Cloud Terms of Use
Effective January 19, 2024
These Cloud Terms of Use ("Cloud Terms") form a legal and binding agreement between you and Shure Incorporated ("Shure") for the use of cloud-based applications and services provided by Shure (the "Services"). If you are accepting these Cloud Terms on behalf of another person, company or other legal entity, references to “you” also apply to their use of the Services. References in these Cloud Terms to "we" or "us" refer to Shure.
THESE CLOUD TERMS REQUIRE 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 Services is governed by these Cloud Terms. Please read these Cloud Terms carefully and make sure that you fully understand it and agree to it. Do not access or use the Services unless you accept and agree to all terms and conditions of these Cloud Terms. If you reject these Cloud Terms, do not sign, do not click the box or button, and do not access or use the Services.

If you are accepting these Cloud Terms on behalf of another person, company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have full authority to bind them to these terms. If you do not agree to these terms, immediately cease all access and use of the Services.
We reserve the right to modify these Cloud Terms at any time. The current version of these Cloud Terms will be made available at www.shure.com/en-US/meta/legal. All changes will be effective as of the date specified in these Cloud Terms, or if no date is specified, immediately upon being made available and, by using the Services after changes are effective, you agree to those changes. Material changes will be clearly posted on or within the Services or otherwise communicated to you (e.g., via email). These Cloud Terms do not apply to any software, firmware or other applications that are pre-installed on hardware, that are otherwise intended for download or installation, or that are otherwise provided under other Shure terms and conditions.
