-Dropbox Terms of Service
-Posted: January 22, 2015
-
-Thanks for using Dropbox! These terms of service ("Terms") cover your use and
-access to the services, client software and websites ("Services") provided by
-Dropbox, Inc. Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use your
-information while our Acceptable Use Policy outlines your responsibilities when
-using our Services. By using our Services, you're agreeing to be bound by these
-Terms, and to review our Privacy and Acceptable Use policies. If you're using
-our Services for an organization, you're agreeing to these Terms on behalf of
-that organization.
-
-Your Stuff & Your Permissions
- When you use our Services, you provide us with things like your files,
- content, email messages, contacts and so on ("Your Stuff"). Your Stuff is
- yours. These Terms don't give us any rights to Your Stuff except for the
- limited rights that enable us to offer the Services.
- We need your permission to do things like hosting Your Stuff, backing it up,
- and sharing it when you ask us to. Our Services also provide you with
- features like photo thumbnails, document previews, email organization, easy
- sorting, editing, sharing and searching. These and other features may require
- our systems to access, store and scan Your Stuff. You give us permission to
- do those things, and this permission extends to trusted third parties we work
- with.
-
-Sharing Your Stuff
- Our Services let you share Your Stuff with others, so please think carefully
- about what you share.
-
-Your Responsibilities
- You're responsible for your conduct, Your Stuff and you must comply with our
- Acceptable Use Policy. Content in the Services may be protected by others'
- intellectual property rights. Please don't copy, upload, download or share
- content unless you have the right to do so.
- We may review your conduct and content for compliance with these Terms and
- our Acceptable Use Policy. With that said, we have no obligation to do so. We
- aren't responsible for the content people post and share via the Services.
- Please safeguard your password to the Services, make sure that others don't
- have access to it, and keep your account information current.
- Finally, our Services are not intended for and may not be used by people
- under the age of 13. By using our Services, you are representing to us that
- you're over 13.
-
-Software
- Some of our Services allow you to download client software ("Software") which
- may update automatically. So long as you comply with these Terms, we give you
- a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable, revocable license to use the
- Software, solely to access the Services. To the extent any component of the
- Software may be offered under an open source license, we'll make that license
- available to you and the provisions of that license may expressly override
- some of these Terms. Unless the following restrictions are prohibited by law,
- you agree not to reverse engineer or decompile the Services, attempt to do
- so, or assist anyone in doing so.
-
-Our Stuff
- The Services are protected by copyright, trademark, and other US and foreign
- laws. These Terms don't grant you any right, title or interest in the
- Services, others' content in the Services, Dropbox trademarks, logos and
- other brand features. We welcome feedback, but note that we may use comments
- or suggestions without any obligation to you.
-
-Copyright
- We respect the intellectual property of others and ask that you do too. We
- respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement if they comply with the
- law, and such notices should be reported using our DMCA Process. We reserve
- the right to delete or disable content alleged to be infringing and
- terminate accounts of repeat infringers. Our designated agent for notice of
- alleged copyright infringement on the Services is:
- Copyright Agent
- Dropbox, Inc.
- 185 Berry Street, Suite 400
- San Francisco, CA 94107
- copyright@dropbox.com
-
-Paid Accounts
- Billing. You can increase your storage space and add paid features to your
- account (turning your account into a "Paid Account"). We'll automatically
- bill you from the date you convert to a Paid Account and on each periodic
- renewal until cancellation. You're responsible for all applicable taxes, and
- we'll charge tax when required to do so.
- No Refunds. You may cancel your Dropbox Paid Account at any time but you
- won't be issued a refund unless it's legally required.
- Downgrades. Your Paid Account will remain in effect until it's cancelled or
- terminated under these Terms. If you don't pay for your Paid Account on time,
- we reserve the right to suspend it or reduce your storage to free space
- levels.
- Changes. We may change the fees in effect but will give you advance notice of
- these changes via a message to the email address associated with your
- account.
-
-Dropbox for Business
- Email address. If you sign up for a Dropbox account with an email address
- provisioned by your employer, your employer may be able to block your use of
- Dropbox until you transition to a Dropbox for Business account or you
- associate your Dropbox account with a personal email address.
- Using Dropbox for Business. If you join a Dropbox for Business account, you
- must use it in compliance with your employer's terms and policies. Please
- note that Dropbox for Business accounts are subject to your employer's
- control. Your administrators may be able to access, disclose, restrict, or
- remove information in or from your Dropbox for Business account. They may
- also be able to restrict or terminate your access to a Dropbox for Business
- account. If you convert an existing Dropbox account into a Dropbox for
- Business account, your administrators may prevent you from later
- disassociating your account from the Dropbox for Business account.
-
-Termination
- You're free to stop using our Services at any time. We also reserve the right
- to suspend or end the Services at any time at our discretion and without
- notice. For example, we may suspend or terminate your use of the Services if
- you're not complying with these Terms, or use the Services in a manner that
- would cause us legal liability, disrupt the Services or disrupt others' use
- of the Services. Except for Paid Accounts, we reserve the right to terminate
- and delete your account if you haven't accessed our Services for 12
- consecutive months. We'll of course provide you with notice via the email
- address associated with your account before we do so.
-
-Services "AS IS"
- We strive to provide great Services, but there are certain things that we
- can't guarantee. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DROPBOX AND ITS
- AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS MAKE NO WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR
- IMPLIED, ABOUT THE SERVICES. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS." WE ALSO
- DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
- AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. Some states don't allow the disclaimers in this
- paragraph, so they may not apply to you.
-
-Limitation of Liability
- TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL DROPBOX, ITS
- AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS OR DISTRIBUTORS BE LIABLE FOR (A) ANY INDIRECT,
- SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY LOSS
- OF USE, DATA, BUSINESS, OR PROFITS, REGARDLESS OF LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER OR
- NOT DROPBOX HAS BEEN WARNED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND EVEN IF A
- REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE; (B) AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS
- RELATING TO THE SERVICES MORE THAN THE GREATER OF $20 OR THE AMOUNTS PAID BY
- YOU TO DROPBOX FOR THE PAST 12 MONTHS OF THE SERVICES IN QUESTION. Some
- states don't allow the types of limitations in this paragraph, so they may
- not apply to you.
-
-Resolving Disputes
- Let's Try To Sort Things Out First. We want to address your concerns without
- needing a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against Dropbox, you agree
- to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting
- dispute-notice@dropbox.com. We'll try to resolve the dispute informally by
- contacting you via email. If a dispute is not resolved within 15 days of
- submission, you or Dropbox may bring a formal proceeding.
- We Both Agree To Arbitrate. You and Dropbox agree to resolve any claims
- relating to these Terms or the Services through final and binding
- arbitration, except as set forth under Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate
- below.
- Opt-out of Agreement to Arbitrate. You can decline this agreement to
- arbitrate by clicking here and submitting the opt-out form within 30 days of
- first accepting these Terms.
- Arbitration Procedures. The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will
- administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the
- Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration will
- be held in the United States county where you live or work, San Francisco
- (CA), or any other location we agree to.
- Arbitration Fees and Incentives. The AAA rules will govern payment of all
- arbitration fees. Dropbox will pay all arbitration fees for claims less than
- $75,000. If you receive an arbitration award that is more favorable than any
- offer we make to resolve the claim, we will pay you $1,000 in addition to the
- award. Dropbox will not seek its attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration
- unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.
- Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate. Either you or Dropbox may assert
- claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in San Francisco (CA) or any
- United States county where you live or work. Either party may bring a lawsuit
- solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the
- Services, or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark,
- trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in
- arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
- No Class Actions. You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual
- basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a
- class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class
- actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other
- arbitrations aren't allowed.
- Judicial forum for disputes. In the event that the agreement to arbitrate is
- found not to apply to you or your claim, you and Dropbox agree that any
- judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the
- federal or state courts of San Francisco County (CA). Both you and Dropbox
- consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there.
-
-Controlling Law
- These Terms will be governed by California law except for its conflicts of
- laws principles.
-
-Entire Agreement
- These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Dropbox with
- respect to the subject matter of these Terms, and supersede and replace any
- other prior or contemporaneous agreements, or terms and conditions applicable
- to the subject matter of these Terms. These Terms create no third party
- beneficiary rights.
-
-Waiver, Severability & Assignment
- Dropbox's failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do
- so later. If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions of
- the Terms will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be
- substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may not assign
- any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt will be void.
- Dropbox may assign its rights to any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to
- any successor in interest of any business associated with the Services.
-
-Modifications
- We may revise these Terms from time to time, and will always post the most
- current version on our website. If a revision meaningfully reduces your
- rights, we will notify you (by, for example, sending a message to the email
- address associated with your account, posting on our blog or on this page).
- By continuing to use or access the Services after the revisions come into
- effect, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms
