1 -
Copyright

The JGC has a
contract with the SPA, settling the copyright of this entity with all
os sold use licenses here. Under this contract, the license is
intended only for private use, that is, by itself. Does not allow
public exhibition.
For in place
of the Copyright downloaded contents of this site, may be used in
public spaces, there must be a Public Display Licence issued to the
owner of the space in question. This license can be applied to the
SPA and has a global character, since, in addition to karaoke,
includes other areas such as music, live music, dancing, TV, etc..
The form of
the license is available at the SPA. Click
here to view the form.
You may also
consult the price list of SPA for this and other types of licenses. Click
here to see the complete price list.
To the
knowledge of all our customers, here is the link to download the
Declaration issued by the SPA and attesting the conformity of our
site, and the terms on which licenses are granted and the use of the
contents: Download
SPA Statement (PDF)
You can
confirm by the SPA statement, that each content can be downloaded
only once to any one physical media: CDR, DVDR, USB keys, PC, are
just some examples.
What is not
allowed is to put the same content in more than one support, unless
they are purchased more than one license for each content. Thus the
number of times is equal to the number of licenses.

2 -
Related
Rights

Associated
with a piece of music, and beyond the Copyright there are other
rights related to the producers, performers, etc.. They are called
Related Rights, as defined in the Code of Copyright and Related
Rights (download
PDF).
So, you also
need a license to host Public Viewing of Related Rights. These
licenses are issued by PASSMUSICA. You can check the conditions in www.passmusica.pt.

IGAC

The IGAC,
Inspecção Geral das Actividades Culturais - General
Inspection of Cultural Activities - whose mission is the
protection of Copyright and Related Rights, as well as the
supervision of artistic performances in nature, among others.
Presented to
the project www.karaoketosing.com to IGAC, was possible to obtain a
declaration of this entity, which for all intents and purposes, we
will leave here for download:IGAC
Declaration about Karaoketosing(PDF)
We strongly
advise the content users of this website to print multiple copies of
this Declaration (as well as the SPA referred to above), if they are
to use the contents in public spaces, in order to surrender to
authorities for inspection and supervision, if is the case.
The IGAC
Declaration is clear that the content downloaded from
www.karaoketosing.com are legal and may be used publicly since there
are Public Viewing Licenses issued by the holders of rights in this
case PASSMÚSICA and SPA, as mentioned above. And the cool part
about it on content is carried out.
Like IGAC
sets, the buyers of use licenses in www.karaoketosing.com must be
accompanied by the documents of purchase invoice / receipt and a
Certificate of Lawfulness issued from our site, and display of
licenses public.
However, there
are a few rules to follow, which have nothing to do with the contents
of karaoke, but with the actual activity of the establishments where
they perform karaoke or even of the very karaoke jokey. As stated in
the Declaration of IGAC, and if applicable, are:
- License of Representation
- Registration
of the IGAC Promoter
All
information of these procedures can be seen in www.igac.pt
in the menu on the left on Serviços e Áreas de Actuação

4 - Other
informations

We have
noticed that some customers when register on our site do not use a
valid ID number. Others place the name of only one name and some
incomplete addresses.
You are also
advised that the correct identification is the responsibility of the
customer who registers on our site. In the case of someone who
intends to use the content publicly, could have problems because the
documents issued by the site bring this information wrong or
incomplete, giving rise to non-compliance in case of inspection by
the authorities, whereupon the client unable fully demonstrate that
it is the buyer himself.
We recommend
that all who are in this situation to review your data and if
necessary, change your registration to get the correct data.
For security
reasons, the change of name, country and ID number can only be done
by us and not by the client in changing data. If so, send us an email
using the same e-mail record, indicating the password to enter the
site and the personal code that are in my area (a large
sequence of digits), we changed the incorrect data.
Another aspect
yet and we have noticed is that some clients register with incorrect
emails. Here are unable to receive automatic e-mail registration
confirmation, sending confirmation of purchase and / or payment, list
of contents and Invoice / Receipt.
We advise that
if you have registered and have never received any email from
karaoketosing.com, check your email login and if necessary amending
it to a correct email the My Area.
We hope that
these explanations would clarify this whole aspect of public display.
But if you have any questions, please send an email to info@karaoketosing.com
