Please also read our Privacy Policy which is incorporated into these Terms of Use and governs your use of the Site. If you wish to purchase Products or otherwise use the Service in any way, you must also agree to our End User License Agreement below.

1. Right to Make Changes

These Terms and/or any other agreement may be changed without prior notice, and any such amendment will be applicable to all Users from the date and time such revised Terms have been posted on the Site (or otherwise made available to you).

2. Links Away from Our Site

Our Site contains links to other websites and services provided by third parties. Emergence Audio LLC has no control over the contents of those websites or services and accepts no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them. If you decide to access any of the third-party websites linked to our Site, you do so entirely at your own risk and subject to the Terms of Use and conditions of use for such websites.

3. Links to Our Site

Any other website may link to the Site, provided it does not imply any endorsement of its products or services by Emergence Audio LLC, does not misrepresent its relationship with or present false information about Emergence Audio LLC, does not infringe any intellectual property or other right of any person and complies with all relevant laws and regulations.

5. Refund Policy

Due to the nature of downloadable products and online services, Emergence Audio LLC cannot issue a refund for instruments that have already been downloaded or have serial numbers. All sales are final. We’re always available for any questions you may have prior to purchase regarding system requirements, etc. Please don’t hesitate to reach out via our ‘Help’ button at Support to create a ticket.

EU and UK Customers: If you are a consumer in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you have a statutory right to cancel a purchase of digital content within 14 days of your order without giving a reason, and nothing in this policy limits that right. To request cancellation, contact us via our Support page within 14 days of purchase and we will issue a full refund. This right ends early only where you have expressly requested immediate delivery of the digital content and acknowledged that you lose your right of withdrawal as a result.
