Privacy / GDPR

This site’s privacy policy is simple, we only keep your details from the submit form, and an email is sent to us directly for a review of bands, and any comments you have posted.  We do not use it for direct marketing. We do not sell it to anyone.
If you feel that we have any data of yours, and want it changed or deleted, please feel free to contact us.

Music Use, Terms, and Conditions

Since internet law is ambiguous, in large part due to the web’s international nature, we at SFW Radio feel that it is very important to define our stance when it comes to intellectual property and its use in online media. We’ve given this matter much consideration and have composed the following terms, which we feel are fair to everyone involved. We hope that you feel that way, too.

​

Podcast refers to a specific type of broadcast, where the Work is incorporated into a file (which may contain one or more artists and/or other material) which may be played on a device capable of playing it, by individuals who have downloaded the file. Podcasts may also be streamed or incorporated into a collective stream or feed for delivery purposes. In these cases, the completed file, or episode, will not be altered.

These terms may change or be otherwise modified. All submissions will fall under the terms effective at the time of being received. An announcement post will be made if/when there is a policy change.

The agreement is straightforward, based on the Creative Commons framework, and outlined here.

If you send a submission, using any method, you effectively consent to the terms detailed below. If you don’t agree with the Terms of Use, don’t send anything.

For the purpose of the Terms of Use, “The Host” refers to SFW Radio, and subsidiary projects.

The artist recognizes and agrees to the following terms:

You are granting The Host permission to use the submitted content in its shows, make it available for download via its websites, stream via its online radio broadcasts, or anything else allowed within the scope of our license agreement.

​

Submitted content will not be returned. The artist retains all rights to the content, which will not be used by The Host in any manner if the artist isn’t featured on any of the shows. Audio and video files may be made and used by The Host but, only with the artist’s consent. The Host owns the right to the media produced.

As such, the shows can be distributed as deemed fit, whether via downloads, streaming media or some other technological wonder that has yet to be invented. Audio files may not be used outside of this context without the expressed consent of the artist.

No royalties or fees will be paid to the artist (or collection company on their behalf – PRS, BMI, ASCAP etc) by The Host for the use of their content in the context of the already defined terms, neither in the present nor retroactively. This is a quid pro quo arrangement: free music in exchange for free publicity.

The artist has no creative control over the podcast. Once the content is podcasted or otherwise archived, removal of said content is solely at the discretion of The Host. We will, however, negotiate in good faith ‘cos that’s the kind of people we are.

 

The Host recognizes and agrees to the following terms:

The Host will respect all Artist requests to terminate the Agreement, except if it applies to previous broadcasts or released podcasts. If asked to not use submitted material in future podcasts, we won’t.

The Host will respect the artistic integrity of the submissions. Content will not be altered apart from editorial purposes, such as using unmodified sections of a bio, or adjusting the size of an image file. Audio files will not be mashed-up, remixed, sliced, diced, distributed outside the context of the shows, except as outlined above and in our Agreement, or otherwise tampered with unless given expressed permission by the artist.

The Host will respect the intellectual property rights of the artist.

The Host will respect ways listeners buy your music through the site – Any links to the tracks are through to your iTunes and Amazon links, and direct to your site – making you the money not us.

If you require further clarification regarding any of these terms, please don’t hesitate to ask!
In essence, we love music, and if you want to give it to us to play on the shows, that’s great. We’re promoting your wares to people who might not have heard of you before, especially on the other side of the world. We will not ruin your tunes, it’s your music.
