Managed integrations is a feature of AWS IoT Device Management that allows you to create or access cloud-to-cloud connectors which link your AWS resources with one or more of your devices (“C2C Connectors”). Any C2C Connector you create is Your Content, and any C2C Connector created by another customer that you access is Third-Party Content. AWS does not create or manage any C2C Connectors.
You may share your C2C Connectors with other AWS customers. If you do, you authorize AWS as your service provider to list those C2C Connectors and related contact information on the AWS Console and on the AWS Site and you understand that other AWS customers may contact you. You are solely responsible for granting customers access to your C2C Connectors and for any terms governing another AWS customer’s access to your C2C Connectors. All such terms are solely between you and such other AWS customer. If you do not specify any such terms before granting access, you thereby grant such customer a non-exclusive license to access, use, copy, distribute or otherwise exploit such C2C Connector for any personal or business purposes.
If AWS makes available to you any contact information of any provider of a C2C Connector, you may only use this contact information to submit an inquiry about the applicable third party C2C Connector. You may not process, share, sell or license this contact information for marketing or any other purpose. Any terms, including any applicable privacy notices, governing your use of any third-party C2C Connector are solely between you and the third-party offering the C2C Connector.
