Terms of Use

You retain ownership of content you upload. You grant BBX a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, transcode, stream, display, promote, and distribute that content as reasonably necessary to operate and market the Platform and complete authorized transactions. This license ends when the content is removed, except for existing licenses, transaction records, cached copies, legal retention, and promotional material already produced.

You represent and warrant that you own or control all necessary rights to your beats, compositions, masters, samples, artwork, names, likenesses, metadata, and other content; that your content does not infringe or violate another person’s rights; and that you have disclosed and cleared all samples, collaborators, publishers, and other interests. You are responsible for royalties, splits, permissions, taxes, and obligations associated with your content and sales.

Controlling terms. A beat purchase grants a limited license only under the license tier, price, and terms displayed on the beat listing or during checkout. Those transaction-specific terms are incorporated into these Terms and control if they conflict with this general section. No copyright, publishing interest, master ownership, trademark, or other ownership right transfers unless the applicable license expressly says so in writing.

Permitted scope. Subject to full payment and the purchased tier’s limits, the buyer may download the delivered files, combine the beat with original vocals or other authorized material to create a new song, reproduce and distribute that song, publicly perform it, and use it in monetized content only to the extent the purchased license permits. Any stream, sale, copy, video, performance, territory, term, platform, synchronization, broadcast, or monetization limits shown for the tier remain binding. Required producer credit must be given in substantially the form stated with the license.

Non-exclusive and exclusive rights. A non-exclusive license allows the producer to continue offering the beat and allows other buyers to license it. An exclusive license prevents new licenses after the exclusive sale only to the extent stated in that license; valid licenses issued earlier remain effective. Exclusivity does not transfer underlying third-party samples, compositions, trademarks, or other rights not owned or controlled by the seller.

Restrictions. Unless the purchased license expressly allows it, a buyer may not resell, sublicense, share, distribute, upload, or make the beat available by itself or in substantially unchanged form; claim authorship of the beat; register the beat or any substantially unchanged version in a content-identification system in a way that blocks the producer or other valid licensees; use it to train an AI model; or use it unlawfully, deceptively, or in violation of another person’s rights. A license may not be transferred to another person or entity without the seller’s written consent.

Clearances and records. The producer remains responsible for disclosures and rights they are required to secure. The buyer remains responsible for any additional clearance required by the buyer’s particular use, including featured artists, added samples, video footage, artwork, and publicity rights. Licenses completed before a beat is removed generally remain valid according to their terms. Buyers and sellers should retain the receipt, license, and downloaded files as their transaction record.

Payment authorization. Prices, Platform fees, revenue shares, subscription terms, curator submission charges, and payout terms are disclosed before the applicable transaction and may change prospectively. Purchases are processed by Stripe and may also be subject to Stripe’s terms. You authorize the displayed charge, represent that you are authorized to use the selected payment method, and agree that taxes or currency conversion may change the final amount where disclosed at checkout.

Delivery. A beat license is ordinarily delivered electronically after Stripe confirms successful payment. Delivery may include access through the buyer’s BBX account, a download control, a time-limited secure link, and a digital receipt or license record. Industry Insider submission purchases are delivered when the paid submission is placed in the selected curator’s review queue; they do not include a beat download or guarantee a response by a particular date unless checkout expressly states one.

Access and delivery problems. Buyers are responsible for using a correct email address, maintaining account access, and promptly downloading and safely backing up purchased files and license records. Temporary processing, security review, network, storage, or payment delays do not by themselves mean delivery failed. If payment succeeds but the promised access is not provided, the buyer should contact BBX through the support method available on the Platform with the receipt and transaction details so we can restore access, redeliver the files, or investigate.

Subscriptions and taxes. Subscriptions renew at the disclosed interval until canceled. Cancellation stops future renewal and does not ordinarily refund the current period. Features, limits, and prices may change with reasonable advance notice where required. You are responsible for taxes arising from your activity and for providing accurate tax and payout information.

Digital purchases are generally final. Because licensed files and digital access can be used or copied immediately, completed beat purchases, downloaded licenses, Vault access, subscription periods already started, and curator submission fees are non-refundable except where required by law or expressly stated at checkout.

When a refund may be considered. BBX may approve a full or partial refund for a duplicate charge, a verified technical failure that prevents delivery and cannot be corrected within a reasonable time, a purchase that materially differs from what checkout promised, an unauthorized transaction confirmed through our review, or another circumstance required by applicable consumer law. Change of mind, failure to use a purchase, dissatisfaction with a curator’s decision, failure to receive certification or placement, exceeding a license limit, or purchasing the wrong tier ordinarily does not qualify. A curator submission is not refundable once review has begun, unless required by law.

How to request help. Contact BBX through the support method available on the Platform before opening a payment dispute. Include the account email, transaction date, amount, and reason, but never send a full card number. Requesting review does not guarantee a refund. Any approved refund is returned through Stripe to the original payment method; bank processing times may vary.

Chargebacks. Stripe and the relevant financial institutions administer chargebacks and may request transaction, delivery, download, account, license, or communication records. Filing a chargeback does not automatically cancel a license or other payment obligation unless the transaction is reversed. If a payment is refunded, reversed, or charged back, the related license and access may be suspended or terminated, the buyer must stop using and distributing the affected material, and associated files must be deleted, subject to applicable law and the final dispute outcome. Fraudulent or abusive disputes may result in account restriction or termination.

We may withhold, reverse, or delay seller or curator payouts to address refunds, chargebacks, fraud, disputes, sanctions, legal obligations, negative balances, or violations of these Terms. Nothing in this section limits non-waivable consumer rights.
