Terms of Service

Last updated: July 17, 2026

1. Who we are

Atmoswave Distribution ("Atmoswave", "we", "us") is a music distribution service operated by Atmoswave Music Group LLC, a Delaware (US) limited liability company (File No. 2976326), registered at 254 Chapman Rd, Ste 208 #16204, Newark, Delaware 19702, United States. You can reach us at support@atmoswavemusic.com. By creating an account or using the service you agree to these Terms.

2. The service

Atmoswave delivers your sound recordings, artwork and metadata ("Content") to digital music stores and streaming services ("Stores"), collects the revenue those Stores report for your Content, and pays it to you according to your plan. Delivery may be performed through third-party distribution partners acting on our behalf. We also provide related tools such as release management, analytics, smart links and pre-saves.

3. Accounts

You must be at least 18 years old, or have the consent of a parent or legal guardian, to use the service. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information in your account, for keeping your credentials secure, and for all activity under your account. We may refuse, suspend or close accounts that violate these Terms.

4. Your rights and our licence

You keep full ownership of your Content, including your master recordings and compositions. You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide licence to reproduce, convert, distribute, publicly make available and otherwise exploit the Content solely as necessary to deliver it to the Stores you authorise, operate the service, and promote your releases (for example on smart link pages). This licence lasts while the Content is distributed through us and ends when it is taken down, except where Stores retain copies under their own terms.

5. Your promises to us

You represent and warrant that: you own or control all rights in the Content you upload, including all samples, features and remixes; the Content does not infringe any third party's rights or any law; the metadata you provide (including artist names, writers and splits) is accurate; and you will not upload content designed to impersonate another artist. You will indemnify us against claims arising from a breach of these promises.

6. Plans, fees and royalties

On the Free plan we retain a commission of 10% of the royalties reported by Stores for your Content; you receive 90%. On paid plans (Plus, Pro) we retain 0% commission and you pay the subscription fee shown at purchase. Subscriptions are billed monthly through our payment processor, Stripe, and renew automatically until cancelled; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, after which the Free plan terms apply to future royalties. We may change plan pricing with at least 30 days' notice.

7. Payouts and statements

Royalty statements are based on the reports we receive from Stores and our distribution partners; Stores report on their own schedules, typically one to three months in arrears. You can request a payout using the payout methods offered in your account settings once your balance reaches the minimum payout threshold shown there. You are responsible for any taxes applicable to your income from the service.

8. Takedowns

You may request removal of your Content from Stores at any time from your account or by contacting us; Stores process takedowns on their own schedules. We may remove Content and withhold related royalties where we reasonably believe it infringes rights, is subject to a credible complaint, is involved in streaming manipulation, or violates Store rules. Rights holders can send infringement notices to support@atmoswavemusic.com.

9. Streaming manipulation

Artificial streaming — including bots, click farms, paid streaming schemes or any service that promises guaranteed streams — is prohibited. Stores penalise it aggressively. If we or a Store detect manipulation we may withhold affected royalties, remove the Content and terminate the account.

10. Third parties

Delivery, payment and data services are provided with the help of third parties (including our distribution partner, Stripe for payments and our infrastructure providers). Stores display your Content under their own terms, which we do not control.

11. Termination

You may stop using the service and request takedown of your Content at any time. We may terminate or suspend the service for breach of these Terms, unlawful activity, or where a Store or partner requires it. Accrued, unwithheld royalties remain payable to you after termination.

12. Disclaimers and liability

The service is provided "as is". We do not guarantee that Stores will accept, display or monetise any particular release, or any level of revenue. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability arising from the service is limited to the amounts we retained from your account in the twelve months before the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, and disputes are subject to the state and federal courts located in Delaware, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protections of your country of residence.

14. Changes

We may update these Terms; material changes will be announced by email or in the portal at least 14 days before they take effect. Continuing to use the service after that date means you accept the updated Terms.
