1. General Terms.
The following terms of service apply to the 459points application, registered service number 2412030278560-5TM6WP© Safe Creative International Registration with all rights reserved. You can contact us at hello@459points.com.
2. Contents.
The application is based on the voting and ranking of the participants of the main music festivals in Europe linked to the Eurovision Song Contest.
2.1 Eurovision Song Contest content: The application will allow you to discover, vote and order the artists participating in the various Eurovision festivals. These votes are fictitious and are not linked in any way to the Eurovision Song Contest, organized by the EBU. The creation of the application has been reported to the EBU, but it does not maintain any link with the organization. The votes are created by and for the Eurofan community, with the aim of raising awareness of both the artists and the festival itself, on the understanding that the content displayed does not reflect any commercial activity. All the media shown has an illustrative, informative and promotional interest understanding its use as fair use, and belongs to the artists themselves, who can communicate with the application for any modification they consider.
2.2 The other festivals: In addition to the Eurovision Song Contest, the app contains other music festivals related to the contest itself, such as Benidorm Fest, Melodifestivalen or San Remo, among many others. These festivals are organized by the public broadcasters of each country, to whom the rights belong. As in the previous point, the votes shown in the app are not linked to the official results of the broadcasts of these festivals, and the information and voting shown about them has a promotional purpose, wanting to boost and grow the fan communities of these festivals and the artists participating in them.
2.2.1 Fictional festivals: The app will also offer, in a smaller way, fictitious festivals with various artists linked to previous festivals. These will come out of user requests or the results of previous festivals, giving rise, for example, to a festival of ''the winners'', among others.
2.3 The rating of the artists: The application allows the user to vote, sort and make their own personalized top in each festival. In them, information is provided about the participating artist, their photograph, their song and a short preview of the track.
2.3.1 Music preview: The plays of the songs are directly linked to the official videos on the official channels of the artists and festivals. The app does not count, reproduce, count or allow downloading any playback in the app. These are posted on their YouTube channels, thus benefiting their promotion.
2.4 Sharing content: The application will allow users to share their tops on social networks. In this way, the user will be able to share his created content directly from the application to the main existing social networks.
2.5 Community results: The application, through its base system, will compute the votes cast by each user in their global tops to make a global top, with the votes of all users in each festival. This is constantly updated.
2.6 Press and media coverage: For several years, the 459points team has covered, as accredited press, many of the festivals shown on the app, such as Eurovision Song Contest or Benidorm Fest. The app team will continue with its press work and coverage of the festivals, understanding its work with the aim of promoting and bringing these festivals to the largest number of people from a journalistic perspective. The app, through its social networks, will also provide information, coverage and promotion of the festivals and the participating artists, with interviews, reports and exclusive audiovisual material.

4. Purchases In-App
Most of the festivals in the application are totally free. However, there may be some festivals with premium access. This will be due to the impact of the festival, its number of participants, taking into account if it is a large number, or if it is a fictitious festival created in the app. In any case, most of the content is free, created by and for the community.
4.1 Premium filters: The app will offer filters and premium benefits for users who want them. These are divided into three filters: filter by country, filter by favorite and highest rating in the votes. The premium subscription is annual and has a very low cost, mostly to cover and maintain the costs of managing the app. These filters have been created and devised in the application.
4.2 Payment: In-app payments are handled by the Stripe platform, one of the most secure and widely used payment platforms. All payments are made through Stripe and managed by Apple Store or Google Play Store. No payment will ever be requested on other websites outside of the app or by e-mail or similar means.
