Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of CritikHub, including our website, products, and services. By creating an account, browsing public content, or using any part of the platform, you agree to these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must stop using CritikHub immediately. Additional guidelines, policies, and feature-specific conditions may apply to certain services and are incorporated into these Terms by reference.

You must be at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction, or have legally valid parental/guardian consent, to use CritikHub. You are responsible for ensuring your use complies with all applicable local laws.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity under your account. You must provide accurate account information and promptly update it if it changes.

CritikHub supports multiple user roles, including listeners, artists, and approved Critiks. Access to role-specific features may require additional verification, review, or approval by CritikHub.

Approved Critiks are expected to follow editorial and community standards. Artists and creators remain responsible for the content they submit and the rights attached to that content.

You retain ownership of content you upload or submit, including music, videos, profile details, and comments. By submitting content, you grant CritikHub a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, display, distribute, and process that content for platform operations.

You represent and warrant that you own the content you submit or have all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions to submit it. You are solely responsible for any claims related to your submitted content.

CritikHub provides music critik and editorial analysis for informational and entertainment purposes. Scores and opinions published by Critiks reflect individual editorial judgment and do not represent objective fact.

CritikHub reserves the right to moderate, edit, remove, or decline content that violates our standards, including content that is abusive, deceptive, defamatory, or otherwise harmful to platform integrity.

You agree not to misuse CritikHub or engage in behavior that disrupts, harms, or compromises the platform, its users, or its systems.

Except for user-submitted content, all platform materials, including trademarks, branding, editorial formatting, software, and design elements, are owned by CritikHub or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or create derivative works from CritikHub materials without prior written authorization, except as permitted by law.

If CritikHub offers paid features, subscription services, or promotional tools, you agree to the pricing, billing terms, and renewal conditions disclosed at the time of purchase. Fees are non-refundable except where required by law or expressly stated otherwise.

CritikHub may change pricing, feature availability, or monetization structures with reasonable notice. Continued use of paid features after such changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

CritikHub may include links to third-party websites, tools, or platforms. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, policies, or practices.

Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms and policies. You access such services at your own risk.

CritikHub is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

We do not guarantee uninterrupted service, error-free operation, or that the platform will meet your specific expectations. You use the platform at your own discretion and risk.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CritikHub and its affiliates, officers, employees, and partners will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of the platform.

Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability for any claim will be limited to the amount you paid to CritikHub for the applicable service in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless CritikHub and its affiliates from and against claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the platform, your content, or your violation of these Terms.

CritikHub may suspend or terminate access to your account at any time if we reasonably believe you violated these Terms, posed a security risk, or caused harm to users or the platform.

You may stop using CritikHub at any time. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations, and indemnities, remain in effect.

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect product updates, legal requirements, or operational changes. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date and provide notice where appropriate.

Your continued use of CritikHub after updated Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of those revised Terms.

These Terms are governed by and construed under applicable laws in the jurisdiction where CritikHub operates, without regard to conflict of law principles, except where mandatory law provides otherwise.

Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the platform will be resolved in competent courts of that jurisdiction unless otherwise required by applicable law.

If you have questions about these Terms, account concerns, or legal notices, contact the CritikHub team through our contact page.
