Terms of Service

Last updated: Feb 15, 2026

1. Agreement

By creating an account on DistributeMusic.AI you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (16 in the EU) and have the legal right to upload and distribute the music you submit. Accounts found in violation may be suspended.

3. Content rights & licenses

  • You retain 100% ownership of your masters and compositions.
  • You grant DistributeMusic.AI a non-exclusive license to ingest, encode, deliver and report on your tracks to DSPs (Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, etc.) for the duration of distribution.
  • You can take down your tracks anytime — takedowns typically reflect on DSPs within 7–14 days.

4. AI-generated music

If your track was created with an AI tool (Suno, Udio, MusicGen, ElevenLabs, etc.) you must enable the AI-disclosure flag during upload. We auto-tag this in the DDEX delivery. Failing to disclose may cause DSP takedowns; you accept full responsibility for accurate disclosure.

5. Voice cloning & rights

If your track uses a synthetic vocal cloned from a real person, you must have written consent from that person on file. We may request proof at any time. We will not distribute tracks that infringe third-party rights (copyrighted melodies, unauthorized samples, voice clones without consent).

6. Royalties & payouts

  • You keep 100% of streaming royalties on paid plans (85% on the free Starter plan).
  • Withdrawals minimum: $5. Methods: PayPal, Stripe Connect, bank transfer (Wise).
  • Withdrawals are reviewed by our finance team within 3 business days. Approved payouts arrive in 1–5 business days depending on method.
  • If a payout request is rejected, the amount is refunded to your royalty balance immediately.
  • Tax: we issue a 1099 (US) or equivalent annual statement once you cross $600/yr.

7. Plans, billing & refunds

Plans (Pro $10/yr, Label $50/yr) are billed annually via Stripe. You can cancel anytime — your releases stay live. Refunds: full refund within 7 days of purchase if you have not yet released a track.

8. Acceptable use

Prohibited: copyright infringement, hate speech, CSAM, deepfake political content, royalty farming (uploading thousands of low-quality tracks designed solely to game royalties), impersonating other artists. Violations result in immediate account suspension and possible legal action.

9. Termination

You can delete your account anytime from Settings. We may terminate accounts that violate these Terms with email notice. Pending royalties owed remain payable on standard schedule.

10. Liability & warranties

The service is provided "as is". We are not liable for losses caused by DSP delays, takedowns, or third-party failures. Maximum aggregate liability: the fees you paid in the prior 12 months.

11. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms; material changes will be emailed to you with 30 days notice.

12. Governing law & contact

These Terms are governed by the laws of Delaware, USA. Disputes: binding arbitration under JAMS rules. Contact: legal@distributemusic.ai or contact form.
