You have or are about to subscribe. Thank you for your trust! We are delighted to share with you the pleasure of listening to beautiful musical works.

The following items, as well as any updates, additional terms and all of the Vialma rules and policies referred to, constitute a contract between you and Vialma, setting out the terms and conditions governing your use of the Vialma.com website. Hereinafter the “Agreement” between you and Vialma. By joining Vialma, you accept these conditions.

Article 1 – About Vialma and Its Services

The Vialma website, the address of which is http://www.Vialma.com, and the mobile application available on Apple and Android stores (hereafter called “Vialma”) is a publication of Musikazoo, S.A.S.

Vialma is a web service that gives subscribers (hereafter “Subscriber” or “Subscribers”) access to a growing catalog of musical works, as well as to a database of information on these works, their composers, and the musicians who interpret them, all based on the subscription plan chosen. Vialma Subscribers can download a portion of these works in MP3 and CD-quality format, provided they respect the conditions detailed in this contract. The Site offers three subscription plans:

A ”Vialma Classic” plan, under which Subscribers have access to our entire database and 250 000 tracks of classical music, which can be listened to unlimitedly.
A ”Vialma Jazz” plan, under which Subscribers have access to our entire database and 250 000 tracks of jazz music, which can be listened to unlimitedly.
Finally, an “All Vialma” plan, under which Subscribers have access to our entire database and our complete music catalog of more than 1 million audio tracks and HD videos, which can be listened to and watched unlimitedly. They will also be offered gifts and privileges throughout the year

Moreover, the information on Vialma is also accessible to internet users who have signed up for an account. These users cannot, however, access the music catalog if they haven’t paid for one of the three subscription plans.

Article 2 – Conditions of Use and Terms of Service

Vialma is accessible to Subscribers and Users 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Access is possible via personal computer as well as mobile platforms such as tablets and smartphones. The services provided in the subscription plans are only available from a single connection at a time. Vialma uses various technological means to verify absence of connection and detect multiple simultaneous connections.

Site access and mobile app access requires a high-speed internet connection, as well as computer equipment such as a personal computer or a smartphone. Neither the connection nor the computer equipment or any means of accessing the Site are not paid for/covered by Vialma. It is the responsibility of the Subscriber to obtain, at his or her own cost, the necessary means of accessing the Site.

Vialma reserves the right to make any technical modifications or improvements it desires. Consequently/as a result, it reserves the right to temporarily suspend access to the Site without warning or indemnity, in order to perform maintenance operations related to technological improvement or necessary to the continuity of service. Subscribers absolve Vialma of all responsibility/liability related to this process.

Article 3 – Subscriptions

3.a Price and payment

The price of each subscription plan is listed on the Site in euros or pounds, all taxes included.

Vialma reserves the right to modify the price of any of its services/commercial offerings. In such a case, it will inform each Subscriber concerned by email via the address provided by the Subscriber, at least 15 (fifteen) days before the change takes effect. Upon receiving this email, Subscribers can cancel their subscriptions by accessing their account on the Site; the cancellation will take effect at the end of the current monthly subscription period. If a Subscriber does not cancel, the new fees will apply starting with the next monthly subscription period following the date when the fee changes take effect.

Any increase in VAT (Value-Added Tax) will automatically and immediately be reflected in our subscription prices. The same goes for any new tax created that would apply to the price of the commercial offering and that Vialma would have to pay. The cancellation conditions specified above in case of modification of subscription prices also apply in the same way in the case of price modification due to an increase in taxes or the creation of new taxes.

Payment for the Service is required in advance of each subscription period (i.e., at the beginning of each month or year). For greater security, Vialma has partnered with Ogone, a subsidiary of the Ingenico Group, a European leader in online payment. As a result, Vialma does not keep any Subscriber’s bank information on record.

3.b Duration and automatic renewal

Subscriptions begin once Subscribers receive a confirmation email from Vialma at the email address they provided on signing up.

Subscribers can choose monthly or annual subscriptions. Subscriptions are renewed automatically for the same length of time as the initial subscription, and at the current rate for that subscription.

All free trials where a payment card or method has been requested prior to trying, become monthly or yearly subscriptions at the rate indicated in the offer, or, failing that, at the applicable rate for monthly or yearly subscriptions.

3.c Absence of the right of withdrawal

In accordance with the provisions of Article L. 121-20-2 1° of the Consumer Code, the Subscriber recognizes and accepts specifically (i) that the service to be provided begins as soon as his subscription has been confirmed/validated before the end of the seven days (exclusive) required by the Consumer Code, and (ii) that as a consequence, he does not benefit from the right of withdrawal connected to online and long-distance sales. As a result, no request for withdrawal, cancellation, or reimbursal will be accepted for the subscription period.

3.d Cancellation

Subscribers can cancel their subscriptions at any time via the “My Account” section of the Site or by writing an email to guillaume@Vialma.com. Cancellation is effective at the end of the current subscription period, provided that the cancellation request was sent at least 72 (seventy-two) hours before the period’s end.

Subscribers who have opted for monthly payment and wish to cancel their subscription must obey the following rules:

Payment is owed for any month already begun.
Regarding downloads only: on cancelling an account, the number of downloads effected from the Site during the Subscription will be deducted pro rata (relative to the annual plan) from the total number of downloads allowed under the subscription plan chosen. For example, an annual Subscriber who cancels at the end of the first month of his or her subscription, but who has already downloaded half of the files allotted under the subscription plan, therefore owes Musikazoo, S.A.S. half of the price of the subscription.
