Ozhiphopshop.com Terms & Conditions For Vendors Selling Digital Music
Effective Date: January 12 2018
Ozhiphopshop.com (“Ozhiphopshop.com”, “us”, “we”, or “our”) operates the Ozhiphopshop.com website (the “Service”).
Set forth below are the terms and conditions governing the Service, which may expand or change from time to time. As used herein, the term “you” or “your” refers to an individual, representing yourself or, if applicable, acting as legal representative for a group, business entity or corporation.
CAREFULLY READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. BY AVAILING YOURSELF OF THE WEBSITE OR RELATED SERVICES, YOU ARE CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AS SUCH TERMS MAY BE MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME AS DESCRIBED BELOW.
Use of Materials Found on the Website: The information, artwork, text, video, audio, pictures, software and other intellectual property (collectively, “Materials”) contained on the Website are protected by copyright and international laws. You may only access and use the Materials for personal or educational purposes or as expressly provided for in applicable Ozhiphopshop.com program terms and conditions. You may not otherwise reproduce, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, modify or create derivative works of the Materials, unless authorized by the appropriate copyright owner(s). In the event that you print Materials found on the Website, you must include any copyright notice originally included with the Materials on all copies. You may not link directly to any media file located on a Ozhiphopshop.com server, except where explicitly allowed to do so. You should not attempt to claim any Materials as your own work. Any computer software downloadable or otherwise available on the Website is provided subject to the terms of the applicable license agreement. Before using any Ozhiphopshop.com logo or trademark, please contact Ozhiphopshop.com.
Copyright and Trademark Infringement Policy and Notification Procedure: Ozhiphopshop.com does not own the musical compositions, sound recordings, art or other written or visual images (collectively, the “Content”) posted by third parties to the Website. All Content is posted by an individual, group or company (collectively, the “Artist”) who has represented and warranted to Ozhiphopshop.com that, among other things, neither the Content nor the names, trademarks and service marks under which Content is promoted (collectively, the “Name”) infringes any third party’s copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights, rights of publicity or privacy, or moral rights. Buyers are subject to clear any samples on any composition purchased.
Since Ozhiphopshop.com is not in a position to determine who has the prevailing claim to use any particular Content or Name posted to the Website, its policy on such matters is that they be resolved directly by the parties alleging misuse of their Content and/or Name (the “Complainants”) and the Artists. We recommend that Complainants immediately notify Artists about allegations of infringement by going to the Artist’s page on the Website, clicking the Contact link and contacting the Artist directly. It has been Ozhiphopshop.com’s experience that most Artists are honest and responsible citizens who may not realize they are engaged in infringing activities. Typically, once notified of a claim, Artists voluntarily cease using such infringing Content and/or Name on the Website and elsewhere.
Complainants may notify Ozhiphopshop.com concerning any Content and/or Name being used on the Website in violation of their rights by sending an email to info@Ozhiphopshop.com. Ozhiphopshop.com only shall use information provided by Complainants in accordance with its then-current Privacy Policy and as reasonably necessary to address any allegations contained therein, which may include disclosing some or all of the information to Artists. In most cases, soon after receiving written notice alleging infringement, Ozhiphopshop.com either will remove the allegedly infringing Content and/or Name from those web pages identified or, at its election, remove those web pages.
Refund policy: Ozhiphopshop.com does not offer refunds. If there are any issues with a premium service or an ordered item please contact Ozhiphopshop.com immediately, we aim to solve any issue amicably. Premium services (recurring billings) can be cancelled anytime for any reason. Cancellations by the individual, group or company that signed up for the premium service (collectively, the “Subscriber”) will be effective after the paid period. In case of cancellation by the Subscriber the period that is already paid for will not be reimbursed. The premium service will then remain active until the end of the paid period. Ozhiphopshop.com reserves the right to cancel premium services for any reason at any time without notification. If Ozhiphopshop.com cancels a premium service before its expiration date, Subscriber might be entitled to a pro-rated refund of the last payment. No refund will be given if the user violated the Terms and Conditions of Web Site Use, or the Music Submission Agreement.
Premium service can be cancelled by emailing info@Ozhiphopshop.com with cancellation request and artist name or order ID. Cancellation will be confirmed by email.
