separate supplemental terms, you also hereby agree to the supplemental terms
applicable to users in each jurisdiction as outlined below, and in the event of
a conflict between the provisions of the Supplemental Terms – Jurisdiction-Specific that are relevant to your jurisdiction from
which you access or use the Services, and the rest of these Terms, the relevant
jurisdictions’ Supplemental Terms – Jurisdiction-Specific will supersede and control. If you do not
agree to these Terms, you must not access or use our Services.

are accessing or using the Services on behalf of a business or entity, then (a)
“you” and “your” includes you and that business or entity, (b) you represent and

Terms from that point onwards.
You
should print off or save a local copy of the Terms for your records.
3.
Changes to the Terms
We amend
these Terms from time to time, for instance when we update the functionality of
our Services, when we combine multiple apps or services operated by us or our
affiliates into a single combined service or app, or when there are regulatory
changes. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to generally notify all
users of any material changes to these Terms, such as through a notice on our
Platform, however, you should look at the Terms regularly to check for such
changes. We will also update the “Last
Updated” date at the top of these Terms, which reflect
the effective date of such Terms. Your continued access or use of the Services
after the date of the new Terms constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.
If you do not agree to the new Terms, you must stop accessing or using the
Services.

access or use some of our Services, you must create an account with us. When

other information you provide to us, to keep such information current and
complete.

important that you keep your account password confidential and that you do not
disclose it to any third party. If you know or suspect that any third party

agree that you are solely responsible (to us and to others) for the activity
that occurs under your account.
We
reserve the right to disable your user account at any time, including if you
have failed to comply with any of the provisions of these Terms, or if

Content
A. SOMERFUL
and Somerful Content
As
between you and SOMERFUL, all content, software, images, text, graphics,
illustrations, logos, patents, trademarks, service marks, copyrights,
photographs, audio, videos, music on and “look and
feel” of the Services, and all intellectual property
rights related thereto (the “Somerful Content”), are either owned or licensed by SOMERFUL, it being understood
that you or your licensors will own any User Content (as defined below) you
upload or transmit through the Services. Use of the Somerful
Content or materials on the Services for any purpose not expressly permitted by
these Terms is strictly prohibited. Such content may not be downloaded, copied,
reproduced, distributed, transmitted, broadcast, displayed, sold, licensed or
otherwise exploited for any purpose whatsoever without our or, where
applicable, our licensors’ prior written consent. We
and our licensors reserve all rights not expressly granted in and to their
content.
You
acknowledge and agree that we may generate revenues, increase goodwill or
otherwise increase our value from your use of the Services, including, by way
of example and not limitation, through the sale of advertising, sponsorships,
promotions, usage data and Gifts, and except as specifically permitted by us in
these Terms or in another agreement you enter into with us, you will have no
right to share in any such revenue, goodwill or value whatsoever. You further
acknowledge that, except as specifically permitted by us in these Terms or in
another agreement you enter into with us, you (i)
have no right to receive any income or other consideration from any User
Content (defined below) or your use of any musical works, sound recordings or
audiovisual clips made available to you on or through the Services, including
in any User Content created by you, and (ii) are prohibited from exercising any
rights to monetize or obtain consideration from any User Content within the
Services or on any third party service (e.g., you cannot claim User Content
that has been uploaded to a social media platform such as YouTube for
monetization).
Subject
to the terms and conditions of the Terms, you are hereby granted a
non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable,
worldwide license to access and use the Services, including to download the
Platform on a permitted device, and to access the Somerful Content
solely for your personal, non-commercial use through your use of the Services
and solely in compliance with these Terms. SOMERFUL reserves all rights not
expressly granted herein in the Services and the Somerful
Content. You acknowledge and agree that SOMERFUL may terminate this license at
any time for any reason or no reason.
NO
RIGHTS ARE LICENSED WITH RESPECT TO SOUND RECORDINGS AND THE MUSICAL WORKS
EMBODIED THEREIN THAT ARE MADE AVAILABLE FROM OR THROUGH THE SERVICE.
You
acknowledge and agree that when you view content provided by others on the
Services, you are doing so at your own risk. The content on our Services is
provided for general information only. It is not intended to amount to advice
on which you should rely. You must obtain professional or specialist advice
before taking, or refraining from, any action on the basis of
the content on our Services.
We make
no representations, warranties or guarantees, whether express or implied, that
any Somerful Content (including User Content) is
accurate, complete or up to date. Where our Services contain links to other
sites and resources provided by third parties, these links are provided for
your information only. We have no control over the contents of those sites or
resources. Such links should not be interpreted as approval by us of those
linked websites or information you may obtain from them. You acknowledge that
we have no obligation to pre-screen, monitor, review, or edit any content
posted by you and other users on the Services (including User Content).
B. User-Generated
Content
Users of
the Services may be permitted to upload, post or transmit (such as via a
stream) or otherwise make available content through the Services including,
without limitation, any text, photographs, user videos, sound recordings and
the musical works embodied therein, including videos that incorporate locally
stored sound recordings from your personal music library and ambient noise (“User Content”). Users of the Services may
also extract all or any portion of User Content created by another user to
produce additional User Content, including collaborative User Content with
other users, that combine and intersperse User Content generated by more than
one user. Users of the Services may also overlay music, graphics, stickers,
Virtual Items and other elements provided by SOMERFUL (“Somerful
Elements”) onto this User Content and transmit
this User Content through the Services. The information and materials in the
User Content, including User Content that includes Somerful
Elements, have not been verified or approved by us. The views expressed by
other users on the Services (including through use of the virtual gifts) do not
represent our views or values.
Whenever
you access or use a feature that allows you to upload or transmit User Content
through the Services (including via certain third party social media platforms
such as Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok), or to make contact with other
users of the Services, you must comply with the standards set out at “Your Access to and Use of Our Services”
above. You may also choose to upload or transmit your User Content, including
User Content that includes Somerful Elements, on
sites or platforms hosted by third parties. If you decide to do this, you must
comply with their content guidelines as well as with the standards set out at “Your Access to and Use of Our Services”
above.
You
warrant that any such contribution does comply with those standards, and you
will be liable to us and indemnify us for any breach of that warranty. This
means you will be responsible for any loss or damage we suffer as a result of your breach of warranty.
Any User
Content will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary. You must not
post any User Content on or through the Services or transmit to us any User
Content that you consider to be confidential or proprietary. When you submit
User Content through the Services, you agree and represent that you own that
User Content, or you have received all necessary permissions, clearances from,
or are authorised by, the owner of any part of the
content to submit it to the Services, to transmit it from the Services to other
third party platforms, and/or adopt any third party content.
If you
only own the rights in and to a sound recording, but not to the underlying
musical works embodied in such sound recordings, then you must not post such
sound recordings to the Services unless you have all permissions, clearances
from, or are authorized by, the owner of any part of the content to submit it
to the Services
You or
the owner of your User Content still own the copyright in User Content sent to
us, but by submitting User Content via the Services, you hereby grant us an
unconditional irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully transferable,
perpetual worldwide license to use, modify, adapt, reproduce, make derivative
works of, publish and/or transmit, and/or distribute and to authorize other
users of the Services and other third-parties to view, access, use, download,
modify, adapt, reproduce, make derivative works of, publish and/or transmit
your User Content in any format and on any platform, either now known or
hereinafter invented.
You
further grant us a royalty-free license to use your user name,
image, voice, and likeness to identify you as the source of any of your User
Content.
For the
avoidance of doubt, the rights granted in the preceding paragraphs of this
Section include, but are not limited to, the right to reproduce sound
recordings (and make mechanical reproductions of the musical works embodied in
such sound recordings), and publicly perform and communicate to the public
sound recordings (and the musical works embodied therein), all on a
royalty-free basis. This means that you are granting us the right to use your
User Content without the obligation to pay royalties to any third party,
including, but not limited to, a sound recording copyright owner (e.g., a
record label), a musical work copyright owner (e.g., a music publisher), a
performing rights organization (e.g., ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, etc.) (a “PRO”), a sound recording PRO (e.g., SoundExchange), any unions or guilds, and engineers,
producers or other royalty participants involved in the creation of User
Content.
Specific
Rules for Musical Works and for Recording Artists. If you are a composer or
author of a musical work and are affiliated with a PRO, then you must notify
your PRO of the royalty-free license you grant through these Terms in your User
Content to us. You are solely responsible for ensuring your compliance with the
relevant PRO’s reporting obligations. If you have
assigned your rights to a music publisher, then you must obtain the consent of
such music publisher to grant the royalty-free license(s) set forth in these
Terms in your User Content or have such music publisher enter
into these Terms with us. Just because you authored a musical work
(e.g., wrote a song) does not mean you have the right to grant us the licenses
in these Terms. If you are a recording artist under contract with a record
label, then you are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the
Services is in compliance with any contractual
obligations you may have to your record label, including if you create any new
recordings through the Services that may be claimed by your label.
Through-To-The-Audience
Rights. All of the rights you grant in your User
Content in these Terms are provided on a through-to-the-audience basis, meaning
the owners or operators of third party services will
not have any separate liability to you or any other third party for User
Content posted or used on such third party service via
the Services.
Waiver
of Rights to User Content. By posting User Content to or through the Services,
you waive any rights to prior inspection or approval of any marketing or
promotional materials related to such User Content. You also waive any and all rights of privacy, publicity, or any other
rights of a similar nature in connection with your User Content, or any portion
thereof. To the extent any moral rights are not transferable or assignable, you
hereby waive and agree never to assert any and all
moral rights, or to support, maintain or permit any action based on any moral
rights that you may have in or with respect to any User Content you Post to or
through the Services.
We also
have the right to disclose your identity to any third party who is claiming
that any User Content posted or uploaded by you to our Services constitutes a
violation of their intellectual property rights, or of their right to privacy.
We, or
authorized third parties, reserve the right to cut, crop, edit or refuse to
publish, your content at our or their sole discretion. We have the right to
remove, disallow, block or delete any posting you make on our Services if, in
our opinion, your post does not comply with the content standards set out at “Your Access to and Use of Our Services”
above. In addition, we have the right – but not the
obligation – in our sole discretion to remove,
disallow, block or delete any User Content (i) that
we consider to violate these Terms, or (ii) in response to complaints from
other users or third parties, with or without notice and without any liability
to you. As a result, we recommend that you save copies of any User Content that
you post to the Services on your personal device(s) in the
event that you want to ensure that you have permanent access to copies
of such User Content. We do not guarantee the accuracy, integrity,
appropriateness or quality of any User Content, and under no circumstances will
we be liable in any way for any User Content.
You
control whether your User Content is made publicly available on the Services to
all other users of the Services or only available to people you approve. To
restrict access to your User Content, you should select the privacy setting
available within the Platform.
We
accept no liability in respect of any content submitted by users and published
by us or by authorized third parties.
If you
find inappropriate content that violates our Community
Guidelines or have
any other issues you'd like to raise, you can send us a report.
SOMERFUL
takes reasonable measures to expeditiously remove from our Services any
infringing material that we become aware of. It is SOMERFUL’s policy, in appropriate circumstances and at its discretion, to
disable or terminate the accounts of users of the Services who repeatedly
infringe copyrights or intellectual property rights of others.
While
our own staff is continually working to develop and evaluate our own product
ideas and features, we pride ourselves on paying close attention to the
interests, feedback, comments, and suggestions we receive from the user
community. If you choose to contribute by sending us or our employees any ideas
for products, services, features, modifications, enhancements, content,
refinements, technologies, content offerings (such as audio, visual, games, or
other types of content), promotions, strategies, or product/feature names, or
any related documentation, artwork, computer code, diagrams, or other materials
(collectively “Feedback”), then
regardless of what your accompanying communication may say, the following terms
will apply, so that future misunderstandings can be avoided. Accordingly, by
sending Feedback to us, you agree that:
i. SOMERFUL has no
obligation to review, consider, or implement your Feedback, or to return to you
all or part of any Feedback for any reason;
ii.
Feedback is provided on a non-confidential basis, and we are not under any
obligation to keep any Feedback you send confidential or to refrain from using
or disclosing it in any way; and
iii. You
irrevocably grant us perpetual and unlimited permission to reproduce,
distribute, create derivative works of, modify, publicly perform (including on
a through-to-the-audience basis), communicate to the public, make available,
publicly display, and otherwise use and exploit the Feedback and derivatives
thereof for any purpose and without restriction, free of charge and without
attribution of any kind, including by making, using, selling, offering for
sale, importing, and promoting commercial products and services that
incorporate or embody Feedback, whether in whole or in part, and whether as
provided or as modified.
8.
Indemnity
You
agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless SOMERFUL, its parents,
subsidiaries, and affiliates, and each of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents and advisors from any and all claims, liabilities, costs, and
expenses, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and expenses, arising out of a breach by you or any user of
your account of these Terms or arising out of a breach of your obligations,
representation and warranties under these Terms.
