Termos de uso

Atualizado em: Terça-feira 2 de Junho de 2015

• A exemplo da maioria dos sites de grande porte, temos algumas regras que você precisa seguir ao usar a Last.fm. Essas regras não são apenas "lero-lero" comum – são termos de uso legal e, desse modo, recomendamos que você os leia atentamente para que saiba com o que concordou.
• Como acontece em todos os sites, a Last.fm, seus serviços e software serão alterados ao longo do tempo, tanto em termos do conteúdo exibido quando da funcionalidade oferecida. Reservamo-nos o direito de fazer essas alterações e de alterar os termos junto com elas. O software disponibilizado para download pela Last.fm permanece como propriedade da Last.fm, e reservamo-nos o direito também de atualizá-lo e modificá-lo.
• Não reproduza nenhuma parte do site ou do conteúdo sem a nossa permissão.
• Muitas informações e conteúdo da Last.fm são fornecidos por terceiros – tanto usuários quanto outros – e a precisão e confiabilidade de tais informações são de inteira responsabilidade dessas partes. Da mesma forma, você encontrará links na Last.fm para outros sites; a Last.fm não pode ser responsabilizada pelo contéudo desses sites. Os links, assim como os demais dados adicionados pela comunidade Last.fm, são de inteira responsabilidade dos indivíduos que os adicionaram.
• Ao usar a Last.fm, você concorda com nossa Política de Privacidade - leia a Política de Privacidade.
• Se você encontrar no site algum conteúdo que lhe pertença e que acredite estar sendo usado sem a sua permissão, leia a Seção 10 dos Termos de Uso para obter uma descrição detalhada sobre o que fazer a respeito. Levamos muito a sério a violação de direitos, desse modo, forneça todas as informações especificadas na seção Seção 10 para que possamos agir com firmeza com relação a essa questão.
• Temos uma Política de Uso Aceitável detalhada, mas, a exemplo das Diretrizes da Comunidade, elas se resumem a alguns conceitos razoavelmente simples: comporte-se adequadamente, respeite os outros membros da comunidade e use o bom senso. Se acreditamos que alguém não está se portando de maneira justa e dentro do espírito das diretrizes, podemos banir esse usuário a nosso único e exclusivo critério. Não gostamos de fazer isso, mas às vezes é a resposta mais apropriada.
• Se você participar de uma concorrência ou utilizar um software ligado à Last.fm, certifique-se de ler também os Termos e Condições que acompanham tal software, porque eles podem conter condições além das explicitadas neste documento.
• Ao usar a Last.fm e todos os seus software e serviços, você os aceita “no estado original”. Como seres humanos, temos falhas e estamos constantemente atualizando e melhorando todos os aspectos da Last.fm, eliminando bugs recém-encontrados e fazendo mudanças sutis em funcionalidades como os algoritmos de recomendações. Como resultado, a Last.fm jamais deve ser considerada como um “produto final, acabado” e, ao usar a Last.fm, você aceita esse produto – com imperfeições e tudo o mais.
• A Last.fm está sediada em Londres – gostamos bastante daqui – e este documento deve ser interpretado juntamente com as leis da Inglaterra e do País de Gales.

You hereby waive any moral rights (or any similar rights in any jurisdiction) you may have in and to any of Your Upload Information, even if such material is altered or changed in a manner not agreeable to you. You agree and understand that Last.fm, its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, and partners are not obligated to use Your Upload Information submitted through the Website or otherwise, and may alternatively choose, in its sole discretion, to discard, refuse to post, limit or block access to Your Uploaded Information without any liability whatsoever.

You acknowledge that the Web Site, through Last.fm, its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, and partners undertakes no obligation to pre-screen Your Upload Information, but that it has the right, in its sole discretion to monitor, modify, transmit over various networks, refuse, move, block access to or remove any of Your Upload Information. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with, the use of any of Your Upload Information including, but not limited to, any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of Your Upload Information. Since Last.fm, its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, and partners may not pre-screen user generated content, you may bear legal responsibility for others' exposure to any offensive indecent or objectionable content in Your Upload Information.
