Audio Production Services (Mixing, Mastering & Related Work)

This section governs any Services performed by the Company on Client Materials, including mixing, mastering, editing, and related production work. It supplements — and where in conflict, controls over — the general "Placing Orders for Goods" provisions below, which apply to physical and digital Goods rather than Services.

Engagement and Scope of Work

  • The scope of Services, project fee, and estimated turnaround time will be communicated to You directly (by email, invoice, or project agreement) prior to commencement of work. That communication, together with these Terms, forms the agreement for the specific project.

  • Estimated turnaround times are provided in good faith but are not guaranteed. Turnaround times may be affected by the volume of work in queue, the condition and completeness of Client Materials, and the timeliness of Your feedback.

  • The Company reserves the right to decline or discontinue a project at its discretion, including for content that is unlawful, infringing, or that the Company otherwise declines to work on, in which case any unearned fees paid in advance for work not yet performed will be refunded.

Client Materials

  • You are solely responsible for providing complete, organized, and usable Client Materials (stems, session files, reference tracks, and any relevant notes) in a timely manner. Delays caused by incomplete, corrupted, or late-delivered Client Materials will extend the estimated turnaround time accordingly and are not the responsibility of the Company.

  • You represent and warrant that You own or otherwise control all necessary rights in the Client Materials, and that the Company's use of the Client Materials to perform the Services will not infringe the rights of any third party. You agree to indemnify the Company against any claims arising from a breach of this warranty.

  • The Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to safeguard Client Materials and Deliverables, but is not a backup service. You are responsible for maintaining Your own backup copies of all Client Materials sent to Us. The Company will retain project session files and Client Materials for a period of 90 days following delivery of final Deliverables, after which they may be deleted without further notice. Archival storage beyond this period may be available upon request and may incur an additional fee.

Revisions

  • Each Service engagement includes the number of revision rounds specified at the time of quote or invoice (or, absent a specific number, up to two (2) rounds of revisions per track).

  • Revision requests must be submitted within 14 days of delivery of the relevant Deliverable. Requests submitted after this window, or revisions requested beyond the included number of rounds, may be billed at the Company's then-current hourly or per-revision rate.

  • Revisions are limited to adjustments within the scope of the original brief (e.g., level, tonal, or balance changes). Requests that materially change the scope of the project (e.g., new instrumentation, restructuring, additional songs) will be treated as a new or expanded engagement and quoted separately.

Ownership and Rights

  • You retain all ownership of the underlying musical composition and sound recording contained in Your Client Materials. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of Your music, masters, or associated intellectual property to the Company.

  • By engaging the Company for Services, You grant the Company a limited, non-exclusive license to reproduce, process, and modify the Client Materials solely as necessary to perform the Services.

  • Unless You notify the Company in writing that You wish to opt out, You grant the Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use short excerpts of the Deliverables (or reference to the finished project, such as artist/track name) in the Company's portfolio, website, social media, and promotional materials. You may revoke this license for future use at any time by written request, though the Company is not obligated to remove promotional material already published prior to such request.

  • Deliverables are provided to You upon full payment of all fees due for the applicable engagement. The Company reserves the right to withhold final Deliverables until payment is received in full.

Payment, Cancellation, and Refunds for Services

  • Services may require a deposit prior to the commencement of work, with the remaining balance due upon completion or delivery of final Deliverables, as specified in Your project quote or invoice.

  • Deposits are non-refundable once work has commenced, as they secure Your place in the Company's project queue and compensate for time reserved.

  • If You cancel a project before work has commenced, any deposit paid will be refunded, less any payment processing fees already incurred by the Company.

  • If You cancel a project after work has commenced but before completion, the Company will invoice You for time and work already performed, and any remaining balance of the deposit (if applicable) will be refunded.

  • Once final Deliverables have been completed and delivered in accordance with the agreed scope, fees for the Services are non-refundable. This reflects the labor-based, already-rendered nature of the Services (as distinct from the return of physical or digital Goods).

  • Nothing in this section limits Your rights where Services are not performed substantially in accordance with the agreed scope; in such cases, please contact Us to resolve the issue in accordance with the Disputes Resolution section below.

Digital Products (Sample Packs, Presets & Similar Goods)

This section applies to sample packs, presets, loop kits, and other digital audio products ("Digital Products") sold through the Service, in addition to the general "No Refund Policy for Digital Downloads" provisions below.

License Grant

  • Upon purchase, You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the contents of the Digital Product (samples, loops, one-shots, presets, and similar assets) in Your own original musical productions, whether for personal or commercial release, subject to the restrictions below.

  • You may not: (i) resell, redistribute, sublicense, or share the raw, unaltered files contained in a Digital Product, whether for free or for payment, individually or as part of another sample pack or product; (ii) claim authorship or ownership of the raw, unprocessed samples or presets themselves; or (iii) use the raw, unprocessed samples or presets in a way that is competitive with the Company's sale of the same or substantially similar Digital Product.

  • You may use the Digital Products, once incorporated into Your own original musical work, in commercial releases, streaming platforms, sync licensing, and live performance without additional royalty payments to the Company, unless otherwise stated in the product listing at time of purchase.

  • The Company retains all ownership and intellectual property rights in the Digital Products themselves; purchase of a license does not transfer ownership of the underlying content.

Delivery and Refunds

  • Digital Products are delivered electronically and made available for download immediately (or shortly after) purchase.

  • As stated in the No Refund Policy for Digital Downloads below, all sales of Digital Products are final once the download link has been provided or accessed, except where a technical issue prevents access — see that section for details.

Placing Orders for Goods

By placing an Order for Goods through the Service, You warrant that You are legally capable of entering into binding contracts.

If You wish to place an Order for Goods available on the Service, You may be asked to supply certain information relevant to Your Order, including without limitation Your name, email, phone number, credit card number, the expiration date of Your credit card, Your billing address, and Your shipping information.

You represent and warrant that: (i) You have the legal right to use any credit or debit card(s) or other payment method(s) in connection with any Order; and (ii) the information You supply to Us is true, correct, and complete.

By submitting such information, You grant Us the right to provide the information to payment processing third parties for purposes of facilitating the completion of Your Order.

Order Cancellation

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel Your Order at any time for certain reasons, including but not limited to:

  • Goods availability

  • Errors in the description or prices for Goods

  • Errors in Your Order

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel Your Order if fraud or an unauthorized or illegal transaction is suspected.

Order Cancellation Rights (Physical Goods)

Any physical Goods You purchase can only be returned in accordance with these Terms and Our Returns Policy, which forms a part of these Terms.

Your right to cancel an Order applies only to physical Goods returned in the same condition as You received them, including all instructions, documents, and original packaging. Goods that are damaged, altered, or not in the same condition as received will not be refunded. You should take reasonable care of purchased Goods while in Your possession.

We will reimburse You no later than 14 days from the day We receive the returned Goods, using the same means of payment as You used for the Order, at no fee to You.

You will not have any right to cancel an Order for the supply of:

  • Goods made to Your specifications or clearly personalized;

  • Goods which, by their nature, are not suitable to be returned, deteriorate rapidly, or where the expiry date has passed;

  • Goods unsuitable for return for health protection or hygiene reasons that were unsealed after delivery;

  • Goods which are, after delivery, inseparably mixed with other items;

  • Digital content not supplied on a tangible medium where performance has begun with Your prior express consent and acknowledgment of loss of cancellation right (see below).

No Refund Policy for Digital Downloads

All sales of Digital Products (sample packs, presets, and other digital download products) are final. Because these Goods are delivered electronically and made immediately accessible upon purchase, We do not offer refunds, exchanges, or cancellations once a digital product has been purchased and the download link has been provided.

By completing a purchase of any Digital Product, You acknowledge and agree that:

  • You have read and understood the product description and any included preview/demo prior to purchase.

  • Digital Products cannot be "returned" once the file has been downloaded or the download link has been accessed.

  • No refunds will be issued for accidental purchases, change of mind, or failure to use the downloaded product.

  • If a technical issue prevents You from accessing or downloading a purchased file, You must contact Us within 7 days of purchase at ironaudiorecordings@gmail.com so We may assist in resolving the issue.

Availability, Errors and Inaccuracies

We are constantly updating Our offerings of Goods and Services on the Service. Goods and Services may be mispriced, described inaccurately, or unavailable, and We may experience delays in updating information on the Service or in Our advertising on other websites.

We cannot and do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information, including prices, product images, specifications, availability, and services. We reserve the right to change or update information and to correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time without prior notice.

Prices Policy

The Company reserves the right to revise its prices at any time prior to accepting an Order.

Prices quoted may be revised subsequent to accepting an Order in the event of an occurrence affecting delivery caused by government action, variation in customs duties, increased shipping charges, higher foreign exchange costs, or any other matter beyond the control of the Company. In that event, You will have the right to cancel Your Order (subject to the service-specific cancellation terms above, where applicable).

Payments

Goods and Services purchased are subject to payment through the methods available on the Service, such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or online payment methods (e.g., PayPal).

Payment cards are subject to validation checks and authorization by Your card issuer. If We do not receive the required authorization, We will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery of Your Order.

Promotions

Any Promotions made available through the Service may be governed by rules separate from these Terms. If You participate in any Promotions, please review the applicable rules as well as Our Privacy Policy. If Promotion rules conflict with these Terms, the Promotion rules will apply.

User Accounts

When You create an account with Us, You must provide accurate, complete, and current information at all times. Failure to do so constitutes a breach of these Terms, which may result in immediate termination of Your account.

You are responsible for safeguarding the password used to access the Service and for any activities under Your password. You agree not to disclose Your password to any third party and to notify Us immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of Your account.

You may not use as a username the name of another person or entity not lawfully available for use, a name or trademark subject to rights of another party without authorization, or a name that is offensive, vulgar, or obscene.

The Service and its original content (excluding Client Materials and other content provided by You or other users), features, and functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of the Company and its licensors, except as expressly set out in the Audio Production Services and Digital Products sections above.

The Service is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of both the Country and foreign countries. Our trademarks and trade dress may not be used in connection with any product or service without the Company's prior written consent.

Your Feedback to Us

You assign all rights, title, and interest in any Feedback You provide the Company. If such assignment is ineffective for any reason, You grant the Company a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide right and license to use, reproduce, disclose, sub-license, distribute, modify, and exploit such Feedback without restriction.

Our Service may contain links to third-party websites or services not owned or controlled by the Company. The Company has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites. You further acknowledge that the Company shall not be responsible or liable for any damage or loss caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any such content, goods, or services.

Upon termination, Your right to use the Service ceases immediately. If You wish to terminate Your Account, You may simply discontinue using the Service. Termination does not affect any fees already earned by the Company for Services performed prior to termination.

Limitation of Liability

Notwithstanding any damages You might incur, the entire liability of the Company and its suppliers under any provision of these Terms, and Your exclusive remedy, shall be limited to the amount actually paid by You through the Service for the specific Goods or Services giving rise to the claim, or 100 USD if You have not purchased anything through the Service.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Company or its suppliers be liable for any special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages whatsoever (including damages for loss of profits, loss of data, business interruption, or personal injury) arising out of or related to the use of or inability to use the Service, even if advised of the possibility of such damages and even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.

Some states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages; in such states, each party's liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

"AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" Disclaimer

The Service (including Services performed) is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE," with all faults and defects, without warranty of any kind, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The Company disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Company makes no representation or warranty that: (i) the Service or Deliverables will meet Your subjective creative expectations; (ii) the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free; (iii) any information or content provided through the Service is accurate, reliable, or current; or (iv) the Service, its servers, content, or emails are free of viruses or other harmful components.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties; in such cases, exclusions and limitations in this section shall apply to the greatest extent enforceable under applicable law.

Waiver. Except as provided herein, failure to exercise a right or require performance of an obligation under these Terms shall not affect a party's ability to exercise such right or require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall waiver of a breach constitute waiver of any subsequent breach.
