In jurisdictions where Moral Rights cannot be waived or assigned (including but not limited to France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Italy, and India), the Licensee agrees to always credit the Sample Maker as the original creator of the Loops in any Derivative Work, and not to make any derogatory treatment of the Loops that would harm the Sample Maker’s honor or reputation.
Section 2.5 — Making Available and Digital Exploitation
Any making available of any Loop or Derivative Work via the internet, streaming services, download platforms, or any other digital network — in any country — constitutes a use requiring Clearance under this Agreement and under the Making Available Right recognized in the WIPO Copyright Treaty and applicable national implementations thereof, including but not limited to the EU Information Society Directive (2001/29/EC), the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 (as amended), the Indian Copyright Act 1957 (as amended), and equivalent statutes worldwide.

All right, title, and interest in and to the Loops, including without limitation all copyrights, moral rights, neighboring rights, making-available rights, broadcast rights, rental and lending rights, and all other intellectual property rights embodied therein, throughout the Territory and in perpetuity, are and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of the Sample Maker. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a transfer, assignment, or conveyance of any ownership interest in the Loops to the Licensee, the Distributor, or any third party.
Section 3.2 — Distributor’s Limited Role
The Licensee expressly acknowledges and agrees that LoopDigger (the Distributor) acts solely as a distribution intermediary and does not own, control, or have any proprietary interest in the Loops in any jurisdiction. The Distributor makes no representations or warranties regarding the availability of Clearance, the terms upon which Clearance may be granted, or the willingness of the Sample Maker to grant Clearance for any particular use in any territory.
Section 3.3 — No Implied Licenses
No license, right, or interest in the Loops is granted to the Licensee by implication, estoppel, or operation of law in any jurisdiction. The only rights granted are those expressly set out in a duly executed Clearance agreement signed by the Sample Maker. The absence of any explicit prohibition shall not be construed as a grant of permission.
Section 4.1 — Distributor’s Disclaimer of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW IN ANY JURISDICTION, LOOPDIGGER (THE DISTRIBUTOR) SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH: (A) ANY UNAUTHORIZED USE, MISUSE, OR INFRINGEMENT OF THE LOOPS BY THE LICENSEE OR ANY THIRD PARTY IN ANY COUNTRY; (B) ANY FAILURE BY THE LICENSEE TO OBTAIN PROPER CLEARANCE PRIOR TO USE OF THE LOOPS IN ANY TERRITORY; (C) ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE SAMPLE MAKER, ANY COLLECTING SOCIETY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, PRS, SOCAN, APRA AMCOS, IMRO, SACEM, GEMA, SIAE, PPL, OR ANY EQUIVALENT BODY WORLDWIDE), ANY PUBLISHER, OR ANY OTHER RIGHTS HOLDER AGAINST THE LICENSEE IN ANY JURISDICTION; (D) ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY; OR (E) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE LOOPS, THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
Section 4.2 — Assumption of Risk
The Licensee assumes all risk associated with the use of the Loops in every jurisdiction. The Licensee acknowledges that unauthorized use of the Loops may result in claims for copyright infringement, statutory damages under 17 U.S.C. § 504, and equivalent remedies under the laws of any country, including but not limited to additional damages under the UK CDPA 1988, flagrant infringement damages under the Australian Copyright Act 1968, enhanced damages under India’s Copyright Act 1957, and such other remedies as may be available at law or in equity in any jurisdiction.
Section 4.3 — Indemnification
The Licensee shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless LoopDigger (the Distributor), and its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns, from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and costs in any jurisdiction) arising out of or in connection with: (i) the Licensee’s breach of this Agreement; (ii) the Licensee’s unauthorized use of the Loops in any territory; (iii) any claim that the Licensee’s use of the Loops infringes or violates the rights of any third party under the laws of any jurisdiction; or (iv) any enforcement action, takedown, or collection proceeding initiated by any rights holder or collecting society worldwide as a result of the Licensee’s use of the Loops.
Section 5.1 — Licensee’s Representations
By acquiring the website, the Licensee represents and warrants that:

Section 5.2 — Disclaimer of Warranties by Distributor

Section 6.3 — Compliance with Local Law
The Licensee is solely responsible for ensuring that their use of the Loops complies with all applicable laws and regulations in every jurisdiction in which such use takes place, including but not limited to copyright law, neighboring rights law, performance rights obligations, and any registration or reporting requirements imposed by local collecting societies or regulatory bodies.

Section 6.5 — Severability
If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction and of all provisions in all other jurisdictions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Any invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable.
Section 6.6 — Entire Agreement

Section 6.10 — Acceptance
BY DOWNLOADING, ACCESSING, OR OTHERWISE ACQUIRING THE SAMPLE PACK, THE LICENSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THEY HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT, UNDERSTAND IT, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS IN EVERY JURISDICTION WORLDWIDE.
Section 7.1 — Preamble and Scope of Instrumental Deliverables
Notwithstanding any clause, provision, covenant, or representation contained elsewhere in this Agreement or on the Services to the contrary, any and all audio files, sound recordings, musical compositions, digital audio workstation templates, MIDI files, stems, or underlying assets designated, categorized, tagged, marketed, or otherwise represented as "beats," "instrumentals," "backing tracks," or "instrumental compositions" (hereinafter referred to as the "Beats" or "Instrumental Works") that are accessed, streamed, previewed, downloaded, purchased, or otherwise acquired via the Services are governed exclusively by the terms, restrictions, covenants, and conditions set forth under this Article VII. The acquisition of Beats through the Services, regardless of the purchase tier or method of delivery, is strictly limited to the granting of a non-exclusive, highly restricted, revocable license as expressly defined in the corresponding license agreement issued at checkout. Under no circumstances, whether by implication, estoppel, operation of law, or course of dealing, shall any transaction on the platform be construed as an assignment, sale, transfer, or conveyance of the underlying copyright, title, ownership, proprietary interest, or moral rights in and to either the sound recording (the master) or the underlying musical composition embodied within the Beats. All right, title, and interest in and to the Beats remain vested solely and exclusively in LoopDigger and/or the respective original creators, producers, or licensors thereof (the "Licensors"), throughout the universe in perpetuity.
Section 7.2 — Express Condition Precedent of Monetary Consideration and License Validation
The validity, enforceability, and legal existence of any license granted to the Licensee for the use of any Beat is strictly conditioned upon the absolute completion and verification of the corresponding monetary consideration (payment) as a condition precedent. The Licensee hereby acknowledges and agrees that no rights of any kind—whether promotional, non-commercial, or commercial—shall accrue, vest, or be deemed to have been granted to the Licensee unless and until:
Any access to, download of, or utilization of the Beats in the absence of such fully-cleared payment and formal license issuance constitutes an unauthorized, unlawful appropriation of intellectual property, rendering any subsequent derivative composition void ab initio and establishing a strict-liability copyright infringement actionable under all applicable national and international statutes.
Section 7.3 — Categorization of Commercial Exploitation and Strict Licensing Restrictions
The Licensee hereby warrants and agrees that any and all commercial exploitation, monetization, physical reproduction, digital distribution, synchronization, public performance, or public dissemination of the Beats, in whole or in part, modified or unmodified, is strictly prohibited unless the Licensee has acquired a valid commercial license that specifically authorizes the intended scope of utilization. For the avoidance of doubt, "commercial exploitation" is defined broadly and shall encompass:
Any commercial use of the Beats that exceeds the quantitative limitations (such as stream counts, distribution units, or synchronization rights) of the specific license tier purchased, or any commercial use whatsoever in the absence of a license, is a material breach of this Agreement and a direct infringement of the copyrights in the Beats.
Section 7.4 — Administrative and Judicial Remedies for Infringing Exploitation
In the event that the Licensee or any third party acting in concert with the Licensee engages in the commercial use, distribution, or exploitation of the Beats without obtaining the requisite license, or in violation of the specific terms of a purchased license, LoopDigger and the respective Licensors reserve the absolute, unencumbered, and unilateral right to pursue any and all legal, equitable, and administrative remedies available under national and international laws. The Licensee hereby consents and agrees that the Rights Holders may immediately and without prior notice or warning:
The Licensee explicitly waives any right to object to, contest, or seek damages for such takedowns or copyright claims, acknowledging that their failure to secure a valid license forms the sole legal basis for such administrative enforcement.
Section 7.5 — Strict Liability, Waiver of Defenses, and Statutory Damages
The Licensee acknowledges that copyright infringement is a strict-liability tort, and that lack of knowledge, absence of intent to infringe, claims of fair use, de minimis utilization, or reliance on third-party representations shall not constitute a defense to any claim of copyright infringement brought under this Article VII. In the event of any unauthorized use or licensing breach, LoopDigger and the Licensors shall be entitled to seek the maximum remedies available under the law, including:
The Licensee hereby waives any requirement for the posting of a bond or other security by LoopDigger or the Licensors in connection with any injunctive relief sought to restrain the unauthorized exploitation of the Beats.
Section 7.6 — Indemnification and Hold Harmless Obligations
The Licensee agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless LoopDigger, its parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, Licensors, and successors in interest (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, judgments, settlements, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and litigation expenses) arising out of or in connection with:
This indemnification obligation shall survive the expiration, termination, or cancellation of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect in perpetuity throughout the Territory.
Section 7.7 — Third-Party Beneficiary Status of Licensors
The Licensee explicitly acknowledges and agrees that the original creators, producers, sample makers, and licensors of the Beats distributed via the platform are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Article VII. Accordingly, each such producer or rights holder shall have the direct, independent, and unencumbered right to enforce the terms, conditions, restrictions, and remedies set forth in this Article VII directly against the Licensee in their own name, without the necessity of joining LoopDigger as a party to any mediation, arbitration, lawsuit, or enforcement proceeding. LoopDigger disclaims any obligation to mediate, arbitrate, or participate in any litigation between the Licensee and any third-party producer regarding the use or exploitation of the Beats.
Section 7.8 — Waiver of Jury Trial and Class Action Waiver
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE LICENSEE AND LOOPDIGGER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE BEATS, OR THE SERVICES. FURTHERMORE, ANY PROCEEDING TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. THE LICENSEE SHALL NOT SEEK TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE HEARD AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, AND AGREES THAT NO PROCEEDING SHALL BE JOINED, CONSOLIDATED, OR COMBINED WITH ANOTHER PROCEEDING WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALL PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT.
Section 7.9 — Prohibition of Audio Fingerprinting and Content ID Registration
The Licensee is strictly and absolutely prohibited from registering the Beat, or any derivative composition or sound recording incorporating the Beat, with any audio fingerprinting service, content identification database, or rights administration entity (including but not limited to YouTube Content ID, Meta Rights Manager, TikTok, or SoundExchange) under their own name or via any digital distributor. The Licensee acknowledges that doing so would create false ownership matches against third-party licensees who have legally acquired separate licenses to the same Beat, causing substantial commercial disruption to the Services and other users. Violation of this Section 7.9 constitutes a material breach of contract and a tortious interference with contractual relations, entitling LoopDigger and the Licensors to immediate injunctive relief and the recovery of all attendant damages and litigation expenses.
Section 7.10 — Audit and Verification Rights
LoopDigger and the Licensors reserve the right to audit, verify, and investigate the Licensee's monetization, stream counts, physical unit sales, and broadcast logs associated with any derivative work incorporating a Beat. Upon ten (10) business days' written notice, the Licensee shall provide complete, unredacted distribution statements, performance royalty logs, digital distributor reports, and sales ledgers relevant to the exploitation of the Beat. Failure to provide such documentation or to cooperate in good faith with an audit request shall result in the immediate and automatic revocation of all licenses granted under this Agreement.
Section 7.11 — DRM and Watermark Circumvention Prohibition
All Beats distributed through the Services may contain electronic watermarks, digital rights management (DRM) parameters, metadata markers, or hidden identifiers for the purpose of tracking usage and verifying licensing compliance. The Licensee is prohibited from stripping, altering, disabling, evading, or circumventing these watermarks or markers. Any attempt to modify the metadata or audio identifiers embedded within the Beat file is a violation of these Terms of Use and is actionable under the DMCA anti-circumvention provisions.
Section 7.12 — Unauthorized Sub-licensing and Reselling Ban
Under no circumstances may the Licensee lease, rent, sell, sub-license, assign, gift, or otherwise transfer any rights granted under a Beat license to a third party, except as explicitly authorized in the purchased license agreement for the purpose of distributing the completed derivative song to end consumers. The redistribution of the Beat as a standalone instrumental, backing track, or loop compilation is strictly forbidden and constitutes a criminal violation of copyright.
Section 7.13 — Force Majeure and Platform Availability Disclaimers
LoopDigger does not warrant or guarantee continuous, uninterrupted access to the Beats download portal or the permanent availability of specific Beats on the platform. The Licensee is solely responsible for downloading and securely backing up all purchased Beats immediately upon transaction completion. LoopDigger shall not be liable for any losses, missed release dates, or damages resulting from server outages, database failures, force majeure events, or the removal of Beats due to copyright disputes or artist requests.
Section 6.11 — Beat Marketplace Split Sheets (BeatStars & Similar Platforms)
In plain terms: some producers who upload loops to LoopDigger may expect a split — meaning a share of the songwriting or publishing credit — if you use their loop in a beat you sell on platforms like BeatStars. This is between you and the producer. LoopDigger is not involved in, and takes no responsibility for, any split sheet agreements or disputes between producers and beat sellers. It is your responsibility to check whether the producer of any loop you use expects a split before you sell or distribute that beat. Always check before you sell.
