Description of the Platform

The platform is a hosting service. Registered users of the platform may submit, upload, and post audio, text, photos, pictures, graphics, comments, and other content, data, or information ("content"), which will be stored by Nasheed Station at the direction of such registered users, and may be shared and distributed by these registered users and other users of the platform, using the tools and features provided as part of the platform and accessible via the website, apps, and elsewhere. The platform also enables registered users to interact with one another and to contribute to discussions, and allows any user of the website, apps, or certain services (who may or may not be registered users of the platform) to view, listen to, and share content uploaded and made available by registered users. The platform includes social and interactive features that enable users to engage with and learn from the Nasheed Station community in order to build a following and ensure they receive the content that interests them most. For example, users who upload content to Nasheed Station will gain access to our creator stats feature, which provides creators with insights into how their content performs among users, including which users are top listeners and downloaders of such content. Some features of our platform are only available to registered users who subscribe to a certain service (see Subscriptions and Gift Codes below). Nasheed Station, however, remains free for users who choose not to subscribe to such services. To make the platform available for free and provide you with personally relevant features, we serve tailored ads on the platform on behalf of third-party advertisers. To that end, we use information that you provide when you interact with the platform to inform the nature of the ads we show you and provide you with a customized experience. More information on how we use data to show you personalized ads is described in our Privacy Policy. We may, from time to time, release new tools and resources on the website, release new versions of our apps, or introduce other services and/or features for the platform. Any new services and features will be subject to these Terms of Use as well as any additional terms and conditions that we may release for those specific services or features.

Your Nasheed Station account

You are not obliged to register to use the platform. However, access to the apps and certain services is only available to registered users. For example, our app, Nasheed Station Pulse, enables registered users who upload and make their content available to other users to receive instant feedback on the performance of their tracks, communicate with their listeners, and manage their content anytime. To engage with other Nasheed Station listeners and creators, we enable you to create and personalize a public profile on Nasheed Station. To do this, you must provide us with the information you want to display on your profile. To help you navigate and discover content on the platform that interests you, as a registered user, you will also receive auto-generated personalized recommendations for other content that might appeal to you based on your listening habits. When you register to use the platform, you will provide us with your email address and choose a username and password for your account. You must ensure that the email address you provide is valid and remains so. Your email address and any other information you choose to provide about yourself will be treated in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your username and password, and you will remain responsible for all use of your username and password, and all activity emanating from your account, whether or not such activity was authorized by you. If your username or password is lost or stolen, or if you believe that your account has been accessed by unauthorized third parties, you are advised to notify Nasheed Station in writing and should change your password at the earliest possible opportunity. We reserve the right to disallow, cancel, remove, or reassign certain usernames and permalinks in appropriate circumstances, as determined by us in our sole discretion, and may, with or without prior notice, suspend or terminate your account if activities occur on that account which, in our sole discretion, would or might constitute a violation of these Terms of Use or our Community Guidelines, or an infringement or violation of the rights of any third party, or of any applicable laws or regulations. You may terminate your account at any time as described in the Termination section below.

  • any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional messages, spam, or any other form of solicitation.

Your Content

Any and all audio, text, photos, pictures, graphics, comments, and other content, data, or information that you upload, store, transmit, submit, exchange, or make available to or via the platform (hereinafter "your content") is generated, owned, and controlled solely by you and not by Nasheed Station. Nasheed Station does not claim any ownership rights in your content, and you hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that your content remains your sole responsibility. Without prejudice to the conditions set forth in Your Use of the Platform, you must not upload, store, distribute, send, transmit, display, perform, make available, continue to 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 works 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), independent of whether it is or becomes unauthorized at a later point, 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 Infringes section below, and may also result in civil litigation or criminal prosecution by or on behalf of the relevant rights holder. Not all unauthorized uses of copyright-protected works constitute an infringement. Users in the European Union can use copyright-protected works under certain exceptions or limitations to copyright, namely quotation, criticism, review, use for the purpose of caricature, parody, or pastiche. We may, from time to time, invite or provide you with means to provide feedback regarding the platform, and in such circumstances, any feedback you provide will be deemed non-confidential and Nasheed Station shall have the right, but not the obligation, to use such feedback on an unrestricted basis.

Grant of License

By uploading or posting your content to the platform, you initiate an automated process to transcode any audio content and direct Nasheed Station 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 (including whether users will be permitted to listen to your content offline), and other communication to the public of your content on the platform and elsewhere using the services. To the extent necessary for Nasheed Station to provide you with any of the aforementioned hosting services, to undertake any of the tasks set forth in these Terms of Use, including the distribution of advertising or other promotional material on our platform and/or to enable your use of the platform, you hereby grant such licenses to Nasheed Station on a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, and fully paid basis. By uploading your content to the platform, you also grant a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid 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, listen to offline, 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 services. 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 permissions tab in the track edit section for each sound you upload, subject to the provisions of the Disclaimer section below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in these Terms of Use 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 sounds 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 of Use) 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. Removal of audio content from your account will automatically result in the deletion of the relevant files from Nasheed Station's systems and servers. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, you hereby acknowledge and agree that once your content is distributed to a Linked Service, Nasheed Station 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. Furthermore, if you authorize any of your content to be available for offline listening, after deletion of an item of your content or removal from the ability for other users to listen to the applicable content offline, the applicable content may still be temporarily available to other users of the platform who saved the applicable content for offline listening on their devices, but no longer than 30 days from the time of deletion. Any content other than your content is the property of the relevant Uploader and is or may be subject to copyright, trademark rights, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights. Such content may not be downloaded, reproduced, distributed, transmitted, re-uploaded, republished, displayed, sold, licensed, made available, or otherwise communicated to the public or exploited for any purposes except via the features of the platform from time to time and within the parameters set by the Uploader on the platform or with the express written consent of the Uploader. Where you repost another user's content, or include another user's content in a playlist or station or where you listen to another user's content offline, 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.

The Platform may provide you with access to third party websites, databases, networks, servers, information, software, programs, systems, directories, applications, products or services, including without limitation, linked services (hereinafter "External Services").

By linking or otherwise providing access to any External Services, Nasheed Station does not give any representation, warranty or endorsement, express or implied, with respect to the legality, accuracy, quality or authenticity of content, information or services provided by such External Services.

You are advised to make reasonable inquiries and investigations before entering into any transaction, financial or otherwise, and whether online or offline, with any third party related to any External Services. You are solely responsible for taking the precautions necessary to protect yourself from fraud when using External Services, and to protect your computer systems from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other harmful or destructive content and material that may be included on or may emanate from any External Services. Nasheed Station disclaims any and all responsibility or liability for any harm resulting from your use of External Services, and you hereby irrevocably waive any claim against Nasheed Station with respect to the content or operation of any External Services.

Blocking and removal of content

Notwithstanding the fact that Nasheed Station has no legal obligation to monitor the content on the Platform, Nasheed Station reserves the right to block, remove or delete any content at any time, and to limit or restrict access to any content, for any reason and without liability. This includes, without limitation, if we have reason to believe that such content does or might infringe the rights of any third party, has been uploaded or posted in breach of these Terms of Use, our Community Guidelines or applicable law, or is otherwise unacceptable to Nasheed Station. Please note that individual uploaders have control over the audio content stored in their account and may remove any or all audio content without notice. You have no right of continued access to any particular item of content, and Nasheed Station shall have no liability in the event that you are unable to access an item of content due to its removal from the Platform, whether by Nasheed Station or the relevant uploader.

Repeat infringers

Nasheed Station will suspend or terminate your access to the Platform if Nasheed Station determines, in its reasonable discretion, that you have repeatedly breached these Terms of Use or our Community Guidelines. If we receive a valid notification from a third party in accordance with our reporting processes or applicable law that any of your content infringes the copyright or other rights of such third party, or if we believe that your behavior violates our Community Guidelines, we will send you a written warning. Any user who receives more than two of these warnings is liable to have their access to the Platform terminated immediately. We will also suspend or terminate your account without warning if ordered to do so by a court, or in other appropriate circumstances, as determined by Nasheed Station at its discretion. Please note that we do not offer refunds to subscription account holders whose accounts are terminated as a result of repeated infringement or any violation of these Terms of Use or our Community Guidelines.

Disclaimer

The Platform, including, without limitation, the website, the apps and all content and services accessed through or via the website, the apps, the services or otherwise, are provided "as is", "as available", and "with all faults". While Nasheed Station uses reasonable endeavors to correct any errors or omissions in the Platform as soon as practicable once they have been brought to Nasheed Station's attention, Nasheed Station makes no promises, guarantees, representations or warranties of any kind whatsoever (express or implied) regarding the website, the apps, the services or any part or parts thereof, any content, or any linked services or other external services. Nasheed Station does not warrant that your use of the Platform will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the Platform or any part or parts thereof, the content, or the servers on which the Platform operates are or will be free of viruses or other harmful components. Nasheed Station does not warrant that any transmission of content uploaded to the Platform will be secure or that any elements of the Platform designed to prevent unauthorized access, sharing or download of content will be effective in any and all cases, and does not warrant that your use of the Platform is lawful in any particular jurisdiction. Nasheed Station and its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, and assigns, and their respective employees, agents, directors, officers and shareholders, specifically disclaim all of the foregoing warranties and any other warranties not expressly set out herein to the fullest extent permitted by law, including without limitation any express or implied warranties regarding non-infringement, merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. Where the law of any jurisdiction limits or prohibits the disclaimer of implied or other warranties as set out above, the above disclaimers shall not apply to the extent that the law of such jurisdiction applies to this agreement.

Limitation of Liability

In no event shall Nasheed Station's aggregate liability to you under this agreement exceed the greater of 100 euro or the amounts (if any) paid by you to Nasheed Station during the previous twelve (12) months for the services giving rise to the claim. Nasheed Station and its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, and assigns, and their respective employees, agents, directors, officers and shareholders, shall have no liability for:

  1. Any loss or damage arising from: (a) your inability to access or use the Platform or any part or parts thereof, or to access any content or any external services via the Platform; (b) any changes that Nasheed Station may make to the Platform or any part thereof, or any temporary or permanent suspension or cessation of access to the Platform or any content in or from any or all territories; (c) any action taken against you by third party rightsholders with respect to any alleged infringement of such third party's rights relating to your content or your use of the Platform, or any action taken as part of an investigation by Nasheed Station or any relevant law enforcement authority regarding your use of the Platform; (d) any errors or omissions in the Platform's technical operation, or from any inaccuracy or defect in any content or any information relating to content; (e) your failure to provide Nasheed Station with accurate or complete information, or your failure to keep your username or password suitably confidential; (f) any misconduct by other users or third parties using the Platform, especially in breach of the agreement;
  2. Any loss or damage to any computer hardware or software, any loss of data (including your content), or any loss or damage from any security breach; and/or
  3. Any loss of profits, or any loss you suffer which is not a foreseeable consequence of Nasheed Station breaching these Terms of Use. Losses are foreseeable where they could be contemplated by you and Nasheed Station at the time you agree to these Terms of Use, and therefore do not include any indirect losses, such as loss of opportunity. Any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of the Platform must be notified to Nasheed Station as soon as possible. Applicable law may not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. In such cases, you acknowledge and agree that such limitations and exclusions reflect a reasonable and fair allocation of risk between you and Nasheed Station and are fundamental elements of the bargain between you and Nasheed Station, and that Nasheed Station's liability will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms of Use limits or excludes the liability of Nasheed Station, its subsidiaries, successors, assigns, or their respective employees, agents, directors, officers and/or shareholders: (i) for any death or personal injury caused by its or their negligence, (ii) for any form of fraud or deceit, (iii) for any damages caused willfully or by gross negligence, or (iv) for any form of liability which cannot be limited or excluded by law.

You hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Nasheed Station, its successors, assigns, affiliates, agents, directors, officers, employees and shareholders from and against any and all claims, obligations, damages, losses, expenses, and costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from: (i) any violation by you of these Terms of Use or our Community Guidelines; (ii) any third party claim of infringement of copyright or other intellectual property rights or invasion of privacy arising from the hosting of your content on the Platform, and/or your making available thereof to other users of the Platform, and/or the actual use of your content by other users of the Platform or linked services in accordance with these Terms of Use and the parameters set by you with respect to the distribution and sharing of your content; (iii) any activity related to your account, be it by you or by any other person accessing your account with or without your consent, unless such activity was caused by the act or default of Nasheed Station.

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, disclosed and otherwise processed by Nasheed Station in accordance with our Privacy Policy. In addition, like 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 them is explained in our Cookies Policy.

Meetups

Nasheed Station has an active community of users, many of whom organize and attend face-to-face meetings at venues all over the world ("meetups"). While Nasheed Station is generally supportive of meetups and may provide branded promotional materials to help organizers promote their meetups, Nasheed Station does not sponsor, oversee, or in any way control such meetups. You hereby acknowledge and agree that your attendance and participation in any meetups is entirely at your own risk, and Nasheed Station does not bear any responsibility or liability for the actions of any Nasheed Station users or any third parties who organize, attend, or are otherwise involved in any meetups.

Competitions and other promotions

From time to time, some Nasheed Station users may promote competitions, promotions, prize draws and other similar opportunities on the Platform ("third party competitions"). Nasheed Station is not the sponsor or promoter of these third party competitions and does not bear any responsibility or liability for the actions or inactions of any third parties who organize, administer or are otherwise involved in any of these competitions. If you wish to participate in any of these third party competitions, it is your responsibility to read the terms and conditions applicable to the relevant competition and to ensure that you understand the rules and any eligibility requirements, and are lawfully able to participate in such competitions in your country of residence. If you wish to run your own competition on the Platform, you are free to do so provided you comply with our Competition Terms, which are available here.

Use of Nasheed Station players and widget

The Platform includes access to customizable players ("players") and an embeddable version of the Nasheed Station waveform player ("widget") 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 Nasheed Station, use the players or the widget 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 Nasheed Station, use the players or the widget 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 players or widget in any way that suggests that Nasheed Station or any artist, audio creator or other third party endorses or supports your website, or your use of the players or widget. The foregoing shall apply whether such use is commercial or non-commercial. Nasheed Station reserves the right to block your use of the players and the widget at any time and for any reason at its sole discretion.

Subscriptions and gift codes

Certain features of the Platform are only available to registered users who subscribe to a "Pro" or "Next Pro" plan (together, "pro accounts") or to Nasheed Station Go (pro accounts and Nasheed Station Go are each referred to as a "subscription"). The purchase of pro accounts and gift codes related to pro accounts is subject to additional terms, which you will find here. In addition, the purchase of subscriptions for Nasheed Station Go is subject to additional terms, which you will find here. The pro account terms and the Nasheed Station Go terms include, among other things, terms relating to payment, the conclusion, renewal and cancellation of your subscription, including your right of cancellation during the first 14 days of your subscription, and certain technical usage limitations. The pro account terms are applicable to Pro and Next Pro account users and the Nasheed Station Go terms are applicable to Nasheed Station Go users in addition to these general Terms of Use when they purchase a subscription. Nasheed Station reserves the right to limit the availability of Nasheed Station Go subscriptions to specific jurisdictions as may be determined by Nasheed Station in its sole discretion from time to time.

Changes to the Platform, accounts and pricing

Nasheed Station 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, Nasheed Station shall use its reasonable endeavors to notify registered users of such decision in advance. You hereby agree that Nasheed Station 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 Nasheed Station may wish to make from time to time, or for any decision to suspend, discontinue or terminate the website, the services or any part or parts thereof, or your possibility to use or access the same from or within any territory or territories. Nasheed Station 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 subscriptions from time to time. In the event of any increase in the price or material reduction in the features of any subscription which you have purchased, 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 Nasheed Station proposes to make changes to any type of subscription you have purchased, and these changes are material and to your disadvantage, Nasheed Station will notify you of the proposed changes by sending a message to your Nasheed Station account and/or an email to the then current email address that we have for your account, at least six (6) weeks in advance. 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 six (6) week period, your continued use of your account after the end of that six (6) week period will constitute your acceptance of the changes to your subscription.

If you have a Subscription and terminate this Agreement before the end of such Subscription, we are unable to offer any refund for any unexpired period of your Subscription. Nasheed Station may suspend your access to the Platform and/or terminate this Agreement at any time if (i) you are deemed to be a Repeat Infringer as described above; (ii) you are in breach of any of the material provisions of these Terms of Use or our Community Guidelines, including without limitation, the provisions of the following sections: Your Use of the Platform, Your Content, Grant of License, and Your Representations and Warranties; (iii) Nasheed Station elects at its discretion to cease providing access to the Platform in the jurisdiction where you reside or from where you are attempting to access the Platform, or (iv) in other reasonable circumstances as determined by Nasheed Station at its discretion.

You are advised to save or back up any material that you have uploaded to your account before terminating your account, as Nasheed Station assumes no liability for any material that is irretrievably deleted following any termination of your account. Nasheed Station 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 for as long as your account is active. If you access the Platform via any of our Apps or via any third party app connected to your account, deleting that app will not delete your account. If you wish to delete your account, you will need to do so from the Account page within your Settings on the Website.
