1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using MusiciansXchange ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service. We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, you will be required to review and agree to the updated Terms before continuing to use the Service.

2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. By creating an account, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and that all registration information you provide is truthful and accurate.

3. Your Account
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to provide accurate and complete information when creating your account, including your real name, mailing address, and phone number. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

4. Content Ownership & Licensing
You retain full ownership of all content you upload to the Service, including audio files, stems, mixes, and any other creative works ("Your Content"). By uploading Your Content, you grant MusiciansXchange a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, transmit, and display Your Content solely for the purpose of operating and providing the Service. This license terminates when you delete Your Content from the Service.

MusiciansXchange does not claim ownership of Your Content and will never sell, sublicense, or commercially exploit Your Content without your explicit written consent.

5. Copyright & Intellectual Property
You represent and warrant that you have the right to upload all content you share on the Service and that Your Content does not infringe on the intellectual property rights of any third party. We respect intellectual property rights and comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). We will respond to valid takedown notices and may terminate accounts of repeat infringers.

MusiciansXchange maintains audit logs of all file downloads for copyright protection purposes. We collect mailing addresses and phone numbers so that we can contact users in connection with copyright or intellectual property concerns.

6. Collaborations
The Service facilitates collaboration between music creators. Ownership and rights to collaborative works are determined by the participants involved. MusiciansXchange is not a party to any collaboration agreement between users and does not mediate disputes regarding creative contributions, credits, or revenue sharing. We encourage collaborators to establish clear agreements regarding ownership and rights before beginning work together.

7. Third-Party Publishing & Revenue
MusiciansXchange does not handle, manage, or mediate profit sharing, revenue splits, or royalty distribution for works published to third-party platforms including but not limited to Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, or any other distribution service. The platform provides collaboration data (participants, credits, contribution history) that may be used by participants and their legal representatives, but MusiciansXchange assumes no responsibility for revenue agreements between collaborators.

8. Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to:
- Upload content you do not have the right to share, including unauthorized samples or loops sourced from copyrighted recordings, cover recordings of copyrighted compositions without proper mechanical licensing, stream-ripped audio extracted from streaming services, pirated or leaked commercial recordings, or audio captured from films, television, video games, or other protected works without license
