1.4 Language

In the event of any discrepancy between the German and English versions of these Terms, the English version shall prevail.

§2 Definitions

The following definitions shall apply within the scope of this Agreement:

§3 Formation of Contract

3.1 Offer and Acceptance

The presentation of products and services on the ARTYFILE website does not constitute a legally binding offer, but rather an invitation to make an offer (invitatio ad offerendum).

By placing an order for a product or service, the Customer submits a binding purchase offer. The contract is concluded when ARTYFILE accepts the order by sending an order confirmation via email or by providing the service.

3.2 Customer Account

The creation of a customer account is required to use certain services. The Customer is obligated to:

  • Provide truthful and complete information
  • Keep their access credentials confidential
  • Notify ARTYFILE immediately of any unauthorised use of their account
  • Keep their profile up to date

3.3 Contract Language and Storage

The contract languages are German and English. The contract text will be stored after contract formation and made available to the Customer via email. Access is also available through the customer account on the website.

§4 License Types & Service Description

4.1 ARTYFILE Basic

Price: from €29.90 (plus VAT where applicable)

ARTYFILE Basic is a non-exclusive, non-transferable standalone licence that includes the following rights:

  • Synchronisation Rights: Worldwide, perpetual sync rights for use in audiovisual projects
  • No Subscription Required: One-time purchase with no recurring fees
  • High-Quality Audio: Download in WAV format (44.1 kHz, 24 Bit)
  • Instant Download: Available immediately upon purchase completion
  • Commercial Use: Permitted for private and commercial projects

Not included with ARTYFILE Basic:

  • Ownership shares in master rights
  • Participation in streaming revenue
  • Participation in third-party sync revenue

4.2 ARTYFILE Limited Edition

Price: from €69.90 per 1% share (plus VAT where applicable)

ARTYFILE Limited Edition includes all rights of ARTYFILE Basic plus the following:

  • Ownership Shares: Acquisition of shares in the master rights of the Recording. Upon purchase, the share is entered in ARTYFILE's ownership register under the Customer's email address and documented by a personal ownership certificate (PDF)
  • 1 Unit = 1% Ownership Share: Shares are acquired in units of 1% of the master rights; each unit is a numbered entry in the ownership register
  • Limited Edition: A maximum of 20 shares are offered per Recording; once all shares of a Recording are allocated, its edition is closed
  • Streaming Revenue: Pro-rata participation in worldwide streaming revenue (Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Deezer, etc.)
  • Sync Revenue: Pro-rata participation in synchronisation revenue when the Recording is licensed to third parties
  • Transferability: The share can be sold, gifted, transferred or bequeathed at any time; ARTYFILE carries out the transfer in the ownership register (§7.3)

Notice: No blockchain, crypto wallet or cryptocurrency is involved in the acquisition, holding or transfer of an ARTYFILE Limited Edition. The ownership register kept by ARTYFILE, together with the ownership certificate, constitutes the record of ownership. Revenue participation depends on actual usage of the Recording, is not guaranteed and may be zero (§7.4, §7.5).

4.2a Cover Editions (Recordings of Third-Party Compositions)

Individual Recordings in the ARTYFILE catalogue are cover versions of musical works whose composition rights are held by third parties (the original writers and their publishers). These Recordings are marked as “Cover Edition” on the product page and are offered exclusively as ARTYFILE Limited Edition; ARTYFILE Basic is not available for them.

  • No Synchronisation Licence: For Cover Editions, ARTYFILE does not grant synchronisation or any other usage rights in the underlying composition; such rights remain with the original rights holders. Deviating from §4.2, the Limited Edition of a Cover Edition does not include the rights of ARTYFILE Basic. The WAV download included with a Cover Edition is provided for personal listening only and does not include any right to use the Recording in audiovisual or other media projects.
  • Scope of the Share: The ownership share relates exclusively to the master rights in ARTYFILE's own sound recording, not to the underlying composition. Revenue participation covers the streaming revenue attributable to the master of the Recording; remuneration owed to the composition's rights holders (e.g. mechanical royalties) is deducted before distribution.
  • No Third-Party Sync Participation: As ARTYFILE does not license Cover Editions for synchronisation, no synchronisation revenue arises for these Recordings.

4.3 Payment in Traditional Currencies

All ARTYFILE products can be purchased in traditional currencies (EUR, USD, GBP). Cryptocurrencies are not required for purchase.

§5 ARTYFILE Stream

5.1 Service Description

ARTYFILE Stream is a B2C streaming service for premium music in uncompressed WAV quality (High-Fidelity Audio).

Subscription Price: €19.90 per month

Subscription Sign-up: Exclusively via the ARTYFILE website (not through app stores)

5.2 Scope of Service

  • WAV Streaming: Uncompromised playback quality at 44.1 kHz
  • Curated Collections: Thematically organised music collections
  • Listen-to-Own: Direct integration with ARTYFILE Limited Editions for acquisition of ownership shares
  • Mobile App: Available for iOS (Apple App Store) and Android (Google Play Store)

5.3 Fair Use Cap

To ensure fair operation, the following usage limitation applies:

  • Limit: Maximum of 500 streams per month per user
  • Top-Up Option: After reaching the limit, additional streams can be purchased (e.g., 100 streams for €4.99)

5.4 Patronage System (Remuneration Model)

ARTYFILE Stream uses a user-centric remuneration model:

  • €4.00 of the subscription covers platform costs (servers, development, marketing)
  • €12.00 is allocated to the Artist Pool for stream remuneration
  • Minimum of €0.03 per stream (€0.02 master rights + €0.01 PRO/publisher)
  • With lower usage, artists benefit from higher per-stream payments (patronage effect)

5.5 Cancellation of ARTYFILE Stream

The subscription may be cancelled at any time effective at the end of the current billing period. Cancellation can be made through the customer account at artyfile.com/account.php.

§6 Music Distribution for Artists (ARTYFILE for Artists)

6.1 Service Description

ARTYFILE for Artists offers artists and labels a fair, pay-once music distribution service ("Fair Deal") with transparent revenue sharing and rights management. Notice: No blockchain, crypto wallet or cryptocurrency is involved in this service.

One-time fee: €9.90 per track (Single) or €39 for an album of up to 10 tracks. No subscriptions, no annual renewals, no upgrade fees.

Commission: ARTYFILE receives a flat 15% of the revenue it generates for the artist (streaming payouts through channels delivered by ARTYFILE, sync licences, Fan Limited Edition sales); the artist receives 85% of such revenue. No further fees apply. Songwriting and publishing revenue is never touched.

6.2 Scope of Service

  • Channel Choice: Per release, the artist selects ARTYFILE Stream, the ARTYFILE sync marketplace, and/or worldwide distribution to 150+ streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Deezer, etc.)
  • Sync Licensing: Extended exploitation through sync licences for film, advertising, games and social media
  • Fan Limited Editions (optional): Upon the artist's express activation, up to 20 numbered ownership shares of 1% each of a track's master rights may be offered to customers in accordance with §7; the artist receives 85% of the proceeds of each share sale. Fan Limited Editions are inactive by default.
  • No Advance Recoupment: No hidden fees or advance repayments

6.3 Requirements for Artists

  • Submission of a high-quality recording (MP3 for review, WAV for release)
  • Artist biography and contact information
  • Active website and Instagram presence
  • Proof of ownership of the recording

6.4 A&R Review

ARTYFILE reserves the right to review submitted music and to reject submissions. Selection is based on criteria of quality and originality.

6.5 Rights Retention

Artists retain 100% ownership of their master rights and full control over master and publishing rights. Ownership is non-exclusive; only the streaming distribution of an active track runs exclusively through ARTYFILE for as long as the track remains active with ARTYFILE. Where Fan Limited Edition shares of a track have been sold, the sold shares (no more than 20% of the master) are held by their acquirers in accordance with §7; the artist always retains at least 80% and all creative and business decisions.

Transitional note: Distribution agreements concluded under the earlier tier model (Launch/Ownership/Album) remain valid. NFT-based ownership shares issued under that model remain valid and are fully mirrored in the ownership register (§7), which is authoritative.

§7 Ownership Register & Custody

7.1 The Ownership Register

  • Register: ARTYFILE keeps a central ownership register recording, for each Recording, the holders of all Limited Edition ownership shares, the number of each share and the date of acquisition
  • Numbered Shares: Each 1% share carries a fixed share number within its Recording's edition (maximum 20 shares per Recording)
  • Custody: Shares are held and administered by ARTYFILE for the Customer; no action by the Customer is required to maintain the entry

7.2 Registration & Certificate

  • Registration: Upon purchase completion, the ownership share is immediately entered in the ownership register under the Customer's email address
  • Certificate: The Customer receives a personal ownership certificate (PDF) stating the Recording, the share size and the share number; the certificate can be re-downloaded in the customer account at any time
  • Proof of Ownership: The ownership register together with the ownership certificate constitutes the authoritative record of ownership

Transitional note: Ownership shares that were additionally recorded on a blockchain under earlier versions of these Terms remain valid and are fully mirrored in the ownership register, which is authoritative.

7.3 Transfer, Gift & Inheritance

Ownership shares may be sold, gifted, transferred or bequeathed at any time. The transfer is carried out by ARTYFILE support upon request of the registered holder (or, in the case of inheritance, upon appropriate proof) and recorded in the ownership register. Upon transfer, all rights associated with the ownership share (revenue participation, licence rights) pass to the new owner. There is no public secondary market operated by ARTYFILE; resale value and speed are not guaranteed.

7.4 Risks

The Customer acknowledges the following risks:

  • Revenue Risk: Revenue participation depends entirely on actual usage of the Recording; royalties are not guaranteed and may be zero
  • Market Risk: The value of ownership shares may fluctuate; a resale price is not guaranteed
  • Liquidity Risk: There is no public secondary market; a buyer may not be found at the desired time or price

7.5 No Investment Advice

The acquisition of Limited Edition ownership shares does not constitute investment advice. ARTYFILE makes no representations regarding future value appreciation or future revenue.

§8 Usage Rights & License Scope

8.1 Permitted Uses

Unless otherwise stated in the product description (e.g., for restricted rights or share acquisition only), the ARTYFILE Basic or Limited Edition licence grants the right to use the Recording as follows:

Digital Media:

  • YouTube videos and channels
  • Social media (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.)
  • Websites and online streaming
  • Podcasts and audio content
  • Vlogs and personal videos
  • Presentations and slideshows

Professional Productions:

  • Advertising films and commercials

8.2 Territory and Duration

  • Territory: Worldwide
  • Duration: Perpetual (in perpetuity)
  • Media: All known and future media formats

8.3 Use for Client Projects

The licence permits use of the Recording in an unlimited number of the licensee's own projects and in projects produced for clients or employers, worldwide and in perpetuity. A single ARTYFILE Basic licence is not limited to one project. The licence is held by, and remains with, the licensee (for example the agency, freelancer or employee), who remains responsible for compliance with these Terms. The Recording may be used within the deliverable produced for the client, but the licence itself is non-transferable and may not be sold, sublicensed, shared or assigned to the client or any third party (see §9.1). A client wishing to use the Recording independently of that deliverable requires a separate licence.

8.4 Cue Sheets for TV and Radio

For broadcasts on TV and radio, cue sheets must be submitted to the relevant collecting societies. ARTYFILE will provide all required information upon request.

8.5 Exclusive Licence & Buyout (on request)

For flagship or brand-critical use, an exclusive licence or a full buyout of an individual Recording may be available on request, subject to a separate individual agreement and quotation (see §14 for the equivalent process applied to Custom Music). Depending on what is agreed, an exclusive licence or buyout may include withdrawal of the Recording from further licensing to third parties and/or transfer of the master rights, as specified in that individual agreement. Standard ARTYFILE Basic and Limited Edition licences are non-exclusive (see §13.3).

§9 Usage Restrictions

9.1 Prohibited Uses

The licensed Recordings and granted rights may not be:

  • Sold, transferred, sublicensed, shared or assigned (except through transfer of the Limited Edition ownership share via ARTYFILE, §7.3)
  • Made available as a standalone audio file for download
  • Incorporated into competing music libraries or stock music platforms, AI platforms
  • Distributed as part of a music compilation or library
  • Presented as one's own work or composition
  • Modified in a manner that violates artistic integrity

9.2 Content ID Prohibition

Important: The Recordings may not be registered or claimed in content recognition systems (e.g., YouTube Content ID, Facebook Rights Manager). ARTYFILE retains the exclusive right to Content ID registration.

9.3 Public Performance Rights

The licences do not include public performance rights (performing rights). For live performances, public playback in venues, hotels, shops, etc., separate agreements with the relevant collecting societies (e.g., GEMA, AKM, SUISA, PRS, ASCAP, BMI) are required.

9.4 Prohibited Content

Use in projects containing the following content is prohibited:

  • Pornographic or sexually explicit content
  • Content that incites hatred, violence or discrimination
  • Illegal activities
  • Political campaign advertising without prior written consent

9.5 Special Provisions for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Data Mining

To protect the artistic integrity and economic interests of the participating creators and performers (such as the London Symphony Orchestra or Abbey Road Studios), the following additional restrictions apply to the use of the Recordings in connection with artificial intelligence:

  • Prohibition of AI Training (Machine Learning): It is expressly prohibited to use the licensed Recordings—or parts thereof—as training data for the development, optimisation or operation of artificial intelligence algorithms, particularly generative AI models for the creation of music, voices or sounds.
  • Exclusion of Text and Data Mining (TDM): ARTYFILE expressly reserves all rights to the use of the content for text and data mining pursuant to Art. 4(3) of Directive (EU) 2019/790 (DSM Directive). Use of the Recordings for automated analyses for the purpose of extracting information about patterns, trends or correlations is prohibited without a separate written agreement.
  • Prohibition of AI-Generated Derivative Works (Sound-Alikes): The creation of works that emulate the specific sound, instrumentation or characteristic features of a Recording through AI-based emulation ("sound-alikes") is prohibited where this serves to substitute the original Recording or replicate the identity of the artists (e.g., voice cloning).
  • Protection of Technical Metadata: It is prohibited to remove or alter technical identifiers, metadata or digital watermarks that serve to identify the Recording as a human work or to ensure rights attribution.

Legal Notice: Violations of these provisions constitute a material breach of contract and may result in immediate revocation of the usage licence as well as claims for damages.

§10 YouTube Content ID & Monetisation

10.1 ARTYFILE's Monetisation Model

ARTYFILE pursues an innovative approach to YouTube monetisation that differs from the traditional model:

With ARTYFILE Basic:

  • Copyright Status: Fully cleared – no strikes or takedowns
  • Direct Channel Monetisation: Disabled. Advertising revenue is claimed by ARTYFILE via Content ID
  • Revenue Sharing: None – the user receives usage rights but no advertising revenue

With ARTYFILE Limited Edition:

  • Copyright Status: Fully cleared – no strikes or takedowns
  • Direct Channel Monetisation: Disabled on the user's channel
  • Global Revenue Pool: The user earns passively through the ARTYFILE YouTube Monetisation Pool, which distributes worldwide Content ID revenue for the respective track to all Limited Edition holders

10.2 Benefits of the Model

Instead of benefiting from only a single video, Limited Edition holders receive a share of all videos worldwide that use the same track. This transforms a simple music licence into a dynamic, revenue-generating asset.

10.3 Content ID Claims

Videos using ARTYFILE music may receive Content ID claims. These are not strikes and do not affect the status of the YouTube channel. The claim simply means that advertising revenue flows to ARTYFILE and the rights holders.

§11 Collecting Societies & PROs

11.1 Registration

ARTYFILE music is registered worldwide with GEMA and all other relevant collecting societies (for worldwide monitoring of public performances).

11.2 Rights Administration

  • Sync Rights and Master Rights: Administered directly by ARTYFILE, independent of GEMA
  • Performing Rights: Administered through GEMA or the relevant local collecting society

11.3 PRO-Free Usage

For the types of use included in the licence scope (sync in videos, online streaming, etc.), no separate PRO/GEMA fees are payable. The sync rights are covered by the licence acquisition.

Public performance rights (e.g., background music in shops, hotels, restaurants) are excluded from this and are subject to standard PRO/GEMA tariffs.

11.4 Professional Composers

The composers of ARTYFILE music are deliberate members of GEMA and other collecting societies. ARTYFILE's ownership register and licence certificates guarantee transparent, documented rights management.

§12 Payouts & Remuneration

12.1 Payout Period

Revenue from streaming income and sync licences is paid out quarterly.

12.2 Minimum Payout Threshold

Minimum Payout: €50 / $50

Amounts below the minimum threshold are carried forward to the next payout period.

12.3 Statement Details
