Our policy is to process your personal data at all times in accordance with applicable data protection laws and regulations. By “personal data,” we mean any information that identifies, relates to, or describes, directly or indirectly, a particular individual.

If you have questions, comments or requests about this Privacy Policy please contact us by sending an email to support@musio.com.

2. CHILDREN AND PRIVACY

The Services and their content are not directed at children under the age of 13. MUSIO does not knowingly collect or solicit any personal data from anyone under the age of 13 or knowingly allow such persons to register for the Services. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal data from a child under age 13 without parental consent, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any personal data from or about a child under 13, please notify us immediately by sending an email to support@musio.com.

3. COLLECTION OF PERSONAL DATA

We collect the following categories of personal data:

1. a) Information you provide us directly. When you register as a user for the online Services (through a paid subscription or trial offer) and/or use the Services (such as when you respond to surveys or attend events or concerts) you provide us with certain information that we store. This may include:

• personal identifiers (such as your name, username, social media name, address, email address, password, and phone number)
• device identifiers (such as your carrier identifier)

1. b) Information collected from third parties. We may receive information about you from third parties who may have collected and transferred your personal data to us in accordance with their own privacy policies and/or terms of use. This may include personal identifiers (such as your name, address, email address, and phone number) and personal characteristics (such as your data of birth and gender). Examples of such third parties include social media networks such as Facebook and Instagram. Where we receive such information from such third parties, we may combine it with the other personal data that we have collected about you as set out herein and use such information either alone or in combination with the other personal data we hold for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy.
2. c) Automatic information collection. When you use the online Services, we and service providers and trusted partners use cookies, log data, and similar technology to automatically record personal identifiers (such as your IP address and device identifiers), information about your device and browser (such as your browser type, locale preferences, and mobile carrier) and information concerning your online Services usage activity (such as sounds downloaded, clicks and views of content and pages, product ID, time of log-in, and what version of the Services you use, email opens, clicks, and forwards, the link you used to reach them, and the content and advertising displayed on them and our content and advertising on other websites and online services). If you access the Services via a handheld device, we also store a device identifier that uniquely identifies the device.

We and our service providers and trusted partners use this information (i) to provide, tailor, and personalize the Services to you; (ii) to enable certain features on the Services; (iii) for service improvement purposes; and (iv) for marketing and advertising purposes (as further described herein). We may also use internal or third-party analytics tools to help us measure traffic and usage trends for the Services that assist us in providing and improving the Services.

We permit service providers and trusted partners to track visitors to the Services and the activities of those visitors on the Services over time, and they may track those visitors across other websites and online services over time, if those websites and apps also use the same partners. In these situations, you are using and directing us to intentionally disclose personal information (including personal identifiers) to those service providers and trusted partners so they can perform those services.

The Services may use both temporary (“session”) and persistent cookies. The Help feature on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies. This may, however, impact the functionality of the Services.

You can see a list of cookies and similar technology in the Cookies List below. We currently use Google Analytics from Google Inc. to create anonymous usage statistics.

We may also share any of the categories of personal data listed above with third parties other than our affiliates for our business and commercial purposes including in the following situations:

1. a) Parties with whom we may share your personal data.

• Service Providers. We may share and use your information (including but not limited to, information from cookies, log files, metadata and usage data) with third party organizations that help us provide the Services to you, including telecommunications companies with whom you have a contractual relationship and through which you may receive access to the Services (for example through a bundled package), and payment processors (“Service Providers”). Our Service Providers will be given access to your information as is reasonably necessary to provide the Services under reasonable confidentiality terms.

If MUSIO or substantially all its assets are acquired by or sold to a third party, your personal data may be among the transferred assets.

1. b) Parties with whom you may choose to share your personal data.

Any personal identifiers (e.g. name) or audio, electronic, visual and similar information (e.g. picture) that you voluntarily share or disclose for posting to the Services may become available to the public. This can also include parties to whom you have given us consent to share such personal data, for example Facebook. If you enable the planned function “Connect to Facebook” in the settings of your Services account, we may share your favorites with Facebook, enabling your Facebook friends to see your favorites and enabling you to see your Facebook friends’ favorites. If you use the “share” function you may be able to post to your Facebook or Twitter account directly from the Services. Such posting might involve sharing personal data.

1. c) Responding to legal requests and preventing harm.

We may access, preserve and share your personal data with law enforcement, the courts, our advisors, attorneys, and others who participate in the legal process in response to a legal request (such as a search warrant, court order or subpoena) if we have a good faith belief that the law requires us to do so. This may include responding to legal requests from jurisdictions outside of the United States where we have a good faith belief that the response is required by law in that jurisdiction, affects users in that jurisdiction, and is consistent with internationally recognized standards. We may also access, preserve and share information with law enforcement, the courts, our advisors, attorneys, and others who participate in the legal process when we have a good faith belief it is necessary to: detect, prevent and address fraud and other illegal activity; to protect MUSIO, you and others, including as part of investigations; and to prevent death or imminent bodily harm. Information we receive about you may be accessed, processed and retained for an extended period of time when it is the subject of a legal request or obligation, governmental investigation, or investigations concerning possible violations of our terms or policies, or otherwise to prevent harm. By allowing for sharing and use of personal data for these purposes, MUSIO is not assuming any affirmative duty to undertake such actions.

6. STORING AND SECURING PERSONAL DATA

1. a) By registering for, accessing, visiting or otherwise using the Services, you consent to the transfer of your personal data to anywhere where MUSIO or its Service Providers maintain facilities, including facilities in another country.
2. b) We use commercially reasonable safeguards to help keep your personal data secure and to protect against accidental loss, destruction or damage.

9. CALIFORNIA NOTICE AND PRIVACY RIGHTS

We do not sell personal information, and we have not sold personal information since January 1, 2020, the date the CCPA went into effect. We also do not rent, sell, or share personal information (as defined by California Civil Code §1798.83) about you that we collect on the Services with other people or unaffiliated companies for their direct marketing purposes, unless we have your permission.

If you are a California resident under the age of 18 and you wish to remove publicly available content or information posted by you on the Services, please contact us at support@musio.com. The removal described in the proceeding sentence does not ensure complete or comprehensive removal of the content or information you posted.

A California consumer has the following rights: to request additional information about our data collection, use, disclosure, and sales practices in connection with the consumer’s personal information; to request the specific personal information collected about the consumer during the previous 12 months; and to request the deletion of the personal information we have about the consumer. A California consumer may not be discriminated against for exercising the consumer’s California privacy rights.

To make a request, you may email us at support@musio.com. In most cases, you will be required to provide your name, email address, and date of birth so that we can verify your request, and in some cases additional information may be required.

Please note that, when you make a request, we may require that you provide information and follow procedures so that we can verify your identity (and the applicable jurisdiction). The verification steps we take may differ depending on the request. Where possible, we will attempt to match the information that you provide in your request to information we already have on file to verify your identity. If we are able to verify your request, we will process it. If we cannot verify your request, we may ask you for additional information to help us do so. We will respond to your request within the 45-day time period required by applicable law. However, we may not always be able to fully comply with your request, and we will notify you in that event.

Under the CCPA, California consumers may use an authorized agent to make privacy rights requests. We require the authorized agent to provide us with proof of the California consumer’s written permission (for example, a power of attorney) that demonstrates authorization to submit a request for the California consumer. An authorized agent must follow the process described below to make a request, and we will also (a) require the authorized agent to verify the agent’s own identity and (b) confirm the agent’s authority with the California consumer about whom the request was made.
