Article 3. Description of the services

The paying services offered by the Beatmaker consist essentially of the sale of beats and licences allowing the exploitation of these beats in the context of a commercial project, i.e. a lucrative project aiming to generate income in any way whatsoever.

The Beatmaker can offer other paid services related to beatmaking, such as: learning tutorials, sample packs, training, mixing and mastering services, etc.

The Beatmaker also offers the possibility of ordering an exclusive customised beat. An order in this sense will give rise to a specific contract regulating the collaboration between the User and the Beatmaker. This contract is subject to change.

The Beatmaker offers several subscription formulas to members who wish to do so, allowing them to benefit from a series of advantages and discounts throughout the duration of the subscription. The three possible subscription packages are the "Silver" subscription, the "Gold" subscription and the "Diamond" subscription. Details of the options and current prices are available at

https://www.luanmusic.com/en/pages/subscriptions.html

The User who decides to subscribe to one of the three options commits to a one-year subscription. Any refund or carry-over to the following year is excluded. In the event of temporary or permanent closure of the site or of the paying services offered, the User will not be entitled to a refund.

The User may purchase a beat in different formats, including track stems. However, the User undertakes to respect the general appearance of the beat by not making any changes that would lead to the belief that the User or a third party has produced the beat.

The Beatmaker always remains the sole owner of the beat, regardless of the format and/or licence purchased by the User.

Article 4. Commercial License

For each beat, it is possible to purchase a Commercial License in case the User wishes to use it for profit. The acquisition of the license is mandatory in this case.

The proposed Commercial License is a non-exclusive license. This means that the User has the right to exploit the beat for a commercial project, without having the exclusivity of this beat. In other words, other users can also buy the same commercial license to exploit the same beat which remains available online. The Beatmaker always remains the sole owner of the beat.

The Commercial License authorizes the User to exploit the beat without any limitations in use or time.

When the User buys a commercial licence for a beat, he/she will receive within 5 working days a contract in his/her name and in the name of the Beatmaker, attesting to the commercial authorisation of the beat for which the licence has been bought. The licence becomes effective as soon as the User sends the signed contract to the Beatmaker, who will have signed it beforehand. The contract cannot be modified.

The user always credits the Beatmaker in all projects where the beats are used. In addition, the user must declare the Beatmaker as a composer in the declaration of the project for which the beat was used to the copyright society with which the user is affiliated.

The Commercial Licence contract strictly includes all the terms of the present GTC.
