Verified users

The verification badge (popcorn/star) in the App is used to confirm the authenticity of public interest accounts. The badge appears next to the name in the account profile, and next to the account name in the search results. It is always the same color and appears in the same place, regardless of profile customizations.

A user can be verified if it is determined to be of public interest, such as an artist, and their badge will be recognized with a star next to their username and if you are another type of public interest user, not an artist, it will be verified with a popcorn or check next to the username. These are usually user accounts that fall within the eld of music, acting, fashion, government, politics, religion, journalism, media, sports, business and other key areas of interest.

For Verified Users, they will only be able to receive "battles'' created by other Verified Users. Verified Users may participate by voting, commenting and sharing battles generated by any user within the App, but will not be able to receive battles from Users who are not verified by us.

User inactivity

To keep music indefinitely within your Music Battles profile, you'll need to stay as an active user on the app.

In case that in an uninterrupted period of thirty days you remain inactive as a user, the plays and replays of the unlocked songs will be lost (will go back to zero), so you will have to participate again in battles that include the songs to gain plays and be able to replay it.

The "active user" is the one who opens the App and logs in. A user who accesses the App without logging in to their account, will be considered as "inactive user" . Meaning that his music will lose the plays.

Music Battles users, to preserve the plays for their unlocked songs, must at least log in to their account.

Accessibility through Social Media

The access to Music Battles through the option "Social Media" , allows you to create an account and access it by clicking on a button and using the same credentials that you use for the selected social network to access Music Battles services.

The access through the social networks is possible through the social network's own services in which you already have registered data that is not owned or controlled by Music Battles. Music Battles does not control or assume responsibility for the privacy policies or the practices of thirdparty websites. If you use a registry option through social media, you do so at your own risk and acknowledge that Music Battles privacy policies do not apply to the use of those websites or social networks.

We recommend you read the terms and conditions, as well as the privacy policies of any web site, social network or third-party service that is used within the App.

Music Plays

Through the feature of Music Plays users will have a number of replays associated with each song. The users will be able to keep listening unlimitedly to the songs, as long as they have the necessary replays.

The obtainment of replays can only be done through online unblocking, nevertheless, the use of replays can be carried out with or without a connection to the internet.

The replays are not backward compatible with older versions; therefore, the users can only accumulate replays once the App is installed with that feature.

After a replay, the replay counter of each song is updated showing the number of replays available to the user for each song.

One replay is counted when:

  • The user selects a song to start listening to it.
  • The user presses <> to play the song from the beginning.
  • The shuffle mode starts the song.
  • The repetition mode starts the song (on every start of repetition a play is discounted).
  • The user rewinds any song to the range between 0:00 and 0:10 seconds.
  • The user presses <> to go on to the next song (a play is discounted from the next song).
  • The song ends and the next song comes on (a play is discounted from the following song).

No play is discounted when:

  • The user pauses and replays the song
  • The user rewinds the song from the second 0:10 and on.

Battle Coins

The collection and accumulation of Battle Coins is not backward compatible with older versions; therefore, users may only accumulate battle coins once the App is installed with that feature.

6. Marketplace

User's Battle Coins can be redeemed through the Marketplace and the stores created within the Rewards section for products and/or applicable services through the App and/or authorized external providers. You can only exchange your Battle Coins if you gain enough to exchange them for the lowest value product within the App and if your account meets the established requirements. Music Battles reserves the right to change, at its discretion and without prior notice, the offers of products and/or services published in the App. The value of the selected reward cannot be superior to the number of Battle Coins accumulated in your account. However, you can select a reward of a lower value. All Battle Coins not used will remain in your account for future use and, once the Battle Coins are exchanged, they will be discounted from your account.

The Battle Coins are not negotiable and can only be exchanged for the rewards indicated previously, or the ones established in the App. The rewards showed in the App do not necessarily reflect the exact colors or models of the real rewards, given the fact that there are variations when printed and updates from manufacturers. Music Battles reserves the right to substitute any reward for another one of the same or higher value, in the case that the selected reward in unavailable. Music Battles reserves the right to designate a third party to administer the rewards program and/or the Marketplace, as well as the prizes. You must read our Privacy Policy In any of these programs or spaces we can collect information about the exchange. This can include authentication information and contact information like your shipping address, telephone and email. Music Battles will not be liable for the losses that you might have suffered personally and that are a result of any error or omission committed by third parties in the administration and delivery of rewards. To carry on the delivery of the rewards, you must complete a delivery form that will contain, for example, complete name, telephone, email, address, amongst others. The delivery times of the acquired products through the App depend on the suppliers you selected at the moment of selecting the delivery. A confirmation email will indicate your delivery data, which will include the tracking number and the shipping company's customer service number responsible for the delivery, in a way that, if there is any problem with the delivery, you can contact the company to solve it.

The rewards received as a result of the exchange for the Battle Coins cannot be changed, returned, nor exchanged for cash. The products acquired through the App can only be returned and refunded (in the virtual currency in which they were purchased) only in cases where there are manufacturing defects as long as you communicate to Music Battles your intention to return an item purchased within a term of 10 (ten) natural days at most, calculated from the date of delivery of the package, in writing. You must indicate the username within the App, the shipping company that delivered, as well as the tracking number. Once the term of 10 (ten) natural days has expired, returns for items redeemed in Music Battles will not be accepted.

Music Battles Sweepstake

Through the Marketplace, users will be able to participate in activities called "Music Battles Sweepstake" , or any other name Music Battle considers suitable.

General Terms for Music Battles Sweepstake

The participation in this activity is voluntary and free, it is not necessary that the users buy any product and in it, chance may be featured.

To participate in the Music Battles Sweepstake (sweepstake), you must have an account in the App and fulfill the requirements of every Sweepstake, as well as the ones established in these Terms. If Music Battles has knowledge that the information you declared at the moment of creating your account and/or the information declared in the email notifying you won the Sweepstake is untrue, your participations will be immediately disqualified and Music Battles may delete your account in the App. This will be done without detriment of any other legal consequence that may result applicable. The winners of every Sweepstake may acquire material and/or digital, as well as the possibility, at Music Battles discretion, to appear in a banner announcing the winners. The decisions about the winners will be sovereign and unappealable. All users may participate in the Sweepstake, unblocking participating songs from the catalog and gaining the corresponding Battle Coins from each unblock to, thus, acquire digital tickets for the Sweepstake through the Marketplace of the App. The users may use the collected Battle Coins in exchange for digital tickets. Each digital ticket will have a unique identifier, which will be associated to the user during the time the Sweepstake lasts. The digital tickets will only be valid during the time the Sweepstake lasts, thus they cannot be used for another one. All digital tickets that are not creditors to a prize during the Sweepstake will lose their validity at the end of it. The limit of digital tickets each user may acquire in each Sweepstake will be established and communicated in the terms and conditions or information of each Sweepstake.

The unique identifiers of each digital ticket will be raffled to determine the prizes for each of the tickets. All of the tickets will have the same probability of being selected as winners. In the case of there being more than one prize, the first ones raffled will be of higher value according to the dynamic. The winning tickets will be removed from the following raffles for the remaining prizes. The prize or prizes will be announced during the Sweepstake and the winning tickets, as well as the users associated to that ticket will be announced and notified when the Sweepstake has taken place. In the case that any taxes or fees related to the prize have to be covered, these will be each winner's responsibility. If the winner does not answer in the term of 1 (one) month after being noticed by Music Battles, he may lose his prize/benet, to the discretion of Music Battles.

The prizes/benets are not transferable. The winners may be required to sign and send Music Battles any additional document that is required, with the objective of delivering the prize. If a potential winner does not return the documents before the due date stipulated by Music Battle, the prize will be lost and an alternative winner will be declared, to Music Battles discretion. No responsibility will be assumed for the damages and losses that result of the acceptance or use of any prize or part of it. Music Battle reserves the right to disqualify ad shut down the account of any user that alters or tries to alter the entry process or the operation of the Sweepstake, the App or the website, or that violates these Terms or the rules for the Sweepstake. Any attempt from anyone to deliberately jeopardize the legitimate functioning of the dynamic, can constitute a violation to the criminal and/or civil legislation; in the case it is attempted, Music Battles reserves the right to claim damages from any participant to the fullest extent possible by the law. Failure from Music Battles to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver to that provision or right. Music Battles reserves the right, to its sole discretion, to cancel, terminate, modify or suspend the dynamic if it is not possible to run as planned, including, amongst others, for computer virus, manipulation, nonauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures or any other issue out of Music Battles control.

Music Battles and each of its respective aliates, officers, directors, agents and employees shall have no responsibility for any claim arising in connection with participation in the dynamics or rights granted. You assume full responsibility for any injury or damage caused, or claim, for the participation in the dynamics, use or redemption of any right.

The dynamics will be carried out and cover the territory of Mexico.

Collaborators, employees, shareholders and managers, as well as their relatives until the second degree of kinship and/or affinity, undertake not to participate in the Sweepstake and, if they do so and prove winners, expressly waive the corresponding prize.

Music Battles reserves the right to award the prize to the Winner in the event that, in its consideration, any rules described herein have been violated and/or attempted to mislead or submit false information to Music Battles. The awarding of the prize to the winners, will be carried out according to the terms established on point 9 of the present Terms.

Leaderboards.

The data that is taken into account to construct each item table by category is counted by weeks, months, and history. These time periods are also taken into account to define prizewinners.

Leaderboards without prize

For weeks, the activity to be measured from Monday at 0:00:00 hrs. are counted until its close on Sunday at 23:59:59 hrs.

Leaderboards with award:

In the event of an award-winning dynamic, both the temporality and the time zone under which the dynamics are created will be indicated in the image of the same with the details, rules, and conditions of the prize.

Dynamics for Awards for Artists.

The objective of this dynamic is to award users for the unblocking or creation of battles within the App.

The dynamic consists of three requirements and/or levels of participation:

  • Complete the user profile in the App.
  • Unblock the complete record collection of the Artist that collaborates with Music Battles in the dynamic.

The user may unblock songs in a day or during the week. The number of unblocks that happen during the effective term of the dynamic will be taken into consideration. To be unblocked, we refer to the fact that the user finds and adds the song to their library during the effective term of the dynamic. "If the user would have previously unblocked the song in his library before the start of the dynamic, he shall have to unblock the song again in order for his participation in the dynamic to be valid. "

  • Once the record collection is unblocked, the user must create battles with the artist's music and search for means of expansion to achieve the highest number of votes for it or them.

The winning user will be chosen based on:

  • Having a complete profile
  • Having unblocked the artist's complete record collection
  • Having created a battle related to the artist and having received the highest number of votes in it.

Award-winning positions.

At the top of each of the leaderboards, there is an image containing the prizes and the specific dynamics to win. By clicking on it, you will be able to consult the instructions and rules of each dynamic.

For example, the first place in the category "Leaders in unlocks from l to week from November 2 to November 8, will win the prize mentioned in the image and rules of that dynamic.

In some cases, depending on the specific dynamic, the "leaderboard" will only be a guide or an example, based on the requirements and/or parameters of the dynamic.

The leaderboard can be updated with up to fifteen minutes of delay, without this meaning a breach from the App.

The winning users may be announced through the App, in the section "Announcement Cards" and/or on Music Battle's social media.

Tiebreaker criterion.

In the event of a tie between two or more users, in any of the prize categories, the highest position in the ranking will be awarded to the user who has reached the position in the ranking in the shortest time.

If you are the user who first arrived at the place or position, you will stay there until another user exceeds the amount achieved.
