Terms of Service

By accessing or using Roylo ("the Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Platform.

The Platform is operated by Roylo ("we", "us", or "our"). These Terms apply to all users of the Platform, including content creators ("Creators"), music artists and rights holders ("Artists"), and administrators.

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. You must provide accurate and complete information during registration.

Each user selects a role during signup: Creator (licenses music for content) or Artist (submits music for licensing). Your role determines the features available to you. Accounts are subject to review and approval before full platform access is granted.

You may not share your account with others or create multiple accounts. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

Roylo facilitates the licensing of music between Artists and Creators. When a Creator licenses a track, they receive a non-exclusive, limited license to use the music in their content according to the license type selected.

Standard License: Grants use on a single platform (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, or other) for an unlimited duration, subject to the terms of the specific license agreement.

Premium License: Grants extended usage rights across multiple platforms with priority support and higher usage thresholds.

Exclusive License: Grants exclusive usage rights. The track will not be available for licensing by other Creators for the duration of the exclusive license.

All licenses are subject to the specific terms displayed during the licensing process. Licenses may be revoked by platform administrators for violations of these Terms or applicable law.

Artists retain all ownership rights to their music. By uploading music to the Platform, Artists grant Roylo the right to distribute and sublicense the music to Creators through the Platform.

If a Creator receives a Content ID claim on content using a properly licensed track, Roylo will assist in resolving the claim by providing license verification. Creators can access their license certificates through the Platform for dispute resolution.

Unauthorized use of music outside the scope of a valid license is a violation of these Terms and may result in account suspension and legal action.

License fees are displayed during the licensing process. All amounts are shown in the applicable currency. Roylo facilitates payment processing between Creators and Artists.

Roylo retains a platform fee from each licensing transaction. The fee percentage is disclosed during the licensing process. Artist earnings are paid out according to the payout schedule specified in the Artist's distribution agreement.

All payments are final. Refunds may be issued at Roylo's discretion in cases of technical error or license revocation by the Platform.

The Roylo platform, including its design, code, and branding, is the intellectual property of Roylo. You may not copy, modify, or distribute any part of the Platform without express written permission.

Artists represent and warrant that they own or have the necessary rights to all music uploaded to the Platform. Artists indemnify Roylo against any claims arising from copyright infringement related to their uploaded content.

You agree not to:

• Upload music you do not have the rights to distribute
• Use licensed music outside the scope of your license agreement
• Attempt to circumvent platform security or access controls
• Create automated or bot-driven accounts
• Engage in fraudulent transactions or misrepresent license usage
• Harass, threaten, or abuse other users of the Platform
• Use the Platform for any unlawful purpose

Disputes between users should first be reported to Roylo support. We will make reasonable efforts to mediate disputes related to licensing, payments, or copyright claims.

If a dispute cannot be resolved through mediation, it shall be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with applicable law. Class action lawsuits and class arbitrations are not permitted under these Terms.

The Platform is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. Roylo does not guarantee uninterrupted access to the Platform or that the Platform will be free of errors.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Roylo shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, or business interruption, arising from your use of the Platform.

Roylo's total liability for any claims arising from these Terms or your use of the Platform shall not exceed the amounts paid by you to Roylo in the 12 months preceding the claim.

You may delete your account at any time through your account settings. Roylo may suspend or terminate your account for violations of these Terms with or without notice.

Upon termination, your right to use the Platform ceases immediately. Active licenses granted prior to termination remain valid for their specified duration unless revoked for cause.

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify users of material changes via email or through the Platform. Continued use of the Platform after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
