Terms of Service
Last updated: April 17, 2026
1. Acceptance of terms
By creating an account, uploading content, or purchasing a license on beatsheaven.com (the "Service") operated by beatsheaven ("we", "us", "our"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old or have legal parental consent to use the Service. By registering you warrant that all account information is accurate and that you have the legal right to enter into these Terms.
3. Accounts and security
You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use. We may suspend or terminate accounts for breach of these Terms without prior notice when the breach is severe.
4. Producer content
Producers retain ownership of all copyright in beats uploaded to the Service. By uploading, producers grant beatsheaven a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, stream, transcode, promote, and deliver the beat to buyers under the license terms the producer configures.
5. Buyer licenses
Each purchase issues a license instance governed by the terms the producer set at the time of sale. Buyers may not resell, redistribute, or sub-license the underlying beat outside the granted rights. Unauthorized use is a breach of these Terms and of copyright law.
6. Fees and commissions
Free-tier producers pay a 9% platform commission on each sale. PRO-tier producers pay 0% commission and $14.99/month as a subscription. Prices are subject to change with 30 days' notice.
7. Payouts
Producer payouts are issued via Stripe Connect, landing in the producer's bank account on a daily schedule after Stripe's standard verification. We comply with applicable tax-withholding rules in the producer's jurisdiction.
8. Refunds
All sales are final once the license PDF and files are delivered. Exceptions apply for fraudulent transactions, duplicate charges, or producer-side defects, handled on a case-by-case basis.
9. Prohibited conduct
You may not upload content you do not own, harass other users, interfere with the Service, scrape or bulk-download preview audio, or resell buyer accounts. Violations may result in account termination and referral to law enforcement.
10. Intellectual property of the Service
The beatsheaven name, logo, and all original code, design, and documentation are owned by beatsheaven (the operator) and protected by Canadian and international copyright, trademark, and trade-secret law.
11. Disclaimers
The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not warrant uninterrupted operation, error-free delivery, or suitability for any particular purpose beyond what is expressly stated.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, beatsheaven's total liability for any claim arising from use of the Service is limited to the greater of CAD 150 or the fees you paid in the preceding 12 months.
13. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by Canadian law (the province of residence of the operator). Disputes are subject to the jurisdiction of courts in that province. Users may also pursue small-value consumer claims in their local jurisdiction where required by law.
14. Changes and contact
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be notified at least 30 days in advance by email and in-app notification. Contact: legal@beatsheaven.com.
