This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
“If your primary payment method cannot be charged for any reason...you authorize Apple to attempt to charge your other eligible payment methods in order from top to bottom as they appear on your account settings payments page.”
“You agree that Apple has the right, without liability to you, to disclose any data and/or information to law enforcement authorities, government officials, and/or a third party, as Apple believes is reasonably necessary or appropriate to enforce and/or verify compliance...”
“If you fail, or Apple suspects that you have failed, to comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement, Apple may, without notice to you: (i) terminate this Agreement and/or your Apple Account...”
“Apple reserves the right at any time to modify this Agreement and to add new or additional terms or conditions on your use of the Services. Such modifications and additional terms and conditions will be effective immediately...”
“In no event shall Licensor's 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 two hundred and fifty dollars ($250.00).”
“Content may be removed from the Services and become unavailable for further download or access from Apple (for instance, because Apple loses its right from the Content provider to make it available).”
These terms govern how you use Apple Pay's Services and Content, limiting use to personal, noncommercial purposes. Key points that most affect you: your subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel them in your account settings; all transactions are final; if your primary payment method fails, Apple Pay can charge your other eligible payment methods in order without asking you again; and Apple Pay can change these terms at any time with immediate effect.
The Apple Media Services Terms establish the conditions under which Apple Pay provides its Services and Content to users, granting Apple Pay broad unilateral authority across several critical dimensions. Apple Pay reserves the right to modify the Agreement and add terms with immediate effect, to terminate a user's Apple Account without notice upon actual or suspected non-compliance, and to share any user data with law enforcement, government officials, or third parties at its discretion without liability. Users grant Apple Pay a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, nonexclusive license to use submitted materials for Services, marketing, and internal purposes; all transactions are established as final; and the Licensor's total liability to any user is capped at $250.00, except as applicable law may require in personal injury cases. Users are additionally required to indemnify Apple against claims arising from their use of or breach of the Agreement, and waive the right to sue or recover damages from Apple for enforcement decisions affecting their access.
As a user, you are bound immediately by any changes Apple Pay makes to these terms, with no notice period before they take effect. Your access to purchased content is not guaranteed — Apple Pay can remove content from its Services, making it unavailable for download or access. Your account can be terminated without notice if Apple suspects, even without confirmation, that you have not complied with the Agreement. Apple Pay can share any of your data with law enforcement, government officials, or third parties without liability when it deems this reasonably necessary. Your total recoverable damages from the Licensor are capped at $250.00, and you waive the right to sue Apple for decisions that remove your access to content or Services. To avoid unwanted recurring charges, you can cancel subscriptions at any time through the Manage Subscriptions section of your account settings.
