This end user license agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into between you (the “Licensee”), who has purchased a license to use one or more sound effect libraries through the Distributor, and the creator, or creators, of these sound effect libraries (the “Licensor”).

This Agreement covers license(s) to the sound libraries purchased by the Licensee via the Distributor as defined in the Terms and conditions which appears from the invoice that the Licensee receives following the purchase (the “Sound Libraries”).

The Licensor is the creator or creators of the Sound Libraries stated as such on the Distributor’s website and listed on the invoice which the Licensee receives following the purchase.

By accepting this Agreement the Licensee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions set out herein.

1. Grant of License

On the invoice that the Licensee receives following the purchase it is stated how many licenses to the Sound Libraries that the Licensee has been granted.

2. Rights Granted
The license(s) granted in this Agreement allows the Licensee to:

a. install and use the Sound Libraries on as many of the Licensee’s workstations at a time as the number of licenses to the Sound Libraries that the Licensee has purchased, although the Licensee is permitted to make and keep backup copies of the Sound Libraries on other storage devices; and

b. distribute and publicly perform reproductions of the Sounds, where these are incorporated in and synchronized with other media productions, which shall mean products that contains at least one additional media element to the Sounds (music, voice, image, etc.), including but not limited to radio and television broadcasts, film, music compositions, websites, podcasts, mobile apps, advertising, multi-media presentations, video games and similar.

3. Restrictions

To the furthest extension permitted by law, the Licensee is prohibited from adapting, modifying or repackaging any Sounds, except as permitted in Clause 2.b.

Furthermore, for the sake of clarity, the audio files licensed under this agreement, or any new audio content derived from or based on the audio files, may not be used in whole or in part in:

1. Any library (e.g. sample instrument, sound effects library, production music as single accessible stems, etc.),
2. Usage as pre-installed sounds in any physical / hardware device or toy, online or offline
3. Usage, in whole or in part, for the purpose of training, improving, or developing any Neural Networks (NN), Artificial Intelligence (AI) or Machine Learning (ML) models or algorithms, whether for commercial or non-commercial use.
4. usage in any product that is primarily a sound product. Primarily, for the purposes of this agreement, is defined as containing pure sound effects using Sound Libraries (without voice, music) for at least 50% of the total elapsed time of the product. Examples of restricted products would be soundscape albums, sound effect collages on YouTube, ambient sound videos without narration.

If you have any doubts or if you’re looking to include our Sound Libraries in ways that are mentioned in the Restrictions, please get in touch with us. We’re here to discuss the possibility of obtaining a custom license or providing further clarification.
