IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, PLEASE CLICK THE “I DO NOT ACCEPT” BUTTON; DO NOT THEN INSTALL, COPY, ACCESS OR MAKE ANY OTHER USE OF THE SOFTWARE.

 

If you do not accept all the terms of this Agreement, then Sling Media is unwilling to license the Software to you.

 

1.     Grant of License.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and your continued compliance therewith, Sling Media grants a limited license for you, as a single user, to use the executable form of the Installable Software on any iPad that you own or control, and only as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms of Service.  This license may not be transferred by you to any third party and is non-exclusive.

 

The license granted to you by Sling Media is solely for your personal, lawful, non-commercial use in connection with a Slingbox owned by you and connected to an audiovisual source that you are lawfully entitled to view. 

 

All websites, corporate names, service marks, trademarks, trade names, logos and domain names (collectively "Marks") of Sling Media are and shall remain the exclusive property of the Sling Media.  Nothing in this Agreement shall grant you the right or give you permission to use or reproduce any of these Marks.

 

Sling Media reserves all rights in the Software not expressly granted to you in this Agreement.  If Sling Media provides you with any update or upgrade to the Software (“Update”), your use of such Update will be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement or other terms and conditions provided by Sling Media that relate to such Update.

 

2.     Restrictions.

It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the relevant laws applicable to the content that you may access and view and the way in which you receive content through the Slingbox and to comply fully with such laws.

 

YOU AGREE THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE USED SOLELY FOR YOUR OWN PRIVATE AND PERSONAL PURPOSES, AND YOU WILL NOT PUBLICLY SHOW OR OTHERWISE MAKE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC OR ANY UNAUTHORIZED PERSON ANY CONTENT DELIVERED THROUGH THE SOFTWARE.  YOU WILL NOT ENCOURAGE OR INDUCE ANY USERS TO VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THEIR LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH SLING MEDIA, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION BY MAKING AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGY OR SERVICES DESIGNED TO FACILITATE SUCH VIOLATIONS.

 

Except as expressly specified in this Agreement, you may not:

 

 

You may only use the Software in connection with your personal Slingbox, and you may not use the Software to access or attempt to access another person’s Slingbox, nor may you use the Software for any illegal activity. 

 

You may not share your administrator password, user password, Slingbox Finder ID, SlingAccounts registration ID or similar identifier used in connection with the Software (each a “Password”) with any third party.  Similarly, you may not use any third party’s Password to access another person’s Slingbox.

 

The Installable Software, including but not limited to the source code and the specific design and structure of individual modules or programs, constitute or contain trade secrets of Sling Media and third parties.  You shall not disassemble, decompile, “hack” into, or otherwise reverse engineer the Installable Software, in whole or in part, or permit or authorize a third party to do so, except to the extent such restrictions are expressly prohibited by applicable law.

 

You are solely responsible for any data or mobile telecommunications charges incurred by you as a result of your use of the Software or your Slingbox, and you shall comply with the terms and conditions of any data, telecommunications, Internet, broadcast or broadband service provider in connection with your use of your Slingbox and the Software.

 

Some jurisdictions require that users obtain a television license to receive television programming.  You are solely responsible for obtaining and paying for such a license in addition to any cable, satellite or access fees that may be applicable, and you shall comply with the terms and conditions of your cable or satellite provider or television licensing authority.  Check with any television licensing authorities in your local jurisdiction for more information.

6.     Term and Termination of this Agreement.

This Agreement remains in force between you and Sling Media until terminated. 

 

You may terminate this Agreement at any time by destroying all copies of the Software in your possession or control and ceasing your use of your Slingbox.

 

This Agreement will automatically terminate without notice if you breach any term of this Agreement, in which case you must promptly destroy all copies of the Software in your possession or control.  If you breach this Agreement but then inform Sling Media promptly, Sling Media will normally give you an opportunity to put matters right within a reasonable time unless your breach is a serious misuse of the Software, which shall be assessed in Sling Media’s sole discretion.

 

7.     Disclaimer.

ALL SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS.”  YOU ASSUME THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, ACCURACE AND EFFECT OF THE SOFTARE.

 

SLING MEDIA AND ITS LICENSORS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE, TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY MANDATORY LAW.

 

The foregoing limitations will apply even if any warranty or remedy provided under this Agreement fails of its essential purpose.  Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.  This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary by jurisdiction.

 

In the event of any failure of the Software to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Software to you.  To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Software, and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be Sling Media’s responsibility.  As between Sling Media and Apple, you acknowledge that, in the event of any third party claim that the Software or your possession and use of that Software infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, Sling Media (not Apple) will be responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim.

 

For clarity, this Section 7 does not limit Sling Media’s standard warranty provided to you in writing in connection with your purchase of any Slingbox or other Sling Media product.

 

8.     Limitation of Liability.

SLING MEDIA’S AND ITS LICENSORS’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FROM ALL CAUSES OF ACTION AND UNDER ALL THEORIES OF LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED THE LIABILITY ARISING FROM MANDATORY LAW.

 

IF NO MANDATORY LAW APPLIES OR TO THE EXTENT MANDATORY LAW OTHERWISE PERMITS, SLING MEDIA’S AND ITS LICENSORS’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FROM ALL CAUSES OF ACTION AND UNDER ALL THEORIES OF LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO AND WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU FOR THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE.  IN NO SUCH EVENT WILL SLING MEDIA OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF USE, DATA, BUSINESS OR PROFITS) OR FOR THE COST OF PROCURING SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE SOFTWARE, WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM ANY CLAIM BASED UPON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR NOT SLING MEDIA OR ITS LICENSORS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE.  THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL SURVIVE AND APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY SPECIFIED IN THIS AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

 

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
