This Creator Agreement applies to all users who upload music or other content to IWEYmusic.com for the purpose of distribution, sale, or fan support. It forms part of and supplements our Terms & Conditions.
By uploading your first track or activating a creator account, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Agreement in full.
This Agreement applies to any individual or legal entity (“Creator”, “you”) who:
Listeners who do not upload content are not subject to this Agreement (they are governed solely by the Terms & Conditions).
If you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity (such as a record label or music publisher), you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity, and “you” in this Agreement refers to that entity.
To become a Creator on IWEYmusic you must:
IWEYmusic does not pay creators, so no payout or Stripe account is needed to publish on IWEYmusic.
You must keep your creator profile and contact details accurate and current. Providing false identity information is a material breach of this Agreement and may be reported to relevant authorities.
IWEYmusic is a platform for original music. You may only upload content that you created, own, or have the full legal right to distribute and monetise on the platform. This includes:
You may not upload:
We permit the upload of music created with AI tools, provided:
All uploaded content must meet reasonable quality and metadata standards:
You retain full ownership of all copyright and other intellectual property rights in the content you upload to IWEYmusic. This Agreement does not transfer any ownership rights to Hellström Trading i Göteborg AB.
By uploading content, you grant Hellström Trading i Göteborg AB a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to:
This licence is granted for the sole purpose of operating, promoting, and improving the IWEYmusic platform. It does not permit us to sell, sublicense, or commercially exploit your content outside the platform.
This licence terminates when you remove the relevant content from the platform or close your account in good standing, subject to a technical propagation period of up to 30 days. Downloaded files made in the context of user purchases remain with the purchasing user permanently under their personal licence. Streaming access for users who have purchased your content is time-limited to 6 months from the purchase date and will expire automatically regardless of content removal.
By uploading any content to IWEYmusic, you warrant and represent that:
You are solely and exclusively responsible for ensuring your content does not infringe any third-party rights. IWEYmusic does not pre-screen uploaded content for copyright compliance. We act on valid takedown notices under our Copyright & Takedown Policy, but this does not constitute an endorsement or verification of the legality of your content.
If it is found that any warranty in Section 5.1 was false or inaccurate, we may immediately remove the infringing content, suspend or terminate your account, and pursue or cooperate with any legal proceedings arising from the infringement.
Every sale on IWEYmusic — tracks, albums, licences, subscriptions, credit packs — is made by Hellström Trading i Göteborg AB as the seller of record, which charges any VAT, issues the invoice and keeps the full price. Donations are made to IWEYmusic.
Creators are not paid a share of sales or donations, and IWEYmusic makes no payouts to creators. Publishing on IWEYmusic gives your music a home and an audience under the licence in section 4; it does not earn you revenue from IWEYmusic.
A creator plan and credit packs are purchases from Hellström Trading i Göteborg AB, with VAT included in the price and an invoice for each payment. Credits never expire and are not refunded.
IWEYmusic pays creators nothing, so it withholds nothing and reports no earnings for you. You remain responsible for any taxes that apply to you in your country of residence or operation.
The creator plan and credit packs are sold with Swedish VAT included; a VAT-registered business can find the VAT on the invoice for each payment.
You have full control over the pricing of your music and any commercial licences you offer. You may also set content as free to stream or free to download, in which case no transaction commission is charged.
Where applicable, we may set minimum or maximum price floors and ceilings to maintain platform integrity. Current limits (if any) are displayed in your creator dashboard. We will provide 14 days’ notice before implementing new price limits.
You may change the price of your content at any time. Price changes apply only to transactions made after the change. Previously purchased licences are not affected.
IWEYmusic may run platform-wide promotional periods (e.g., discounts, featured placement). Your participation in any promotion is always opt-in and will be presented to you in advance.
You may remove any of your content from the platform at any time via your creator dashboard. Removal will take effect within a reasonable technical propagation period (up to 72 hours). Removal does not entitle you to reverse completed transactions or retrieve earnings already paid out.
We may remove or disable access to your content without prior notice if:
We will notify you of removals by IWEYmusic, including the reason, unless prohibited by law or court order.
If your content is removed following a copyright takedown notice and you believe this was in error, you may file a counter-notice under the procedure described in our Copyright & Takedown Policy.
In addition to the conduct prohibited under the Terms & Conditions and Acceptable Use Policy, Creators specifically must not:
We may suspend or permanently terminate your creator account, with immediate effect and without prior notice, if you:
You may terminate this Agreement at any time by closing your creator account. To do so, contact support@iweymusic.com.
On termination:
You agree to fully indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Hellström Trading i Göteborg AB, its directors, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with:
We will notify you promptly of any claim covered by this indemnity and give you reasonable opportunity to respond. We may participate in the defence of any such claim at our own cost.
To the maximum extent permitted by Swedish and EU law, Hellström Trading i Göteborg AB shall not be liable to you for:
Our total aggregate liability to you under this Agreement shall not exceed the total you have paid us (creator plan and credit packs) in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
We may update this Creator Agreement from time to time. For material changes — particularly changes to what creators pay or to copyright responsibilities — we will provide at least 30 days’ written notice to your registered email address before changes take effect.
Your continued use of the creator features of IWEYmusic after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Agreement. If you do not accept the changes, you must stop using creator features and may terminate your account.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of Sweden. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement that cannot be resolved amicably shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Gothenburg, Sweden (Göteborgs tingsrätt).
If you are a consumer (not a business), you are not deprived of the protection of any mandatory consumer protection provisions of the law of your country of residence.
