Terms of Service

Effective date: 1 February 2026 (updated 8 May 2026)

1. General

These Terms (the “Terms”) govern the relationship between the SoundSeed.app service (the “Service”) and the user (the “User”) using the @soundseed_bot Telegram bot to generate musical content.

The Service is owned by (the “Company”). Registered office address: (“”), registration number: .

By using the Service, the User confirms that they have read these Terms and accept them in full.

2. Description of the Service

SoundSeed provides music-generation services powered by artificial intelligence. The Service includes:

  • Generating song lyrics from a user-provided description
  • Creating musical compositions in a variety of genres
  • Generating cover art for songs
  • Generating music inspired by a photo

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service (16 years old if you reside in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom). By using the Service you represent that you meet this age requirement and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

4. Acceptable use

The User agrees to:

  • Use the Service only for lawful purposes
  • Not create content that infringes the copyright, trademark, publicity, privacy or other rights of any third party
  • Not use the Service to imitate the voice, name, image, likeness or distinctive vocal style of any specific living or deceased artist, performer or other identifiable individual without their (or their estate's) prior written consent
  • Not present generated audio as an authentic recording of, or as endorsed by, any real artist or other identifiable person
  • Not use the Service to create offensive, defamatory, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit content involving minors, or otherwise unlawful or harmful content
  • Not attempt to bypass any technical limitations of the Service

These rules are designed in part to comply with U.S. right-of-publicity laws (including the Tennessee ELVIS Act and similar federal proposals), as well as with platform policies that prohibit unauthorised vocal imitation of real artists.

5. AI content disclosure

All audio, lyrics and cover art produced by the Service are generated by artificial-intelligence models. They are not recordings of any real artist and do not represent the views of any real person.

When the User publishes or distributes generated content, the User is responsible for disclosing its AI-generated nature wherever such disclosure is required by applicable law (including U.S. state-level deepfake and disclosure statutes) or by the policies of the platform on which the content is published (for example, YouTube, Spotify, TikTok or Apple Music).

6. Rights to generated content

Subject to these Terms, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company assigns to the User any rights it may hold in the audio, lyrics and cover art generated for the User through the Service. The User may use that output for personal or commercial purposes, including posting it on social media, using it in videos, and gifting or selling it.

Important notice on copyright: the United States Copyright Office and several other authorities currently take the position that purely AI-generated material, without sufficient human creative authorship, is not eligible for copyright protection. SoundSeed makes no representation or warranty that any specific output is eligible for copyright registration or otherwise protected as an original work of authorship in any jurisdiction.

Generated tracks are intended to be unique, but the Service is trained on large corpora of music and may unintentionally produce output that resembles existing works. The User is solely responsible for clearing any rights and reviewing the output for potential conflicts before any commercial use.

The Service is not liable for any unintended similarity between generated tracks and existing works.

7. Third-party content and DMCA notices

If you believe that content generated through or hosted by the Service infringes your copyright, please send a notice to copyright@soundseed.app that includes: (a) identification of the copyrighted work, (b) identification of the allegedly infringing material and information sufficient to locate it, (c) your contact information, (d) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law, (e) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are authorised to act on behalf of the rights holder, and (f) your physical or electronic signature.

We will respond to valid notices in accordance with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) and analogous procedures in other jurisdictions.

8. Third-party platform policies

When publishing generated content on third-party platforms (including but not limited to YouTube, Spotify, TikTok, Instagram, Apple Music and SoundCloud), the User is responsible for complying with that platform's rules on AI-generated, synthetic or altered content, on artist impersonation and on monetisation. SoundSeed has no control over those policies and is not liable for the removal, demonetisation or rejection of content by a third-party platform.

9. Payment

The Service is paid for using the following methods:

  • SBP — Russia's Faster Payments System (pay by QR code via your banking app)

Payment is made in advance, in non-cash form, for 100% of the order amount within 60 (sixty) minutes from the time the invoice is issued. The invoice is generated automatically by creating and following a payment link.

Coins granted free of charge (welcome, bonus or promotional coins) are promotional units and remain valid for 21 (twenty-one) days from the User's last use of the Service. If the User performs no generation or other action in the Service during that period, the unused free coins are forfeited. This rule does not apply to coins purchased for money.

Refunds are available where the Service was technically unable to be delivered. To request a refund, please contact support. In addition, refunds will be made wherever required by mandatory consumer-protection laws of the User's jurisdiction.

10. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE OR ANY GENERATED CONTENT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, ACCURATE, ORIGINAL OR FREE OF MATERIAL THAT RESEMBLES EXISTING WORKS.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, DATA OR OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS PAID BY THE USER TO THE COMPANY IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD 100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liabilities, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

11. Indemnification

The User agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all third-party claims, demands, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) the User's use of the Service or any generated content, (b) the User's violation of these Terms or of any law or regulation, or (c) the User's actual or alleged infringement of any third party's copyright, trademark, right of publicity, privacy, contractual or other rights.

12. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hong Kong, except where mandatory consumer-protection laws of the User's jurisdiction grant the User the right to bring proceedings before the courts of their place of residence.

13. Privacy

We collect only the minimum data required to operate the Service: a Telegram user ID and a generation history. This data is not shared with third parties, except where required by applicable law. Detailed information is available in our Privacy Policy at soundseed.app/privacy.

14. Changes to these Terms

The Service reserves the right to update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated to users through the bot. Continued use of the Service after such changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
