Terms of Use

TRACK RECORD™

Last updated: July 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Track Record platform, including our website, applications, and related services (together, the "Service"), operated by Track Record ("we", "us", or "our") whether as a registered user, a contributor to a mixtape or just somebody who is browsing our Service for information purposes. Use of our Service includes accessing, browsing, or registering to use our Service.

By using our Service you confirm that you accept these Terms of Use and that you agree to comply with them. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, you must not use our Service.

Please read these Terms carefully. They contain important information about your rights and obligations, including limitations on our liability and the basis on which content is shared.

Information about us

The website currently located at www.track-record.org is a Service operated by us.

What the Service is

Track Record is a service for making mixtapes with the meaning attached. Using Track Record you can:

create a mixtape for yourself, for a person or for an occasion;
share control of a mixtape with others ("co-curators"), who can then invite contributors, edit the mixtape and deliver it;
invite others ("contributors") to add tiles to it;
attach your own written notes, voice recordings, photographs and videos to each track, explaining why it matters ("context");
arrange those contributions into a running order; and
deliver the finished mixtape to a recipient, who can play it and read, hear and see the context attached to it.

The Service does not host or stream commercial music recordings. Tracks are referenced via links to third-party music services (such as YouTube), and playback of those tracks occurs through those services, subject to their own terms. What Track Record stores is your own material — your notes, recordings, images, together with a reference to the track you chose.

Because tracks play through third-party services, the availability of any particular track is outside our control. A track may become unavailable in your country, or be removed by that service or by a rights holder, at any time and without notice. Where that happens we will keep the record of the track you chose, its title and artist, and all the context attached to it, and will, where we can, offer another way to play it. We cannot guarantee that any track will remain playable indefinitely.

Track Record is not a music streaming or download service, or a substitute for one. Delivering a mixtape does not transfer any rights in the underlying recordings or compositions, and does not give the recipient a copy of any recording. Pressings are used to deliver a mixtape you have created; they are not payment for access to music, which remains free to play through the third-party services described above.

Accounts

To use most features on the Service, you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to keep it up to date. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must notify us promptly of any unauthorised use of your account.

You are responsible for safeguarding your password and should not share it with anyone. We are not liable for any loss arising from unauthorised use of your account where you have failed to keep your credentials secure.

If you know or suspect that anyone other than you knows your user identification code or password, you must promptly notify us. If you fail to immediately notify us of any misuse of your account in accordance with these Terms of Use, you, and not us, will be responsible and liable for loss or damages that arise from activities on our Service that occur while a third party is using your account.

Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to use the Service, or older if required by the laws of your jurisdiction. By using the Service, you confirm that you meet this requirement.

If you do not meet the minimum age requirements then you must not register as a user or otherwise use the Service. You must be a human.

Rights you are giving us to use material you upload

Our Service may include information and materials uploaded by other users of the Service, including but not limited to tracks, voice recordings, written notes, photographs and videos. You acknowledge that we have no obligation to either verify or approve such information and materials uploaded by others, and that we do not endorse such information and materials. The views expressed by other users on our Service do not represent our views or values.

Our Service and all material available through our Service, including but not limited to information, text, graphics, logos, button icons, images, trademarks, databases, data and software (together the Works) are owned and controlled by or licensed to us, our affiliates and/or licensors. Those works are protected by copyright laws and treaties around the world. All rights in the Works are the sole and exclusive property of Track Record.

Further, you shall not distribute or make available any product or service that (a) was developed, either in whole or in part, through the use, including machine learning use, of any information or other content from the Service that was scraped, accessed, acquired, copied, monitored, gathered, or aggregated in violation of these Terms of Use or (b) constitutes or incorporates a software tool, service, technology or artificial intelligence system that was developed, trained, tested or improved through the use of content from the Service (or any information contained therein) in violation of these Terms of Use.

The information and other content on our Service are made available for personal use only.

You may not make any commercial use of our Service or any information or other content made available on our Service without prior authorisation in writing from us.

If you print off, copy or download any part of our Service (including any Works) in breach of these Terms of Use, your right to use our Service will cease immediately and you must, at our option, return or destroy any copies of the materials you have made.

Contributions

Whenever you make use of a feature that allows you to upload content to our Service, or to make contact with other users of our Service, you must comply with the content standards set out in these Terms of Use.

You warrant that any such contribution does comply with those standards, and you will be liable to us and indemnify us for any breach of that warranty. This means you will be responsible for any loss or damage we suffer as a result of your breach of warranty.

Any content you upload to our Service will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary. You retain all of your ownership rights in your content, but you are required to grant us and other users of our Service a limited license to use, store and copy that content and to distribute and make it available to third parties. The rights you license to us are described in the "Rights you are giving us to use material you upload" section above.

Any user submissions that contain or link to content that allegedly infringes the copyright of a third party may be removed upon request by the copyright holder, In this regard, we note that the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials available on the Service infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send to us a written notice, whether under the DMCA or otherwise, requesting that we remove such material or block access to it. You will find information on how to send such a notice to us in our copyright policy below.

We have the right to remove any posting you make on our Service if, in our opinion, your post does not comply with the content standards set out in our Acceptable Use Policy as set out below.

We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action against anyone who, in our sole discretion, violates this section, including removing content, suspending or terminating accounts, and reporting to law enforcement.

You agree that your use of the Service and any content uploaded to the Service is governed by the these rules, which are hereby incorporated into these Terms of Use by reference. By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these rules, as they may be updated from time to time. In the event of any irreconcilable conflict between these Terms of Use and these, these Terms of Use shall govern with respect to the Service to the extent of such conflict.

Collaboration, public content

When you invite others to collaborate on a mixtape, or accept an invitation, you understand that collaborators will be able to access and contribute to that mixtape, and that content shared within it is visible to those collaborators unless you change the visibility setting of each context element.

When you make a mixtape or tile public, you understand that the content within it — including your voice recordings, written notes, photographs, videos, name or username — becomes accessible to other users of the Service. You are responsible for ensuring you are comfortable making that content public.

Removal of content and suspension

We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to review, monitor, remove, or disable access to any content that we believe, in our sole discretion, violates these Terms, infringes the rights of others, or may expose us or other users to liability or harm. We may do so with or without notice.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, in whole or in part, at any time if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or to protect the Service or other users.

Failure to comply with this policy constitutes a material breach of the Terms of Use upon which you are permitted to use our Service, and may result in our taking all or any of the following actions:

Immediate, temporary or permanent withdrawal of your right to use our Service. Permanent withdrawal of your right to use the Service is likely when you are deemed to be a repeat infringer. A repeat infringer is a user who has been notified of multiple infringing activities.
Immediate, temporary or permanent removal of any posting or material uploaded by you to our Service. For example, any Contribution which contains or links to content that allegedly infringes the copyright of a third party will be removed upon request by the copyright holder.
Issue of a warning to you.
Legal proceedings against you for reimbursement of all costs on an indemnity basis (including, but not limited to, reasonable administrative and legal costs) resulting from the breach.
Further legal action against you.
Disclosure of such information to law enforcement authorities as we reasonably feel is necessary.

We exclude liability for actions taken in response to breaches of this acceptable use policy. The responses described in this policy are not limited, and we may take any other action we reasonably deem appropriate.

Reporting infringement and objectionable content

We will review and respond to valid reports and may remove content that infringes rights or breaches these Terms.

For copyright and other intellectual-property complaints in particular, our IP Policy sets out what a notice needs to contain, how we handle it, and how to send a counter notice if your material has been removed by mistake.

Your right to delete

You may delete your content or your account at any time through the Service. Deletion is subject to the retention practices described in our Privacy Policy. Please note that content you have made public or shared with others, or that has been incorporated into others' anthologies, may persist after deletion as described in that Policy.

Service availability and changes

We aim to keep the Service available and functioning, but we do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. We may, at any time, update or change our Service (including any part or feature thereof) and any information or other content made available on or through the Service with or without notice. We shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any loss or damages arising from or in connection with any such updates or changes relating to our Service or Service-related content. We are not liable for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service. Please note that any of the content made available on or through our Service may be out of date at any given time, and we are under no obligation to update it. We do not guarantee that our Service, or any Service-related content, will meet your specific requirements or will be free from errors or omissions.

Third-party services

The Service integrates with and links to third-party services, including music streaming platforms. We do not control and are not responsible for those services, their availability, their content, or their terms and practices. Your use of third-party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms.

Our Service uses YouTube and the YouTube API Services. By using our Service, you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service.

Where our Service contains links to other sites, resources or promotional offers provided by third parties (Third Party Materials), these links are provided for your information only. Such links should not be interpreted as approval by us of those linked websites, offers or information you may obtain from them. If you access any Third Party Materials, you understand that you do so on the applicable third party's terms and conditions and at your own risk.

We neither control nor endorse, nor are we responsible for, any Third Party Materials (including the accuracy, validity, timeliness, completeness, reliability, integrity, quality, legality, usefulness or safety of Third Party Materials, or any intellectual property rights therein), and we will not be liable to you for loss or damages arising from or in connection with Third Party Materials.

Nothing in these Terms of Use shall be deemed to be a representation or warranty by us with respect to any Third Party Materials. We have no obligation to monitor Third Party Materials, and we may (but are not obligated to) block or disable access to any Third Party Materials (in whole or part) through the Service at any time.

Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied or statutory, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

ALL DISCLAIMERS OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING IN THIS SECTION AND ELSEWHERE IN THESE TERMS OF USE) ARE MADE FOR THE BENEFIT OF BOTH US AND OUR AFFILIATES AND OUR AND THEIR RESPECTIVE SHAREHOLDERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AFFILIATES, AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES, LICENSORS, SUPPLIERS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS (COLLECTIVELY, THE "AFFILIATED ENTITIES"), AND THEIR RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The Service may include inaccuracies, errors and materials that violate or conflict with these Terms of Use. Additionally, third parties may make unauthorized alterations to the Service.

We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements, be available without interruption, be secure, or be free of errors, or that any content (including transcripts generated automatically) will be accurate or reliable.

We reserve the right to suspend, withdraw, block or discontinue your access to all or any part of our Service without notice. We will not be liable to you or any third party if for any reason our Service is unavailable at any time or for any period.

You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to our Service, including alternative arrangements if such access is unavailable.

You are also responsible for ensuring that all persons who access our Service through your internet connection are aware of these Terms of Use and other applicable terms and conditions, and that they comply with them.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Track Record and its directors, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages under any contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or other theory, or for any loss of profits, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to your use of, or inability to use, the Service. For clarity, if you reside in the United Kingdom, nothing in these Terms of Use excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury arising from our negligence, or our fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by English law.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will not exceed £100.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer that cannot be excluded or limited.

Viruses

We do not guarantee that our Service will be secure or free from malware or viruses. You are responsible for configuring your information technology, computer programmes and platform in order to access our Service. You should use your own virus and malware protection software.

You must not misuse our Service by knowingly introducing viruses, trojans, worms, logic bombs or other material, which is malicious or technologically harmful. You must not hack, disable, overburden or otherwise impair our Service. You must not attempt to gain unauthorised access to our Service, the server on which our Service is stored or any server, computer or database connected to our Service. You must not attack our Service via a denial-of-service attack or a distributed denial-of service attack. By breaching this provision, you would commit a criminal offence under the UK's Computer Misuse Act 1990 or, potentially, under similar laws in other jurisdictions. We reserve the right to report any such breach to the relevant law enforcement authorities and we will co-operate with those authorities by disclosing your identity to them. In the event of such a breach, your right to use our Service will cease immediately.

Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Track Record and its directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) Your Content; (b) your use of the Service; (c) your breach of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any rights of another person or entity.

Termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access as described in these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases. Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination — including ownership, licences granted to us, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnity — will survive.

Governing law and jurisdiction

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, these Terms of Service, and any dispute, claim, and/or controversy that in any way relates to or arises in connection with these Terms of Service or your relationship with us, are governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. You agree that the courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or through the Service before the changes take effect. The "Last updated" date indicates when these Terms were last revised. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Service.

General

All failure by us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and us and govern your use of our Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and us (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of these Term of Use). These Terms of Use are not intended to grant rights to anyone except you and us and in no event shall these Terms of Use create any third-party beneficiary rights. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of your rights or obligations under these Terms of Use without our express prior written consent. We may assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of our rights or obligations under these Terms of Use without restriction.
