In case the Account Owner uses a large number of background activities simultaneously, Audiospace might have to increase the number of workers.
This increase in server workers is considered as an additional service which will be subject to Additional Fees for increased background activities for the Account Owner.
Audiospace will inform the Account Owner of such Additional Fees through his Primary Email Address.
Additional workers are charged at the then current price of USD 31.25 per worker per year. Audiospace may increase these Additional Fees at any time without prior notice to the Account Owner.
- Confidentiality
From time to time during the Term (as defined below), either party may disclose or make available to the other party information about its business affairs, products, confidential intellectual property, trade secrets, third-party confidential information, and other sensitive or proprietary information, whether orally or in written, electronic, visual or other form or media, marked, designated or otherwise identified as “confidential” (collectively, ”Confidential Information”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may disclose Confidential Information to the limited extent required in order to comply with the order of a court or other governmental body, or as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable law, provided that if permitted, the receiving party making the disclosure pursuant to the order shall first have given written notice to the disclosing party and made a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order. On the expiration or termination of the Term, the receiving party shall promptly return to the disclosing party all copies, whether in written, electronic, or other form or media, of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, or destroy all such copies and certify in writing to the disclosing party that such Confidential Information has been destroyed.

- General Conditions
The Terms of Service, including the documents it incorporates by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Audiospace and govern your use of the Services and your Account, superseding any prior agreements between you and Audiospace (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms of Service).
The failure of Audiospace to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms of Service, including all terms and conditions and other documents it incorporates by reference, is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, such provision will be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent allowed by law, and the remaining provision of the Terms of Service will remain in full force and effect.
Save for Audiospace and its affiliates, you or anyone accessing Audiospace Services pursuant to these Terms of Service, unless otherwise provided in these Terms of Service, no person or entity who is not a party to these Terms of Service will have any right to enforce any term of these Terms of Service, regardless of whether such person or entity has been identified by name, as a member of a class or as answering a particular description. For the avoidance of doubt, this will not affect the rights of any permitted assignee or transferee of these Terms.
The Terms of Service may be available in languages other than English. To the extent of any inconsistencies or conflicts between these English Terms of Service and Audiospace’s Terms of Service available in another language, the most current English version of the Terms of Service at https://www.theaudiospace.com/pages/legal will prevail. Any disputes arising out of these Terms of Service will be resolved in English unless otherwise determined by Audiospace (acting in its sole discretion) or as required by applicable law.
All the terms and provisions of the Terms of Service will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to the Terms of Service and to their respective heirs, successors, permitted assigns and legal representatives. Audiospace will be permitted to assign these Terms of Service without notice to you or consent from you. You will have no right to assign or otherwise transfer the Terms of Service, or any of your rights or obligations hereunder, to any third party without Audiospace’s prior written consent, to be given or withheld in Audiospace’s sole discretion.
If any provision, or portion of the provision, in these Terms of Service is, for any reason, held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, then such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision (or the unaffected portion of the provision) of the Terms of Service, and the Terms of Service will be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision, or portion of the provision, had never been contained within the Terms of Service.
Each party acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under Section 7 (Confidentiality) or, in the case of you, your obligations under Section 1.3, would cause the other party irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the other party will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity, or otherwise.
