Your Content

Any and all Content that you perform, record, upload, store, transmit, submit, exchange or make available to or via the Platform or that you provide to JamKazam by any means, including via email (hereinafter “Your Content”) is generated, owned and controlled solely by you, and not by JamKazam.

JamKazam does not claim any ownership rights in Your Content, and you hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that Your Content remains your sole responsibility. You shall be solely responsible for keeping a duplicate copy of all Your Content, and JamKazam accepts no responsibility or liability for the loss or deletion of Your Content.

Without prejudice to the conditions set forth in Your Use of the Platform you must not perform, record, upload, store, distribute, send, transmit, display, make available or otherwise communicate to the public any Content to which you do not hold the necessary rights. In particular, any unauthorized use of copyright protected material within Your Content (including by way of reproduction, distribution, modification, adaptation, public display, public performance, preparation of derivative works, making available or otherwise communicating to the public via the Platform) may constitute an infringement of third party rights and is strictly prohibited. Any such infringements may result in termination of your access to the Platform as described in the Repeat Infringers section below, and may also result in civil litigation or criminal prosecution by or on behalf of the relevant rights holder.

Grant of License

By performing, recording, uploading, posting, or otherwise transmitting Your Content to the Platform or otherwise providing any of Your Content to JamKazam, you initiate an automated system to process any such Content, including but not limited to audio, graphic, and textual Content, and direct JamKazam to store Your Content on our servers, from where you may control and authorize the use, reproduction, transmission, distribution, public display, public performance, making available and other communication to the public of Your Content on the Platform and elsewhere using the Services. To the extent it is necessary in order for JamKazam to provide you with any of the aforementioned hosting services, to undertake any of the tasks set forth in these Terms and/or to enable your use of the Platform, you hereby grant to JamKazam a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, sublicensable, transferable, royalty-free and fully paid license to use, copy, repost, transmit or otherwise distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, adapt, prepare derivative works of, compile, make available and otherwise communicate to the public, Your Content when operating the Platform.

By performing, recording, uploading, posting, or otherwise transmitting Your Content to the Platform, you also grant a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid up license to other users of the Platform, and to operators and users of any other websites, apps and/or platforms to which Your Content has been shared or embedded using the Services (“Linked Services”), to use, copy, repost, transmit or otherwise distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, adapt, prepare derivative works of, compile, make available and otherwise communicate to the public, Your Content utilizing the features of the Platform from time to time, and within the parameters set by you using the Platform. You can limit and restrict the availability of certain of Your Content to other users of the Platform, and to users of Linked Services, at any time using the settings available in the account features of the Website and Apps, subject to the provisions of the Disclaimer section below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in these Terms grants any rights to any other user of the Platform with respect to any proprietary name, logo, trademark or service mark uploaded by you as part of Your Content (for example, your profile picture) (“Marks”), other than the right to reproduce, publicly display, make available and otherwise communicate to the public those Marks, automatically and without alteration, as part of the act of reposting Content with which you have associated those Marks.

The licenses granted in this section are granted separately with respect to each item of Your Content that you upload to the Platform. Licenses with respect to audio Content, and any images or text within your account, will (subject to the following paragraph of these Terms) terminate automatically when you remove such Content from your account. Licenses with respect to comments or other contributions that you make on the Platform will be perpetual and irrevocable, and will continue notwithstanding any termination of your account. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, you hereby acknowledge that any of Your Content that was created and stored on the Platform in conjunction with other users of the Platform, including but not limited to sessions and recordings, may be maintained on the Platform and stored on JamKazam’s servers until and unless all other users who participated in the creation of such Content also take action to remove such Content from their accounts.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you hereby acknowledge and agree that once Your Content is distributed to a Linked Service, JamKazam is not obligated to ensure the deletion of Your Content from any servers or systems operated by the operators of any Linked Service, or to require that any user of the Platform or any Linked Service deletes any item of Your Content.

Where you repost another user’s Content, or include another user’s Content in a set, you acquire no ownership rights whatsoever in that Content. Subject to the rights expressly granted in this section, all rights in Content are reserved to the relevant Uploader.

You hereby waive any and all moral rights in and to Your Content in connection with JamKazam’s and other users’ use of Your Content as authorized by you.

Limitation of Liability

TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL JAMKAZAM OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR PERSONAL INJURY, OR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PLATFORM, HOWEVER CAUSED, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF JAMKAZAM HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY, OR OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN NO EVENT WILL JAMKAZAM’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES (OTHER THAN AS MAY BE REQUIRED OTHERWISE BY APPLICABLE LAW IN CASES INVOLVING PERSONAL INJURY) EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FIFTY DOLLARS ($50.00). THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN TYPES OF DAMAGES OR LIABILITIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, BUT IN SUCH A CASE THE FOREGOING WILL BE APPLIED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT ENFORCEABLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold JamKazam, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, licensors, successors, and assigns harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and accounting fees, arising out of or in any way connected to (a) your access, use, or misuse of the Platform, or Materials, (b) your violation of these Terms, or (c) any infringement or misappropriation of any intellectual property right or other right of any person or entity by you or any other user of your user account. JamKazam will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action or proceeding for which it seeks an indemnification from you upon becoming aware of it, but if JamKazam is unable to communicate with you in a timely manner because of an inactive e-mail address for you, your indemnification obligation will continue notwithstanding JamKazam’s inability to contact you in a timely manner.

Data Protection, Privacy and Cookies

All personal data that you provide to us in connection with your use of the Platform is collected, stored, used and disclosed by JamKazam in accordance with our  Privacy Policy. In addition, in common with most online services, we use cookies to help us understand how people are using the Platform, so that we can continue to improve the service we offer. Our use of cookies, and how to disable cookies, is explained in our Cookies Policy. By accepting these Terms and using the Platform, you also accept the terms of the Privacy Policy and our Cookies Policy.

Use of JamKazam Widgets

The Platform may include access to embeddable JamKazam services (“Widgets”) for incorporation into users’ own sites, third party sites or social media profiles, whether or not a Linked Service. This functionality is provided to enable Uploaders to put their Content wherever they wish, and to enable other users of the Platform to share and distribute Content within the parameters set by the Uploader.

You may not, without the prior written consent of JamKazam, use the Widgets in such a way that you aggregate Content from the Platform into a separate destination that replicates substantially the offering of the Website, or comprises a content service of which Content from the Platform forms a material part. Similarly, you may not, without the prior written consent of JamKazam, use the Widgets to embed Content into any website or other destination dedicated to a particular artist (except where the relevant Content is Your Content and you are the person or are authorized to represent the person to whom the site or destination is dedicated), or to a particular genre. You may not use the Widgets in any way that suggests that JamKazam or any artist, audio creator or other third party endorses or supports your website, or your use of the Widgets. The foregoing shall apply whether such use is commercial or non-commercial.

JamKazam reserves the right to block your use of the Widgets at any time and for any reason in its sole discretion.

Premium Accounts

Certain features of the Platform are only available to registered users who subscribe for a paid premium account (“Premium Account”).

The purchase of a Premium Account subscription is subject to additional terms, which you will find here. These terms include, among other things, terms relating to payment, the conclusion and renewal of your subscription contract, your right of cancellation during the first 14 days of your subscription, and certain technical usage limitations.

These additional terms are applicable to Premium Account users in addition to these general Terms.

Changes to the Platform, Accounts and Pricing

JamKazam reserves the right at any time and for any reason to suspend, discontinue, terminate or cease providing access to the Platform or any part thereof, temporarily or permanently, and whether in its entirety or with respect to individual territories only. In the case of any temporary or permanent suspension, discontinuation, termination or cessation of access, JamKazam shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify registered users of such decision in advance. In addition, you acknowledge that, while JamKazam has undertaken to provide accurate information via the Platform, it is not comprehensive, and JamKazam makes no commitment to update the information at any particular time, and the information on the Platform may be out of date. Information on the Platform may also be changed at any time without notice. As a result, the information may not be accurate, up to date or applicable to the circumstances of any particular case. Any decisions you make based on information contained in the Platform are solely your responsibility.

You hereby agree that JamKazam and its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, employees, agents, directors, officers and shareholders shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any changes or modifications to the Website, Apps and/or any Services that JamKazam may wish to make from time to time, or for any decision to suspend, discontinue or terminate the Website, Apps, or Services or any part or parts thereof, or your possibility to use or access the same from or within any territory or territories.

JamKazam may change the features of any type of account, may withdraw or introduce new features, products or types of account at any time and for any reason, and may change the prices charged for any of its Premium Accounts from time to time. In the event of any increase in the price or material reduction in the features of any Premium Account to which you have subscribed, such change(s) will be communicated to you and will only take effect with respect to any subsequent renewal of your subscription. In all other cases, where JamKazam proposes to make changes to any type of account to which you subscribe (Premium Account or otherwise), and these changes are material and to your disadvantage, JamKazam will notify you of the proposed changes by sending a message to your JamKazam account and/or an email to the then current email address that we have for your account four (4) weeks in advance or such changes. You will have no obligation to continue using the Platform following any such notification, but if you do not terminate your account as described in the Termination section below during such four (4) week period, your continued use of your account after the end of that four (4) week period will constitute your acceptance of the changes to your account.

Termination

These Terms are effective as to you and your use of the Platform until terminated by you or JamKazam. Your rights under these Terms will terminate automatically without notice from JamKazam if you fail to comply with any term(s) of these Terms (including by violating any license restriction provided herein). You may terminate these Terms (as to you only) by deleting your account and ceasing use of the Platform. Upon any such termination of these Terms, you must immediately cease all use of the Platform. You will not be able to use the Platform without re-registering. You may not re-register if you are prohibited from re-registering by these Terms.

If you have a Premium Account and terminate before the end of your subscription, or if your account is otherwise suspended or terminated by JamKazam, we are unable to offer any refund for any unexpired period of your subscription. If you have purchased JamTracks licenses and terminate this these Terms pursuant to this section, or if your account is suspended or terminated by JamKazam, we will not offer any refund on your JamTracks purchases.

Once your account has been terminated, Your Content residing in your account, or pertaining to activity from your account will be irretrievably deleted by JamKazam, except to the extent that we are obliged or permitted to retain such content, data or information for a certain period of time in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and/or to protect our legitimate business interests (or if we are not required to delete such Content, as described herein, such as when other users beside you own rights in or have contributed to Your Content). You are advised to save or back up any material that you have uploaded to your account before terminating your account, as JamKazam assumes no liability for any material that is irretrievably deleted following any termination of your account. JamKazam is not able to provide you with any .csv or other similar file of data relating to activity associated with your account, whether before or after termination or cancellation. This data is provided and is accessible only for viewing via your account page on the Website and Apps for as long as your account is active.

Assignment to Third Parties

You may not assign these Terms or the rights and duties hereunder, in whole or in part, to any third party without the prior written consent of JamKazam.

Dispute Resolution

  1. Mandatory Arbitration. Please read this carefully. It affects your rights. YOU AND JAMKAZAM AND EACH OF OUR RESPECTIVE CORPORATE PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PREDECESSORS IN INTEREST, SUCCESSORS, PERMITTED ASSIGNS, AND ANY OTHER PARTIES ON WHOSE BEHALF YOU ARE ACCESSING THE PLATFORM AGREE TO ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR MATTERS THAT MAY BE TAKEN TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT), AS THE EXCLUSIVE FORM OF DISPUTE RESOLUTION EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR BELOW, FOR ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE PLATFORM. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Please visit www.adr.org for more information about arbitration.
    1. Commencing Arbitration. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written notice of intent to arbitrate (a “Notice”), or, in the absence of a mailing address provided by you to JamKazam, to you via any other method available to JamKazam, including via e-mail. The Notice to JamKazam should be addressed to JamKazam, Inc., Attn: Chief Operating Officer, 3924 Knollwood Drive,, Austin TX 78731 (the “Arbitration Notice Address”). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the Demand or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). If you and JamKazam do not reach an agreement to resolve the Demand within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or JamKazam may commence an arbitration proceeding as set forth below or file a claim in small claims court. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (THE “Rules”), AS MODIFIED BY THIS AGREEMENT. The Rules and AAA forms are available online at www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee to commence an arbitration against JamKazam, then JamKazam will promptly reimburse you for your confirmed payment of the filing fee upon JamKazam’s receipt of Notice at the Arbitration Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration along with a receipt evidencing payment of the filing fee; provided, however, that if your Demand is equal to or greater than $1,000 or was filed in bad faith, you, not JamKazam, are solely responsible for the payment of the filing fee.
    2. Arbitration Proceeding. The arbitration will be conducted in English. A single independent and impartial arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to the Rules, as modified herein. You and JamKazam agree to comply with the following rules, which are intended to streamline the dispute resolution process and reduce the costs and burdens on the parties: (A) the arbitration will be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner to be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (B) the arbitration will not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the parties; and (C) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
    3. No Class Actions. YOU AND JAMKAZAM AGREE THAT YOU AND JAMKAZAM MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. FURTHER, YOU AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND THAT IF THIS SPECIFIC PROVISO IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION SECTION WILL BE NULL AND VOID.
    4. Decision of the Arbitrator. Barring extraordinary circumstances, the arbitrator will issue his or her decision within 120 days from the date the arbitrator is appointed. The arbitrator may extend this time limit for an additional 30 days in the interests of justice. All arbitration proceedings will be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto will be permanently sealed, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of the arbitration award. The award of the arbitrator shall be in writing and will include a statement setting forth the reasons for the disposition of any claim. The arbitrator will apply the laws of the State of Texas in conducting the arbitration. You acknowledge that these Terms and your use of the Platform evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. The United States Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings pursuant to the Mandatory Arbitration clause in these Terms.
  2. Equitable Relief. The foregoing provisions of this Dispute Resolution section do not apply to any claim in which either party seeks equitable relief to protect such party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, or patents. You acknowledge that, in the event of a breach of these Terms by JamKazam or any third party, the damage or harm, if any, caused to you will not entitle you to seek injunctive or other equitable relief against JamKazam, and your only remedy will be for monetary damages, subject to the limitations of liability set forth in these Terms.
  3. Claims.You and JamKazam agree that, notwithstanding any other rights the party may have under law or equity, any cause of action arising out of or related to these Terms or the Platform, excluding a claim for indemnification, must commence within one year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
  4. Improperly Filed Claims. All claims you bring against JamKazam must be resolved in accordance with this Dispute Resolution section. All claims filed or brought contrary to this Dispute Resolution section will be considered improperly filed. Should you file a claim contrary to this Dispute Resolution section, JamKazam may recover attorneys’ fees and costs up to $5,000, provided that JamKazam has notified you in writing of the improperly filed claim, and you have failed to promptly withdraw the claim.
  5. Modifications. In the event that JamKazam makes any future change to the Mandatory Arbitration provision above (other than a change to JamKazam’s Arbitration Notice Address), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the change to JamKazam’s Arbitration Notice Address, in which case your account with JamKazam and your license to use the Platform shall terminate immediately, and this Dispute Resolution provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive the termination of these Terms.
  6. Enforceability. If the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this section will be null and void and, in such case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in the "Governing Law" section below will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
