2. Scope of These Terms

These Terms of Service govern access to and use of the SONARIX website, its content, contact forms and any other functionality made available through the website.

By accessing or using the website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agreed to these Terms and the SONARIX Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not use the website.

When accessing the website on behalf of a company or another legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

3. Relationship With Service Agreements

The information presented on the website is provided for general informational and promotional purposes and does not constitute a binding commercial offer.

Submitting a contact form, requesting information, scheduling a meeting or discussing a potential project does not automatically create a contractual relationship between SONARIX and the prospective Client.

Paid creative services are governed by:

• the quotation accepted by the Client;

• the applicable General Terms and Conditions of Sale;

• any licence agreement, statement of work or additional written agreement relating to the project.

Where a conflict exists between these Terms and an accepted quotation or specific written agreement, the quotation or specific agreement shall prevail with respect to the relevant service.

4. Description of Services

SONARIX may present information concerning its creative services, previous projects, working methods, packages, estimated prices and availability through the website.

Descriptions, examples, prices, timelines and other information displayed on the website are indicative and may be changed, updated or withdrawn at any time.

Each project is subject to an individual assessment and, where applicable, a written quotation defining its scope, deliverables, price, timeline, revision allowance and usage rights.

SONARIX does not guarantee that every service presented on the website will remain available at all times.

5. Website Use

You agree to use the website only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not interfere with its proper operation, security or accessibility.

You must not:

• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, its servers or connected systems;

• introduce malware, viruses, harmful code or disruptive technologies;

• interfere with the website’s security or functionality;

• impersonate another person or organisation;

• use the website for fraudulent, unlawful, defamatory or abusive purposes;

• collect or extract website content or personal data through automated means without prior written permission;

• copy, reproduce or commercially exploit website content without authorisation;

• use SONARIX’s name, branding, work or reputation in a misleading manner.

SONARIX may restrict or block access to the website where misuse, unlawful activity or a security risk is reasonably suspected.

6. Information and Materials Submitted by Users

When submitting information, files, recordings, music, videos, logos, scripts, references or other materials to SONARIX, you confirm that:

• the information provided is accurate to the best of your knowledge;

• you have the necessary rights and permissions to provide the materials;

• the materials do not infringe any copyright, trademark, privacy right or other third-party right;

• the materials do not contain unlawful, harmful or malicious content.

You remain responsible for all materials that you submit.

Submission of materials through the website does not transfer ownership of those materials to SONARIX. However, you authorise SONARIX to access and review them to respond to your request, evaluate the proposed project and provide the requested services.

Any broader use of Client materials will be governed by the applicable quotation, contract or written agreement.

7. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise indicated, the website and all content made available through it are owned by or licensed to SONARIX.

This includes, without limitation:

• graphics, layouts and designs;

• photographs and videos;

• audio examples, music and sound effects;

Access to the website does not grant you any ownership rights or licence to use this content beyond normal personal or internal business consultation.

You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, publish, sell, licence, publicly perform, make available or commercially exploit any website content without prior written permission from SONARIX or the relevant rights holder.

Rights relating to creations produced for a Client are governed separately by the accepted quotation, the General Terms and Conditions of Sale and any applicable licence or intellectual property agreement.

8. Portfolio and Third-Party Content

The website may feature projects, brands, recordings, images, trademarks or other materials belonging to Clients, collaborators or third parties.

Such materials remain the property of their respective rights holders and are displayed solely to present SONARIX’s professional work, where authorised.

No rights to third-party brands or materials are granted through their appearance on the website.

9. Third-Party Websites and Services

The website may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites and services, including social networks, video platforms, audio platforms, scheduling services, payment providers or analytics tools.

These third-party services operate under their own terms and privacy policies.

SONARIX does not control and is not responsible for the content, availability, security, practices or policies of third-party services.

Accessing a third-party website or service is done at your own discretion.

10. Website Availability and Accuracy

SONARIX takes reasonable measures to maintain the website and provide accurate information. However, the website is provided on an “as available” basis.

SONARIX does not guarantee that:

• the website will always be available or uninterrupted;

• all information will be complete, current or error-free;

• the website will be free from technical problems or security vulnerabilities;

• all links and third-party integrations will remain functional;

SONARIX may update, suspend, restrict or discontinue any part of the website without prior notice where reasonably necessary.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, SONARIX shall not be liable for indirect, incidental or consequential losses arising solely from access to or use of the website.

This includes loss of revenue, loss of opportunity, loss of data, reputational harm or business interruption.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by mandatory law, including liability arising from intentional misconduct or gross negligence.

Liability relating to paid creative services is governed by the applicable quotation, General Terms and Conditions of Sale and any specific written agreement concluded with the Client.

Further information concerning the categories of data collected, purposes of processing, service providers, retention periods, international transfers and user rights is provided in the Privacy Policy.

13. Suspension and Termination

SONARIX may suspend, restrict or terminate access to the website where a user:

• violates these Terms;

• engages in unlawful or abusive conduct;

• creates a security or operational risk;

• attempts to infringe SONARIX’s or a third party’s rights.

Termination of access does not affect rights or obligations that arose before termination.

Provisions concerning intellectual property, liability, governing law and any other provisions intended to survive shall remain effective.

14. Changes to These Terms

SONARIX may update these Terms to reflect changes to its website, services, business practices or legal obligations.

The version published on the website at the time of access is the applicable version.

Changes to these Terms do not retroactively modify an existing service agreement unless expressly accepted by both parties.

15. Severability and No Waiver

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue to apply.

The failure of SONARIX to enforce any provision shall not constitute a waiver of its right to enforce that provision at a later date.

16. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by Swiss law, excluding its conflict-of-law rules.

Subject to any mandatory legal provisions protecting consumers or establishing another compulsory place of jurisdiction, any dispute arising from these Terms or the use of the website shall be submitted to the competent courts of Sion, Canton of Valais, Switzerland.
