Roku Website Terms of Use

Legal Rights & Agreement Rules · Context

These terms govern access to and use of the Roku website; using the site means accepting them

Roku Inc. and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates operate the Roku website and any associated sites of Roku, and these terms govern your access and use of them. The document states that by accessing or using the Roku website — and the content, products and services available on the site — you are accepting these terms, and that if you do not agree with them you do not have the right to access or use the Roku website. Acceptance is therefore tied to use rather than to a separate signature or click.

Roku Website Terms of Use

These terms govern your access and use of the Roku website and any associated sites of Roku, which are operated by Roku Inc. and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates. By accessing or using the Roku website, as well as the content, products, and services available on the site, you are accepting these terms. If you do not agree with these terms, you do not have the right to access or use the Roku website.

Qualifications & exceptions

• The governed objects are the Roku website and any associated sites of Roku, together with the content, products and services available on the site.
• The operator is named as Roku Inc. and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates, without listing which entities.
• Acceptance arises from accessing or using the site, not only from agreeing expressly.

Not stated here

• The document does not name the subsidiaries or affiliates whose sites count as associated sites.

Cross-references

• qualified by (model-proposed): Continued use after changes take effect counts as accepting the revised terms — Acceptance by using the site also covers later versions: once amended terms take effect, continued use is acceptance of them, so the original acceptance mechanism is not limited to the October 17, 2020 text.

Total liability is capped at the price paid for website purchases or 50 US dollars, whichever is more

Some jurisdictions do not allow these warranty and liability exclusions

The document states that some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, or the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, and that because of this the exclusions and limitations set out above may not apply to you.

Supporting quotations

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so the exclusions and limitations above may not apply to you.

Qualifications & exceptions

• The qualification is framed by jurisdiction rather than by user choice.
• It covers both warranty exclusions and exclusions or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages.
• Its effect is that the exclusions and limitations may not apply, not that they are void everywhere.

Not stated here

• This document does not name the jurisdictions concerned.

Cross-references

• exception to (model-proposed): The website and its services are provided as is, with warranties disclaimed where the law allows — The jurisdiction clause is the document's own carve-out from the warranty disclaimers: where a jurisdiction does not allow excluding certain warranties, those exclusions may not apply to you. The disclaimer card therefore cannot be read as applying everywhere.
• exception to (model-proposed): Indirect and punitive damages are excluded where the law permits — The same clause expressly names exclusions or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages, which is the category the damages-exclusion card covers, so that card applies only where the law permits it.
• exception to (model-proposed): Total liability is capped at the price paid for website purchases or 50 US dollars, whichever is more — The cap sits among the limitations the jurisdiction clause refers back to, and is itself expressed as applying only to the extent permitted by law, so it may not apply in every jurisdiction.

Claims must be arbitrated individually, subject to opt-outs set out elsewhere

All claims arising out of or relating to your Roku account or any Roku product or service are to be resolved exclusively through arbitration, according to the linked Dispute Resolution Terms, unless you opted out or another exception applies. Both sides agree that claims may only be conducted on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action.

All claims arising out of or relating to your Roku account or any Roku product or service will be resolved exclusively through arbitration, according to these Dispute Resolution Terms, unless you opted out or another exception applies.

We both agree that all claims may only be conducted on an individual basis (and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action).

Qualifications & exceptions

• The arbitration requirement covers claims arising out of or relating to your Roku account or any Roku product or service, not only disputes about these website terms.
• It is subject to an opt-out or another exception, without those exceptions being listed here.
• Claims may proceed only on an individual basis, excluding class, consolidated and representative actions.
• The procedure itself is in the linked Dispute Resolution Terms, not in this document.

Not stated here

• The Dispute Resolution Terms text is not supplied here, so how arbitration is initiated, who pays and what the opt-out route requires is not established by this document.

Cross-references

• contrast (model-proposed): If a claim reaches court, venue is federal or state court in Northern California — The two provisions pull in opposite directions and coexist only because of their wording: claims are to be resolved exclusively through arbitration, yet the document also names exclusive court jurisdiction and venue for the case where a claim proceeds in court rather than arbitration. Neither card is stated to override the other, and the conditions for a claim reaching court are not set out here.

Continued use after changes take effect counts as accepting the revised terms

Your use of the Roku website after changes to these terms go into effect will constitute your acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree to the new terms, you may not be able to continue using your product with your Roku account.

Supporting quotations

Your use after the changes go into effect will constitute your acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree to the new terms, you may not be able to continue using your product with your Roku account.

Qualifications & exceptions

• Acceptance arises from use after the changes go into effect, so it is not limited to expressly agreeing to a revised version.
• The stated consequence of disagreement is possible loss of continued use of your product with your Roku account, rather than a stated right to terminate or to keep using older terms.

Not stated here

• This document does not describe any way to reject amended terms while keeping access, and does not supply any later version.

Cross-references

• qualifies (model-proposed): These terms govern access to and use of the Roku website; using the site means accepting them — Acceptance by using the site also covers later versions: once amended terms take effect, continued use is acceptance of them, so the original acceptance mechanism is not limited to the October 17, 2020 text.
