This license shall not include the right to use the SoundSet(s) independently of the Project. The rights granted herein shall not confer in Licensee any rights of ownership in the SoundSet(s), including, without limitation, the copyright thereto, sale, lending or redistribution of the SoundSet(s). All SoundSets and audio material found on this site are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws, and all intellectual property rights in the SoundSet(s) belong to the Licensor.
