• You may terminate this agreement and cancel your account at any time.
• The maximum allowable amount of music data uploaded to the site for the 2012 Music Awards cannot exceed 300 MB per artist. Should you upload more than 300 MB of music data, files exceeding the 300 MB limit may be deleted or not accepted at the discretion of youbloom.
• Contestants, voters and any/or all users of the youbloom Music Awards agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions in order to be eligible to enter/use the youbloom Music Awards.

This is provided to answer some immediate questions you may have, but you must still read the Terms and Conditions to fully understand what you are bound by and accepting to use youbloom.com.

The youbloom Music Awards

Agreeing to this set of Terms and Conditions, by reference, includes the rules for the youbloom Music Awards. Please refer to the complete youbloom Music Awards Rules as posted on youbloom.com for each year of the Awards. However, regardless of the particular Awards year, the following shall apply:

Rules for Voting
A voter is defined as one unique individual and every voter is limited to the rules for voting at all stages of the Music Awards. Voters are limited to the rules on voting regardless of the number of accounts, computers used, IP addresses or email addresses owned and/or established by the voter.

You may be disqualified for false registration, making false claims, misrepresentation or any other behavior, action or activity that youbloom, in its sole discretion, deems to be "cheating."

youbloom reserves the right in its sole discretion to reduce the vote count of, or disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the entry process or the operation of the competition or to be acting in violation of the Official Rules or in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner. Moreover, any attempt by any person OR ENTITY to deliberately damage youbloom's web site or undermine the legitimate operation of the competition may be in violation of criminal and civil laws and, should such an attempt be made, youbloom reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law and to seek criminal prosecution.

youbloom's failure to enforce any term of the Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of this provision. All Music Awards results will be reviewed by youbloom to ensure accuracy before the final list of winners for the Music Awards is posted. Voters or contestants found to be committing fraud or attempted gaming may be disqualified from the Music Awards. Inappropriate or misclassified songs may be disqualified from the Music Awards. youbloom reserves the right to update the results of the Music Awards as needed should fraudulent behavior be determined and entries may be disqualified.

youbloom shall at all times attempt to enforce the rules and resolve problems in the Music Awards to the best of our ability and based upon the information available to us at any particular point in time. However, there may arise circumstances in which youbloom does not become aware of infringements to the rules or of other problems with sufficient time to apply an appropriate remedy, and in such cases we shall not be held liable.

Taxes
youbloom may deduct withholding taxes, as required by legislation, on any payments made to Music Awards Winners. On payment of such withholding tax to the relevant tax authority, youbloom will provide written confirmation to Music Awards Winners that it has paid such withholding to the relevant tax authority on Music Awards Winner's behalf.

If you are a California, United States resident, you waive California Civil Code 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."

Notices for International Use

We make no representation that products or services available on or through youbloom or any Service are appropriate or available in all locations. Those who choose to access the Site or any Service from their location do so on their own initiative and at their own risk, and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

The EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC (DPD) defines a "data controller" broadly to refer to the 'natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any other body which alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of processing are determined by national or Community laws or regulations, the controller or the specific criteria for his nomination may be designated by national or Community law.'

Note: The Country in which you live and work may classify you as a Data Controller. If you are so classified, you may need to pay a fee and register as a Data Controller. youbloom suggests that you become familiar with this issue in your Country and take appropriate action based on your Country's laws and regulations. youbloom will not register any of its users as Data Controllers as this is your individual responsibility. There is usually only one official Data Registrar in each Country, so make sure you are registering with the official agency for your Country.

Assuming that the DPD applies to youbloom and Artists using youbloom, youbloom and Artists can be considered joint Data Controllers. youbloom controls data it receives and stores from Users. Likewise, Artists are Data Controllers in that they receive and have control over data received from Friends and/or Users through their use of youbloom's services. Artists retain ownership of their Data on youbloom, but youbloom and the Artist jointly control Data for youbloom services, email, advertising etc.

youbloom Email Guidelines and Policies

youbloom encourages the free flow of creative ideas between all users of youbloom as long as all users comply with the following follow the following requirements:

youbloom Spam Policy
youbloom has a zero tolerance policy regarding spam. youbloom will actively monitor large import lists and emails going to a large number of contacts. youbloom will immediately terminate access to Services for any user found to be using youbloom for Spam. All users are asked to notify us immediately at emailabuse@youbloom.com. Every email contains a mandatory unsubscribe link - those individuals who try to remove this link will be warned that they are doing so. If the link is removed or de-activated in any way, youbloom will terminate the customer's account.

What is Spam?
Spam is unsolicited email also known as UCE (Unsolicited Commercial Email). By sending email only to those who have requested to receive it, you are following accepted permission-based email guidelines.

What constitutes a Preexisting business relationship?
The recipient of your email has made a purchase, requested information, responded to a questionnaire or a survey, or had offline contact with you.

What constitutes consent?
The recipient of your email has been clearly and fully notified of the collection and use of his email address and has consented prior to such collection and use. This is often called informed consent.

Isn't there a law against sending spam in the United States?
The federal anti-spam law went into effect on January 1st, 2004, and preempts all state laws. While this new law will not stop spam, it does make most spam illegal and ultimately less attractive to spammers. The law is specific about requirements to send commercial email and empowers the federal government to enforce the law. The penalties can include a fine and/or imprisonment for up to 5 years.

How to protect yourself from spam: Take the Spam Test

• 1.Are you importing a purchased list of ANY kind?
• 2.Are you sending to non-specific addresses such as: Sales@domain.com, business@domain.com, webmaster@domain.com, info@domain.com, or other general addresses?
• 3.Are you sending to distribution lists or mailing lists, which send indirectly to a variety of email addresses?
• 4.Are you mailing to anyone who has not explicitly agreed to join your mailing list?

• 9.Are you failing to process any unsubscribe requests that come to you via a reply to your email within 10 days or the request? youbloom will automatically process unsubscribe requests that come to Users.
