Welcome to The Scene! We built this platform to connect you with incredible, human-made music using the power of AI discovery. By creating a Fan account and using The Scene (the "Service"), which is operated by The Scene LLC (a subsidiary of CSCD LLC), you agree to be bound by these Terms.

01

Your License to Listen (Personal, Non-Commercial Use Only)

We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, and non-transferable license to use The Scene for your own personal listening and discovery.

  • No Commercial Broadcasting: The Service is strictly for consumer use. You may not broadcast, publicly perform, or play The Scene in a commercial or public establishment (e.g., coffee shops, bars, restaurants, retail stores, gyms).
  • Venue Liability & Indemnification: If you choose to ignore this rule and broadcast the Service in a commercial space, you are solely responsible for securing all required public performance licenses (e.g., ASCAP, BMI, SESAC). Furthermore, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless The Scene LLC and CSCD LLC from any fines, legal fees, or lawsuits brought by third-party rights organizations resulting from your unauthorized commercial broadcast.
  • No Ripping or AI Scraping: You may not download, rip, screen-record, or use automated bots, spiders, or scrapers to extract audio data, metadata, or code from our platform to train outside AI models or for any other purpose.
02

How Our AI "Vibe Search" Works

The Scene uses advanced artificial intelligence to help you discover music. When you type a search prompt (e.g., "Build me a late-night rainy jazz playlist"), you agree that we will process that text through our enterprise AI partners to query our database.

Your Data is Protected

You own your search prompts, but you grant us a license to process them to provide the Service. Because we utilize enterprise-grade API agreements, your personal search history is completely walled off and is not used to train public foundational AI models.

03

The Community Rules (Zero Tolerance for Hate)

The Scene is about human connection through music. Hate speech, harassment, bullying, and toxic rhetoric are strictly prohibited.

No Appeal

We reserve the right to immediately suspend or permanently expel you from the platform if we determine you are not a good community member. There is no appeal process for hate speech.

04

Account Security & Purchases

You are responsible for keeping your password secure. If you choose to financially support an artist, buy merchandise, or subscribe, payments are processed securely through our third-party providers (e.g., Stripe).

Purchases

We do not store your financial data. All digital sales are final.

05

Termination of Service

You can delete your Fan account at any time. We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your access to the Service at any time, for any reason, without notice.

06

Limitation of Liability & Governing Law

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Scene LLC, its parent company CSCD LLC, and our partners are not liable for any lost data, app downtime, or indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.

Liability Cap

Our total liability to you arising from your use of the app shall not exceed $100.00 USD. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
