This site (together with any successor site(s), the “Portal”) is operated by Warner Music Inc. on behalf of its affiliates and distributed labels (“Warner”, “we”, “us”, “our” and other similar pronouns). Your use of the Portal is governed by these Terms of Use (this “Agreement”), regardless of how you access the Portal (including through the Internet, through Wireless Access Protocol (commonly referred to as “WAP”), through a mobile network or otherwise). “You” means any individual who accesses or uses the Portal, as well as any organization, artist or group on whose behalf you are acting. This Agreement is between you and us.

Our privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) is part of and incorporated into these Terms of Use (the Privacy Policy and Terms of Use are together sometimes referred to as the “Terms”) and applies to your use of the Portal. Please review the Privacy Policy

  1. Acceptance of Terms. By using the Portal, you agree to the terms of this Agreement and to any additional rules and guidelines that we post on the Portal. If you do not wish to be bound or if you are not certain you can comply with the Terms of Use, please exit the Portal immediately. The Portal and your use thereof shall in no way operate to alter your contractual relationship with Warner, its affiliates or distributed labels or the amount of royalties to which you may be entitled.

    By using the Portal, you represent and warrant that you are legally able to accept this Agreement. Any person under the age of 18 must only access the Portal when accompanied by and with the consent of a parent or guardian who is at least 18 years of age. If you are using the Portal on behalf of any entity, you further represent and warrant that you are authorized to accept this Agreement on such entity’s behalf, and that such entity agrees to indemnify Warner for violations of the Agreement. The Portal is only available for authorized users upon an invitation by Warner and is not intended for use by the general public.

  2. Purpose of the Portal. The purpose of the Portal is to offer those artists or other persons with whom Warner and its affiliates and distributed labels have royalty contracts (together, “Royaltors”) and, as applicable, such Royaltors’ authorized representatives, a convenient way to access information related to their royalty statement earnings, balances and additional Warner related financial details. The Portal is intended only for use by such Royaltors and their authorized representative and no other use of the Portal is authorized by Warner. You agree you will not use or permit another to use the Portal for any other purpose. All rights not expressly granted to you under this Agreement are reserved by Warner.

  3. Jurisdiction. The Portal is controlled and/or operated from the United States, however it is intended for Royaltors around the world. If you are a Royaltor from outside the United States, please note that any information used or provided to us in connection with the Portal may be processed and stored by Warner within the U.S. By using the Portal you agree to the transfer, use and disclosure of your information as set forth herein. The Portal may not be appropriate or available for use in some jurisdictions outside of the United States. If you access the Portal, you do so at your own risk, and you are responsible for complying with all local laws, rules and regulations. We may limit the Portal's availability, in whole or in part, to any person, geographic area or jurisdiction we choose, at any time and in our sole discretion

  4. Portal Content. While we endeavor to ensure the accuracy of the information available on the Portal and your account information, there may be clerical errors, omissions or incorrect or outdated information on the Portal from time to time. We reserve the right to correct any such errors, omissions or incorrect or outdated information as and when they are identified by us. You agree to bear all risk associated with the use of the Portal, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any content, information or materials made available through the Portal.

  5. Registration and Use Rules. In order to access the Portal, you will receive an invitation with a one-time unique ID, which will prompt you to step through the onboarding process. You will be asked to create a password and provide a secondary cell phone or email address. You will receive a message to such email providing you with this Agreement. By completing your user profile, you agree to this Agreement. You will need to use your email and a password in order to log into the Portal and access your account records. At any time, we may reject, or require that you change, any user name, password or other information that you provide to us in registering.

    You hereby agree to the following pertaining to Portal registration, use of your Portal login information and use of the Portal:

    • You agree to only use the Portal for the purpose of accessing and reviewing the royalty earnings of the person or entity at issue.

    • You agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the applicable registration form, and you are responsible for keeping such information up-to-date (this includes your contact information, so that we can reliably contact you). The information you submit must describe you (you may not impersonate another person or entity), and you may not sell, share or otherwise transfer your account information.

    • Your user name and password are for your personal use or your authorized agents use on your behalf only and should be kept confidential at all times. You agree you will not reveal your login details to anyone aside from your authorized agents.

    • You are responsible for any and all use of your user name and password or activities that occur under your account.

    • You agree to promptly notify us of any actual or suspected confidentiality breach or unauthorized use of your user name and password, or your Portal account. You must do so by contacting us at 877-343-7784 or PortalUserSupport@wmg.com.

    • If the relationship between you and an authorized representative is terminated, you should change your password and your two step authentication information immediately (i.e., secondary email address and phone number).

    • If you are a representative acting on behalf of several Royaltors, and you are no longer authorized to access the Portal on behalf of one of those Royaltors, you must notify us immediately.

    • You will not save your password or user name on any software or browser which retains it automatically. Your devices must be secure, so that someone using your device cannot log into the Portal solely through stored details and without entering additional unique login information.

    • Log off of the Portal at the end of any session and before leaving any device you are logged in from unattended. Do not save or download statements on shared or public computers.

    • You shall take all precautions to prevent the use of the Portal by unauthorized persons.
