Digital Content
Wireless Connectivity
Device and Software
General
For the purposes of this Agreement:
"Content Provider" means the party offering Digital Content in the
Kindle Store, which may be us or a third party; however, for Digital
Content designated as active content in the Kindle Store, "Content
Provider" means the publisher of the Digital Content.
"Digital Content" means digitized electronic content obtained through
the Kindle Store, such as books, newspapers, magazines, journals,
blogs, RSS feeds, games, and other static and interactive electronic
content.
"Kindle" means our portable electronic reading device.
"Kindle Store" means our stores on Kindle, on Reading Applications and
on our website, the homepage of which is located at
www.amazon.com/kindlestore.
"Other Device" means a computer or device other than a Kindle on
which you are authorized to operate a Reading Application.
"Periodicals" means Digital Content made available to you on a
subscription basis, such as electronic newspapers, magazines, journals,
blogs, and other subscription-based content.
"Reading Application" means software (including any updates/upgrades
to that software) we make available that permits users to shop for,
download, browse, and/or use Digital Content on an Other Device.
"Service" means the wireless connectivity that we provide Kindle users,
the provision of Digital Content, Software, and support and other
services that we provide Kindle and Reading Application users, and the
terms and conditions under which we provide each of the foregoing.
"Software" means the Reading Applications and all software on the
Kindle (including any updates/upgrades to that software), and any
related documentation that we make available to you.
1. Digital Content
Use of Digital Content. Upon your download of Digital Content and
payment of any applicable fees (including applicable taxes), the Content
Provider grants you a non-exclusive right to view, use, and display such
Digital Content an unlimited number of times, solely on the Kindle or a
http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200506200&
7/18/2012
Amazon.com Help: Kindle License Agreement and Terms of Use
Page 2 of 8
Reading Application or as otherwise permitted as part of the Service,
solely on the number of Kindles or Other Devices specified in the Kindle
Store, and solely for your personal, non-commercial use. Digital
Content is licensed, not sold, to you by the Content Provider. The
Content Provider may include additional terms for use within its Digital
Content. Those terms will also apply, but this Agreement will govern in
the event of a conflict. Some Digital Content, such as Periodicals, may
not be available to you through Reading Applications.
Limitations. Unless specifically indicated otherwise, you may not sell,
rent, lease, distribute, broadcast, sublicense, or otherwise assign any
rights to the Digital Content or any portion of it to any third party, and
you may not remove or modify any proprietary notices or labels on the
Digital Content. In addition, you may not bypass, modify, defeat, or
circumvent security features that protect the Digital Content.
Periodicals. You may cancel your subscription as permitted in our
cancellation policy in the Kindle Store. A subscription may be
terminated at any time, for example, if a Periodical is no longer
available. If a subscription is terminated before the end of its term, you
will receive a prorated refund. We reserve the right to change
subscription terms and fees from time to time, effective as of the
beginning of the next subscription term.
2. Wireless Connectivity
Use of Wireless Connectivity. Your Kindle uses wireless connectivity
to allow you to shop for and download Digital Content from the Kindle
Store. In general, we do not charge you for this use of wireless
connectivity. Your Kindle may use wireless connectivity to make other
services available to you for which we may charge you a fee, such as
personal file download and subscriptions when you are located in
another country. The fees and terms for such services are located in the
Kindle Store and may change from time to time. If your Kindle
functions with third party services, such as WI-FI access points, a third
party may charge you fees for the use of those services.
Your Conduct. You may use the wireless connectivity provided by us
only in connection with the Service. You may not use the wireless
connectivity for any other purpose.
Availability. If your Kindle is located in an area in which it cannot
maintain wireless connectivity, you may not be able to use some or all
of the Service. We are not responsible for the unavailability of wireless
connectivity for your Kindle or any corresponding loss of Service.
Events beyond our reasonable control (such as changes in service or
terms by wireless carriers) may impact the terms or circumstances
under which we provide you wireless connectivity and may result in a
change to these terms or a temporary or permanent modification or
loss of wireless connectivity for your Kindle.
3. Device and Software
Use of the Software. You may use the Software only on a Kindle or
through a Reading Application on an Other Device. You may not
separate any individual component of the Software for use on another
device or computer, may not transfer it for use on another device or
computer or use it, or any portion of it, over a network, and may not
sell, rent, lease, lend, distribute, or sublicense or otherwise assign any
rights to the Software in whole or in part. Additional terms apply to
some of the Software, and will govern the use of such Software in the
event of a conflict with this Agreement. For more information on
additional terms that apply to Amazon Software, click here. For more
information on additional terms that apply to certain third party
Software, see the Legal section in the Settings menu of your Kindle or
the Notices section of your Reading Application.
Automatic Updates. In order to keep your Software up-to-date,
Amazon may automatically provide your Kindle or Other Device with
updates/upgrades to the Software.
No Reverse Engineering, Decompilation, Disassembly, or
Circumvention. You may not modify, reverse engineer, decompile, or
disassemble the Kindle or the Software, whether in whole or in part,
create any derivative works from or of the Software, or bypass, modify,
defeat, or tamper with or circumvent any of the functions or protections
of the Kindle or Software or any mechanisms operatively linked to the
Software, for example, by augmenting or substituting any digital rights
management functionality of the Kindle or Software.

of such termination, you must cease all use of the Software, and
Amazon may immediately revoke your access to the Service or to

Disclaimer of Warranties. USE OF THE SERVICE, KINDLE, KINDLE
STORE, DIGITAL CONTENT, AND SOFTWARE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK.
EXCEPT FOR THE ONE-YEAR LIMITED KINDLE WARRANTY, NO ORAL OR
WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY AMAZON OR AN
AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF AMAZON CREATES A WARRANTY,
AND THE SERVICE, KINDLE, KINDLE STORE, DIGITAL CONTENT, AND
SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, AND AMAZON, ITS SUPPLIERS, ITS
LICENSORS, AND THE OTHER CONTENT PROVIDERS DISCLAIM ALL
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, SUCH AS THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR

OTHER CLAIM, IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR
THE KINDLE. THE LAWS OF CERTAIN JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW
THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE
ABOVE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND
YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.
Governing Law. The laws of the state of Washington, U.S.A., without
regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern this Agreement and
any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and Amazon.
Disputes. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the
Kindle, Reading Applications or Kindle Store, or the goods or services
sold or distributed by Amazon or through the Kindle, Reading
Applications or Kindle Store, will be resolved by binding arbitration,
rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims
court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal
arbitration law apply to this agreement.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an
arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an
individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including
injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow
the terms of this License Agreement and Terms of Use as a court would.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting
arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent
Corporation Service Company, 300 Deschutes Way SW, Suite 304,
Tumwater, WA 98051. The arbitration will be conducted by the
American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, including the
AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The
AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.
Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed
by the AAA's rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less
than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous.
Likewise, Amazon will not to seek attorneys fees and costs in arbitration
unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may
choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on
written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at
another mutually agreed location.
You and Amazon each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings
will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class,
consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim
proceeds in court rather than in arbitration you and Amazon each waive
any right to a jury trial. You and Amazon also both agree that you or we
may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of
intellectual property rights.
U.S. Government Rights. The Software, Service, and Digital Content
are provided to the U.S. Government as "commercial items,"
"commercial computer software," "commercial computer software
documentation," and "technical data," as defined in the U.S. Federal
Acquisition Regulation and the U.S. Defense Federal Acquisition
Regulation Supplement, with the same rights and restrictions
customarily provided to end users.
Complete Agreement and Severability. Except for any additional
terms that apply to the Software, this is the entire agreement between
us and you regarding the Kindle, Digital Content, Software, and Service
and supersedes all prior understandings regarding such subject matter.
If any term or condition of this 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.
Amendment. We may amend any of the terms of this Agreement in
our sole discretion by posting the revised terms on the Kindle Store or
the Amazon.com website. Your continued use of the Kindle, Digital
Content, Service, or Software after the effective date of any such
amendment constitutes your agreement to be bound by such
amendment.
