PERSONAL DATA: You agree to provide only true, accurate and complete information to us via the Site or the App. Any personal information provided by Users will be treated with appropriate care and security in accordance with, and by agreeing to this Agreement you expressly agree to the terms of, our Privacy Policy.
Contracting parties. The Site, together with all content, data and other materials contained therein (“Content”) is owned and/or controlled by Beatbox (2022) Limited, a company incorporated in England with its registered office at 91 Peterborough Road, London SW6 3BU, UK.

Passwords. You agree: to keep your password secure and confidential and to not allow anyone else to use your email address or password to access the Site, or any Content; to not do anything which would assist anyone who is not a Registered User to gain access to any secured area of the Site, and; to not create additional registration accounts for the purpose of abusing the functionality of the Site, or any Content, or other Users, or to seek to pass yourself off as another User. If you think someone else has obtained your account details, please let us know immediately via support@getbeatbox.co and we will close your account as quickly as possible. Please note that you will be responsible to Beatbox and to others for all activity that occurs under your registration account.
The Beatbox Service. Beatbox is an online subscription service that allows you to browse and download pre-recorded sounds, loops and samples (“Products”), and from time to time also to individually purchase downloadable Products intended as tools for you to use for and within your music creation and production activities (collectively, the “Service”). The Service also allows you to upload your own User Content (as defined below) for the purposes and in accordance with the rules listed on the Site and/or the App. Details of how to purchase Products are listed on the Site. We reserve the right at any time to modify or discontinue the Service (or any part or content thereof) without notice at any time. We shall not be liable for any modification, change, suspension or discontinuance of the Service. We reserve the right to limit the sales or availability of Products or any other aspect of the Service to any person, geographic region or jurisdiction (which may be on a case-by-case basis). All descriptions of Products or Product pricing are subject to change at any time without notice. Any offer for any Product or service made on the Site is void where prohibited. We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per order. In the event that we make a change to (or if we cancel) an order, we may attempt to notify you by contacting the email and/or billing address/phone number provided at the time the order was made. We reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in our sole judgment, appear to be placed by dealers, resellers or distributors
Content. The Site and the Content are intended only for the purposes specified or implied therein, and your use of the Site and Content is entirely at your own risk. Please note, whilst we endeavour to provide accurate and up-to-date information, the Content may not be wholly accurate or up-to-date, complete or free of defects, and is subject to change, often at very short notice. All Content is provided without any representations or warranties of any kind (implied or express) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Beatbox, unless otherwise stated herein, owns or controls all relevant intellectual property rights in the Site and the Content. You may not publish, distribute, extract, re-utilise, or reproduce any part of the Site or the Content in any form (including storing it in any medium) other than as expressly allowed herein or as set out in the Site and the Content (or under UK or local law). Save as expressly set out in this Agreement, the Site and the Content are for your personal use only, and are not for re-distribution, transfer, assignment or sublicense. Beatbox will not be responsible if a Product does not fit your particular purpose.
Subscriptions. A User who opens an account, accepts this Agreement and pays the subscription fee shall be a Subscriber. As a Subscriber, you may download Products in exchange for redemption of your BeatBox credits, in each case up to the limit under your applicable subscription tier, and any additional credits that you may purchase at any time (“Credits”). Subscriptions will be renewed on the existing basis in each case at the end of the agreed period, unless you cancel your Subscription following the procedure set out on the Site by no later than five (5) days before the end of the relevant period. Beatbox reserves the right to cancel, delete or suspend any Subscription in its own discretion without notice if we have reason to believe that you may have breached this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, when you cancel a Subscription you do not lose the licence to use the Products already downloaded.
Licence for Download and Use of Products. By subscribing to the Service (and subject to your compliance with this Agreement), you are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferrable license to download Products (subject to exchange of Credits) and adapt, modify, copy, perform, distribute and otherwise use those Products along with other sounds and creative materials, solely for and within new recordings and derivative works created by you (your “Creations”). Once you redeem Credits for a Product, you may (subject to the terms listed on the Site from time to time) re-download that Product for as long as your subscription remains valid. Products are for use only as described hereunder and must not be shared with or given or transferred to any third party or uploaded to any file sharing site or offered for resale or public transmission unless mixed into your own Creations as original music productions. Products may not be used in or in relation to any competitive products that are sold or relicensed to multiple third parties. Except as expressly permitted herein, to the fullest extent of applicable law you may not copy, modify, distribute, sell or lease any Product, and you may not reverse engineer or attempt to extract the source code of any content or aspect of the Service.
Pricing. Prices are as set out on the relevant pages of the Site from time to time. Prices (and availability of specific Products) are subject to change by posting new prices or notification of availability at any time. All prices are inclusive of VAT (or sales tax) unless otherwise stated. Please note that use of the Site may be subject to data charges imposed by your internet or phone provider and you will be responsible for payment of any such charges.
Payments. Payments may be by credit or debit card using Visa, MasterCard or PayPal (or other payment methods offered from time to time as detailed on the Service). All transactions are charged immediately. All credit/debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If your card issuer refuses to authorise payment, your order will be cancelled and we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery. We are not responsible for your card issuer or bank charging you as a result of us processing of your credit/debit card payment in accordance with your order nor are we not obliged to inform you of any reason for refusal. By using your credit or debit card, you confirm that the card belongs to your and that there are sufficient funds or credit available to cover the charges. By placing any order hereunder, you warrant and represent that you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts and that you have agreed to be bound by this Agreement. Please note that International payments and certain payment methods may give rise to higher payment processing costs
Refunds. Due to the nature of downloadable products and online services, no refunds are normally available. Any refund request will be considered in our sole discretion and our decision will be final. Nothing herein affects your statutory rights.
Copyright. All rights not expressly granted to User are reserved. The Products are licensed, not sold, to you to be used for (i.e. reproduced within) your original musical compositions and productions only. All copying, lending, duplicating, re-selling or trading of any Product or other Content is strictly prohibited, save as used for or incorporated into your original created works as detailed below. Only the original purchaser of a Product has the right to embody and reproduce that Product within their musical compositions and productions. This license is granted for a single user only (and is given on a worldwide basis). For the avoidance of doubt, no ownership of copyright is transferred by Beatbox to Users hereunder. You agree and acknowledge that Beatbox has a proprietary interest in all sound recordings on or within the Site and that any use by you that frustrates the purpose of this Agreement or circumvents the revenue model of Beatbox (including without limitation selling, renting, or otherwise using or distributing un-integrated Content) would likely cause irreparable loss to Beatbox in a way that could not be adequately compensated by damages.
Performing Rights Organisations. If you are a member of a performing rights organisation (e.g., PRSforMusic, ASCAP, BMI, etc) then (subject to any specific terms on the Site relating to a particular Product) you may register the underlying composition within each of your Creations (embodying Products) without reference to Beatbox or the source of the Product(s). Please note that you shall be solely responsible for compliance with such organisations’ obligations and requirements. If you have entered into a publishing agreement with a music publisher, you should notify such publisher of these terms.
User Content. If, you send to us any content or creative ideas, suggestions, comments, proposals, plans, or other materials (“User Content”) whether online, by email, by post, or otherwise, you agree that we may, at any time, without restriction, edit, copy, publish, distribute, translate and otherwise use in any medium any such User Content. We shall have no obligation to maintain any User Content in confidence or to pay compensation or provide any response.
Liability for User Content. Please do not upload any User Content to the Service unless you have the right to do so. You warrant and represent that you have (and will continue to have during your use of the Service) all necessary licences, rights, consents, and permissions required to enable Beatbox to receive, store and transmit such content for the purposes of the Site and that you personally created or otherwise own or control the necessary rights in such User Content. Any User Content which constitutes or contains content that infringes the copyright of a third party may be removed following any reasonable request by a relevant rightsholder. As part of our copyright policy, we will terminate access to the Service for any User if, in our reasonable opinion, that User is determined to be a repeat infringer (or otherwise has been the subject of more than one valid copyright notice or Take Down request which has not been successfully rebutted).
