Acceptable use policy
This policy is part of our terms of service. It applies to everything you capture, upload, publish, sell, write or say on DigMusiK.
1. Capturing
- Only capture hardware you own or have permission to use, and software plugins you're licensed to use, in a way their licences allow.
- Read a plugin's licence before capturing it. If it forbids using the plugin's output to train or build a model, or to make something that imitates it, don't capture that plugin.
- Captures that include software plugins are for your own use only. Don't share them, publish them, put them in a published chain or sell them, and don't try to get around this (for example by relabelling a plugin capture as hardware). In a shared session, only confirm that you own a plugin's licence if you really do.
- Upload audio renders only. Never upload plugin files, installers, presets protected by their makers, or code.
- Only upload renders of our reference signals. Don't upload other people's recordings, samples or music as captures.
- Describe the chain honestly and credit every piece of gear and software in it.
2. Publishing and naming
- Name the sound and credit the gear. Don't use a manufacturer's product name on its own as a title, and don't suggest a manufacturer made, sponsors or endorses your signature.
- Don't publish signatures of products whose makers have opted out of public listing.
- Don't claim a signature is identical to, approved by or a replacement for any manufacturer's product, and don't use other companies' logos or product artwork.
- Descriptions, stories, photos and profiles must be truthful and must not include anyone's personal data without their permission.
3. Selling
- Only sell plugins made from real hardware you own and have verified with us. Captures that include software plugins can't be sold, given away or shared.
- Don't sell the same unit's capture under a different identity, and don't misrepresent a unit's history, condition or provenance.
- Follow the creator agreement.
4. Protection and security
- Don't try to copy, decrypt, extract or redistribute signatures or protected plugins, or to train another model from their output.
- Don't upload or share NAM captures you don't have the right to use or share, and don't publish, sell or re-upload captures from another library outside what its licence and terms allow.
- Don't get around device limits, licence checks, capture allowances or payment, share accounts, or create accounts to avoid a suspension.
- Don't probe, scan or test the security of our systems without our written permission, overload them, or interfere with other users. If you find a vulnerability, tell us at support@digmusik.com.
5. Illegal and harmful content
Don't upload, publish, write or link to anything illegal, including content that infringes copyright or trademarks, terrorism content, child sexual abuse material, intimate images shared without consent, threats, harassment, hate content, fraud or malware. Don't use DigMusiK to contact or target children. We remove illegal content as soon as we become aware of it, and report it to the authorities where the law requires.
5A. Pages, bookings and messages
Don't send spam, bulk or unsolicited sales messages, or chain messages; don't make bookings or enquiries you don't mean, or use them to collect people's details; don't sell tickets to events that aren't real or that you can't run, or resell tickets for more than you paid; don't state false follower numbers or pretend to be a band, venue, studio or person you don't speak for; don't try to get around a block or a teen account's protections, or ask a teen to move a conversation somewhere else. Keep messages to music and work.
6. Reporting and enforcement
Report anything that breaks this policy using the Report link on its page or message, or see our notice and takedown policy. Depending on how serious and repeated a breach is, we may warn you, remove content, hide your signatures, stop payouts for affected sales, suspend your account or close it. We'll explain our decision and how to appeal, unless the law or safety reasons prevent us.
