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
Audible's Conditions of Use govern access to its audiobook and audio content subscription service, including the terms under which digital content is licensed, subscription fees are charged, and accounts are managed. The agreement establishes that content purchased or accessed through Audible is licensed rather than sold, meaning Audible retains the right to restrict, modify, or revoke access to content under specified circumstances. Users are required to maintain an Amazon account as a condition of Audible service access, and the terms incorporate Amazon's broader Conditions of Use by reference.
This document governs consumer use of the Audible.com service and is structured as a terms of service agreement under U.S. law, incorporating by reference the Amazon Conditions of Use and requiring users to maintain an Amazon account as a condition of Audible service access. The agreement states that Audible grants users a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access digital audio content, that purchased content remains subject to ongoing license restrictions rather than constituting an ownership transfer, and that Audible reserves the right to modify or terminate the service and remove accessible content. The terms authorize Audible to modify these conditions at any time with notice via posting to the site, and continued use after modification constitutes acceptance, a mechanism that may interact with consumer protection frameworks in certain jurisdictions that require affirmative consent to material contract changes. The document engages the FTC Act with respect to unfair or deceptive trade practices, state consumer protection statutes particularly regarding auto-renewal and subscription cancellation rights, and CCPA with respect to California residents' data rights given Audible's operation as an Amazon subsidiary; applicable law in the EU, UK, and other jurisdictions may constrain how certain provisions apply to users in those regions, though the document is primarily structured for U.S. users.
