Terms of Service

[ARCHIVE] ("we," "us," or "our") is a music ecosystem built for independent artists, producers, curators, DJs, and music industry professionals. [ARCHIVE] provides tools for artist discovery, collaboration matching, playlist pitching, digital product sales, AI-powered production tools, label management, community engagement, and more.

Users may upload or share content including music files, audio previews, cover artwork, profile images, posts, and messages ("User Content").

[ARCHIVE]'s Discover feature uses profile data — including genre, location, age, and Discord roles — to surface relevant artist profiles to other users for collaboration and networking. By filling out your Discover profile, you consent to your information being shown to other registered users on the platform. You can control what information appears by editing your profile at any time. [ARCHIVE] does not guarantee collaboration outcomes, responses, or any specific results from using the Discover feature.

[ARCHIVE] facilitates playlist pitching between artists and curators. Curators are independent users — not employees or agents of [ARCHIVE]. We do not guarantee placement, response times, or outcomes from any submission. Artists agree not to spam curators with repeated or unsolicited pitches. Curators agree to engage with submissions in good faith and may decline any submission without providing a reason. Abuse of the pitching system — including harassment of curators — may result in account suspension.

[ARCHIVE] allows artists to list and sell digital products (drum kits, sample packs, project files, etc.) directly to buyers.

[ARCHIVE] takes no ownership of products sold and is not liable for disputes between buyers and sellers. Payments are processed via Stripe. All sales are final unless otherwise stated. [ARCHIVE] reserves the right to remove listings that violate these Terms or our Community Guidelines.
