Terms of Service

Last updated: 2025-08-26

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of AWE’s website, services, and licensed works. By using our site or obtaining any license from AWE, you agree to these Terms.

1. Ownership and Intellectual Property

AWE owns and/or exclusively represents a catalog of sound recordings, musical compositions, artworks, and related creative products. Unless expressly stated otherwise in a signed agreement, AWE controls or represents both master and publishing for select works available for licensing.

  • Brand and trademarks: “AWE”, related names, logos, and trade dress are the exclusive property of AWE. All goodwill in the marks inures to AWE.
  • Artist name “m”: The artist name “m” and related products, artworks, and brand assets are owned by or exclusively represented by AWE unless otherwise stated in writing.
  • Other contributors: Works created by other artists and collaborators are owned by their respective creators and/or AWE as per signed agreements. For the purposes of licensing and exploitation, AWE acts as owner and/or authorized rights holder. Unauthorized use is prohibited.

2. Licenses and Usage

When you obtain a license from AWE (e.g., for sync in film/TV/ads/games), you receive only the rights expressly granted in the written license confirmation. All other rights are reserved. Territory, term, media, exclusivity, and any buyout must be explicitly agreed in writing.

Stems, instrumentals, TV mixes and alternates may be provided on request. Use beyond the license scope requires prior written approval and may incur additional fees.

3. Prohibited Uses

You may not: (a) redistribute, resell, or sub-license any work except as permitted by your license; (b) claim ownership over AWE works; (c) use the works in illegal, defamatory, or infringing ways; (d) remove copyright, trademark, or attribution notices.

4. User Submissions

If you submit briefs, references, or materials, you represent you have the necessary rights and that your materials do not infringe any third party’s rights. You grant AWE the right to review such materials solely for the purpose of responding to your request.

5. Fees, Payment, and Refunds

Fees are due as specified in the quote or license confirmation. Unless expressly stated otherwise, payments are non‑refundable once the license has been issued or services have commenced.

6. Warranties and Disclaimers

AWE provides the website and services “as is”. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non‑infringement.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, AWE will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenues, or data, arising from your use of the site, services, or licensed works.

8. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by applicable laws of the jurisdiction where AWE is established, without regard to conflict of law principles. Venue and jurisdiction will lie in the competent courts of that jurisdiction.

9. Updates

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use constitutes acceptance.
