing terms.
• Add a clause pointing to the Microsoft Product Terms for Azure Maps.
• Include the Licensing Use Rights link for clarity on usage restrictions.

Hope it helps

Thank you.
