Content & Rights Policy

Your rights.
Our responsibilities.

Last updated: June 22, 2025

1. Who we are

Discover Streaming is a music streaming platform operated by ON-SET™. We host music uploaded by independent artists using Discover for Artists and make it available to listeners free of charge. Our registered contact address is hello@discoverstreaming.com.

2. Content ownership

Artists own their music. When an artist publishes to Discover Streaming, they grant ON-SET™ a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, and stream that content for the purpose of operating the platform. This licence exists only while the content is published. Unpublishing an album removes it from the platform and ends the licence.

Discover Streaming does not claim ownership of, or rights to, any music, artwork, or other content uploaded by artists. We do not sell, licence, or sub-licence artist content to third parties.

3. What artists agree to when publishing

By publishing content to Discover Streaming, the artist confirms that:

  • They own or have the right to distribute the content they are uploading.
  • The content does not infringe the copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights of any third party.
  • They have obtained any necessary clearances for samples, features, cover art, and other third-party material included in their release.
  • They are not publishing content that is unlawful, defamatory, or harmful.

Artists remain solely responsible for ensuring they have the rights to everything they upload.

4. Listener rights and what we will not do

Discover Streaming is free to use. You do not pay to listen, and we will not introduce a paid listener tier without advance notice and the ability to opt out.

  • We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
  • We do not run advertising on the listening experience.
  • We do not restrict playback based on geography or region.
  • We do not limit how many times you can play a track.
  • We will tell you clearly if any of this changes, before it changes.

5. Copyright infringement — DMCA takedown procedure

If you believe that content on Discover Streaming infringes your copyright, you may submit a takedown notice to us. To be valid, your notice must include:

  1. A description of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed.
  2. A description of the content on Discover Streaming you believe is infringing, including the URL or album title.
  3. Your contact information (name, email address, and postal address).
  4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the content is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  5. A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on their behalf.
  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

Send notices to: hello@discoverstreaming.com with subject line "DMCA Takedown", or use the contact form.

We review all valid notices and act on them within 48 hours. Where content is removed, we notify the artist who uploaded it and provide them the opportunity to submit a counter-notice if they believe the takedown was made in error.

6. Counter-notices

If your content was removed following a takedown notice and you believe the removal was incorrect, you may submit a counter-notice. A valid counter-notice must include:

  1. Identification of the content that was removed and its location on the platform before removal.
  2. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the content was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  3. Your name, email, and postal address.
  4. Your physical or electronic signature.

Send counter-notices to: hello@discoverstreaming.com with subject "DMCA Counter-Notice".

7. Repeat infringement

Discover Streaming will terminate the accounts of artists who are found to be repeat infringers. We reserve the right to remove content and suspend or terminate accounts where there is credible evidence of infringement, without waiting for a formal takedown notice.

8. Privacy and data

We collect the minimum information necessary to operate the platform:

  • Listeners: Email address, username, saved albums, and play history (used to show you what you have listened to).
  • Artists: Email address, artist name, uploaded audio files, cover art, and aggregate play counts.

We do not sell this data. We do not use it for advertising. Play counts are aggregated and visible to the artist whose music was played. Individual listener data is not shared with artists.

To request deletion of your account and all associated data, send an email to hello@discoverstreaming.com with subject "Delete My Account". We will process your request within 30 days.

9. Platform availability

We aim to keep Discover Streaming available but we do not guarantee uninterrupted service. We may take the platform down for maintenance, updates, or in the event of a significant technical or legal issue. We will provide notice where possible.

We reserve the right to shut down or significantly change the platform. If we do so, we will give artists at least 30 days notice so they can retrieve their content before removal.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, for material changes, notify users by email. Continued use of the platform after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
