These terms govern your use of SWF.one, the music tagging and similarity search platform at https://swf.one (“SWF.one”, “the Service”, “we”, “us”). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to them. If you are agreeing on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you have authority to bind that organisation.
SWF.one analyses audio you provide, generates descriptive metadata for it, and lets you search your catalogue by that metadata and by similarity. Accounts are organisation-scoped: your catalogue is visible to members of your organisation, and is not shared with other customers.
You keep ownership of your audio. Uploading it to SWF.one transfers no ownership to us. You grant us only the permission we need to run the Service for you: to store your files, process and analyse them, generate metadata, and make them available for playback and search to you and the members of your organisation.
You are responsible for having the rights to the audio you upload. Do not upload material you do not own or are not licensed to use.
Metadata we generate is yours to use. The analysis results produced for your tracks are provided to you for use in your business, including in your own catalogue and licensing operations.
You agree not to:
If you connect Google Drive or Dropbox, you authorise us to read the files you select in order to import them. Our access is read-only, and we cannot modify or delete anything in those accounts. You may disconnect at any time, from the Integrations page or from within your Google or Dropbox account. Your use of those services remains subject to their own terms.
Tags and similarity results are generated automatically. They are informative, not authoritative: they may be incomplete or wrong for any given track, and they are not a substitute for your own judgement. In particular, nothing the Service outputs is a statement about the copyright, ownership, clearance or licensing status of any recording, and you should not rely on it as one.
We aim to keep the Service available and to improve it, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted operation. We may add, change or withdraw features. Where a change materially reduces functionality you rely on, we will give account holders reasonable notice.
Where your access is paid, the fees, billing period and any usage limits are those set out in your order or subscription. Fees are payable in advance unless agreed otherwise. Failure to pay may result in suspension of access.
You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you materially breach these terms, if required by law, or to protect the Service or its users. On termination, your right to use the Service ends; see the Privacy Policy for what happens to your data. You can export or request a copy of your catalogue data before closing an account.
The Service is provided “as is”. To the extent permitted by law, we exclude implied warranties, including of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the metadata generated will be accurate or complete.
To the extent permitted by law, neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or for lost profits, revenue, or data. Our total liability arising out of or relating to the Service is limited to the amounts you paid us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
We may update these terms. The date at the top of this page shows when they last changed, and we will notify account holders of material changes. Continuing to use the Service after a change takes effect means you accept the updated terms.
