Welcome to the terms and conditions ("Terms") for Amazon Prime. These Terms are between you and Amazon Services LLC and/or its affiliates ("Amazon.com" or "Us"), and govern our respective rights and obligations. The Terms, together with applicable terms and conditions related to any promotional offers provided to you for use with Prime, constitute the entire agreement between you and Amazon.com related to the Prime shipping membership program. Please note that your use of the Amazon.com Web site and Prime membership are also governed by our Conditions of Use and Privacy Notice, as well as all other applicable terms, conditions, limitations and requirements on the Amazon.com Web site, all of which (as changed over time) are incorporated into these Terms. If you register for membership, you accept these terms, conditions, limitations and requirements. Please read these Terms carefully.

Prime members are entitled to free Tow-Day shipping and per unit One-Day shipping on all eligible purchases. If you purchase a Prime membership, you may also invite up to family members living in your household (at the same address) to register for Prime membership at no extra cost. (Please note that any member under age 18 may use the Amazon.com Web site only with involvement of a parent or guardian). The purchaser can change and/or remove guests at any time. A guest's membership will automatically terminate if the purchaser of the membership ceases to be a member or removes the guest. Amazon Prime is not available for corporate accounts or for customers who purchase products for business or institutional use or for the purpose of resale.

This program is limited to certain products sold by Amazon.com on www.amazon.com that are shipped to continental United States addresses, excluding Alaska, Hawaii, P.O. boxes, APO/FPO and U.S. territories, possessions and protectorates. Though Two-Day and One-Day shipping benefits do not apply to these excluded addresses, members are entitled to free Standard shipping on eligible items shipped to P.O. boxes in the continental U.S. and APO/FPO addresses with U.S. zip codes. We may exclude products in our discretion, including, for example, oversize or heavy items, items regulated as hazardous materials, and other items with special shipping characteristics. Products are eligible for Prime only if designated on the website. Products sold by third parties, or through third-party areas such as Marketplace, Auctions and/or zShops, are NOT eligible for Prime.

You must have an Amazon.com account to register for and use Prime. We reserve the right to accept or refuse membership in our discretion. You may not transfer or assign your membership or these benefits, except as part of our family member guest program described above. Some special product, order, handling fees and/or taxes may still apply to eligible purchases. If only some items in your order are eligible for Prime, you will pay applicable shipping charges for the ineligible items. Changing or combining orders, or changing your shipping address, speed, or preferences might affect Prime eligibility. Please note:

• Standard and Expedited shipping are options we use to determine your estimated delivery date (these options do not reflect product availability or our estimated shipping date);
• We may ship the products by ground or air at our discretion (these options do not correspond to any carrier-branded shipping services);
• Next Day, Express and Same Day shipping usually apply across business days and Saturdays, unless otherwise specified. Our carriers usually do not pick-up or deliver packages on Sundays or holidays (though Amazon Prime members may be eligible for special and other shipping options on Amazon Prime eligible items);
• We do not guaranty delivery of products within the estimated transit time or by the estimated delivery date.

The membership fee for Prime is $79. This fee is non-refundable except as expressly set forth below. Taxes may apply on either or both of the membership fee and the reduced shipping charges for Prime. UNLESS YOU NOTIFY US BEFORE RENEWAL THAT YOU WANT TO CANCEL, YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR MEMBERSHIP WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW AND YOU AUTHORIZE US (WITHOUT NOTICE TO YOU) TO COLLECT THE THEN-APPLICABLE MEMBERSHIP FEE AND ANY TAXES USING ANY PAYMENT METHOD WE HAVE ON RECORD FOR YOU.

You can cancel your Amazon Prime membership and receive a refund of the membership fee if you or your registered guests have not made any eligible purchases.

We sometimes offer certain customers various trial or other promotional memberships, which are subject to these Terms except as otherwise stated in the promotional offers. Trial memberships cannot be canceled, but trial members can at any time (through Your Account) choose not to upgrade to regular annual membership at the end of the trial period.

We may in our discretion change these Terms, Amazon.com's general Conditions of Use and Privacy Notice, or any aspect of Prime membership, without notice to you. However, any increase in the membership fee will not apply until your membership is renewed. Also, if we increase the shipping charges for Prime, or decrease the number of family members who can be invited as guests, we will notify you by email at least 30 days before the new terms go into effect. If you cancel your membership before the effective date of these changes, we will give you a prorated refund of your membership fee based on the number of full months remaining in your membership period. This refund option does not apply to any other changes we may make. If any change is found invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that change is severable and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining changes or conditions. YOUR CONTINUED MEMBERSHIP AFTER WE CHANGE THESE TERMS CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGES. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ANY CHANGES, YOU MUST CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP.

We may terminate your membership at our discretion without notice to you. If we do so, we will give you a prorated refund based on the number of full months remaining in your Prime membership. However, we will not give any refund for termination related to your conduct that we determine, in our discretion, violates these Terms or any applicable law, involves fraud or misuse of this membership program, or is harmful to our interests or another user. Our failure to insist upon or enforce your strict compliance with each of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of any of our rights.

IN ADDITION TO OTHER LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS IN AMAZON.COM'S CONDITIONS OF USE, IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO PRIME. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, WILL NOT EXCEED THE LAST ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP FEE YOU PAID. THESE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY WILL APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW AND WILL SURVIVE CANCELLATION OR TERMINATION OF YOUR MEMBERSHIP. CERTAIN STATE LAWS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MIGHT HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.

Eligible products will be designated on the product page, in the order pipeline, or at check-out. The program is limited to products sold by Amazon.com. Gift certificates/cards are not eligible for expedited shipping under Amazon Prime. Some Amazon.com products are excluded, including, for example, oversize or heavy items, items regulated as hazardous materials, and other items with special shipping characteristics. Products sold by third parties, such as Toys "R" Us and Babies "R" Us, or through third-party areas such as, Marketplace, Auctions and/or zShops, are NOT eligible.

Inviting family members to share your Amazon Prime membership is easy. Simply log into "Your Account" and click on the link to "Your Amazon Prime Membership." There you will see a list of your current membership, the status of all members linked to your Amazon Prime membership, and options to add or remove members.

• To add a member: Enter the person's name, relationship, e-mail address and birthday in the appropriate fields and click "Invite." An invitation e-mail message automatically will be sent to the e-mail address you entered. Note that invited members will need to know the month and day of your birthday to accept your invitation.
• To remove a member: Click the "Remove" button next to the name of the person you wish to remove. An e-mail message automatically will be sent to the person you remove.

• Free Two-Day and per-unit One-Day shipping options apply only for shipments to continental U.S. addresses (excluding Alaska, Hawaii, P.O. boxes, APO/FPO and U.S. territories, possessions and protectorates). Free standard shipping is available for eligible items shipped to P.O. boxes in the continental United States (excluding Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. territories, possessions and protectorates) and APO/FPO addresses with U.S. zip codes.
• This program is not available for Corporate Accounts or for customers who purchase products for business or institutional use or for the purpose of resale.
• If only some items in your order are eligible for Amazon Prime you'll be charged applicable shipping fees for the ineligible items.
• Two-Day and One-Day shipping have no weekend pick-up or delivery and may require signature for items over $400.
• Items may be shipped using either ground or air shipping. These options do not correspond to any carrier-branded shipping services.
• Only a $79 annual membership fee to enjoy all these great benefits.

Our 1-month trial is completely FREE for you to enjoy. There's no obligation to continue your membership beyond the trial period - simply cancel your membership through Your Account at any time.

If you choose to continue your benefits after your Free Trial, simply do nothing and we will charge the $79 annual membership fee to your payment method on file so there's no interruption in benefits.

Yes, your membership is set up to automatically renew annually. You can use Your Account to choose not to renew or to update your preferred payment method for membership renewals. If the preferred method is unavailable (for example, a credit card has expired), for your convenience we will use another payment method we have on record for you. Your initial sign-up is an authorization for us to use the preferred or other available payment methods.

Amazon Prime works best when you use 1-Click Shopping. You'll see two members-only 1-Click buttons in the member stripe on the top of product detail pages of eligible items. One button instantly orders the item with Free Two-Day Shipping, and the other button orders the item with One-Day (Overnight) Shipping for just $3.99 per item.

To get the most out of Amazon Prime and 1-Click, please check your 1-Click settings:

• Is 1-Click turned on? Members-only shopping buttons will not appear if 1-Click is disabled.
• Is your default shipping address a P.O. Box? Make sure you provide a street address. We cannot use expedited carrier services for P.O. Box deliveries.
• Is your payment information current? You may want to update your default credit card number and expiration date.
• Is your default shipping method Two-Day? If you use the standard 1-Click button on the right-hand side of product detail pages, please verify the default shipping method for the shipping address. You will need to change it from Standard Shipping to Free Two-Day Shipping to take full advantage of your Amazon Prime benefits.

More information on using 1-Click is available on our Help pages.

If you prefer to use the Shopping Cart instead of 1-Click, simply place items in your Shopping Cart and proceed to checkout as usual. On the order summary page, you will see:

• Amazon Prime-eligible items are recognized and the shipping method defaults to Free Two-Day Shipping.
• The option to upgrade your shipment of eligible items to One-Day (Overnight) Shipping for $3.99 per item.
• Your shipping preferences default to "ship items as they become available" (at no additional cost to you) to ensure your items arrive as soon as possible.
