GOOD TO KNOW
Safety and privacy
A track is not automatically licensed
A download provides a non-exclusive perpetual synchronisation licence while Beatoven retains ownership. Tracks cannot normally be resold, registered in Content ID or released by themselves on Spotify or Apple Music.
Protect private material
Prompts, lyrics, reference audio and vocals can contain personal data or protected work. Upload only material you may use.
Keep human control
Approve the final track, licence, credits and distribution route before publishing.
