(d) Ownership. All Sound Libraries are licensed, not sold. GGM Media and/or its licensors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Sound Libraries.

 

9B. CONTRACTORS, COLLABORATORS, AND WORK-FOR-HIRE EXCEPTION

You may share Compositions that incorporate the Sound Libraries with third-party collaborators, contractors, or service providers (such as mix engineers, mastering engineers, musicians, editors, or post-production professionals) solely for the purpose of creating, editing, or finalizing such Compositions on your behalf, provided that:

(a) such third parties are not granted any ownership interest in the Sound Libraries; (b) such third parties may not extract, reuse, redistribute, or exploit the Sound Libraries outside of the applicable Composition; (c) access to the Sound Libraries is limited to the duration and scope reasonably necessary to perform the contracted services; and (d) you remain fully responsible for any acts or omissions of such third parties that would constitute a breach of this EULA.

This exception does not permit use of the Sound Libraries in any standalone, competitive, or redistributable manner.

 

9C. CONTENT IDENTIFICATION, WATERMARKING, AND ENFORCEMENT

The Sound Libraries and/or Media may contain inaudible digital watermarks, fingerprints, identifiers, or other content identification technologies designed to identify ownership, detect unauthorized use, or enforce compliance with this EULA.

You acknowledge and agree that GGM Media may use such technologies to: (a) identify unauthorized redistribution or misuse of the Sound Libraries; (b) verify license compliance; and (c) enforce its intellectual property rights.

Such technologies shall not materially degrade audio quality or interfere with authorized use of the Media. Use of the Media constitutes consent to the inclusion and operation of such identification technologies.
