Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions create a contract between you and Apple (the Agreement). Please read
the Agreement carefully. To confirm your understanding and acceptance of the Agreement, click
Agree.
A. INTRODUCTION TO OUR SERVICES
This Agreement governs your use of Apples services (Services), through which you can buy, get,
license, rent or subscribe to media, apps (Apps), and other in-app services (Content). Our Services
are: iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, Apple Music, and Apple News. Our Services are available for
your use in your country of residence (Home Country). To use our Services, you need compatible
hardware, software (latest version recommended and sometimes required) and Internet access (fees
may apply). Our Services performance may be affected by these factors.
B. USING OUR SERVICES
PAYMENTS, TAXES, AND REFUNDS
You can acquire Content on our Services for free or for a charge, either of which is referred to as a
Transaction. Each Transaction is an electronic contract between you and Apple, and/or you and the
entity providing the Content on our Services. However, if you are a customer of iTunes S..r.l. and you
acquire an App or a book, iTunes S..r.l. is the merchant of record; this means that you acquire the
Content from iTunes S..r.l., and it is licensed by the App Provider (as defined below) or book
publisher. When you make your first Transaction, we will ask you to choose how frequently we should
ask for your password for future Transactions. If you enable Touch ID for Transactions, we will ask you
to authenticate all Transactions with your fingerprint. Manage your password settings at any time by
following these instructions: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204030. Apple will charge your
payment method (such as your credit card, debit card, gift card/code, or other method available in
your Home Country) for any paid Transactions, including any applicable taxes. If you pre-order
Content, you will be charged when the Content is delivered to you (unless you cancel prior to the
Contents availability). For details about how Transactions are billed, please visit
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582. All Transactions are final. Content prices may change at any
time. If technical problems prevent or unreasonably delay delivery of Content, your exclusive and sole
remedy is either replacement of the Content or refund of the price paid, as determined by Apple. From
time to time, Apple may refuse a refund request if we find evidence of fraud, refund abuse, or other
manipulative behavior that entitles Apple to a corresponding counterclaim. Terms related to gift
cards/codes are available here: http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/giftcards/.
APPLE ID
Using our Services and accessing your Content requires an Apple ID. An Apple ID is the account you
use across Apples ecosystem. Your Apple ID is valuable, and you are responsible for maintaining its
confidentiality and security. Apple is not responsible for any losses arising from the unauthorized use
of your Apple ID. Please contact Apple if you suspect that your Apple ID has been compromised.
You must be age 13 (or equivalent minimum age in your Home Country, as set forth in the registration
process) to create an Apple ID and use our Services. Apple IDs for persons under this age can be
created by a parent or legal guardian using Family Sharing or by an approved educational institution.
PRIVACY
Your use of our Services is subject to Apples Privacy Policy, which is available at
http://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/.
SERVICES AND CONTENT USAGE RULES
Your use of the Services and Content must follow the rules set forth in this section (Usage Rules).
Any other use of the Services and Content is a material breach of this Agreement. Apple may monitor
your use of the Services and Content to ensure that you are following these Usage Rules.

Subscription increases and, if required, seek your consent to continue. You will be charged no more
than 24 hours prior to the start of the latest Paid Subscription period. Certain Paid Subscriptions may
offer a free trial prior to charging your payment method. If you decide to unsubscribe from a Paid
Subscription before we start charging your payment method, cancel the subscription before the free
trial ends.

you. To see the Content types available to you in your Home Country, go to the Services or visit
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204411.
NON-APPLE DEVICES
If you use our Services on a non-Apple-branded device, you may not be able to access all features or
Content types. Terms in this Agreement relating to unavailable features or Content types are not

that all terms of this Agreement will apply to your use on such device.
C. YOUR SUBMISSIONS TO OUR SERVICES
Our Services may allow you to submit materials such as comments, pictures, videos, and podcasts
(including associated metadata and artwork). Your use of such features must comply with the
Submissions Guidelines below, which may be updated from time to time. If you see materials that do
not comply with the Submissions Guidelines, please use the Report a Concern feature. You hereby
grant Apple a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, nonexclusive license to use the materials you submit
within the Services and related marketing. Apple may monitor and decide to remove or edit any

- impersonate or misrepresent your affiliation with another person, or entity;
- post or transmit spam, including but not limited to unsolicited or unauthorized advertising,
promotional materials, or informational announcements;
- plan or engage in any illegal, fraudulent, or manipulative activity.
D. FAMILY SHARING
Family Sharing allows you to share eligible Content with up to six members of a Family. The organizer
of a Family invites other members to participate, and agrees to pay for all Transactions initiated by
Family members (the Organizer). The Organizer must be 18 years or older and the parent or legal
guardian of any Family member under age 13 or the equivalent minimum age in their Home Country
(as set forth in the registration process). Apple devices are required for access to all of the Family
Sharing features.
The Organizer's payment method is used to pay for any Transaction initiated by a Family member
(except when the Family members account has store credit, which is always used first). Family
members are acting as agents for the Organizer when the Organizers payment method is used. The
Organizer hereby agrees (1) to pay for such Transactions, and (2) that Transactions initiated by Family
members are authorized. Organizers are responsible for complying with their payment method
contract, and assume all risk related to sharing access to the payment method with Family members.
A receipt or invoice for any Family member Transaction is sent to the initiating Family member and the
Organizer.
Ask to Buy: Ask to Buy is a convenient feature that allows an Organizer to approve each Transaction
initiated by a Family member under age 18 (or the equivalent age of majority in your Home Country).
The Organizer must be the parent or legal guardian of any Family member for whom Ask to Buy is
activated. Products downloaded from Family members or acquired via redemption codes are not
subject to Ask to Buy.

Family Member changes: When a Family member leaves or is removed from the Family, the remaining
Family members may no longer be able to access the former members Content, including Content
acquired with the Organizers payment method.
Family Sharing Rules: You can only belong to one Family at a time, and may join any Family no more
than twice per year. You can change the Apple ID you associate with a Family no more than once every
90 days. All Family members must share the same Home Country. Not all Content, including In-App
Purchases, subscriptions, and some previously acquired Apps, are eligible for Family Sharing.
E. RECOMMENDATION FEATURES
The Services will recommend Content to you based on your downloads, purchases and other activities.
You may opt out from receiving such recommendations in your account settings.
Some recommendation features may require your permission before they are turned on. If you turn on
these features, you will be asked to give Apple permission to collect and store certain data, including
but not limited to data about your device activity, location, and usage. Please carefully read the
information presented when you turn on these features.
F. ADDITIONAL ITUNES STORE TERMS
SEASON PASS AND MULTI-PASS
A Pass allows you to purchase and receive television Content as it becomes available. A Season Pass
applies to television Content that has a limited number of episodes per season; a Multi-Pass applies to
television Content that is available on an ongoing basis. The full price of a Season Pass or Multi-Pass
is charged at the time of the Transaction. Season Pass or Multi-Pass Content is available for download
up to 90 days after the last episode becomes available. If automatic renewal is selected when you
obtain a Multi-Pass, you will be charged the full price of each subsequent Multi-Pass cycle. You can
turn off automatic renewal prior to the beginning of the next Multi-Pass cycle in your account
settings. If a Content provider delivers to Apple fewer TV episodes than planned when you purchased
a Season Pass, we will credit to your Apple ID the retail value of the corresponding number of episodes
that were not provided to Apple.
G. ADDITIONAL APP STORE TERMS
LICENSE OF APP STORE CONTENT
App licenses are provided to you by Apple or a third party developer (App Provider). If you are a
customer of iTunes S..r.l., the merchant of record is iTunes S..r.l., which means that you acquire the
App license from iTunes S..r.l., but the App is licensed by the App Provider. An App licensed by Apple
is an Apple App; an App licensed by an App Provider is a Third Party App. Apple acts as an agent
for App Providers in providing the App Store and is not a party to the sales contract or user agreement
between you and the App Provider. Any App that you acquire is governed by the Licensed Application
End User License Agreement (Standard EULA) set forth below, unless Apple or the App Provider
provides an overriding custom license agreement (Custom EULA). The App Provider of any Third
Party App is solely responsible for its content, warranties, and claims that you may have related to the
Third Party App. You acknowledge and agree that Apple is a third-party beneficiary of the Standard
EULA or Custom EULA applicable to each Third Party App and may therefore enforce such agreement.
Certain Apps, such as stickers and iMessage apps, may not appear on the device springboard but can
be accessed and used in the Messages app drawer.
IN-APP PURCHASES
Apps may offer content, services or functionality for use within such Apps (In-App Purchases). InApp Purchases that are consumed during the use of the App (for example, virtual gems) cannot be
transferred among devices and can be downloaded only once. You must authenticate your account
before making In-App Purchases separate from any authentication to obtain other Content by
entering your password or using Touch ID. You will be able to make additional In-App Purchases for
fifteen minutes without re-authenticating unless youve asked us to require a password for every
purchase or have enabled Touch ID. You can turn off the ability to make In-App Purchases by
following these instructions: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201304.
APP MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT
Apple is responsible for providing maintenance and support for Apple Apps only, or as required under
applicable law. App Providers are responsible for providing maintenance and support for Third Party
Apps.
LICENSED APPLICATION END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
Apps made available through the App Store are licensed, not sold, to you. Your license to each App is
subject to your prior acceptance of either this Licensed Application End User License Agreement

(Standard EULA), or a custom end user license agreement between you and the Application Provider
(Custom EULA), if one is provided. Your license to any Apple App under this Standard EULA or
Custom EULA is granted by Apple, and your license to any Third Party App under this Standard EULA
or Custom EULA is granted by the Application Provider of that Third Party App. Any App that is subject
to this Standard EULA is referred to herein as the Licensed Application. The Application Provider or
Apple as applicable (Licensor) reserves all rights in and to the Licensed Application not expressly
granted to you under this Standard EULA.
a. Scope of License: Licensor grants to you a nontransferable license to use the Licensed Application
on any Apple-branded products that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules. The
terms of this Standard EULA will govern any content, materials, or services accessible from or
purchased within the Licensed Application as well as upgrades provided by Licensor that replace or
supplement the original Licensed Application, unless such upgrade is accompanied by a Custom EULA.
Except as provided in the Usage Rules, you may not distribute or make the Licensed Application
available over a network where it could be used by multiple devices at the same time. You may not
transfer, redistribute or sublicense the Licensed Application and, if you sell your Apple Device to a
third party, you must remove the Licensed Application from the Apple Device before doing so. You
may not copy (except as permitted by this license and the Usage Rules), reverse-engineer,
disassemble, attempt to derive the source code of, modify, or create derivative works of the Licensed
Application, any updates, or any part thereof (except as and only to the extent that any foregoing
restriction is prohibited by applicable law or to the extent as may be permitted by the licensing terms
governing use of any open-sourced components included with the Licensed Application).
b. Consent to Use of Data: You agree that Licensor may collect and use technical data and related
informationincluding but not limited to technical information about your device, system and
application software, and peripheralsthat is gathered periodically to facilitate the provision of
software updates, product support, and other services to you (if any) related to the Licensed
Application. Licensor may use this information, as long as it is in a form that does not personally
identify you, to improve its products or to provide services or technologies to you.
c. Termination. This Standard EULA is effective until terminated by you or Licensor. Your rights under
this Standard EULA will terminate automatically if you fail to comply with any of its terms.
d. External Services. The Licensed Application may enable access to Licensors and/or third-party
services and websites (collectively and individually, "External Services"). You agree to use the External
Services at your sole risk. Licensor is not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or
accuracy of any third-party External Services, and shall not be liable for any such third-party External
Services. Data displayed by any Licensed Application or External Service, including but not limited to
financial, medical and location information, is for general informational purposes only and is not
guaranteed by Licensor or its agents. You will not use the External Services in any manner that is
inconsistent with the terms of this Standard EULA or that infringes the intellectual property rights of
Licensor or any third party. You agree not to use the External Services to harass, abuse, stalk, threaten
or defame any person or entity, and that Licensor is not responsible for any such use. External
Services may not be available in all languages or in your Home Country, and may not be appropriate or
available for use in any particular location. To the extent you choose to use such External Services,
you are solely responsible for compliance with any applicable laws. Licensor reserves the right to
change, suspend, remove, disable or impose access restrictions or limits on any External Services at
any time without notice or liability to you.
e. NO WARRANTY: YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT USE OF THE LICENSED
APPLICATION IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE
LICENSED APPLICATION AND ANY SERVICES PERFORMED OR PROVIDED BY THE LICENSED APPLICATION
ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND AS AVAILABLE, WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, AND LICENSOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE
LICENSED APPLICATION AND ANY SERVICES, EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND/OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, OF
SATISFACTORY QUALITY, OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OF ACCURACY, OF QUIET
ENJOYMENT, AND OF NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN
INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY LICENSOR OR ITS AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE SHALL CREATE A
WARRANTY. SHOULD THE LICENSED APPLICATION OR SERVICES PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE
ENTIRE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR, OR CORRECTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT
ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIMITATIONS ON APPLICABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS
OF A CONSUMER, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
f. Limitation of Liability. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LICENSOR BE
LIABLE FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA,
BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE LICENSED APPLICATION, HOWEVER CAUSED,
REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF LICENSOR
HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY, OR OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,

SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. In no event shall Licensors total liability to you for all
damages (other than as may be required by applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed
the amount of fifty dollars ($50.00). The foregoing limitations will apply even if the above stated
remedy fails of its essential purpose.
g. You may not use or otherwise export or re-export the Licensed Application except as authorized by
United States law and the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Licensed Application was obtained. In
particular, but without limitation, the Licensed Application may not be exported or re-exported (a)
into any U.S.-embargoed countries or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's Specially
Designated Nationals List or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Persons List or Entity List. By
using the Licensed Application, you represent and warrant that you are not located in any such
country or on any such list. You also agree that you will not use these products for any purposes
prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture,
or production of nuclear, missile, or chemical or biological weapons.
h. The Licensed Application and related documentation are "Commercial Items", as that term is
defined at 48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "Commercial Computer Software" and "Commercial
Computer Software Documentation", as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 or 48 C.F.R.
227.7202, as applicable. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 or 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through
227.7202-4, as applicable, the Commercial Computer Software and Commercial Computer Software
Documentation are being licensed to U.S. Government end users (a) only as Commercial Items and (b)
with only those rights as are granted to all other end users pursuant to the terms and conditions
herein. Unpublished-rights reserved under the copyright laws of the United States.
i. Except to the extent expressly provided in the following paragraph, this Agreement and the
relationship between you and Apple shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding
its conflicts of law provisions. You and Apple agree to submit to the personal and exclusive
jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of Santa Clara, California, to resolve any dispute or
claim arising from this Agreement. If (a) you are not a U.S. citizen; (b) you do not reside in the U.S.; (c)
you are not accessing the Service from the U.S.; and (d) you are a citizen of one of the countries
identified below, you hereby agree that any dispute or claim arising from this Agreement shall be
governed by the applicable law set forth below, without regard to any conflict of law provisions, and
you hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the state,
province or country identified below whose law governs:
If you are a citizen of any European Union country or Switzerland, Norway or Iceland, the governing
law and forum shall be the laws and courts of your usual place of residence.
Specifically excluded from application to this Agreement is that law known as the United Nations
Convention on the International Sale of Goods.
H. ADDITIONAL IBOOKS STORE TERMS
You acquire iBooks Store Content from the third-party provider of such Content (the Publisher), not
Apple. Apple acts as an agent for the Publisher in providing iBooks Store Content to you, and
therefore Apple is not a party to the Transaction between you and the Publisher. If you are a customer
of iTunes S..r.l., the merchant of record is iTunes S..r.l., which means that you acquire a license to
use the Content from iTunes S..r.l., but the Content is licensed by the Publisher. The Publisher of the
iBooks Store Content reserves the right to enforce the terms of use relating to such iBooks Store
Content. The Publisher of the iBooks Store Content is solely responsible for such Content, any
warranties to the extent that such warranties have not been disclaimed, and any claims that you or any
other party may have relating to such Content.
I. ADDITIONAL APPLE MUSIC TERMS
APPLE MUSIC MEMBERSHIP
Apple Music is a subscription music service. Your Apple Music membership will automatically renew
until you turn off automatic renewal in account settings. See the Subscriptions section for more
details. When your Apple Music membership ends, you will lose access to any feature of Apple Music
that requires a membership, including but not limited to access to Apple Music songs stored on your
device, and iCloud Music Library. Apple reserves the right to cancel your Apple Music membership if
we are unable to successfully charge your payment method to renew your membership.
Where available, you may be offered an Apple Music membership through your wireless carrier (a
Carrier Membership). If you purchase a Carrier Membership, your carrier will bill you for the cost of
your Apple Music membership. Your billing relationship with the carrier is governed by the carriers
terms and conditions, not this Agreement, and any billing disputes related to a Carrier Membership
must be directed to your carrier, not Apple. By using Apple Music, you agree that your carrier may
exchange your carrier account information, telephone number and subscription information with
Apple, and that Apple may use this information to determine the status of your Carrier Membership.

ICLOUD MUSIC LIBRARY

iCloud Music Library is an Apple Music feature that allows you to access your matched or uploaded
songs, playlists and music videos acquired from Apple Music, the iTunes Store or a third party (iCloud
Music Library Content) on your Apple Music-enabled devices. iCloud Music Library is turned on
automatically when you set up your Apple Music membership. iCloud Music Library collects
information about your iCloud Music Library Content. This information is associated with your Apple
ID, and compared to iCloud Music Library Content currently available on Apple Music. iCloud Music
Library Content that is not matched is uploaded to Apples iCloud Music Library servers (in a format
determined by Apple). You can upload up to 100,000 songs. Songs acquired from the iTunes Store or
Apple Music do not count against this limit. Songs that do not meet certain criteria (for example,
excessively large files) or that are not authorized for your device are not eligible for iCloud Music
Library. When you use iCloud Music Library, Apple logs information such as the tracks you play, stop
or skip, the devices you use, and the time and duration of playback. You agree to use iCloud Music
Library only for lawfully acquired content. iCloud Music Library is provided on an AS IS basis and
could contain errors or inaccuracies. You should back up your data and information prior to using
iCloud Music Library. If you are not an Apple Music member, you may purchase an iTunes Match
subscription, which is subject to the terms set forth in this section.
