2. Registration
2.1 Only Registered Artists are allowed to post events

open to all singer-songwriters who meet the registration
criteria for the site (and to presenters who are promoting
performances by such artists). (See Provision 1, above,
and Calendar Registration.)
2.2 Songspace is under no obligation to accept the registration
of any person, nor to list their information on the calendar.
Posting to the Songspace calendar is a privilege, which
Songspace can grant, deny, or revoke at any time, at its
sole discretion. (See Provision 3.4, below.)
2.3 By becoming a Registered Artist, you grant Songspace
permission to publish your name and the promotional information
you provide in calendar listings (and in the Artist Directory,
if you have requested to be listed). Your personal information
shall remain confidential. (See Privacy Policy.)
2.4 Registered Artists are prohibited from registering
multiple usernames, and from allowing others to use their
username and password to post events on the Songspace calendar.
You are responsible for all actions taken by anyone logged
into the Songspace system using your username and password.
