5. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with:
- Service providers that host, deliver and support the Platform: distribution and royalty-processing technology, cloud hosting, payment providers (PayPal, banks), email and messaging, customer support, and professional advisors (legal, accounting).
- Distribution partners and platforms (streaming services, stores, content-identification and rights organizations) to the extent needed to deliver and monetize your content, including credits and metadata that become public.
- Collaborators on a release you share (for example, co-writers seeing their own splits).
- Legal and safety: to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights, or investigate fraud and claims.
- Business transfers: in a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, subject to this policy. Release credits and metadata you submit are published by platforms and cannot be fully withdrawn once public.
6. International transfers
We are based in the United States and our providers may process data in the U.S. and elsewhere. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
7. Retention
We keep information as long as needed to provide the services, meet tax, accounting and legal requirements, resolve disputes and enforce agreements (for example, acceptance records and financial records are kept for the life of the relationship plus the period the law or limitation periods require). We then delete or anonymize it.
8. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards, including access controls and encryption in transit. Sensitive tax and payment information is restricted to personnel who need it. No system is perfectly secure; please use a strong, unique password and tell us promptly of any suspected unauthorized access.
