You must comply with all applicable copyright and other laws in your use of the Music Content. Except as set forth in Section 2.1 above, you may not redistribute, transmit, assign, sell, broadcast, rent, share, lend, modify, adapt, edit, sub-license or otherwise transfer or use the Music Content.

Your other statutory rights are not affected. We have no liability for Music Content you find to be offensive, indecent or objectionable.

2.5 Unique Identifiers
We reserve the right to insert identifiers in the metadata that accompanies Music Content from our company that uniquely identify it as Music Content you have purchased from us ("Unique Identifiers"). These Unique Identifiers may contain information that can be used to identify you as the owner of the Music Content. For example, these Unique Identifiers may include a random number we assign to your order or copy, purchase date and time, an indicator that the music was downloaded from this Store, codes that identify the album and song (the UPC and ISRC), our digital signature, an identifier that can be used to determine whether the audio has been modified, and an indicator whether the music was purchased from this Store. You consent to the inclusion of these Unique Identifiers in the metadata of files you download containing purchased Music Content that may identify you as the owner of the purchased Music Content, and to the storage of those files on any device you use to download purchased Music Content, in order to allow us to meet requirements of the rights owners. These Unique Identifiers do not affect the playback experience in any way. Unless explicitly permitted under applicable mandatory law, you may not, and you will not encourage, assist or authorise any other person to, modify, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble, or otherwise tamper with, the Unique Identifiers, whether in whole or in parts.

 4.1 Place of Jurisdiction
Place of fulfillment for all services is the place of business of Passion Factory in Berlin/Germany.

4.2 Place of Fulfillment
As far as the customer is a merchant according to the Commercial Code of Germany (HGB), a legal entity under public law or special fund under public law, then Berlin/Germany is the place of general jurisdiction. In such case, Passion Factory is also entitled to sue the customer according to the opinion of Passion Factory at their resident court. The same applies if the customer does not have their place of general jurisdiction in Germany, relocates their place of residence or habitual residence abroad after conclusion of the agreement, or their place of residence or habitual residence is unknown at the time of filing of an action.

According to these general terms and conditions the agreement is exclusively subject to the law of the Federal Republic of Germany.

4.4 Severability Clause
If individual provisions of these general terms and conditions are ineffective or oppose the statutory regulations, the rest of the agreement remains unaffected.
