auto-song Distribution Agreement
As of December 04, 2024
This Distribution Agreement (this "Agreement") is a binding legal agreement between you and Vanilla Media, a Hong Kong company ("auto-song" or "us") regarding your use of our auto-song service to distribute your musical works, recordings, audio-visual works, photographic works, literary works, fine art works, graphic works, and portraits, photographs, and propaganda works related to the aforementioned works to selected digital services and stores (our "Service"). If you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of one or more other people, a group, or a company or other entity, then by accepting this Agreement you represent and warrant to us that you are duly authorized to do so on behalf of all such person(s)/entity(ies) and to bind them to this Agreement and that auto-song is fully entitled to rely on that fact (in which case, the term "you" includes all such people and entities).
By clicking to agree to this Agreement, you are accepting the terms and conditions below, so please read and understand them completely before doing so. Once you do so, this Agreement will automatically become effective 2024-12-04.
AUTOSONG DOESN'T TAKE ANY COPYRIGHT OR OTHER INTEREST IN ANY OF YOUR MUSIC, ONLY A LIMITED LICENSE TO DISTRIBUTE.
PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT YOU MUST OWN OR OTHERWISE HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO REPRODUCE AND DISTRIBUTE 100% OF THE RECORDINGS, ARTWORK AND ANY OTHER MATERIAL (included but not limited to musical works, recordings, audio-visual works, photographic works, literary works, fine art works, graphic works, and portraits, photographs, and propaganda works related to the aforementioned works) THAT YOU INTEND TO UPLOAD AND DISTRIBUTE VIA THE auto-song SERVICE, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAKE AND DISTRIBUTE DIGITAL DOWNLOADS EMBODYING THE MUSICAL COMPOSITIONS THEREIN, AS NECESSARY.
FOR EXAMPLE, YOU CANNOT DELIVER TO US ANY "COVER VERSIONS," REMIXES, OR RECORDINGS THAT INCLUDE SAMPLES UNLESS YOU HAVE ALL NECESSARY WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM THE SONGWRITERS AND FROM THE OWNERS OF THE APPLICABLE ORIGINAL RECORDINGS.
1. THE AUTOSONG SERVICE AND YOUR RECORDINGS
- The auto-song Service enables you to upload to our servers digital files containing audio-only musical sound recordings ("Recordings") for distribution to your choice of digital stores, streaming services, and other digital services within our distribution network ("Digital Stores"), who may make your Recordings available to their customers and end users ("Customers").
- Recordings must be musical sound recordings in single track, EP, or album configuration (however, please note that Digital Stores will make your Recordings available to Customers to purchase or stream as individual tracks — i.e., you cannot require that a Customer purchase or stream an entire album or EP as a single unit). We typically do not accept or distribute ringtones, videos, audio books, spoken-word records or other types of content.
- We can currently accept Recordings in WAV format up to 250 MB in size (with 44kHz or 96kHz for WAV files). Please remove all embedded metadata from the audio file as it will cause error during the upload process. We and/or the Digital Stores may require different formats or file sizes from time to time during the Term.
- When uploading each Recording, you must provide us with all accompanying data that we or a Digital Store may require (e.g., artist name, album title, each track title, genre), plus any available cover art (in JPG format with RGB color or any other format that we or a Digital Store may require). For purposes of this Agreement, all such data, metadata, information, image files, artwork and any other materials you provide to us are included in the definition of "Recordings." We may also require that you indicate if the Recording contains explicit content, in which case a Digital Store may tag it accordingly.
- We will automatically generate unique ISRC for each Recording and provide them to your chosen Digital Stores. You can choose to specify your own ISRC codes, but not UPC codes.
- Once you have distributed a Recording through our Site, you can delete it at any time during the Term. However, you can't remove a single track that was included within an album — if you want to do that, you must delete the entire album and then re-upload the album with that song removed.
2. DIGITAL STORES
- It's entirely up to you which Digital Stores you want us to distribute your Recordings to. Our rights are non-exclusive, — meaning that you can still distribute (or give anyone else the right to distribute) via that Digital Store any of the same Recordings that you upload to our Service.
- We undertake to provide your Recordings to Digital Stores as quickly as possible. However, it can take a few hours to a few days to several weeks for a Digital Store to integrate process and make your Recordings available to Customers, depending on the particular Digital Store and the territory. Please be patient.
- Each Digital Store will determine its pricing to its Customers, as well as format or media and other terms on which it offers recordings (including your Recordings) to its Customers, in its discretion and according to its business model. For example, in some cases your Recordings may be available for permanent digital download on a pay-per-unit basis, in others Customers may pay a monthly subscription fee to be able to stream or temporarily download your Recordings along with other recordings. By way of further example, Digital Stores may also offer your Recordings for free on a promotional basis, alone or together with other recordings, may include (or decline to include) your Recordings in marketing promotions, may create editorial content about your Recordings and the featured artists, may group Recordings by genre or other designation, may create and allow Customers and others to listen to free preview clips of your Recordings, all in their discretion. Digital Stores usually adhere to custom pricing, ultimately stores can price however they like. We are not responsible for what Digital Stores do, and by opting into a particular Digital Store, you agree to accept and have your Recordings made available to its Customers in accordance with its pricing structure and other practices and policies from time to time, and in accordance with its agreement with auto-song.
- We will distribute your Recordings to your selected Distribution Channels on a worldwide basis (you can't specify only certain countries or territories for particular Recordings). The "Territory" of this Agreement is the universe.
- Digital Stores may choose not to carry one or more of your Recordings at all or in certain territories (or to remove Recordings at any time) per their policies and practices, so we can't make any guarantees. We may also decline to distribute (or may remove from Digital Stores) one or more Recordings from any or all Digital Stores if we receive any legal claims regarding that Recording, if we reasonably believe that any legal claims or issues may arise, if a Recording may violate the terms and conditions of any Digital Store, or for any other reason in our business judgment. And if our agreement with any Digital Store expires or terminates, or if that Digital Store ceases to operate entirely or in a particular territory, then your Recordings will no longer be available through that Digital Store.
- By opting into a Digital Store, you warrant to auto-song that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of that Digital Store, and that you and your Recordings and other content will comply fully with those terms and conditions.
3. YOUR ACCOUNT
- When you register for our Service, you will establish a username and password that will provide access to an online user dashboard for your account on our website, currently https://www.auto-song.com/. Please keep your username and password safe and secure, as you will be solely responsible for any Recordings and other content uploaded and for all financial transactions and other activity conducted through your account. We will not be responsible for any activity transacted via or through your account.
- The artist name(s) you choose will last for the duration of the term of your agreement with us, and can't be changed. Please ensure the metadata and content uploaded are 100% correct. If any change is needed, you have to take down the release then re-upload again.
- Your annual registration fee and all other fees must be paid every year through PayPal with a valid credit card or debit card or available credit and, as described below under "Term," until you terminate the Term of this Agreement. Therefore, you must maintain a valid credit card or debit card or available credit on account with us throughout the Term. We currently accept PayPal which supports Visa, MasterCard and American Express, etc., but reserve the right to add or change payment methods during the Term. You expressly authorize auto-song to charge the applicable amount, plus any applicable taxes, to the PayPal account you provided or, in our sole discretion, to deduct that amount from monies payable by us to you. Any refunds are in auto-song's sole discretion. In addition, if you owe any fees or other amounts to auto-song, we may deduct or set-off such amounts from any current or future payments to you, in addition to our other rights and remedies.
- auto-song reserves all rights to change the price, business model and policies.
4. TERM
- The term of this Agreement and our Services hereunder (the "Term") will begin on the Effective Date and will continue for one (1) year, unless renewed or terminated earlier.
- The Term will renew at the end of each annual contract period. We currently accept PayPal as payment method and you have to pay through a valid PayPal account which is linked with a valid credit card or debit card or available credit.
- If your payment has not been received after 30 days of the end of the agreement, your account and all uploaded content will be deleted. Content that has been released on digital music platforms will also be removed.
- auto-song may terminate the Term for any reason, including but not limited to if we reasonably believe that you or any of your Recordings or other content has violated this Agreement or the terms and conditions of any Digital Store, that you or your Recordings infringe the intellectual property or other rights of any person or entity, if we are told by Digital Stores or reasonably believe that Digital Stores will not accept your content specifically or categorically, or that you are otherwise abusing our Service or any Digital Store or engaging in fraudulent or illegal activity. We may also terminate the Term if the credit or debit card that you provided to us expires, is cancelled, if our attempts to charge your Service fee are declined for any reason, or if we reasonably believe that charges were incurred fraudulently. So if the number, expiration date, billing address, or any other card or account information changes, please be sure to update your auto-song account promptly via the Site user account setting or Paypal account setting for the transaction information. At our sole option, we may nevertheless elect to renew the Term and to deduct the applicable renewal fee from any and all sums payable to you hereunder. We may also terminate the Term if our Service is discontinued for any reason without any compensation.
- After the end of the Term, we will notify all applicable Digital Stores to remove your Recordings and will have no further obligation to you other than to account and pay for monies earned during the Term. Customers who downloaded or otherwise accessed your Recordings may be able to retain and continue listening to your Recordings even after the Term of this Agreement is over.
