Governing law: NetherlandsBy creating an account or uploading content, you (“you”, “Client”) agree to these Terms.1) What we do (digital only)We provide digital music distribution to streaming/download platforms (“DSPs”) and related services (including social music libraries) and we provide reporting via your CURVE portal.Vinyl/physical distribution is not included under these Terms.
We don’t guarantee DSP acceptance, release dates, availability, playlists, charting, or minimum revenue.2) Your responsibilitiesYou must have all rights/permissions for anything you upload (audio, artwork, metadata, samples, featured artists, remixes). Metadata must be accurate and not misleading. You are responsible for paying any collaborators you owe.3) Restricted content (DJ mixes / bootlegs / remixes)DJ mixes, bootlegs, and remixes are allowed only with prior approval from SCMdistro (email us).If you upload restricted content without approval or without proper rights, we may refuse delivery, request takedown, suspend your account, and/or withhold or claim revenue connected to that content to cover disputes, chargebacks, and related costs.4) Rights you grant usYou keep ownership of your content. You appoint us as a non-exclusive agent to deliver your releases and request DSPs/platforms to monetize them. You grant us and our partners the rights needed to distribute, display, and monetize your content digitally during the term of these Terms.5) Fees and deductions€5 per track, capped at €20 per EP/album Release
5% distribution fee on Net Receipts
The €5/track (or €20 cap) is deducted from your balance (recouped), so no upfront payment is required. If deductions exceed available earnings, your balance may be negative until future earnings arrive.
“Net Receipts” means what we receive from DSPs after platform fees/commissions, refunds/chargebacks, taxes withheld by platforms, and currency conversion/transaction costs taken by platforms.
DSPs may send late corrections or fraud/chargeback adjustments; these will be applied to your balance when received.6) Reporting and payouts (CURVE portal)You receive access to your CURVE portal where statements are displayed:
Default: every 3 months (quarterly)
Options: monthly or half-yearly (where available)
Payout methods: bank transfer or PayPal.Minimum payout threshold: €50 (balances below €50 roll over to the next period).Payment processing fees (if any) may be deducted from your payout.7) YouTube / Content ID and social deliveryWe offer delivery to YouTube and social music services and may provide Content ID/monetization where supported. Platforms can reject content or monetization; we don’t guarantee approval or earnings. You must not enable Content ID/monetization for content you don’t fully control (e.g., uncleared samples/remixes).8) Takedowns and terminationYou may request takedowns by emailing [email protected]. We will submit takedown requests within a reasonable time, but DSP removal timing varies. We may suspend/terminate accounts for breach, rights violations, or fraud. Platforms may continue reporting late revenue/adjustments after takedown.
9) Liability and indemnityYou agree to indemnify SCMdistro against claims arising from your content, including infringement or policy violations. To the maximum extent permitted by Dutch law, we’re not liable for indirect or consequential damages. Our total liability is limited to the distribution fees we earned from your content in the prior 12 months, unless mandatory law requires otherwise.10) Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms by posting an updated version on scmdistro.com. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms.11) Governing law
These Terms are governed by Dutch law. Disputes will be handled by the competent court in Utrecht, unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
