Attention

The simple access to any of our sites results in the assumption that you have read the most recent and updated version of the Terms of Use. In addition, we will assume that you have agreed to all of the conditions set out here and also to all other policies published in any of these sites. For this reason, we recommend that you read this document carefully BEFORE you start using any of our sites or downloading our applications. We also recommend reading all the other policies we have adopted, such as our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to any of the terms set forth in the Terms of Use or if you do not agree to any of our policies, we suggest you not to access our sites and not to use our services and products. But of course, if you just have any question about the usage rules, feel free to consult us. We will be glad to answer you!

Free

All services, applications and features offered by us on our sites are entirely free of charge and no payment is required from our users.

Register

Let us suppose, then, that this is the first time you are accessing a website of our company and that you have already read and agreed to these Terms of Use. You may continue to browse freely, without having to register, by visiting all the pages available to non-registered users. However, if you want to participate more directly in the features offered by our sites, you will need to fill out a registration form.

When registering, you must provide personal information such as name, email address, city, country, birth date and gender. The provision of these data is mandatory and it is essential that you only enter valid, accurate and truthful information on the form. In addition, we request that you update your personal information whenever there is a change. Incidentally, we reserve the right to use all valid and possible means to identify our users, in order to avoid fraud and false profiles. If you would like more information on this, we suggest you read our Privacy Policy.

Ability to register

The websites, applications and features we own are only available to people who have full legal capacity to hire them, under Brazilian law. They can not be used by persons who do not have this capacity, including minors (persons under 18 years of age), who must be assisted or represented by parents, guardians or legal representatives. The same goes for people who have been disabled by us, temporarily or permanently, due to the inappropriate use of the sites.

It is also not allowed for the same person to have more than one register. If we detect duplicate registrations, we will be able to unify them or even permanently disable them without prior notice.

Login and password

At the end of the registration, you will need to define a login and a password, which must be informed to each access. But be careful: the password and the login must be kept by you safely, since you will be fully responsible for the consequences of its use. For this reason, we do not recommend that you tell any such data to others. If you know of any unauthorized use of your login and password, we request you to notify us immediately by email (suporte@studiosol.com.br), otherwise you will be held responsible for the consequences of such misuse.

In addition to access Palco MP3 through login and password, you can also connect to the platform using your Facebook, Twitter or Gmail account.

Cookies

We may use a cookie installation mechanism on your computer when you access our websites, in order to customize your experience. This allows you, for example, to have your password automatically populated on your computer, as well as let the site inform you of previous activities that you have performed on the sites. That is, the use of cookies does not have the potential to harm you; on the contrary, they facilitate the use of our sites. However, if you do not want cookies installed, you can configure your browser to prevent installation. Check your browser's standards for this.

Besides these, there is also a collection of data about advertising on the device, including clicks made from it, impressions, and time spent on advertising.

Meeting the transparency requirements, we detail below the data of your device that can be collected if you use one of our apps:

• A. Anonymous device advertising identifiers, mobile device attributes, and applications installed on the device;

In Loco Media

Studio Sol applications contain geolocation technology owned by IN LOCO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY S.A. ("In Loco"). This technology allows the capture of location data from your mobile device, which is collected and treated anonymously by In Loco so you can receive more effective ads in our apps. By accepting this Privacy Policy, you represent that you are aware of and agree to the collection and processing of your data by In Loco, as provided in In Loco's Privacy Policy

Content posting

It is important to clarify that we, from Studio Sol, are mere "application providers" according to the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet. In other words, we are simply the owners of the sites and their platforms. Our mission is to disseminate knowledge, exercising a clear activity of musical formation, inspired by the highest precepts of democratization and universality of education. We are not responsible for launch or posting any content on our sites (unless are those of our company), and posting content is, therefore, a faculty exclusive to our users.

For this reason, as mere providers, we are not responsible for the content posted. This is left to the users. For this reason, it is very important that you, as a user, pay close attention to the content you post on any of our sites, such as lyrics, tabs, tablatures, videos, photos, music files or any other type of content, avoiding, for example, copyright infringement, personality rights, such as the image, voice, and name of third parties or trademark rights.

With respect to copyright, we assume that you will post on Palco MP3 only free and / or licensed content that does not violate third party rights. The definition and classification of copyrightable works means: In creating a work that is original (that is, creative work and fixed in any medium, tangible or intangible), the individual becomes the owner / property owner and also the rights to this work. As it could not be, these rights are exclusive in nature for their use in a specific and specific way.

In order to facilitate the user's understanding of the types of content that can not be published on Palco MP3 due to copyright, here are some points of attention:

• Remixes and covers. Even if the editing, adaptation, musical arrangement and any other transformations have been performed by the user, it needs permission from the owner of the music used as the basis to follow with its publication;
• The use of excerpts, whether of the lyric or part of the phonogram of a song by a third party, can only be published by the user if it has permission from the artist who created the song;
• For more information, the user can refer to Art. 29, included in Chapter III, of the Copyright Law, available in http://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/leis/l9610.htm

Concerning Palco MP3, the most relevant models of work with which to guard against copyright are: musical lyrics, videos, photos, phonograms belonging to record companies (songs and pieces of music that other artists record in CD or DVD), edited compositions (songs and music extracts whose copyrights of the composer are protected by publishers), dramatic works (such as musicals) and images of CD or DVD covers protected by the artist's image right (that is, the user may not publish publicity photos or other artist's CD or DVD arts without their prior authorization).

We now have an advanced system that works to detect and prevent the posting of copyrighted content, but this system does not exempt the user from the responsibility of making sure that he has the right to post any content.

Our responsibility is limited, it is important to say, to remove online content, whenever we receive a specific court order accordingly. This is a consequence of the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet (article 19). In addition, we suggest you read the next topic of the Terms of Use, which deals with the removal of online content.

If the user understands that he has the right to publish certain content or that the withdrawal of such content from his profile is not valid, because he understands that he is not infringing any copyright or property, he should contact by e-mail suporte@palcomp3.com and provide information and documentation in order to obtain release to move forward with your publication. We are always willing to talk and help our users to get the best out of our platforms. :)

In order to create a culture of content evaluation by the user, before submitting the file to the publication, the following warning policy is adopted by Palco MP3:

• Light Warning: At the time of file upload, if our system identifies you as being copyrighted, you receive an educational advisory that explains why the content can not be published. A warning is counted to the user profile for each inappropriate content upload attempt.
• Moderate warning: When an already published content is reported or identified as copyrighted, the user receives an email notification and a unique resolution section of that complaint is displayed to him as soon as the user accesses the administration panel of his profile. In this section, the user must remove the reported content or open a discussion to prove that he has the right to keep the content of this content. A warning is posted to the user profile for each reported content.
• Heavy warning / suspension: in the case of profiles that have 3 or more warnings, the measure to be taken will be the suspension for a period to be defined by Palco MP3 of the new content publication function. In cases of constant recurrence, the suspension may be applied indefinitely. Finally, the profile that does not fit the Terms of Use and Content Posting can be completely excluded from Palco MP3.

All these actions are intended to protect both Palco MP3 and its users from problems with third party properties. We reaffirm our goal of being a support platform for good music and its creators and we are available to clarify and help our users to get the most out of our platforms, always respecting the Brazilian laws and internal guidelines of Palco MP3.

By accepting these Terms of Use, you also agree that any and all content that has been posted by you, its authorship or authorship of third parties, is used on all our sites (although the posting has been made in a single website) as well as on our social networks. In addition, you allow the content to be edited by other registered users, who may suggest adjustments, propose arrangements and modifications, developing a truly collaborative platform whose sole purpose is free distribution of knowledge and quality musical training. Specifically, on the Palco MP3 website, we can use photos and graphic elements present on the artist's page on Palco MP3, official websites or not, and social networks for application in the featured images of the main page. With this, the bands and artists must agree that Palco MP3 makes use of the mentioned items for the purpose of divulging exclusively on the site itself and official social networks. Finally, you also allow our sites to link advertisements, including the content you have posted, without restriction.

You guarantee that no use of the content posted by you will imply the payment of any nature, being always free of charge, if the other users comply with the conditions set forth in these Terms of Use.

In addition, you also authorize Palco MP3 to use content available on your profile(s) to Lives Streams of Playlists on YouTube channel, or another Palco MP3’s social media, to impulse the promotion of artists listed on those playlists.

Palco MP3 reserves the right (but not the obligation) to monitor or review the content posted here, at its sole discretion, at any time, and may remove any content posted here, for any reason (or no reason). Including content that may violate the terms of use or any law. Although Palco MP3 does not generally monitor user activity, if we become aware of any possible violations, we have the right to investigate them, and we may immediately terminate any user's rights to use the platform. Palco MP3 also reserves the right to modify, alter or remove content or information about the account, in whole or in part, without prior notice.

Promotion on the Glorify app

Aiming at increasing the promotion of registered artists, Palco MP3 signed a partnership¹ with Glorify, a Christian application that provides interactive content such as songs, prayers, meditations and devotionals. With the acceptance of this Term of Use, you authorize the sharing of your image and music on Palco MP3’s official playlists shared and made available on the Glorify² application.

¹ The partnership in question does not involve financial consideration.

² Palco MP3 is not responsible for any information made available on the Glorify application.

Copyright infringement report

If any person or company understands that certain content posted by one of our users violates your copyrights or personality rights, you may send us an e-mail (suporte@studiosol.com.br), describing the fact, indicating precisely all the URLs (links) that contain the respective contents and proving the quality of holder of that right by suitable means.

Although the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet only requires an application provider to remove content after receiving a specific court order, we reserve the right to remove contents even without receiving a court order, whenever we detect a situation that may consist in a serious violation of rights. This does not mean, however, that we are liable for damages resulting from the maintenance of the online content from the moment of the receipt of a notification or e-mail informing the alleged violation. No, removing the contents before receiving a court order is a prerogative, our right, not properly an obligation.

In addition, you, the user, fully accept that any content that you post on any of our sites may be removed without prior notice. In any event, you will be notified of any allegations of copyright infringement involving content you have posted, and you may defend yourself by submitting your case. In addition, you also authorize us to pass on your personal data supplied in registration, as well as your Internet Protocol (IP), at the request of the Judiciary. None of these acts adopted by us will, therefore, have the potential to cause damages, being fully accepted by you, who can not seek compensation from our company.
