Terms Of Use

We are Singa Oy (the "Company" or "Singa"), a company registered in Finland. We operate an online karaoke service (the "Service") that we make available through our mobile application ("App") and website ("Site"). The Service allows you and other users ("Users") to sing karaoke, take part in competitions, and interact with a community of likeminded people. In providing the Service, we make use of and make available to you different kinds of content, including designs, text, graphics, pictures, video, information, applications, software, music, sound and other files, and their selection and arrangement (the "Service Content").

These are the terms and conditions ("Terms") on which we supply our Service to you.

Please read these Terms carefully before you use or sign-up for the Service. These Terms tell you who we are, how we will provide the Service to you, how you and we may change or end the Terms, what to do if there is a problem, and other important information.

By accepting these Terms when accessing the App, or otherwise using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not accept any part of these Terms, then you should not click to accept them or use the App or the Site.

Payment Details

The Service is primarily made available to Users on a subscription basis. We enable you to access and use limited features of the Service without a subscription. You can sign up for a renewable monthly, biannual or annual paid subscription, or a one-off two-day or one week access pass.

The price of the pass or subscription will be set out in the App or the Site where you sign-up. We will confirm your order for a pass or subscription by e-mail. You must pay in advance to receive the benefits of the pass or subscription. For example, if you opt for a biannual subscription, payment for the duration of the subscription is required upfront. If we are unable to process payment for your pass or subscription, we will inform you of this in writing and will not charge you. Subject to the termination provisions set out in these Terms, monthly subscriptions automatically renew each month, and biannual and annual subscriptions automatically convert to fully paying, recurring, monthly subscriptions. Passes do not automatically convert into any subscription.

You will be able to receive the added benefits of a paid subscription until your paid subscription expires, or you terminate your subscription in accordance with these Terms. After your paid subscription has ended, you will still be able to use the Service, but will not have access to certain features available only to paid subscribers. You will still be able to receive the basic benefits of the Service until you or we end our contract in accordance with these Terms.

If you change your mind about a paid subscription, you have fourteen days after the day we e-mail you to confirm your paid subscription to cancel it ("Cancellation Period"). You cannot change your mind if we have completed the Services, even if the Cancellation Period is still running. For example, for a two-day access pass, once the two days have passed (and within the fourteen days), you cannot change your mind.
