Terms & Conditions
Effective date: January 30, 2026
1. Who we are
These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) are between you and Peotech Group, Eagle Trace Estate, Fourways, 2191 (“Albumdrop”, “we”, “us”). By using the Albumdrop platform and publishing releases, you agree to these Terms.
2. The service
Albumdrop provides tools for artists to create album landing pages, collect supporter contributions, and deliver thank-you downloads. We are not a record label, distributor, or store.
3. Your content
You retain ownership of your music, artwork, and branding. You grant Albumdrop a limited, non-exclusive license to host, display, and distribute your content solely to operate the service and provide your landing pages and downloads.
You confirm that you have all rights to upload and distribute the content you publish.
4. Prohibited content
You may not publish content that is unlawful, infringing, deceptive, or harmful. We may remove content or suspend accounts that violate these Terms or applicable law.
5. Payments & fees
Platform fees, gateway fees, and taxes may apply depending on your plan and chosen payment gateway. Paid plans allow you to connect your own gateway; free plans use the platform gateway with weekly payouts.
You are responsible for all taxes and reporting obligations related to your earnings.
6. Payouts
For platform-gateway artists, payouts are processed weekly once you meet the minimum payout threshold and have verified payout details on file. Artists using a connected gateway receive funds directly through their gateway, outside the platform payout system.
7. Refunds & chargebacks
Albumdrop does not provide refunds. Refunds, disputes, and chargebacks are the responsibility of the artist and are subject to the policies of the payment provider.
8. Availability & changes
We may change or suspend features to improve the service or comply with legal requirements. We will make reasonable efforts to keep the service available but do not guarantee uninterrupted access.
9. Disclaimer
The platform is provided “as is” and “as available”. We make no warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Albumdrop is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the fees paid to us in the three months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
11. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold Albumdrop harmless from claims arising out of your content, your use of the service, or your breach of these Terms.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of South Africa. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of South Africa for any dispute arising from these Terms or the service.
