1 - General Terms and Conditions
  1. Description. RYDDM is a new music streaming application created specifically to allow end user music consumers and fans (“Fans”) to discover independent artists, help promote such independent artists and their music(collectively “Independent Artists”), and discover live events promoted by venues in their area (“Venues”). RYDDM focuses on Independent Artists because we feel that the concentration of music on terrestrial radio, television and the leading streaming services does not help artists grow and flourish. While many online services claim that they assist and promote Independent Artists, RYDDM will be the leader in this field, with the most approachable and easy-to-use promotion method for Independent Artists in growing their Fan base so that they can develop a sustainable livelihood. By combining music discovery with the amplification effects of a streaming platform, we believe you, the Fan, will be best positioned to help your favorite Independent Artists find more success in the market. We are excited that you are choosing to enjoy your music with RYDDM.

  1. Eligibility. THE SERVICE IS NOT FOR PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF 13 OR FOR ANY USERS PREVIOUSLY SUSPENDED OR REMOVED FROM THE SERVICE BY RYDDM. IF YOU ARE UNDER 13 YEARS OF AGE, THEN YOU MUST NOT USE OR ACCESS THE SERVICE AT ANY TIME OR IN ANY MANNER. Furthermore, by using the Service, you affirm that either you are at least 18 years of age or have been authorized to use the Service by your parent or legal guardian who is at least 18 years of age and agreed to this EULA on your behalf. If you are using the Service on behalf of an entity (including a band) or organization, then you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity or organization to this EULA and you agree to be bound by this EULA on behalf of that entity or organization.
  2. Changes. As the Service is likely to undergo many changes over time, RYDDM reserves the right to modify this EULA as the functionalities of the Service change. You therefore agree that RYDDM may modify or amend this EULA at any time for any reason or no reason in its sole discretion. If RYDDM makes such changes you will be provided with conspicuous, prior notice in addition to [CS1] an updated EULA posted to the RYDDM website, within the App, or anywhere within the Service. If you do not agree to the modified or amended EULA terms, conditions, provisions, or restrictions, you will be required to affirmatively decline these changes upon such notice. Your continued use of the Service constitutes consent and agreement to such changes. You may read a current, effective copy of this EULA at any time at Ryddm.com/terms. The revised EULA will become effective at the time of posting on the Service, and your use of the Service after such time will constitute your agreement to and acceptance of the revised EULA. If any change to this EULA is not acceptable to you, then your sole remedy is to stop using the Service. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences of this Section 1.c, no revisions to this EULA will apply to any dispute between you and RYDDM that arose prior to the effective date of those revisions

You must not Post any User Content on or through the Service or transmit to RYDDM any User Content that you consider to be confidential or proprietary. Any User Content Posted by you or otherwise transmitted to RYDDM will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary, and treated as such by RYDDM, and may be used by RYDDM in accordance with this EULA without notice to you and without any liability to RYDDM.

You must not Post any User Content if you are not the owner of or are not fully authorized to grant rights in all of the elements of the User Content you intend to Post. In addition, if you only own the rights in and to a sound recording, but not to the underlying musical works embodied in such sound recordings, then you must not Post such sound recordings unless you have obtained all necessary rights, authorizations and permissions with respect to such embedded musical works that grant you sufficient rights to grant the licenses to RYDDM under this EULA. You represent and warrant that: (i) you own the User Content Posted by you or otherwise have all rights necessary to grant the licenses set forth in this EULA; (ii) the Posting and Use of your User Content by anyone does not violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, trademark rights, patent rights, trade secret rights, contract rights, or any other rights of any party, including, but not limited to, the rights of any person visible in any of your User Content; (iii) the Posting of your User Content will not require us to obtain any further licenses from or pay any royalties, fees, compensation or other amounts or provide any attribution to any third parties; and (iv) the Posting of your User Content does not result in a breach of contract between you and a third party.

  6. Specific Rules for Musical Works and for Recording Artists. If you are a composer or author of a musical work and are affiliated with a PRO, then you must notify your PRO of the royalty-free license you grant through this EULA to RYDDM. You are solely responsible for ensuring your compliance with the relevant PRO’s reporting obligations. If you have assigned your rights to a music publisher, then you must obtain the consent of such music publisher to grant the royalty-free license(s) set forth in this EULA or have such music publisher enter into this EULA with RYDDM. Just because you authored a musical work (e.g., wrote a song) does not mean you have the right to grant RYDDM the licenses in this EULA. If you are a recording artist under contract with a record label, then you are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service is in compliance with any contractual obligations you may have to your record label, including if you create any new recordings through the Service that may be claimed by your label. You represent and warrant that no fees of any kind shall be due any third party, including, but not limited to, any union, guild, non-featured vocalist or musician, engineer or producer, for the use or re-use of your Music as authorized under this Agreement. Finally, if you wish to perform a cover song and Post it to the Service, you are responsible for securing all rights in and to the underlying musical work before posting your recording or performance of such musical work to the Service.
  7. If any agreement you have entered into with any third party, including, but not limited to a PRO, music publisher, union or guild, whether by law or contract, prohibits you from granting company the right and license set forth in this Agreement and making the representations and warranties set forth in the four paragraphs immediately above, then you are prohibited from uploading your music to the Service and shall be responsible for indemnifying and holding company harmless from and against any and all claims arising from the exploitation of your music on the Service, including all court costs and legal fees.
  8. Through-To-The-Audience Rights. All of the rights you grant in this EULA are provided on a through-to-the-audience basis, meaning the owners or operators of External Services will not have any separate liability to you or any other third party for User Content Posted or Used on such External Services via the Service.
  9. Waiver of Rights to User Content. By Posting User Content, you waive any rights to prior inspection or approval of any marketing or promotional materials related to such User Content. You also waive any and all rights of privacy, publicity or any other rights of a similar nature in connection with your User Content, or any portion thereof. To the extent any moral rights are not transferable or assignable, you hereby waive and agree never to assert any and all moral rights, or to support, maintain or permit any action based on any moral rights that you may have in or with respect to any User Content you Post.
  10. Promotions As between you and Ryddm, Ryddm reserves the right to establish or adjust Charges for any or all services or goods obtained through the use of the Services at any time. Uber will use reasonable efforts to inform you of Charges that may apply, provided that you will be responsible for Charges incurred under your Account regardless of your awareness of such Charges or the amounts thereof. Certain users may from time to time receive promotional offers and discounts that may result in different amounts charged for the same or similar services or goods obtained through the use of the Services, and you agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless also made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of the Services or the Charges applied to you.

Following an Artist or purchasing a subscription to an Artist (an “Artist Subscription”) gives that Artist access to your email address, as does making a purchase from an Artist while logged in to your Fan Account. Your wishlist, history of purchases of Music, and any information you provide for your profile page will be available to other users of the Service by default, subject to our Privacy Policy.
As a condition to each such Artist’s right to receive such Fan Information, Company requires each Artist to agree to the terms set forth in the next section of this Agreement.

7 – Fees and Payments

RYDDM facilitates payments for purchases of Content including digital Content made available via streaming through the Service (“Digital Content”), physical merchandise (“Merchandise”) and Artist Subscriptions. Each such purchase is a “Transaction,” each Transaction involving Digital Content is a “Digital Transaction,”, and each Transaction involving Merchandise is a “Merchandise Transaction.” Transactions may be made using Standard Payments or Enhanced Payments, which are detailed here.

Fees and Payments – Fans.
You may purchase products and/or services from an Artist through the Site or Mobile application, including, without limitation, purchases of Content including Digital Content, Merchandise, and Artist Subscriptions. All inquiries regarding Merchandise Transactions will be directed to the relevant Artist. Company is not responsible for refunds for Merchandise, except as provided in this Agreement.
All sales of Digital Content are final (except where prohibited by law), unless otherwise determined by RYDDM. If you do not receive the Digital Content or otherwise have an issue with the Digital Content delivered, please contact RYDDM with your request and proof of payment, and we will notify the relevant Artist and work with them to resolve your issue. At RYDDM’s sole discretion, you may be credited or refunded for the Digital Content. However, you understand and agree that RYDDM is a platform that Artists use to sell their products, and the Digital Content is derived from files provided by the relevant Artist, and the relevant Artist is solely responsible for such files.
Your total price for Digital Content will include the price of the product plus any applicable sales tax; such sales tax is based on your location and the sales tax rate in effect at the time you purchase the product. We will charge tax only in states or countries where digital goods are taxable.

Billing Authorization. BY PROVIDING YOUR PAYMENT METHOD AS PERMITTED ON OUR WEBSITE OR VIA OUR APP AND OBTAINING A SUBSCRIPTION TO THE SERVICE, YOU AUTHORIZE US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR TO CHARGE, YOUR DESIGNATED PAYMENT METHOD THE APPLICABLE MONTHLY RECURRING SUBSCRIPTION FEES (“SUBSCRIPTION FEE”), AND ANY APPLICABLE SALES, TELECOMMUNICATION, EXCISE, VALUED-ADDED OR SIMILAR TAXES (“TAXES”). THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE IS EXCLUSIVE OF ANY SUCH TAXES. THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE IS PAYABLE IN U.S. DOLLARS. SUBSCRIPTION CHARGES WILL BE DISPLAYED TO YOU AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE.
Monthly Subscription. If you purchase a “Monthly Subscription,” then you will be provided with access to the Subscription for rolling 30-day periods. Monthly Subscription fees will be charged at the time of purchase and every 30 days thereafter unless we notify you in advance of any change to such billing frequency.

Subscription Fee Changes. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE OUR SUBSCRIPTION FEES, IF ANY, AT ANY TIME IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION. IF WE CHANGE OUR SUBSCRIPTION FEES, THEN WE WILL PROVIDE YOU NOTICE OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE AT LEAST 30 DAYS BEFORE THE CHANGE IS TO TAKE EFFECT. SUBSCRIPTION FEE CHANGES WILL TAKE EFFECT AT THE START OF THE NEXT RENEWAL OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION FOLLOWING THE DATE OF THE PRICE CHANGE. YOU ACCEPT THE NEW PRICE BY CONTINUING TO USE APPLICABLE SUBSCRIPTION OFFERING AFTER THE PRICE CHANGE TAKES EFFECT. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THE PRICE CHANGE, THEN YOU MAY CANCEL THE SUBSCRIPTION PRIOR TO THE PRICE CHANGE GOING INTO EFFECT.
Billing Inquiries and Refunds. If you believe you have been billed in error for a Subscription or any portion thereof, then please notify us within 60 days of the billing date by sending an email to [email protected].

Automatic Renewal of Subscriptions. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BY PURCHASING A SUBSCRIPTION TO THE SERVICE YOU AGREE THAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW AT THE END OF EACH SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD AT THE THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION FEE, UNLESS AND UNTIL YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AS PROVIDED FOR BELOW. IF WE CANCEL THE SUBSCRIPTION PLAN TO WHICH YOU SUBSCRIBE, WE WILL NOTIFY YOU IN ADVANCE OF SUCH PLAN TERMINATION. IF YOU DO NOT TERMINATE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION PRIOR TO OUR TERMINATING A SUBSCRIPTION PLAN, THEN WE WILL RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AT THE SUCCESSOR SUBSCRIPTION PLAN PRICE. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO KEEP YOUR PAYMENT METHOD CURRENT IN ORDER TO ENSURE UNINTERRUPTED ACCESS TO THE SERVICE.

Content you purchase in a Transaction cannot be guaranteed to be available to you perpetually. For example, if we receive a notification of claimed infringement from a copyright owner or its agent with respect to specific Content, then U.S. law may require us to remove that Content from the Service and not make it available for future sale and we may also have to deny continued access to anyone who previously purchased such Content. This means that you may lose access to purchased Content previously available to you through the Service.

If we are required by law to deny access through the Service to previously purchased Content, including by removing access to Content from a user’s personal collection through any mobile application, then Company and Artists will not provide the user who purchased that Content with a refund, except as required by applicable law. Users bear all risk from the denial of access to any Content purchased through the Service.

Because there is a possibility that we may be required to deny you access to previously purchased Content, we encourage you to promptly view any Content you purchase or unlock. You warrant that if you enter into a Transaction, then you shall be able to make full and immediate payment for the requested products or services.

Fees and Payments – Artists.
You will set the prices for your products and services that are charged through Transactions (the “Prices”) through the Site, and you may change the Prices at your sole discretion. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, RYDDM may redistribute previously purchased copies of your products to users who have, in RYDDM’s sole determination, received a corrupted copy of your product, an incorrect file format version of your product, an incomplete copy of your product, or suffered a loss of your product through hard drive failure, damage, theft or destruction, on a no-fee basis to the user (i.e., the user is not charged a new fee for the redistribution). Such redistribution may be effectuated by allowing a user to redownload a replacement copy themselves. A user that has a Fan Account will also be permitted to unlock any previously purchased Content from an Artist. In the event of any of the foregoing redistributions, no additional payments shall be made to you for such redistributions.

Company shall be entitled to a share of the revenue you receive from Transactions (the “Revenue Share”), which shall be calculated on your gross revenue from Transactions, not including any Transactions for which you or we provide a refund, in accordance with the rate schedule set forth at RYDDM.com/pricing. You shall be solely responsible and liable for, and Company shall have no responsibility or liability for, any Stripe fees (except for fees charged on Company’s Stripe account), PayPal fees (except for fees charged on Company’s PayPal account), credit card transaction fees (together, “Fees”), bad debts (such as credit card returns or fraud), disputed payments, and refunds, except as provided in this Agreement.

RYDDM shall remit any such withheld taxes, duties, charges or levies to the appropriate tax authority.
For Merchandise Transactions using Standard Payments, payments received from users for Merchandise shall be directed to you, unless there is an outstanding Revenue Share owed to Company in which case such payments may be directed to Company in accordance with Company’s standard policies. RYDDM may retain funds otherwise payable to you if RYDDM is required or chooses to provide a refund on your behalf.

For Digital Content and Merchandise Transactions using Enhanced Payments, RYDDM will collect the purchase price and any applicable Fees and taxes. RYDDM will pay you the gross proceeds we receive from the sale of Digital Content, minus the applicable Revenue Share and any applicable Fees (the “Artist Payout”). For Artist Subscriptions, payments received from users shall be directed to you (the “Subscription Fee”), minus the applicable Revenue Share and any applicable fees which shall be directed to RYDDM at the time of each payment.

When you receive a payment for Digital Content or Artist Subscription, you are liable to RYDDM for the full amount of the payment sent to you plus any Fees if the payment is later invalidated for any reason. This means that, in addition to any other liability, you will be responsible for the amount of the payment sent by the sender, plus the applicable Fees if there is a chargeback, a dispute, or if there is a reversal of the payment. You agree to allow RYDDM to recover any amounts due to RYDDM by debiting your account or withholding any Artist Payout or Subscription Fee. If there are insufficient funds to cover your liability, you agree to reimburse RYDDM through other means.

Company retains the right, but does not have the obligation, to immediately halt the offering or sale of any goods or services, prevent or restrict access to the Site or the Services or take any other action in case of technical problems, objectionable material, inaccurate listings, or actions otherwise prohibited by the procedures and guidelines contained on the Site, or for any other reason in the sole and absolute discretion of Company, and to correct any inaccurate listing or technical problems on the Site.

15 - DISPUTE RESOLUTION
  1. General. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and RYDDM in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and RYDDM agree that any dispute arising out of or in any way related to this EULA or your use of the Service will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or in any way related to this EULA or your use of the Service, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this EULA. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS EULA, YOU AND RYDDM ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AND THAT THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SUBJECT TO AND GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT.
  2. Exceptions. Notwithstanding Section 14.a above, nothing in this EULA will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in aid of arbitration from a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
  3. Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 14 within 30 days after the date that you agree to this EULA by sending a letter to Rydm Inc, Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, 100 Fisher Avenue P.O Box 243, White Plains, NY 10602, that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once RYDDM receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 14 will be void and any action arising out of this EULA will be resolved as set forth in Section 15. The remaining provisions of this EULA will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
  4. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and RYDDM will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this EULA, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting RYDDM. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.
  5. Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by U.S. Mail (“Notice”) or, if an address is not available to such party, to the email address of such party as made available on or through the Service. RYDDM’s address for Notice is: 821 East Washington Avenue Suite 200E, Madison, WI 53703, Attn: Legal Counsel. The Notice must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or RYDDM may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or RYDDM must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor with a monetary award that exceeds the last written settlement amount offered by RYDDM prior to selection of an arbitrator, RYDDM will pay you the highest of the following: (1) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (2) the last written settlement amount offered by RYDDM in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (3) $100
  6. Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this EULA, RYDDM will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000 or as set forth below, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in New York, New York, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (i) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (ii) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (iii) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse RYDDM for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. Each party agrees that such written decision, and information exchanged during arbitration, will be kept confidential except to the extent necessary to enforce or permit limited judicial review of the award. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
  7. No Class Actions. YOU AND RYDDM AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and RYDDM agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
  8. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. Except as otherwise provided in this EULA, if RYDDM makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to RYDDM’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending RYDDM written notice within 30 days of the change to RYDDM’s address for Notice, in which case this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected, will continue to govern any disputes between you and RYDDM.
  9. Enforceability. If Section 14.g above is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 14 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 14 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue as described in Section 15 will govern any action arising out of or related to this EULA or your use of the Service.

16 - Governing Law; Choice of Forum
This EULA shall be deemed entered into in the State of New York.
