All Materials are the property of Amazon or its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third-party licensors. Unless otherwise expressly stated in writing by Amazon, by agreeing to and complying with the Agreement you are granted a limited, revocable and non- sublicensable license (i.e., a personal and limited right) to access and use the Amp Services for your personal, non-commercial use.

Any use of the Materials or the Amp Services in any way other than as expressly permitted in the Agreement, will result in the immediate termination of the license granted in the Agreement. Unless explicitly stated in the Terms of Use, nothing in them shall be interpreted as conferring any license to intellectual property rights, whether by estoppel, implication, or other legal principles. Amazon can terminate this license as set out in Section 13.

You will only use, publish, distribute, record and otherwise disseminate User Content on the Amp Services for which you are the creator or own or control all right in and to the User Content or otherwise have obtained all necessary rights, consents, and waivers (including, but not limited to, sound recordings, musical works, compositions, lyrics, and/or performances that may be included in your content) that may be required in connection with our exploitation of the rights you’ve granted Amazon under the Agreement.

You are responsible for and agree to pay any fees due with respect to your User Content, other than fees associated with the Amazon Content. “Amazon Content” means any music or other materials Amazon makes available to you for use in creating User Content within the service, including any tools Amazon may make available such as an Amazon audio library. You will give us information we request with respect to the ownership and control of any content in your User Content. You will designate explicit (e.g., mature) content as such by using the explicit content flag.

THE SECURITY MEASURES TO PROTECT USER CONTENT USED BY AMAZON IN THE Agreement ARE PROVIDED AND USED “AS-IS” AND WITH NO WARRANTIES, GUARANTEES, CONDITIONS, ASSURANCES, OR OTHER TERMS THAT SUCH SECURITY MEASURES WILL WITHSTAND ATTEMPTS TO EVADE SECURITY MECHANISMS OR THAT THERE WILL BE NO CRACKS, DISABLEMENTS, OR OTHER CIRCUMVENTION OF SUCH SECURITY MEASURES.

Your use of the Amp Services is at your own risk. In addition, these rules do not create any private right of action on the part of any third party or any reasonable expectation that the Amp Services will not contain any content that is prohibited by such rules.

Amazon is not liable for any statements or representations included in User Content. Amazon does not endorse any User Content, opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed therein, and Amazon expressly disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Content. Amazon reserves the right to remove, screen, or edit any User Content posted or stored on the Amp Services at any time and for any reason, without notice. Any use of Amp in violation of the foregoing violates the Agreement and may result in, among other things, termination or suspension of your rights to use Amp at Amazon’s sole discretion, without notice.

Amazon does not control and does not have any obligation to monitor User Content. You acknowledge and agree that Amazon may monitor any and all User Content and the use of the Amp Services by Users. In the event Amazon elects to monitor User Content on the Amp Services, Amazon assumes no responsibility or liability for User Content or any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use or removal of any User Content. As part of Amazon’s monitoring, should we choose to exercise such right, Amazon may record, inspect, copy, or remove any content found on the Amp Services. Any monitoring or use of User Content will be in accordance with our Privacy Notice. Please see our Community Guidelines for more information regarding the types of content we do not allow on the Amp Services.

Amp, the Amp logos, and any other product or service name, logo, or slogan used by Amazon, and the look and feel of the Amp Services, including all page headers, custom graphics, button icons, and scripts, are trademarks or trade dress of Amazon, and may not be used in whole or in part in connection with any product or service that is not Amazon’s, in any manner that is likely to cause confusion among customers, or in any manner that disparages or discredits Amazon, without our prior written permission. Any use of these trademarks must be in accordance with the Amazon Trademark Guidelines. All other trademarks referenced in the Amp Services are the property of their respective owners. Reference on the Amp Services to any products, services, processes, or other information by trade name, trademark, manufacturer, supplier, or otherwise does not constitute or imply endorsement, sponsorship, or recommendation thereof by us or any other affiliation.

In addition to the User Content, Amazon may provide other third-party content on the Amp Services (collectively, the “Third-Party Content”). Amazon does not control or endorse any Third-Party Content and makes no representation or warranties of any kind regarding the Third-Party Content, including without limitation regarding its accuracy or completeness. Please be aware that we do not create Third-Party Content, update, or monitor it. Therefore we are not responsible for any Third-Party Content on the Amp Services.

You are responsible for deciding if you want to access or use third-party websites or applications that link from the Amp Services (the “Reference Sites”). Amazon does not control or endorse any such Reference Sites or the information, materials, products, or services contained on or accessible through Reference Sites, and makes no representations or warranties of any kind regarding the Reference Sites. In addition, your correspondence or business dealings with, or participation in promotions of, advertisers found on or through the Amp Services are solely between you and such advertiser. Access and use of Reference Sites, including the information, materials, products, and services on or available through Reference Sites is solely at your own risk.

If you provide suggested improvements to the Amp Services (“Suggestions”) to us, we will be entitled to use Suggestions without restriction. You hereby irrevocably assign, including by present assignment of future rights, to us all right, title, and interest in and to Suggestions and agree to provide us any assistance we require to document, perfect, and maintain our rights in Suggestions.

a. Changes

We may without notice (i) terminate this Agreement; (ii) restrict, suspend, or terminate your use of the Amp Services; or (iii) remove your User Content from the Amp Services and our affiliates’ services at any time in our sole discretion. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, your only remedy with respect to any dissatisfaction with: (A) the Amp Services, (B) any term of the Agreement, (C) any policy or practice of Amazon in operating the Amp Services, or (D) any content or information transmitted through the Amp Services, is to terminate your account and to discontinue use of any and all parts of the Amp Services.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Amazon (including Amazon’s affiliates), and its contractors, employees, officers, directors, agents, third-party suppliers, licensors, and partners (individually and collectively, the “Amazon Parties”) from any claims, losses, damages, demands, expenses, costs, and liabilities, including legal fees and expenses, arising out of or related to your access, use, or misuse of the Amp Services, any User Content you post, store, or otherwise transmit in or through the Amp Services, your violation of the rights of any third party, any violation by you of the Agreement, or any breach of the representations, warranties, and covenants made by you in the Agreement. You agree to promptly notify the Amazon Parties of any third-party claim, and Amazon reserves the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify Amazon, and you agree to cooperate with Amazon’s defense of these claims. Amazon will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action, or proceeding upon becoming aware of it.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM AMAZON OR THROUGH THE AMP SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS OF USE.

a. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW: (A) IN NO EVENT SHALL AMAZON OR THE AMAZON PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR LOSS OF DATA, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE AMP SERVICES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY OR RESULTING FROM RELIANCE ON ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM AMAZON, OR THAT RESULT FROM MISTAKES, OMISSIONS, INTERRUPTIONS, DELETION OF FILES OR EMAIL, ERRORS, DEFECTS, VIRUSES, DELAYS IN OPERATION OR TRANSMISSION, OR ANY FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE, WHETHER OR NOT RESULTING FROM ACTS OF GOD, COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE, THEFT, DESTRUCTION, OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO AMAZON’S RECORDS, PROGRAMS, OR SERVICES; AND (B) IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF AMAZON, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, WHETHER ACTIVE, PASSIVE, OR IMPUTED), PRODUCT LIABILITY, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHER THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE AMP SERVICES EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU, IF ANY, FOR ACCESSING THE AMP SERVICES DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE OF THE CLAIM OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS, WHICHEVER IS GREATER. TO THE EXTENT THAT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS LIMITATION OF SUCH LIABILITY, AMAZON SHALL LIMIT ITS LIABILITY TO THE FULL EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW

b. Reference Sites
THESE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY ALSO APPLY WITH RESPECT TO DAMAGES INCURRED BY YOU BY REASON OF ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES SOLD OR PROVIDED ON ANY REFERENCE SITES OR OTHERWISE BY THIRD PARTIES OTHER THAN AMAZON AND RECEIVED THROUGH OR ADVERTISED ON THE AMP SERVICES OR RECEIVED THROUGH ANY REFERENCE SITES.

c. Basis of the Bargain
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT AMAZON HAS OFFERED THE AMP SERVICES, USER CONTENT, MATERIALS, AND OTHER CONTENT AND INFORMATION, SET ITS PRICES, AND ENTERED INTO THE AGREEMENT IN RELIANCE UPON THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENT, THAT THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENT REFLECT A REASONABLE AND FAIR ALLOCATION OF RISK BETWEEN YOU AND AMAZON, AND THAT THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENT FORM AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND AMAZON. AMAZON WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE AMP SERVICES TO YOU ON AN ECONOMICALLY REASONABLE BASIS WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS.

You and we are, and will remain at all times, independent contractors, and nothing in the Agreement will be construed to create an agency, employment, fiduciary, representative or any other relationship between you and us. You will not represent yourself to be an employee, representative, or agent of us. You understand and agree that you do not have authority to bind us in any manner, or enter into any agreement or incur any liability on behalf of us.

a. Governing Law
By using the Amp Services, you agree that applicable federal law, and the laws of the state of Washington, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern the Agreement and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and Amazon. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of any Amp Service will be adjudicated in the state or Federal courts in King County, Washington, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in these courts. We each waive any right to a jury trial.

b. Waiver
If we fail to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Agreement, it will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of the Agreement will be effective only if in writing and signed by the relevant party.

c. Survival
Upon termination of the Agreement, any provision which, by its nature or express terms should survive, will survive such termination or expiration, including, but not limited to, Sections 6, 10, 12, and 15-19.

d. Notices
We may communicate with you in connection with your use of the Amp Services electronically and in other media, and you consent to such communications regardless of any customer communication or similar preferences or requests you may have indicated on the Amazon.com website or by any other means. Any notice or other communication from us will be given to you via e-mail you used to accept this Agreement, or to such other e-mail or physical addresses as you or we may specify from time to time. Any notice of termination or other legal notice or communication from you to us will be given via e-mail to contracts-legal@amazon.com. The date of receipt will, in the case of e-mail, be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted.

e. Assignment
The Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted under the Agreement, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by Amazon without restriction. Any assignment attempted to be made in violation of the Agreement shall be void.

f. Copyright Notices
Amazon respects the intellectual property of others and follows the requirements set forth in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and other applicable laws. If you are the copyright owner or agent thereof and believe that content posted on the Amp Services infringes upon your copyright, please submit a notice following our DMCA Guidelines which include further information about our policies, what to include in your notice, and where to submit your notice.

g. Entire Agreement; Severability
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Amazon and governs your use of the Amp Services, superseding any prior agreements between you and Amazon (unless you have previously entered into an offline agreement with Amazon with respect to the User Content and your use of the Amp Services). If any term or condition in the Agreement is deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining term or condition.
