In addition, we will assume that you have agreed to all conditions stated herein and also to all other policies posted on any of these websites. For this reason, we recommend that you read this document carefully BEFORE you start using any of our websites or downloading our apps. We also recommend that you read all the other policies we have adopted, such as our Privacy Policy.

Letras Academy

Letras Academy is Letras.com language teaching service. You can subscribe to plans to access language course(s) and other resources. In addition to these costly resources, Letras Academy offers free features such as the Letras Academy Blog and the Placement Test.

The Letras Academy subscription allows the access to Letras without any ad interruption on all platforms (web and app).

Letras Premium

Letras Premium is the subscription service that allows you to use the Letras.com website and app without the interruption of ads. The ads removed are those shown by Letras itself on the website and app. Ads shown by YouTube and Spotify, for example, continue to appear even when the subscription is active, as they are served by third-party services incorporated into Letras. People can choose to subscribe to Letras Premium on any device that allows it.

Furthermore, if the free trial period is available for any paid Letras service, it is restricted to one use per account. In other words, after taking advantage of the free trial period of a subscription, if the person chooses to cancel it and re-subscribe at a later date, the free trial period will not apply again.

Register

Let us suppose, then, that this is the first time you are accessing a website of our company and that you have already read and agreed to these Terms of Use. You may continue to browse freely, without having to register, by visiting all the pages available to non-registered users. However, if you want to participate more directly in the features offered by our sites, you will need to fill out a registration form.

When registering, it is essential that you fill in all the fields indicated as mandatory and that you only enter correct, accurate and true information on the form. In addition, we request that you update your personal information whenever there is a change. Incidentally, we reserve the right to use all valid and possible means to identify our users, in order to avoid fraud and false profiles. If you would like more information on this, we suggest you read our Privacy Policy.

Use of the service

Websites, applications and functionality owned by us are available only to people who have full legal capacity to contract them under Brazilian law. Therefore, people who do not have this capacity, including minors (people under 18) who must be assisted or represented by their parents, guardians or legal representatives. The same goes for people who have been temporarily or permanently disabled by us due to inappropriate use of the sites.

Nor is the same person allowed to have more than one registration. If we detect duplicate entries, we may unify or even permanently disable them without notice.

Login and password

At the end of the registration, you will need to define a login and a password, which must be informed to each access. But be careful: the password and the login must be kept by you safely, since you will be fully responsible for the consequences of its use. For this reason, we do not recommend that you tell any such data to others. If you know of any unauthorized use of your login and password, we request you to notify us immediately by e-mail (contato@letras.mus.br, otherwise you will be held responsible for the consequences of such misuse.

We undertake not to use the registration information provided by you to perform unlawful activities, but only for those expressly permitted by Brazilian law and/or these Terms of Use.

You may request Letras, at any time, to permanently delete your personal data that has been provided in the registration. To do so, just send us an e-mail (contato@letras.mus.br). In any case, the hypotheses of mandatory record keeping provided for in the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet (Law No 12.965) or the aggregated and non-identifiable data for statistical purposes are excluded.

Content posting

It is important to clarify that we, from Vignoli, are mere " application providers " according to the Internet Civil Framework. In other words, we are simply the owners of the sites and their platforms. Our mission is to disseminate knowledge, exercising a clear activity of musical formation, inspired by the highest precepts of democratization and universality of education. We are not responsible for launch or posting any content on our sites (unless are those of our company), and posting content is, therefore, a faculty exclusive to our users.

For this reason, as mere providers, we are not responsible for the posted content. This is up to the users. Also for this reason, it is very important that you, as a user, pay close attention to the content posted on any of our sites, such as lyrics, ciphers, tabs, videos, photos, music files or any other kind of content, avoiding actions such as infringing copyright, personality rights (such as image, voice and third party name) or trademark rights.

Regarding copyright, we assume that you will post on our sites only free and/or licensed content that does not infringe the rights of third parties. Since we do not control the content posted by our users (which would be humanly and technologically impossible!), we rely on the responsible conduct and common sense of our users and partners.

Our responsibility is limited, it is important to say, to remove online content, whenever we receive a specific court order accordingly. This is a consequence of the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet (article 19). In addition, we suggest you read the next topic of the Terms of Use, which deals with the removal of online content.

By accepting these Terms of Use, you also agree that any and all content that has been posted by you, yours or from any third party, is used on all of our sites (even if the posting was made on a single site) as well as on our social networks. In addition, you allow content to be edited by other registered users, who may suggest adjustments, propose arrangements and modifications, developing a true collaborative platform that has as its sole purpose the free dissemination of quality music knowledge and training. Specifically on the Palco MP3 site, we may use photos and graphics present on the Palco MP3 artist page, official or unofficial sites and social networks to apply to the main page featured images. With this, bands and artists must agree that Palco MP3 makes use of the items mentioned for the sole purpose of disclosure on the site itself and official social networks. Finally, you also allow our sites to link advertisements, including to the content you have posted, without restriction.

You warrant that no use of the content posted by you will imply payment of any kind, and its availability is always free, if met by other users the conditions provided in these Terms of Use.

Copyright infringement report

If any person or company understands that certain content posted by one of our users violates your copyrights or personality rights, you may send us an e-mail (contato@letras.mus.br), describing the fact, indicating precisely all the URLs (links) that contain the respective contents and proving the quality of holder of that right by suitable means.

Although the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet only requires an application provider to remove content after receiving a specific court order, we reserve the right to remove contents even without receiving a court order, whenever we detect a situation that may consist in a serious violation of rights. This does not mean, however, that we are liable for damages resulting from the maintenance of the online content from the moment of the receipt of a notification or e-mail informing the alleged violation. No, removing the contents before receiving a court order is a prerogative, our right, not properly an obligation.

In addition, you, the user, fully accept that any content that you post on any of our sites may be removed without prior notice. In any event, you will be notified of any allegations of copyright infringement involving content you have posted, and you may defend yourself by submitting your case. In addition, you also authorize us to pass on your personal data supplied in registration, as well as your Internet Protocol (IP), at the request of the Judiciary. None of these acts adopted by us will, therefore, have the potential to cause damages, being fully accepted by you, who can not seek compensation from our company.

Obligations assumed by the user

Any reference to products, services, processes or other information regarding third parties, by indication of trade name, trademark, manufacturer, supplier or others, does not constitute or imply endorsement, sponsorship or recommendation by us.

Tolerance

No omission or delay by us in exercising our rights under these Terms of Use, our other policies or provided by law implies or means waiver of them.

Alterations to the Terms of Use

The Terms of Use may be modified and updated by us freely, at any time, in order to adapt them to legislative developments or even to insert new business practices, and the changes will be effective immediately, if no other period has been indicated in the new version of the Terms of Use. It is important, therefore, that you always read this document before using one of our sites. It may contain a change you do not agree with. After all, your continued use of our sites after the posting of changes will constitute your full tacit acceptance of such changes.

Applicable Law and Choice of Forum

For integration and presentation of video content, our website uses YouTube plug-ins. The provider of the video portal is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with an integrated YouTube plug-in, it connects to YouTube servers. YouTube will have access to which of our sites you have visited. YouTube can link your browsing behavior directly to your personal profile, if you’re signed in to your YouTube account. When you log out previously, you can avoid this.

By using the YouTube player you agree to YouTube's Terms of Service (https://www.youtube.com/t/terms).
