2. THE STORAGE OF YOUR DATA

The storage and transfer of your data

We transfer personal data relating to the customer service system within the Kelosound group in order to identify our service system customers. The data from our customer service system can be seen by employees working for Kelosound Oy, and authorised subcontractors, who are all bound by professional secrecy. As a consequence, Kelosound Oy’s affiliates outside can get access to the customer service system information. The access is, however, limited to the purpose of identifying the service system customer. In addition, Kelosound Oy may disclose information relating to the service system customers (such as name, email, other contact details and company name) to advertising network service providers in order to conduct targeted marketing. The recipient of the personal data is in that case Kelosound Oy’s authorized service provider, which processes the personal data transferred by Kelosound Oy in order to offer marketing services to Kelosound Oy. Our advertising network service providers may store the data outside of the EU/EEA. If personal data is transferred outside the EU/EEA, we will ensure that appropriate contractual measures (e.g. using standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission) are applied to the transfer, the transfer is lawful, and that the processing and confidentiality are in compliance with the applicable laws.

Kelosound Oy does not transfer your personal data outside of our organization apart from the following situations:

• You have given your consent to the transfer

• The transfer is based on law

• The personal data is transferred to an authorized service provider of Kelosound Oy, and the terms of the processing of personal data have been agreed upon with the service provider

The erasure of your data

We process some of the personal data relating to your service system customer relationship solely based on the contractual relationship. We delete such data as soon as possible when you no longer are our service system customer. We store the personal data relating to your purchases and claims as long as it is necessary, for instance for defending legal claims, or for complying with bookkeeping and legal obligations.

The analytics data of our website is stored for 26 months. An example of analytics data is the products you have searched for on our website.

You may, at any time, unsubscribe from our mailing list and prohibit us from sending you electronic direct marketing.

Cookie policy

Kelosound Oy uses cookies on the website kelosound.com. Therefore, Kelosound Oy is obliged to inform the users of the website of the use of cookies.

The disclosure obligation includes the obligation to disclose the method of collection and use of such data.

The goal of the disclosure obligation is to create transparency in the processes that support the user’s navigation through the Internet by collecting data about the user. In addition, the provisions guarantee that the user may supervise the use of such data.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored by the browser to the user’s computer or terminal when using the internet. Cookies are used for a variety of reasons, the most common of which is the appropriate operation of a website.

With a cookie stored in the user’s computer or terminal, the website can remember the user’s device and collect information of the pages and functions used with the user’s browser. This way companies, such as Kelosound Oy, can find out how popular individual pages are, or what pages are visited rarely, so that they can be improved.

Providing services on the Internet practically and technically requires that the cookies are stored. For example, in electronic commerce, it is important that the website remembers the user’s visit in the online store and what products the user has viewed and added to the shopping cart. The cookies also make sure that the website remembers the content of the user’s shopping cart if, for example, the user navigates backward to view other products.

Cookies cannot be used for determining the user’s identity, i.e., name or other personal data. Neither will cookies spread computer viruses or other harmful software, nor can they collect information of the other activities the user uses the computer for.

Why does Kelosound Oy use cookies?

Kelosound Oy uses cookies for a variety of purposes. Firstly, cookies are used for collecting statistical data. Thus, Kelosound Oy can investigate how a website is used and thus improve the usability of the website. Naturally, statistical data is anonymous.

Kelosound Oy also uses cookies for technical reasons. As stated above, using cookies is necessary in order for the online store to work. Kelosound Oy’s online store must remember the user’s login data and content of the shopping cart, which can be done only by using cookies.

Kelosound Oy also uses cookies for marketing so that it can monitor the use of various different websites. These cookies are used for assembling profiles of the users’ search and browsing behaviour.

In addition, Kelosound Oy uses cookies for monitoring the users’ browsing habits and functions. Kelosound Oy uses the collected data to show content targeted to the users.

An informative banner will appear at the top of the page, explaining that the site uses cookies, providing a link to further information regarding the cookies. If the user does not click the link but proceeds further to the website, Kelosound Oy’s cookies will start working and the banner will disappear.

The user may forbid the storing of cookies in the computer with the browser settings. However, in that case it should be understood that not all functions of the website will work optimally without the cookies. The user can always check the cookies stored in the computer and alter and delete stored cookies.

If the user does not wish to use Kelosound Oy’s cookies, the user can, with most modern browsers, select advanced cookie settings in Internet settings and add the domain to the list of websites whose cookies are not enabled.

Any use of the content and material other than as authorised under this License or Finnish Copyright Law is prohibited.

The Licensor grants the Licensee (“You”) a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual license to exercise the rights that are contained herein, in consideration of Your acceptance of these License Terms and Conditions and Kelosound Oy’s Terms and Conditions.

1. Definitions

  • “Basic Sound License” means the sounds in the starting package, which will come together with the product.
  • “Special Sound License” will be granted for sounds case by case. These sounds can be customised or special sounds.
  • “Temporary Sound License” means a sound or sound package, which can be ordered from the sound library.
  • “We” or “Licensor” means Kelosound Oy.
  • “Service” means the service and mobile application, which will come together with the product. The Service includes all the content.
  • “Content” means the copyrightable material of authorship offered under the terms of this License (including the sounds, soundscapes, audio loops, parts of sound, images, photos, texts, poems and other materials).
  • “You” or “Licensee” means the end user (either an individual or entity) exercising rights under this License.

 

2. Fair Use Rights

Nothing in this License is intended to reduce, limit, or restrict any rights arising from fair use, or on the exclusive rights of the copyright owner under copyright law or other applicable laws.

3. License Grant

Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, revocable, perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright) license to exercise the rights of the Service as stated below.

You may play and listen to the sounds according to the following sound licenses:

i. Basic Sound License

The Basic Sound License, which will come with the sounds attached to the starting sound package of the product, guarantees the right to listen to the sounds for as long as the product functions properly. The length of the Basic Sound License is dependent of the age and operability of the product. The starting package sounds are granted for the use of the Licensee when purchasing the product. The License is applied only to the starting sound package chosen by the Licensee. The Licensee can only have one Basic Sound License.

With the Basic Sound License, the Licensee can listen to the sounds within the Service from the product with no time limitations, as many times and as long as the Licensee wants, in any place.

ii. Special Sound License

With the Special Sound License, sounds will be granted for the use of the Licensee for a certain period of time, or as long as the product functions properly. The Special Sound License is only granted in special cases. With this License, the Licensee will be given a special or customised sound(s) to use. The rights to the Special Sound License are granted case by case.

With the Special Sound License, the Licensee can listen to the sounds within the Service from the product according to the limitations determined by the Licensor, and for as long as agreed upon, in any place. The pricing of the Special Sound License will be determined by the Licensor.

iii. Temporary Sound License

The Licensee has the possibility to buy more sounds with a Temporary Sound License. The orders of the sounds are made within the mobile application’s sound library by ordering the sounds for use with an open-ended agreement using a monthly payment. The sounds are valid and in use for listening until the Licensee terminates the sound order. The order period will automatically continue as a monthly one. If the sound period is terminated, meaning that the Licensee wants to end the usage of the sound, the sound will disappear from use after the last paid month, and before the start of the new monthly payment.

The Temporary Sound License is valid during the chosen order period, and after it ends with termination, the sound will disappear after the paid month. If the Licensee wants to listen to the same sound again after termination, the sound requires a new order from the sound library, and when done so, the Temporary Sound License will be valid again. The Temporary Sound License is always valid, when one or more sounds have been bought.

During the bought order period, with the Temporary Sound License, the Licensee can listen to the sounds within the Service from the product with no other limitations, as many times, in any place as the Licensee wants, and as long as the Licence is valid and the Licensee pays for the sounds as a monthly payment.

Please note the following license restrictions regarding our content.

You may not:

  • Resell, rent, sublicense, lend, transmit, and/or distribute or re-distribute the sounds ‘as they are’, or as altered in any context; this includes no rights to re-sell the sounds on CDs, torrents, or any other online distribution.
  • Use any sound, audio loop, or part of sound to create expansion packs to distribute them through any mobile applications, plugins, or similar products. This includes no rights to put our sounds and available content on any CD(s), websites, and/or digital platforms of any kind (either for a fee or for sale).
  • Use any sound, audio loop, or part of sound for any trademark uses. This includes attempting to or actually registering any sound, audio loop, or part of sound as a trademark. You may also not use them in film or ringtone.
  • Copy or re-record the sounds from the KELOSOUND® and SAUNASOUND® products.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the firmware of Kelosound Oy, except and to the extent that applicable law permits, despite this limitation.

Notwithstanding the above, the Licensor reserves the right to release the Service under different license terms or to stop distributing the Service at any time; provided, however that any such election will not serve to withdraw this License (or any other license that has been, or is required to be, granted under the terms of this License), and this License will continue in full force and effect unless terminated as stated above.

8. Miscellaneous

If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the terms of this License, and without further action by the parties to this agreement, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.
