By downloading, installing, or using by any means the software applications provided by Spectrum including but not limited to either the software applications “SpectrumU TV App” and/or the “Spectrum Enterprise TV App,” (both of which are referred to herein as the “App”), you acknowledge that you have read this “Agreement” and agree to be bound by its terms and those comprising Spectrum’s Residential General Terms and Conditions of Service (available at https://www.spectrum.com/policies/residential-general-terms-and-conditions-of-service ) as well as the Spectrum Residential Video Services Agreement (available at https://www.spectrum.com/policies/residential-video-service-agreement, and together with the Spectrum Residential General Terms and conditions of Service referred to hereafter as the “Service Agreement”). You will be responsible for your use of the App and compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the Service Agreement (as defined herein).
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE SERVICE AGREEMENT CONTAINS (1) A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION, WHICH INCLUDES A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS; (2) A LIMITATION ON YOUR RIGHT TO BRING CLAIMS AGAINST SPECTRUM MORE THAN 1 YEAR AFTER THE RELEVANT EVENTS OCCURRED; AND (3) PROVISIONS FOR OPTING OUT OF ARBITRATION. THESE PROVISIONS AFFECT YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THESE TERMS WITH RESPECT TO ALL SERVICES. SEE THE APPLICABLE SECTIONS TO ARBITRATION OF THE SERVICE AGREEMENT FOR DETAILS ON THESE PROVISIONS.
If you do not understand or agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Service Agreement, you:

The App provides services to you as an end user at a facility such as educational institutions, hotels hospitals, etc. (each, a “facility”). App authentication can occur either by an auto detection of your facility’s credentials, confirming that you are behind your facility’s authorized network or through a sign on process where you log in using authorized credentials provided to you by your facility. In the event Spectrum’s network is unable to detect that you are using an authorized network or authorized credentials, you will not be able to access the App. If you are unable to access the App through your authorized credentials, you should contact your facility administrator.
Spectrum, in its sole discretion, shall determine which features and functionality of the Spectrum software application services to make available through the App, and you acknowledge and agree that Spectrum can change such availability at any time with no notice to you.
