End User License Agreement (EULA)

Applies to: All ZEKAVEO Products
Effective Date: 2025 onwards
Licensor: ZEKAVEO

1. INTRODUCTION

This End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal contract between you (the "Licensee") and ZEKAVEO ("Licensor") governing the use of sound effects, music, and related audio assets (collectively, the "Products"). By purchasing, downloading, or using any ZEKAVEO Product, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the terms set forth in this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use or download the Products.

2. LICENSE GRANT

Upon full payment, ZEKAVEO grants the Licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide, perpetual license to use the Products in connection with audio, visual, and interactive media projects.

This includes, but is not limited to: music production, film, television, video games, theatre, podcasts, live sound, applications, interactive installations, and VR/AR experiences.

All use is royalty-free for commercial and non-commercial purposes, provided that the Products are used as components of a larger creative work and not as standalone content. Ownership of the Products and all associated intellectual property remains the exclusive property of ZEKAVEO.

"Royalty-free" means you do not owe ongoing payments for authorized uses, but this does not grant ownership, resale, or redistribution rights.

3. LICENSE TYPES

(a) Single-User License:
Permits one individual user to install and utilize the Products on two personal computers/devices owned and operated by that user.

(b) Multi-User / Studio License:
Required when multiple individuals or systems within a team, company, or institution require access to the Products. Multi-user or enterprise licensing must be obtained directly from ZEKAVEO in writing. Pricing and terms will be determined on a case-by-case basis.

4. OWNERSHIP AND COPYRIGHT

All Products remain the sole property of ZEKAVEO and are protected under international copyright law. This license does not transfer ownership. You are granted only the limited rights specified in this EULA. Unauthorized copying, distribution, claiming authorship, or using the Products outside the license terms may result in legal action.

5. PERMITTED USES

The Licensee may:

Use, edit, modify, and incorporate the Products into personal or commercial projects.
Combine the Products with other media as part of a final creative work distributed for sale, performance, or broadcast.
Store the Products on up to two personal computers/devices, provided that the files are not shared or distributed outside the Licensee's control.
Use the Products indefinitely without the obligation to pay additional royalties or license fees.

6. RESTRICTIONS

The Licensee may not:

Repackage, resell, sublicense, or redistribute the raw audio files, whether modified or unmodified, as part of another sound library, sample pack, plugin, or similar product.
Upload, share, or make the raw files accessible on public servers, peer-to-peer platforms, or cloud services intended for general access.
Use any part of the Products to train, test, or develop artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, or data modeling systems.
Claim ownership or authorship of the original recordings or represent the Products as their own creation.
Use the Products in any manner that is defamatory, unlawful, or violates third-party rights.
Assign, transfer, or sublicense this license without prior written consent from ZEKAVEO.

7. PURCHASES AND DELIVERY

All Products are distributed digitally through ZEKAVEO's own sales platforms or authorized third-party distributors such as Gumroad, itch.io, or similar services.

Delivery occurs electronically upon purchase confirmation. Due to the digital nature of the Products, all sales are final.

If a Product is found to be defective or corrupted, ZEKAVEO will, upon request, provide a replacement copy at no additional cost. Refunds are not available once a download has been initiated.

8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

All Products are provided "as is," without warranty of any kind, whether express or implied. ZEKAVEO shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the use or inability to use the Products, including but not limited to loss of data, revenue, or business opportunity.

The Licensee accepts full responsibility for verifying that the Products are suitable for their intended purpose.

9. TERMINATION

This license shall remain valid and enforceable until terminated as outlined herein. ZEKAVEO reserves the right to revoke or terminate this license immediately and without prior notice if the Licensee fails to comply with any term or condition of this Agreement. Upon such breach, the license will terminate automatically without any notice, and all rights granted to the Licensee shall cease. The Licensee must promptly destroy or permanently delete all copies of the Products, including any backup or derivative files, in their possession or control.

The Licensee may voluntarily terminate this license at any time by deleting all ZEKAVEO Products and related materials. Termination shall not relieve the Licensee of any obligations arising prior to termination. Provisions protecting the proprietary and intellectual property rights of ZEKAVEO shall remain in effect after termination.

10. INDEMNIFICATION

The Licensee agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ZEKAVEO, its owners, affiliates, and representatives from and against any and all claims, damages, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of the Licensee's use or misuse of the Products or any violation of this Agreement.

11. GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Australia, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of Australian courts.

12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the Licensee and ZEKAVEO regarding the Products and supersedes any prior agreements, representations, or communications, whether written or oral, related to the subject matter herein.

13. CONTENT ID AND COPYRIGHT CLAIMS

The Licensee may not register, submit, or claim ownership of any ZEKAVEO Products or derivative works containing the Products through automated content recognition systems, including but not limited to YouTube Content ID, Facebook Rights Manager, or similar copyright claim services. Any attempt to register ZEKAVEO Products in such systems constitutes a violation of this Agreement and may result in immediate termination of the license, removal of registered claims, and potential legal action.

The Licensee may use ZEKAVEO Products in their projects uploaded to platforms that use such systems, provided the Licensee does not attempt to claim exclusive ownership of the underlying audio content.
