SHAZAM LICENCE TERMS AND CONDITIONS - APPLICABLE WORLDWIDE EXCEPT WHERE WE NOTIFY YOU OF SPECIFIC TERRITORIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS VIA YOUR DEVICE

These terms and conditions ("Terms") set out important information regarding the rights, obligations and the restrictions that may apply to you as a user ("User") when you access our website at www.shazam.com ("Website") and/ or access, use or download the Shazam digital application (also sometimes referred to under the name of ShazamiD) ("Application") and any services offered in conjunction with the Shazam digital application ("Services") as they are made available on various digital media devices, such as PDAs, cell phones, handheld devices or PCs, ("Devices"), and networks, such as those of mobile operators, internet service providers or cable operators ("Networks"). The Application is a digital application that facilitates the use of Services, which generally consist of a central audio music recognition service that provides songs and artist identification, also called tagging, and other related services such as artist bios, geographical tag charting, recommendation of similar music, etc. and, in some cases, access to related third party applications ("Third Party Applications") and websites ("Third Party Sites") that can be used in conjunction with the Application and/ or Services (for example, e-commerce providers, social networking sites, information and access feature providers). The Website, Application and the associated Services, where not specifically provided otherwise, are supplied by Shazam Entertainment Limited ("we", "us" and "our" as appropriate). We are a limited company incorporated in England and Wales. Our registered office is at: Charles House 4th Floor, Block F, 375 Kensington High Street London W14 8QH United Kingdom (registered number: 3998831). You can also contact us by phone: +44 (0) 207 471 3440, fax: +44 (0) 207 471 3447 and email: support@shazamteam.com. VAT number: 766118223.

These Terms may be accessed via the Application directly from your Device or on our Website at www.shazam.com/tc.

Any translations of these Terms are provided as a courtesy to you and the definitive text of these Terms is the English (UK) version. If you wish to use our Website, the Application and/ or the Services (collectively referred to as "Shazam") you must agree to be bound by these Terms, as set out below, and all and any applicable laws regarding your use of Shazam. You must also pay any charges for the Services which may be applicable.

IF ANY OF THESE TERMS ARE UNACCEPTABLE TO YOU OR IN THE EVENT THAT ANY FUTURE CHANGES TO THESE TERMS ARE UNACCEPTABLE TO YOU, DO NOT USE SHAZAM. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF SHAZAM (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE DOWNLOADING OF THE APPLICATION OR ANY APPLICATION UPGRADES AND/ OR USE OF THE SERVICES) NOW, OR FOLLOWING THE POSTING OF NOTICE OF ANY CHANGES IN THESE TERMS, WILL BE DEEMED ACCEPTANCE BY YOU OF THESE TERMS AND ANY SUCH CHANGES, OR MODIFICATIONS. YOU AGREE TO USE SHAZAM ONLY FOR PURPOSES THAT ARE LEGAL, PROPER AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS AND ANY LOCAL BINDING POLICIES OR GUIDELINES.

IMPORTANT: BY DOING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ACTS YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS:

• EXPRESSLY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS OF USE AT ANY TIME, FOR EXAMPLE UPON CLICKING "SET UP", "PROCEED" OR ANY OTHER CLEARLY INDICATED EQUIVALENT ACTIVATION PHRASE ON YOUR DEVICE; OR
• DOWNLOADING THE APPLICATION OR AN UPGRADE TO THE APPLICATION OFFERED FROM TIME TO TIME; OR
• USING SHAZAM ON YOUR DEVICE.

Please note:

1. In the event that you are or become a paying customer of any part of the Application and/ or Services or any other product part of the Shazam offering, we will provide to you relevant information regarding price, delivery procedure and cancellation options on a case by case basis, before completing the payment for your purchase. Any purchase will be effective upon the processing of your payment.
2. Once you start using Shazam, you hereby agree to waive any right to a limited period in which you could revoke your purchase or claim a refund upon cancellation of your purchase (also known as a cooling off period) (if any) available to you under any applicable e-commerce regulations or consumer protection laws. In the event a waiver of these rights is prohibited under the law, this cooling off period shall be limited to 7 days.
3. Each time you attempt to interact with Shazam, such as when you tag a music track for example, you will send data for which your Network will charge at your usual data rates.
4. Unless otherwise specifically provided by us, our licence to you under these Terms is personal to you and allows you to access and use the Application and the Services only on the Device on which the software was first installed. The licence is not transferrable to another person or another Device without our agreement, which will only be given in exceptional circumstances, or if otherwise expressly provided in these Terms.
5. Certain versions of the Application are distributed in a form that limits the availability of some of the Services that can be accessed from that version and/ or some of the Service features. Such an instance is when the Application imposes a limit on the number of tags or tag attempts that can be made in any period. Details on Services and feature set and any limitations on use for your version of the Application are accessible via the Application from your Device and/ or from the source where you originally obtained the Application.

Protection of Minors

To use Shazam you must be aged 13 or older. Additionally, if you are under 18, you must get the permission of your parent or guardian and the person who pays your mobile phone bills (if different) and get them to agree to these Terms on your behalf before you use Shazam and before you provide any personal information to us. Also, to use some of the Services you may be asked to register with us and provide certain personal details. See the section on privacy below regarding what we do with this information.

You represent and warrant that you are fully able and competent to enter into the terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations, representations, and warranties set forth in these Terms, and to abide by and comply with these Terms and have obtained all necessary third-party consents, licences and permissions necessary to enter into and fully perform your obligations under these Terms. In the event you are reading these terms to provide permission to a minor to use Shazam, you also represent and warrant that you have the full authority to act on behalf of the service user and that you are either more than 18 years of age and contracting for yourself or are the parent or guardian of the person who will use the Services and are entering into this contract to cover their usage. In any case, you affirm that you are, or the person who will use Shazam (where you are the parent or guardian of that person) is, over the age of 13, as the Services are not intended for children under 13. If you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use Shazam. If you are the parent or guardian of a person under the age of 13 then please do not let that person use Shazam. Your access to the Services may be deleted or blocked without warning if it is found that you are misrepresenting your age or the age of the person using Shazam. In this case your membership account and all related data may also be deleted without warning. Your access to the Services is solely for your personal use, and you must not authorize others to use your account.

Usage Policy

Even where there is no limit imposed in the Application on the number of tag attempts that can be made, you nevertheless, agree to use the Services fairly. This service is meant for non-commercial use only and it is a breach of our usage policy if you send excessive music tag requests that lead to an over-allocation of system resources.

We will regard more than 300 attempts to tag music in any month, where we deliver tag results to you by SMS, and 1,000 attempts to tag music in any month, in any other case, to be a breach of our usage policy. If you breach the usage policy, we may cease to provide our Service to you without further notice. In that event we may, but are not obliged to, inform you by an SMS message or other suitable means, free of charge, that you have breached the usage policy. If you breach the usage policy and are using Shazam via a subscription package, we may immediately terminate your current subscription package by giving you reasonable prior notice, where practicable. We will inform you, free of charge, that you have breached the usage policy and then terminate or suspend your current service account or bring your current subscription period to an end. Specific rules relating to individual subscription packages may be notified on our Website.

You agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself any time you are prompted by Shazam to fill a registration form (such information being the "Membership Data") and to maintain the accuracy of this Membership Data throughout the period you use Shazam. If you do not, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that you have not, we have the right to suspend and/ or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of Shazam. Membership Data and certain other information about you are subject to our Privacy Policy.

When you register on the Website or within the Application, we automatically create a profile for you, which may be viewable by the other Users. By choosing to make your profile public, your username and the time/date of your tags, as well as all material you post on your profile, will become visible to any visitor to the Website and/ or the Application. No other personal data is made public by us. If you want to make your profile private, you may update your details on your profile page on the Website and/or Application to reflect your choice where available. Shazam is available for your personal use only and you may not use Shazam for any commercial purposes. We may restrict or terminate your access to Shazam, at any time, without notice, if you are in breach of these Terms.

We may change, suspend or discontinue any aspect of Shazam at any time, including the availability of any feature, database and/ or content. We may also impose limits on certain features and services or restrict your access to parts or all of the Services without liability. Such changes will be notified with reasonable notice, where they are material and where practicable, and you will have the opportunity to terminate the service should you not accept the new Terms. Where these changes or suspensions would amount to a complete termination of the Services you may be entitled to a refund of the reasonable part of any charges paid by you.

Continued use of the Application and/ or Services may require a download of new releases of software with different functionality and that may have different licence terms.

You agree not to misuse Shazam and, in particular, you agree that you will not: (i) post or distribute any offensive, obscene or otherwise inappropriate material which may cause offence to others on grounds of race, religion, ethnicity or sex; (ii) post or distribute any material that is unlawful or which threatens or encourages illegal activities or which harms the rights of others; (iii) post or distribute material which is not your own; (iv) post or distribute any material which infringes the copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret or other intellectual property or proprietary rights of any other party; (v) post or distribute any unsolicited advertising material, 'junk mail', 'spam', 'chain letters', or 'pyramid schemes'; (vi) defame, harass or stalk others or encourage such behaviour; (vii) harm, or attempt to harm, minors in any way; (viii) impersonate any person or entity or create a false or misleading identity; (ix) access, or attempt to access, the accounts of others; (x) breach, or attempt to breach, our security measures, or penetrate or attempt to penetrate our computer software, hardware, electronic communication system, or telecommunications systems; (xi) collect, attempt to collect, or use other members' personal information; (xii) engage in any activity which adversely affects the ability of other people or systems to use the Shazam or the internet generally; (xiii) cause any nuisance or cause the operation of Shazam to be jeopardised or impaired; (xiv) post or distribute any material that contains any form of software virus or programs designed to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment; (xv) modify, adapt, translate, or reverse engineer any portion of Shazam or its contents, or use any robot, spider, site search/retrieval application, or other device to retrieve or index any portion of the Website and/or Application, save only to the extent permitted by applicable law; or (xvi) use the Shazam for any improper, unlawful or immoral purpose.

Location Based Services

Where we collect location-based information, we will generally do it on an anonymised basis for the improvement of our Application or Services. You consent to our use of anonymised location based services information collected from you.

Where the location-based information is personally identifiable we will give you options to manage your disclosure of this information within Shazam. Depending on the functionalities available on your Device you may benefit from advanced options to manage the location-based information. Where this technology is used in conjunction with any Third Party Applications or Sites further information on usage policies and options management shall be available from such third parties. It is your responsibility to find, read and understand the usage policies of these services, get fully familiar with all the available disclosure options and manage these in a way that fits your purposes.

If you believe that your work has been copied or used in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, please provide our copyright agent with the following information ("Notice"): (i) an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest; (ii) a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed; (iii) a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located; (iv) your address, telephone number, and email address; (v) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (vi) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your Notice is accurate and that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual property owner's behalf.

We have the right but not the obligation to refuse to post, remove or edit any posting or submission User Content. We do not actively monitor User Content and take no responsibility and assume no liability for any User Content.

By submitting the User Content to us, you grant us and our affiliates the right to use the username that you submit in connection with such User Content.

Advertising

We reserve the right to deliver advertising to you in conjunction with your use of Shazam and utilise the processor bandwidth and storage hardware on your Device for this purpose.

A cookie is a small amount of data sent from our server and stored on your computer's hard drive. We may use "cookies" (the nature and use of which are detailed in our Privacy Policy) on your browser or use web beacons to collect process or disclose information, in the course of our service delivery or while advertisements are being served to you. This allows us to store and retrieve login information on a user's system and provide us with data on your usage of Shazam and your interaction with the advertisements; this data helps us to improve our Services and enables us or any third party advertisers to deliver more targeted advertisements. Any cookies used by advertisers are covered by the privacy policy of the relevant advertiser. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can usually set your browser to prevent this from happening.

Advertising may be contextual, that is it may be sent to you based on your current location or use of Shazam. Any opt out that you send us in relation to direct marketing communications does not apply to such advertising. In addition, you may receive advertising and promotional information or offers if you respond to a Shazam prompt on radio or television or in audiovisual or interactive media.

Where Shazam contains links to third-party content, applications, services and/ or advertising, we are not responsible for the privacy policy or for any matters relating to such third party products, promotions or advertising, including responsibility for controlling any personal data that you may provide in response to such products, promotions or advertising. We encourage you to check the privacy policies of all third party sites that you visit.

Availability of Services

We will do our best to offer you a smooth service, but we give no guarantees that Shazam will be fault free or that the Services will be uninterrupted. If a fault does occur, please report it to Customer Services and we will attempt to correct the fault as soon as we reasonably can.

We will occasionally restrict your access to the Website or to the Services to carry out repairs, maintenance or to introduce new functionality or services and we will endeavour to keep disruption to a minimum.

New Services are subject to a period of testing. This means that a new Service may not perform with complete functionality, may be undergoing testing, may be inconsistently available, may have software "bugs" being fixed by us and may have other issues affecting availability and functionality.

Nothing in these Terms shall be construed so as to exclude or limit our liability or that of any third party for death or personal injury as a result of negligence.

Nothing in these Terms affects any mandatory statutory rights that you may have as a consumer, except to the extent permitted by law.

Where we actively promote and sell our products outside of United Kingdom we will endeavour to comply with mandatory local regulations of public policy and consumer protection, but disclaim all and any liability, apart from the liability assumed within these Terms, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Privacy Policy

We may use and/ or maintain records of your personal information such as your name address, phone number, Membership Data and/ or other unique personal identifier, as the case may be, to provide and facilitate use of Shazam. Some instances where such personal information is used or collected are: to facilitate purchase of ringtones or full track music downloads, for troubleshooting problems and technical or security issues, for detecting and protecting against error, fraud or other criminal activity, to enforce these Terms or as required by any applicable laws, rules or regulations or governmental requirements, for other internal purposes, as otherwise expressly informed at the time of collection, and to keep you informed about our products and services.

Any personal information or content that you voluntarily disclose while using Shazam or an associated Third Party Application and/ or Site, which can be viewed by other members thereof (for example, on discussion boards, in messages and chat areas, within your public profile page, via messages or third party services etc.), becomes publicly viewable and can be collected and used by others.

We will separately seek your consent to send you direct information or advertising about third party products or services that may interest you and will include unsubscribe information therein.

In addition, if you have any questions regarding privacy, please contact us by email at privacy@shazamteam.com.

This will not be recorded by us as personal information in relation to your usage.

Except as expressly provided herein, absent your prior consent, we do not permit unrelated third parties to perform "reverse searches" whereby they could identify users from email addresses. In addition, the following describes some of the ways that your personal information may be disclosed in the normal scope of business to provide you with Shazam:

• Advertisers. We may aggregate personal information and disclose such information in a non-personally identifiable manner to advertisers and other third parties for their marketing and promotional purposes. In these situations, we would only disclose information that could be used to identify you personally with your explicit consent.
• External Service Providers. Third Party Applications and Sites, here also referred to as external service providers, will typically provide services complementary to your use of Shazam. If you choose to use these separate services, disclose information to the external service providers, and/ or grant them permission to collect information about you, then their use of your information is governed by their privacy policy. With your consent, and for your convenience, we may provide some of your personal information to an external service provider offering such services. To prevent our disclosure of your personally identifiable information to an external service provider, you can decline such consent or simply not use their services. Because we do not control the privacy practices of these third parties, you should evaluate their practices before deciding to use their services.
• Internal Service Providers. We may use third parties that we refer to as internal service providers to facilitate or outsource one or more aspects of our business, products and services that we provide to you and, therefore, we may provide some of your personal information directly to these internal service providers (e.g. customer care). In some instances, the internal service provider may collect information directly from you. In these cases, you will be notified of the involvement of the internal service provider. If you provide additional information to an internal service provider directly, then their use of your personally identifiable information is governed by their applicable privacy policy.

Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason, we do not knowingly collect or maintain personally identifiable information or non-personally-identifiable information on Shazam from persons under 13 years of age, and no part of our Services are directed to persons under 13. If you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use or access Shazam at any time or in any manner. If we learn that personally identifiable information of persons under 13 years of age has been collected within Shazam without verified parental consent, then we will take the appropriate steps to delete this Information.

We cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personal information will never be disclosed through no fault of ours, not otherwise provided for in this Privacy Policy. By way of example, without limiting the foregoing, we may be forced to disclose personal information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access your transmissions or communications. Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable information or private communications will always remain private. However, we shall use reasonable commercial and legal efforts to protect our Users' information and to maintain the privacy and anonymity of members and Users.

In the event that we are acquired by or merged with a third party entity, or sell all or substantially all of our assets, we reserve the right, in any of these circumstances, to transfer or assign the information and content we have received and collected from our Users as part of such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control. In the unlikely event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of laws or equitable principles affecting creditors' rights generally, we may not be able to control how your personal information is treated, transferred or used.
