King of Piano Terms and Conditions of Use

Effective as from 26 November 2009

This document (the ”Agreement”) is a legally binding agreement between you and Game-n-Gain AB (“GNG”) that governs your use of GNG’s software application King of Piano (”KOP, as defined below” ), both available at the Game-n-Gain site and via partner sites. KOP may be assessed as a monthly, 3-monthly or yearly subscription to an advertisement version, or a version of the Premium Service without ads but with sponsors. Both versions are collectively referred to as the “KOP Service”. Please note that you must read and agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement before you use the KOP Software Application or the KOP Service. If you do not agree to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, you may NOT use the KOP Software Application or the KOP Service.

1. Contract formation

By ticking the “I agree” box or pressing the “I Accept” button when creating a KOP account or by using the KOP Software Application (including but not limited to the downloading of said application) or the KOP Service, you confirm that you are 18 years of age or more, or that you have received your parent’s or guardian’s consent to enter into this Agreement, that you have your residence in one of the countries in which KOP provides the KOP Service, that any registration information that you submit to KOP is true, accurate and complete, that you will update such information in order to keep it current, and that you agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the KOP Privacy Policy.

2. Changes to the Agreement

KOP reserves a right to make changes to this Agreement at its sole discretion. Any material changes will be posted on the KOP website and it is your responsibility to check the website for such postings from time to time. The continued use of the KOP Software Application or the KOP Service after the posting of changes to this Agreement will constitute an acceptance of such changes.

3. Grant of license

KOP grants you a limited, trial, non-exclusive, revocable license to make personal non-commercial use of the KOP Software Application and the KOP Service and to receive by stream the media content made available through the KOP Service in your home country. You do not have a right to transfer or sublicense your rights under this Agreement.

4. Purchase of the KOP Paid for Service

By ticking the “I agree” box or pressing the “I Accept” button you agree to pay the fee for access to the applicable KOP Paid for Service. Such fee will be charged to the credit card you have designated as the credit card to be billed for your purchase. By designating a credit card to be billed, you confirm that you are authorised to make such purchase and that you are the holder of such credit card (i.e. that the credit card is issued in your name). All prices stated on the KOP website are inclusive of VAT and other applicable taxes and fees.
KOP accepts VISA and MasterCard as forms of payment.

5. Prices

GNG reserves the right to change the price for the KOP Paid for Service at any time. Such changed price will take effect after the expiry of the then-current paid for period (i.e. the term that you have already paid for). Any new prices will be posted on the KOP website and it is your responsibility to check the website for such postings from time to time. If you do not wish to be bound by such changed price relating to your Premium Service you may terminate your subscription of your Premium Service in accordance with what is stated in the Section of Term and termination. The continued use of the KOP Paid for Service after the posting of a new price constitutes an acceptance of such new price.

6. Automatic subscription renewal

Your subscription to the Premium Service will automatically renew at the end of each subscription term unless you terminate your subscription prior to the end of such subscription term in accordance with what is stated in the Section of Term and termination. The renewed subscription will have the same duration as the subscription being renewed (one month, one year etc.). At the time of renewal the credit card you have designated to be billed for the purchase of the Premium Service will automatically be billed with the applicable amount.

7. Cooling-off period

When you log in to the KOP Paid for Service after having purchased such service you have started to use the KOP Paid for Service. You agree and understand that once you have started using the KOP Paid for Service you will not have a right to cancel or withdraw from your purchase of such service.
