Terms of Service

By accessing or using AIMixtapes (http://localhost:3000) and any related applications or services (collectively, the "Service") provided by AIMixtapes ("we," "us," or "our"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to all of these Terms, do not access or use the Service.

1. Service Overview

AIMixtapes helps you discover, curate, and share playlists across music and podcast platforms. Core capabilities include building and editing playlists, exporting them to supported streaming providers, scheduling syncs, analysing listening habits, and creating digital "mixtape" gifts that can contain written dedications and optional voice messages. We may describe portions of the Service as "beta" or "preview" while they continue to evolve. The Service provides playlist metadata only; we do not host or distribute audio files for playback.

• Create, organise, and edit playlists using manual tools or AI-assisted suggestions.
• Export playlists to third-party services (for example, Spotify or Apple Music) once you connect your account.
• Generate shareable gift experiences that can be delivered instantly, by scheduled email, or via private link.
• Manage a profile, interact with community features, and view content made public by other users.

Availability of specific features may vary by region, subscription plan, device, or ongoing experiments. We may discontinue or modify any feature at any time in our sole discretion.

2. Accounts and Eligibility

You must create an account to use most functionality. You represent that you are at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your jurisdiction) and, if you are under the age of majority, that you have parental or guardian permission to use the Service.

• Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and keep it updated.
• Maintain the security of your password and account credentials and promptly notify us of any unauthorised use.
• Do not share your account with others or create multiple accounts to circumvent limits.
• We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts for violation of these Terms or for suspected fraudulent activity.

3. Credits, Subscriptions, and Payments

Certain features require paid credits, memberships, or other digital entitlements. Payments are processed through our third-party provider, Stripe. By making a purchase you authorise Stripe to charge your selected payment method and agree to its terms and conditions.

• Credits: Credits are digital tokens that can be spent on features such as extending playlists, unlocking edits on locked mixes, triggering export syncs, enabling DJ voiceovers, or creating gifts. We may change how many credits a feature consumes with notice in the product or in documentation.
• Memberships: Subscription plans supply a recurring allotment of credits and may unlock additional benefits such as public export limits or bundled gift entitlements. Memberships renew automatically until cancelled via your account settings or Stripe customer portal.
• Gift purchases: Some gifts can be purchased directly (for example, via a Stripe Checkout session) or by redeeming credits. Gifts are delivered electronically and may include optional scheduled notifications to recipients.
• Taxes and billing: You are responsible for any applicable taxes, exchange fees, or bank charges. Where required, taxes will be calculated and presented at checkout.

Credits and gift entitlements have no cash value, are non-transferable, and cannot be resold. Except as required by law or outlined in our Refund Policy, all sales are final. We may correct billing errors by issuing a charge or credit.

4. Gifting Program

The Service allows you to craft digital gifts that include playlists, written messages, artwork, and optional voice recordings. Gifts are delivered via shareable links and may also be emailed or scheduled for later delivery. When a recipient claims a gift, we create a playlist or experience inside their account (or on a share page) using the materials you provided.

• You must have all necessary rights and consent to submit recipient information (such as names or email addresses).
• We use third-party providers (for example, Firebase Storage and Resend) to store voice clips and send notifications. Delivery times are not guaranteed, and email deliverability depends on the recipient's inbox provider.
• Gifts typically remain accessible for at least 30 days from creation or delivery. We may archive or delete unclaimed gifts after that window to manage storage and security.
• You are solely responsible for the content of messages, audio, artwork, and any data you include in a gift, and for ensuring that sharing such content complies with applicable laws.
• Digital gifts are intangible goods; no physical shipments are provided.

5. User Content and Conduct

You are responsible for all content you submit or make available through the Service, including prompts, playlist titles, annotations, cover artwork, avatars, comments, gift messages, voice recordings, and any other materials ("User Content").

• You represent and warrant that you own or have the necessary rights to submit your User Content and that it does not violate any third-party rights (including intellectual property, publicity, or privacy rights) or any applicable laws.
• Do not post or transmit content that is illegal, hateful, defamatory, obscene, or that promotes self-harm or violence.
• Do not upload malware, spyware, or other harmful code, or attempt to interfere with the Service's security or operation.
• Respect the privacy of others. Do not share personal data about others unless you have their permission and a lawful basis to do so.
• You grant AIMixtapes a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable licence to use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, perform, and otherwise process your User Content as necessary to operate, improve, and promote the Service. This includes hosting content, generating previews, exporting playlists, sending emails on your behalf, moderating submissions, and analysing usage trends.

We may remove or disable access to any User Content that we believe violates these Terms or applicable law, or for any other reason at our discretion.

6. Intellectual Property

The Service (excluding User Content) and all associated intellectual property rights are and will remain the exclusive property of AIMixtapes and its licensors. All trademarks, logos, and trade dress may not be used without our prior written consent. Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes.

7. Third-Party Services and Integrations

The Service relies on integrations with third parties such as Spotify, Apple Music, Google, Firebase, OpenAI, Resend, and other analytics or content providers. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices.

• When you connect a streaming provider, you authorise us to create and modify playlists, add or remove tracks, and update playlist metadata on your behalf. You can revoke access at any time from your settings or through the provider.
• Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms. It is your responsibility to review and comply with those agreements.
• AI-generated suggestions may reference or link to third-party content. Verify the accuracy and suitability of any generated output before relying on it.

8. Beta Features and AI Output

Features labelled as beta, preview, or experimental (including certain AI playlist generation or DJ voice experiences) are offered on an "AS IS" basis without commitment to continued availability. AI output may be inaccurate, incomplete, offensive, or inappropriate for your intended use. You are responsible for reviewing results, making final selections, and complying with all laws when publishing or sharing generated material.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of those rights.

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved by binding arbitration in Nashville, Tennessee, under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment on an arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Each party waives the right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action.
