Terms & Conditions

Last updated: [MONTH DAY, YEAR]

These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of [WEBSITE NAME], available at [WEBSITE URL], and any purchase, download, subscription, licence or service made available through the website.

The website is operated by:

[LEGAL BUSINESS NAME]
[BUSINESS TYPE]
[REGISTERED ADDRESS]
[REGISTRATION NUMBER, IF APPLICABLE]
[VAT OR TAX NUMBER, IF APPLICABLE]
Email: [CONTACT EMAIL]

By accessing the website, creating an account, placing an order or downloading any content, you agree to these Terms and Conditions.

Certain products may also be governed by a separate licence agreement displayed before purchase or supplied with the purchased files. Where a specific licence agreement conflicts with these general Terms, the specific licence agreement will govern the permitted use of that product.

1. Definitions

For these Terms:

“Website” means [WEBSITE URL] and its related pages and services.

“We”, “us” or “our” means [LEGAL BUSINESS NAME].

“Customer”, “you” or “your” means any person or organisation accessing the Website or purchasing a Product.

“Beat” means an instrumental musical composition, recording or related audio file offered through the Website.

“Pack” means a downloadable collection of digital assets, which may include samples, loops, presets, stems, MIDI files, drum sounds or other production resources.

“Licence” means the limited permission granted to use a Beat, Pack or other Product under specified conditions.

“Product” means any Beat, Pack, subscription, digital download, licence or service offered through the Website.

“Track” means a new musical work created by the Customer using a licensed Beat or other permitted Product.

“Subscription” means a recurring paid plan providing access to specified Products, downloads, benefits or services.

2. Eligibility

You must be legally capable of entering into a binding contract to purchase Products from the Website.

Where you are under the legal age of majority in your country, you may only use the Website and purchase Products with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.

If you make a purchase on behalf of a company, artist, label or other organisation, you confirm that you are authorised to accept these Terms on its behalf.

3. Accounts

Some Website features may require an account.

You agree to:

  • provide accurate and current information;
  • keep your login credentials confidential;
  • promptly update any information that changes;
  • accept responsibility for activity performed through your account;
  • notify us immediately of suspected unauthorised access.

Accounts are personal unless a business account or team access feature is expressly provided.

You may not sell, transfer, share or commercially resupply access to your account.

We may temporarily restrict an account where we reasonably suspect fraud, unauthorised access, payment abuse or a breach of these Terms.

4. Products and availability

We make reasonable efforts to describe Products accurately. Audio previews, images, demonstrations and descriptions are provided to help you evaluate a Product before purchase.

Minor differences may exist between previews and delivered files due to audio compression, file formats, mastering, software versions or playback equipment.

Products may be modified, updated, withdrawn or replaced at any time. Removing a Product from future sale does not normally cancel a Licence that was validly purchased before its removal.

Availability is not guaranteed until payment has been successfully completed.

5. Orders

By submitting an order, you offer to purchase the selected Product under these Terms and the Licence displayed at checkout.

An order is accepted when:

  1. payment has been successfully authorised; and
  2. we provide an order confirmation or make the Product available for download.

We may refuse or cancel an order before delivery where:

  • the Product was listed with an obvious pricing or technical error;
  • payment was not authorised;
  • fraudulent or abusive activity is suspected;
  • the order violates a purchase limit;
  • we are legally prohibited from completing the transaction.

If we cancel a paid order before delivery, the amount paid for that order will be refunded.

6. Prices, taxes and payment

Prices are shown in [CURRENCY], unless another currency is displayed at checkout.

Applicable taxes may be calculated based on your billing location and the information supplied during checkout.

You agree to provide complete and accurate billing information.

Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers. We do not control their independent services, security procedures or availability.

We do not normally store complete payment-card details on our own servers.

A payment is not considered complete until it has been confirmed by the relevant payment provider.

7. Digital delivery

Beats, Packs and other digital Products are normally delivered through:

  • an account download area;
  • a download link;
  • an order confirmation page;
  • an email containing access instructions.

You are responsible for downloading and securely storing your purchased files while they remain available.

Download availability may be limited by time, number of attempts, account status or technical security measures.

Where a valid purchase can be verified, we may restore access at our discretion. Permanent hosting or unlimited future redownloads are not guaranteed unless expressly included in the Product description.

8. Digital-content withdrawal consent

Where applicable consumer law provides a cancellation or withdrawal period for online purchases, you may be asked to request immediate access to the digital content before that period expires.

Before immediate delivery, the checkout should require you to expressly confirm:

I request immediate access to the digital content and acknowledge that, once the download or access begins, I may lose my statutory right of withdrawal to the extent permitted by applicable law.

This provision does not remove any legal rights that cannot lawfully be waived.

If the required consent or acknowledgement was not properly obtained, your statutory rights may continue to apply.

9. Refunds

Because Beats, Packs and other downloadable Products are digital content that can be accessed immediately, purchases are generally non-refundable after the download or access has begun, except where:

  • the Product is defective;
  • the delivered files materially differ from the Product description;
  • the wrong Product was supplied;
  • duplicate payment occurred;
  • a refund is required by applicable law.

A change of mind, failure to review the preview, software incompatibility, lack of production experience or a decision not to use the Product does not automatically create a right to a refund.

Before purchasing, you should verify:

  • the selected Product;
  • the selected Licence;
  • the file formats supplied;
  • software requirements;
  • permitted commercial uses;
  • subscription or renewal terms.

Refund requests must be submitted to [SUPPORT EMAIL] with the order number and a clear explanation of the issue.

Nothing in this section limits mandatory consumer rights relating to defective digital content or digital services. EU consumer rules provide legal remedies for digital content and digital services that do not conform to the contract.

10. Beat licences

Purchasing a Beat does not normally transfer ownership of the underlying composition or master recording.

Unless an Exclusive Licence or written assignment expressly states otherwise, you receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable Licence to use the Beat under the terms selected at checkout.

The available Licence types may include:

  • Free Licence;
  • Basic or Standard Licence;
  • Premium Licence;
  • Unlimited Licence;
  • Exclusive Licence.

The exact rights, limits and restrictions are displayed on the Product page, at checkout or in the licence document supplied with the purchase.

Licence conditions may include:

  • permitted commercial or non-commercial use;
  • monetised or non-monetised video use;
  • streaming or sales limits;
  • live-performance rights;
  • music-video rights;
  • radio or television rights;
  • permitted number of projects;
  • credit requirements;
  • Content ID or fingerprinting permissions;
  • restrictions on sublicensing or redistribution.

You are responsible for selecting a Licence suitable for your intended use.

11. Free licences and free downloads

A free download does not place the Beat or Product in the public domain.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, a Free Licence:

  • permits personal or non-commercial use only;
  • does not permit monetised distribution;
  • does not permit commercial streaming or sales;
  • does not permit registration with Content ID, Meta Rights Manager, TikTok fingerprinting or similar systems;
  • does not transfer ownership;
  • may require visible credit.

A paid Licence must be obtained before commercial release or monetisation unless the applicable Free Licence expressly allows that use.

12. Non-exclusive licences

Under a non-exclusive Licence, the same Beat may be licensed to multiple customers.

You acknowledge that:

  • other artists may create and release Tracks using the same Beat;
  • purchasing a non-exclusive Licence does not reserve the Beat;
  • we may continue to sell non-exclusive Licences;
  • similarity resulting solely from lawful use of the same Beat is not, by itself, a breach of your Licence.

The rights granted remain subject to the limits stated in the selected Licence.

13. Exclusive licences

An Exclusive Licence grants only the rights expressly described in the relevant licence agreement.

Unless the agreement expressly states that copyright ownership is assigned:

  • ownership of the original Beat remains with its creator or rights holder;
  • the Customer receives exclusive usage rights under the specified conditions;
  • licences validly granted before the exclusive sale may remain in force;
  • previous customers may continue using the Beat under their existing licences.

The availability of an Exclusive Licence does not guarantee that no earlier non-exclusive licences exist.

Any transfer of copyright ownership must be expressly stated in writing.

14. Licence upgrades

Where licence upgrades are offered, you may request or purchase a higher Licence for the same Beat.

An upgrade is effective only after:

  • any additional payment has been completed; and
  • the upgraded Licence has been issued.

Usage exceeding the original Licence limits before an upgrade may still constitute a breach unless we confirm otherwise in writing.

Previous payments may or may not be credited toward an upgrade, depending on the offer displayed on the Website.

15. Credit

Where credit is required, it should be displayed substantially as:

“Produced by [PRODUCER NAME]”

or in another form specified in the applicable Licence.

Credit should be included in relevant metadata, video descriptions, platform credits or liner notes where reasonably possible.

Failure to provide required credit may constitute a breach of the Licence.

16. Prohibited uses of Beats

Unless expressly authorised in writing, you may not:

  • sell, resell, sublicense or redistribute a Beat as a standalone file;
  • upload or distribute the original Beat without meaningful creative contribution;
  • claim authorship or sole ownership of the original Beat;
  • register the original Beat itself as your own copyright;
  • provide the Beat to another artist for an unrelated project;
  • include the Beat in another beat store, sample pack or production library;
  • use the Beat to train an artificial-intelligence model or dataset;
  • create a competing instrumental, karaoke or stock-music product from it;
  • remove embedded ownership information;
  • use the Beat in unlawful, defamatory or infringing content.

You may provide files to collaborators, engineers, distributors or labels only as reasonably necessary to produce and distribute your authorised Track. They receive no independent right to reuse the Beat.

17. Content ID and fingerprinting

You may register a Track with YouTube Content ID, Meta Rights Manager, TikTok fingerprinting or another automated rights-management system only where the selected Licence expressly permits it.

Where fingerprinting is not permitted, you must not:

  • submit the Track to an automated identification service;
  • authorise a distributor or label to do so;
  • make ownership claims against other lawful users of the same Beat.

You are responsible for reviewing your distributor’s Content ID settings before release.

Unauthorised registration may result in:

  • removal of the claim;
  • suspension or termination of the Licence;
  • account restriction;
  • responsibility for reasonable costs caused by false claims.

Where Content ID is permitted, you must ensure that your registration covers your finished Track and does not falsely claim exclusive ownership of separately owned elements.

18. Samples and third-party material

Product descriptions should state whether a Beat or Pack contains known third-party samples requiring additional clearance.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, you are responsible for obtaining any clearance required for:

  • vocals added by you;
  • third-party samples added by you;
  • interpolations;
  • remixes;
  • cover recordings;
  • trademarks;
  • artwork;
  • other materials not supplied under the Product Licence.

A Licence for a Beat does not grant rights to third-party material that you independently add to your Track.

Where a Product includes royalty-free material, “royalty-free” means it may be used under the supplied Licence; it does not necessarily mean copyright-free or free of all restrictions.

19. Packs, loops, samples and presets

Purchasing a Pack grants a limited Licence to use its contents in new creative works, subject to the applicable Pack Licence.

Unless the Pack Licence states otherwise, you may generally use Pack elements as part of a larger musical production.

You may not:

  • resell or redistribute individual files;
  • share the original Pack with another person;
  • upload the Pack to a file-sharing service;
  • include substantially unchanged Pack files in another sample pack;
  • claim ownership of the source files;
  • register an isolated loop or sample in a fingerprinting system;
  • use the Pack to create a competing sound library;
  • use the files to train an artificial-intelligence model or dataset.

Because multiple customers may lawfully use the same loop or sample, you should not claim exclusive ownership of an unmodified Pack element.

20. Subscriptions

A Subscription provides access only to the benefits described at the time of purchase.

Subscription benefits may include:

  • a recurring download allowance;
  • access to selected Beats or Packs;
  • discounted licences;
  • member-only content;
  • account features;
  • other stated benefits.

Unless stated otherwise:

  • unused monthly allowances do not roll over;
  • access is personal and non-transferable;
  • Products downloaded during a Subscription remain governed by the Licence issued at the time of download;
  • ending a Subscription stops future benefits but does not cancel valid Licences already granted.

We may introduce new Subscription plans or stop offering a plan to new customers. Any change affecting an existing paid Subscription will be handled in accordance with applicable law and the notice terms below.

21. Automatic renewal

Where a Subscription renews automatically:

  • the renewal frequency and price will be displayed before purchase;
  • you authorise recurring charges using the selected payment method;
  • the Subscription renews until cancelled;
  • applicable taxes may be added;
  • renewal dates may shift slightly because of payment processing or calendar differences.

You may cancel through your account or by contacting [SUPPORT EMAIL].

Cancellation prevents future renewal charges but does not normally refund the current billing period. Access continues until the end of the paid period unless the plan states otherwise.

We may retry a failed payment and temporarily suspend benefits while payment remains overdue.

22. Subscription price changes

We may change the price of a recurring Subscription.

Where required, we will provide advance notice before the new price applies.

The notice will state:

  • the new price;
  • when it takes effect;
  • how to cancel.

A price change will not apply retroactively to a completed billing period.

Where applicable law requires renewed consent, the new price will not be charged without that consent.

23. Promotions and discount codes

Promotions and discount codes:

  • apply only during the stated period;
  • may be limited to selected Products or customers;
  • cannot be exchanged for cash;
  • may not be combined unless expressly allowed;
  • may be cancelled where obtained through fraud, abuse or technical error.

A discount does not change the Product Licence unless expressly stated.

Refunds, where due, are based on the amount actually paid.

24. Custom services

The Website may offer services such as:

  • custom beat production;
  • mixing;
  • mastering;
  • editing;
  • audio consultation;
  • other creative services.

The scope, price, delivery estimate and revision allowance will be shown in the service description or agreed separately.

Unless otherwise agreed:

  • work begins after payment and receipt of the required files and instructions;
  • delivery dates are estimates rather than guarantees;
  • delays caused by missing files, unclear instructions or late feedback may extend delivery;
  • additional revisions or work outside the original scope may require further payment;
  • source files are included only where expressly stated.

Approval of a final delivery may end the included revision period.

25. Customer-provided materials

You confirm that you have the necessary rights to provide any vocals, recordings, compositions, samples, artwork, names or other materials submitted to us.

You remain responsible for the legality and accuracy of your materials.

You grant us a limited permission to use submitted materials solely to:

  • perform the requested service;
  • process the order;
  • provide support;
  • maintain necessary business records.

We may refuse material that appears unlawful, infringing, abusive or technically unsafe.

26. Intellectual property

The Website, its visual design, software, text, branding, graphics, audio previews and original content are protected by intellectual-property laws.

Except for rights expressly granted under a Product Licence, no ownership or intellectual-property rights are transferred to you.

You may not copy, scrape, reproduce, republish, reverse engineer or commercially exploit the Website or its content without written permission, except where applicable law expressly permits it.

27. Customer releases

You retain ownership of the original lyrics, vocals and other materials created independently by you.

Ownership of a completed Track is divided according to:

  • the applicable Beat Licence;
  • any songwriting agreement;
  • any producer agreement;
  • applicable copyright law.

Nothing in these Terms automatically determines songwriter or publishing splits beyond what is expressly stated in the relevant Licence.

You are responsible for registering accurate ownership shares with distributors, collecting societies and other rights organisations.

28. Copyright complaints

If you believe content on the Website infringes your copyright, contact:

[COPYRIGHT EMAIL]

Include:

  • identification of the protected work;
  • identification of the allegedly infringing content;
  • your contact information;
  • a statement explaining your rights;
  • any supporting documentation;
  • a good-faith declaration that the information is accurate.

We may remove or restrict disputed content while reviewing a complaint.

Knowingly submitting false or misleading claims may expose the sender to legal liability.

29. Website use restrictions

You must not:

  • use the Website unlawfully;
  • interfere with its operation or security;
  • attempt unauthorised access;
  • introduce malware or harmful code;
  • bypass download or access restrictions;
  • scrape or systematically extract the catalogue;
  • automate purchases or downloads without permission;
  • impersonate another person;
  • use stolen payment information;
  • abuse refunds, chargebacks or promotional offers.

30. Chargebacks and payment disputes

Before initiating a chargeback, please contact [SUPPORT EMAIL] so that we can investigate the issue.

A chargeback does not automatically cancel your contractual obligations or Product Licence.

Where a payment is reversed:

  • access to the related Product may be suspended;
  • the associated Licence may be suspended pending resolution;
  • the account may be restricted;
  • we may provide order and delivery records to the payment provider.

Nothing in this section prevents you from exercising a legitimate legal right to dispute an unauthorised or incorrect charge.

31. Support

Support is available through [SUPPORT EMAIL OR SUPPORT URL].

Support may include reasonable assistance with:

  • accessing an order;
  • downloading files;
  • identifying a purchased Licence;
  • reporting corrupted or missing files;
  • managing a Subscription.

Support does not include legal advice, music-distribution management, copyright registration or guaranteed compatibility with every third-party application.

32. Technical requirements

You are responsible for ensuring that your devices, software and internet connection can access and use the purchased files.

File formats and relevant requirements should be reviewed before purchase.

We are not responsible for incompatibility caused by unsupported, obsolete or incorrectly configured third-party software where the delivered Product matches its description.

If a supplied file is corrupted or materially defective, contact us for replacement or another remedy required by law.

33. Third-party services and links

The Website may integrate or link to third-party services, including:

  • payment processors;
  • hosting providers;
  • audio players;
  • social networks;
  • analytics services;
  • email services;
  • music distributors.

Third-party services operate under their own terms and policies.

We are not responsible for their independent content, availability or conduct, except where liability cannot lawfully be excluded.

34. Privacy

Personal information is handled as described in our Privacy Policy:

[PRIVACY POLICY URL]

The Privacy Policy explains the types of data processed, purposes, legal bases, retention periods, service providers and applicable rights.

Where the GDPR applies, personal-data processing must have a lawful basis and individuals have rights regarding their data.

35. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate access where we reasonably believe that you have:

  • materially breached these Terms or a Licence;
  • redistributed protected files;
  • made unauthorised Content ID claims;
  • used fraudulent payment methods;
  • compromised Website security;
  • repeatedly abused support, refunds or chargebacks.

Where reasonably possible, we may provide notice and an opportunity to correct the breach.

Termination does not remove obligations or liabilities arising before termination.

Valid licences already granted may survive account closure unless they were obtained fraudulently, payment was reversed or the Licence itself was terminated for material breach.

36. Disclaimer of warranties

We will provide Products and services with reasonable care and in accordance with their descriptions.

However, except for guarantees that cannot legally be excluded, we do not guarantee that:

  • the Website will always be uninterrupted or error-free;
  • a Beat or Pack will achieve a particular artistic or commercial result;
  • a Track will be accepted by a distributor or platform;
  • a Product will be compatible with every device or application;
  • a particular Beat will remain available for future purchase;
  • use of a non-exclusive Beat will be unique.

Nothing in these Terms excludes statutory guarantees or remedies that apply to consumers.

37. Limitation of liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law, including liability for fraud, intentional misconduct or other non-excludable matters.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, including loss of profit, revenue, opportunity, audience, reputation or data, arising from use of the Website or Products.

Where permitted by law, our total liability relating to a particular Product or order will not exceed the amount paid for that Product or order.

This limitation does not restrict mandatory consumer rights or remedies.

38. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to be responsible for third-party claims, losses or reasonable costs resulting from:

  • material supplied by you;
  • your unlawful use of a Product;
  • your breach of a Licence;
  • an unauthorised ownership or Content ID claim;
  • your infringement of another person’s rights.

This section does not apply to the extent the claim was caused by our own breach or unlawful conduct.

39. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect:

  • changes to the Website;
  • new Products or features;
  • changes in law;
  • security or operational requirements;
  • clarification of existing provisions.

The updated version will be posted with a revised “Last updated” date.

Material changes affecting an active Subscription or existing Licence will not apply retroactively where doing so would unlawfully reduce rights already granted.

Where legally required, advance notice will be provided.

40. Transfer

You may not transfer these Terms, your account or a Product Licence without written permission, except where the applicable Licence expressly allows it.

We may transfer our rights and obligations as part of a business reorganisation, merger or sale, provided this does not reduce mandatory consumer rights.

41. Severability

If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

The invalid provision will be interpreted or replaced only to the minimum extent necessary to make it lawful and enforceable.

42. No waiver

Failure to enforce a provision immediately does not waive the right to enforce it later.

A waiver is effective only where clearly confirmed in writing.

43. Entire agreement

These Terms, the applicable Product Licence, the Privacy Policy and the information presented at checkout form the agreement relating to your purchase and use of the Website.

They replace previous discussions concerning the same subject, except for a separate written agreement signed by the relevant parties.

44. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of [COUNTRY OR STATE], without excluding mandatory consumer protections that apply in your country of residence.

Subject to any mandatory consumer-jurisdiction rules, disputes will be submitted to the courts of [CITY, COUNTRY].

Before commencing formal proceedings, both parties are encouraged to contact each other and attempt to resolve the matter in good faith.
