    \n
  1. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in all relevant jurisdictions, the following acts are strictly prohibited (except in each case as specifically and explicitly authorized by SME) in connection with any and all existing and future content, including but not limited to text, images, artwork, video, data, music and audio (the \u201cContent<\/strong>\u201d), hosted on and\/or accessible via this website or other websites, online and offline services, landing pages, apps, online stores or platforms of SME, or otherwise owned or controlled by SME and notified to you, identified through publicly available means or listed from time to time in databases such as those maintained by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI):<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    • accessing, copying, reproducing, extracting and\/or collecting any Content (or portion thereof), whether manually or by scraping, crawling or using any \u201crobot\u201d, \u201cbot\u201d, \u201cspider\u201d, \u201cscraper\u201d or any other automated process, to (or to enable any third party to) create, develop, modify, train or commercialize any system, tool or other software utilizing artificial intelligence technologies, including but not limited to machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing, generative adversarial network techniques and\/or diffusion modelling (collectively, \u201cAI Uses<\/strong>\u201d); and<\/li>\n
    • removing, disabling, circumventing, damaging or otherwise interfering with any features of this website or otherwise which are intended to limit, restrict or prevent any particular form of access to, use, copying, reproduction, extraction and\/or collection of any Content (or portion thereof) in connection with any AI Uses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n
      1. For the avoidance of doubt, all Content is expressly opted out from any and all rights of parties to conduct text and data mining under any and all applicable international and local laws, including but not limited to the European Union\u2019s DSM Directive (2019\/790\/EU), together with local implementations and related legislation, to the fullest extent permitted (or not otherwise restricted) under such laws. SME reserves all its rights in and to the Content in connection with all related matters. This reservation supplements and is without prejudice to our rights under Article 7(2) of European Union\u2019s DSM Directive (2019\/790\/EU) and its implementing or related legislation in all EEA member states.<\/li>\n
      2. Notwithstanding the above, nothing in these AI Usage Terms is intended to prohibit or restrict any automated processing (including indexing and crawling) of our Content by search engines for the sole purpose of search results display and search ranking.<\/li>\n
      3. In the event of any conflict between these AI Usage Terms and any other terms and conditions governing your access to and use of SME\u2019s websites and mobile applications, these AI Usage Terms shall prevail.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":28059,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-30650","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nSony Music UK -
