This Agreement and the terms and conditions herein constitutes a binding legal agreement between You and 123RF.

123RF grants You a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use Audio Content according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If You are purchasing on behalf of a licensee ("Licensee"), You hereby represent and warrant that You are authorized to act on behalf of such Licensee and have full authority to bind the Licensee to this Agreement.

For the purposes of this Agreement, all terms and conditions of the Agreement as applicable to You shall apply equally to the Licensee (as the case may be).

123RF has used reasonable efforts to ascertain that the Audio Content do not originate from members of any Collection Societies and that no performing rights or other additional royalties are required to be paid to such organizations. However, in certain jurisdictions (e.g., France and Spain), You may be required to pay royalties to performing rights or other rights societies due to the exploitation of Audio Content (even if the contributor is not a member of any Collection Society in such jurisdiction(s)). You must determine if such requirements exist in the applicable jurisdiction and be solely responsible for any such applicable fees.

Should any provision of this Agreement be held to be void or invalid, that fact will not affect any other provision, and the remainder of this Agreement will be construed to most closely give effect to the parties' intention. Failure by 123RF to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision. The interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed according to international treaty provisions and other applicable laws.

This Agreement is effective until it is terminated. You can terminate this Agreement by (i) deleting and destroying all Audio Content downloaded by You and in Your possession, and any Licensed Work(s), and copies/accompanying materials thereof; and (ii) ceasing to use the Audio Content for any purpose. 123RF can terminate this Agreement without notice to You if You fail to comply with any of the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
