This Cloud Application Terms of Service and End User License Agreement ("EULA") is a legal and binding agreement between you and Shure Incorporated ("Shure") for Shure cloud applications (the "Software"). THIS AGREEMENT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN COURTS OR JURY TRIALS, AND LIMITS THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE.
Your access to and use of the Software is governed by this EULA. Please read this EULA carefully and make sure that you fully understand it and agree to it. Do not access or use the Software unless you accept and agree to all terms and conditions of this EULA. If you reject this EULA, do not sign, do not click the box or button, and do not access or use the Software. BY: (I) ACCEPTING THIS EULA, signing this EULA, clicking on a box or button that is associated with "I accept the terms of the license agreement" or “Accept” or “OK” or “Continue” or similar language; OR (II) ACCESSING OR USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU: (A) ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS EULA; (B) REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO ENTER INTO A BINDING AGREEMENT; AND (C) ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS EULA. If you do not agree to these terms, immediately cease all access and use of the Software.
We reserve the right to modify this EULA at any time. The current version of this EULA will be made available within or through the Software. All changes will be effective immediately upon being made available and, by using the Software after changes are posted, you agree to those changes. Material changes will be clearly posted on or within the Software or otherwise communicated to you (e.g., via email).
References in this EULA to the pronoun "you" or "your" anywhere in this EULA refer to you, the end user of the Software and any accompanying Shure product with which the Software is designed to be used (“Product”). References in this EULA to "we" or "us" refer to Shure.
THE ARBITRATION CLAUSE IN SECTION 14.5 OF THIS EULA GOVERNS RESOLUTION OF CERTAIN DISPUTES AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
1. License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this EULA, Shure grants to you a revocable, limited, personal, non-transferable, and non-exclusive license to access and use the Software on a computer or mobile device owned or otherwise controlled by you that satisfies all system requirements applicable to the Software. Your use of the Software must at all times be in strict accordance with the terms and conditions of this EULA.

The Updates shall be considered Software and shall be governed by the terms of this EULA unless separate license terms are provided with such updates or supplements, in which case, such terms shall govern. We may also determine from time to time, in our discretion, that to provide you with new Updates, you will need to review this EULA (as such may be amended by us in our discretion) again and accept it again, before you are permitted to access or use any such Updates. If you do not agree to the new terms required to access and use any Update, then this EULA, and the rights granted to you herein with respect to the Software, shall automatically terminate.

Neither Shure nor any of its employees or representatives accepts or considers unsolicited ideas, including ideas for new or improved inventions, products, or technologies, product enhancements, processes, materials, marketing plans, or new product names. Please do not send any original creative artwork, suggestions, or other works. The sole purpose of this policy regarding unsolicited ideas is to avoid potential misunderstandings or disputes when Shure's products or marketing strategies might seem similar to ideas submitted to Shure. So, please do not send your unsolicited ideas to Shure or anyone at Shure. If, despite Shure’s request that you not send Shure your ideas, you still send them, then regardless of what your communication to Shure says, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the following terms shall apply to your idea submission:
You agree that: (1) your ideas will automatically become the property of Shure, without compensation to you, and (2) Shure can use the ideas for any purpose and in any way (including disclosing them to others) without obligation to you.
Shure does, however, welcome your feedback regarding many areas of Shure's existing business. If you want to send Shure your feedback, Shure requests that you send it using the form found at feedback@shure.com. Please provide only specific feedback on Shure's existing products or marketing strategies. Do not include any unsolicited ideas described above. Shure shall be free to use your feedback on an unrestricted basis, without confidentiality or other obligation.
15. License Term; Termination of License Term; Suspension. The term of this EULA commences when you access or use the Software or otherwise acknowledge your acceptance of this EULA and will continue in effect until terminated by you or Shure as set forth in this Section 15 (the “License Term”) or other applicable provisions of this EULA. In the event that you breach or otherwise fail to comply with any term or condition of this EULA, Shure may, in addition to and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies, at its option and discretion terminate this EULA without any obligation to provide notice. Upon expiration or termination of this EULA, your right to access and use the Software and Documentation and any other license rights under this EULA will cease, and you will cease all access and use of the Software and Documentation. Termination will not limit any of Shure’s rights or remedies at law or in equity.
16. General Terms
16.1 Transfer. You may not transfer the Software, Documentation, or any of your rights under this EULA to any third party.
16.2 Compliance with Laws and Export Controls. You will use the Software and Documentation in a lawful manner and in accordance with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, export control laws and local laws of the country or region in which you reside or in which you download or use the Software and Products. Features of the Software and Products may not be available in all languages or regions, some features may not be available or may vary based on age or region, and some may be restricted or unavailable from your service provider.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you agree that you may not export or re-export the Software in violation of any applicable laws or regulations including without limitation those of the United States of America, and/or the laws or regulation of the jurisdiction(s) in which the Software was obtained. In particular, but without limitation, the Software may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S. embargoed countries or (b) to any one on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List or any other restricted party lists. By using the Software, you represent and warrant that you are not located in any such country or on any such list. In addition to the foregoing, you agree that you will not use the Software for any purposes prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons.
16.3 U.S. Government License Rights. The Software and related Documentation are “Commercial Items,” as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. § 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" or "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. § 227.7201-1 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.
16.4 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. Except to the extent that the applicable laws and regulations of your jurisdiction mandate otherwise, this EULA shall be governed by, construed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Illinois, United States of America, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles. The parties exclude the application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, without implication that such Convention otherwise applies. In the event that any cause of action is not subject to the Arbitration clause under Section 16.5 below, the exclusive forum for any disputes arising out of or relating to this EULA shall be an appropriate federal or state court in Cook County, Illinois and you hereby expressly waive your right to a jury trial and all venue, jurisdiction and choice of law challenges or defenses.
16.5 Arbitration. With the exception only of disputes related to the enforcement or validity of either your or Shure's intellectual property rights, all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of or relating to this EULA, breach of this EULA or any Software, Products, services or transactions related to this EULA, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration proceedings will be conducted in Chicago, Illinois and in the English language by a panel of three arbitrators. The arbitrators shall adopt and apply the provisions of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure relating to discovery so that each party shall allow and may obtain discovery of any matter not privileged which is relevant to the subject matter involved in the arbitration to the same extent as if such arbitration were a civil action pending in a United States District Court. Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTES SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 16.5, BOTH YOU AND SHURE ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE (OR PARTICIPATE IN AS A PARTY OR CLASS MEMBER) THOSE DISPUTES IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.
16.6 Severability. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision or portion of this EULA to be invalid or unenforceable, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of this EULA will continue in full force and effect.
16.7 Entire Agreement. This EULA constitutes the entire agreement between you and us with respect to your access or use of the Software and Documentation, and supersedes and replaces all prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter. The most recent version of this EULA, and any changes that we make to this EULA, will be posted on the Shure.com web site. You agree that your use of the Software and Documentation will be governed by the version of the EULA in effect at the time of use.
16.8 Waiver. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of either party, any right or any power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or power hereunder preclude further exercise of that or any other right hereunder.
