Terms & Conditions – whatsupworld

At the moment we only sell beats which are regulated by the licenses. In exchange for their purchase, we will provide our customers with a license agreement. A document that grants our customers certain user rights to create and distribute a song or project.

Non-exclusive licenses have a limitation on sales, plays, streams or views. The license will also need to be renewed as soon as the customer reached the maximum amount of streams or plays.

As you see we offer you different types of licenses which have different limitations depending on what license YOU NEED.

When you click at the “View Contract”-button you can find the detailed terms 6 conditions of the licenses.

If a customer whats exclusive rights for his project, he/she is able to send us an offer. For exclusive rights there are no exact terms & conditions because they depend on the customers wishes.
