These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a binding legal agreement between you and 81 Collection LLC ("we", "us", or "Placements") governing your access to and use of the Placements website, subscription service, and related tools (the "Service"). By creating an account, activating a license key, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
Please read carefully. Section 14 contains a binding arbitration clause and a class-action waiver that affect your legal rights. You have a limited right to opt out as described in Section 14(f).
Placements is a lookup tool for music industry professionals. When you submit an artist name and release title, the Service queries publicly accessible web pages and public metadata APIs operated by third-party music streaming platforms (including Apple Music and Spotify) and returns to you a list of public playlists on which that release appears, along with its position on each playlist. The Service reports publicly available facts in response to user queries. It does not stream, download, host, mirror, cache at scale, index for resale, or redistribute any sound recording, composition, lyrics, album artwork, or other copyrighted content. Thumbnail images of playlist covers, where shown, are loaded directly from the originating platform's public CDN into the user's browser for identification purposes only and are never stored or served by us.
Placements is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, endorsed by, or connected to Apple Inc., Spotify AB, or any other music streaming platform. References to "Apple Music," "Spotify," and similar marks are made solely to identify the platforms from which publicly available data is queried. Such use is nominative fair use under applicable trademark law: it is necessary to identify the subject of the lookup, uses only as much of the mark as is required for that purpose, and does not suggest sponsorship or endorsement. All third-party trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, cover art, track titles, artist names, and playlist names are the property of their respective owners.
A track title, an artist name, a playlist name, and a track's position on a playlist are facts. Under Feist Publications v. Rural Telephone Service, 499 U.S. 340 (1991), facts are not subject to copyright protection. The Service surfaces these facts from public sources at the user's request. The Service does not claim any copyright interest in those facts, nor does it copy, reproduce, or redistribute any protected creative expression from the underlying platforms.
By using the Service you represent and warrant that:
The Service is offered in two subscription tiers: Standard at $59.99 USD per month, which includes up to 100 searches per calendar month (UTC); and Unlimited at $119.99 USD per month, which includes unrestricted searches subject to fair-use rate limits. Prices and quotas are those posted at checkout and may be updated with notice. All subscriptions are billed in advance by Lemon Squeezy, Inc. as merchant of record, and auto-renew each billing period until cancelled. You may cancel at any time via the Lemon Squeezy customer portal; cancellation stops future renewals and takes effect at the end of the current paid period. There is no partial-period refund for the current period. Refund requests are handled under Lemon Squeezy's Refund Policy. We are not responsible for fees or taxes collected by Lemon Squeezy.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms and timely payment of fees, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal or internal business purposes. All right, title, and interest in and to the Service (excluding third-party content) remain with us.
You may not, and may not permit anyone else to: (a) copy, modify, or create derivative works of the Service; (b) reverse-engineer or attempt to extract the source code; (c) resell, rent, lease, or provide the Service as a service bureau; (d) use the Service to violate any third party's rights or any law; (e) upload malware or interfere with the Service's integrity; (f) use bots, scripts, or automated means to place requests beyond documented rate limits; (g) misrepresent your identity or the source of requests; (h) use the Service to build a competing product.
Additional restrictions relating to Spotify Content and the Spotify Platform. You may not modify, create derivative works of, or otherwise alter the Spotify Platform, Spotify Service, or any Spotify Content accessed through the Service. You may not decompile, reverse-engineer, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to reduce the Spotify Platform, Spotify Service, or any Spotify Content to source code or any other human-perceivable form, to the full extent allowed by law.
Spotify as a third-party beneficiary. You acknowledge and agree that Spotify AB and its corporate affiliates are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and our Privacy Policy, and that Spotify is entitled to directly enforce the provisions of these Terms that apply to the Spotify Platform, the Spotify Service, or Spotify Content, including the restrictions in this Section 7, the disclaimers in Section 9, and the limitation of liability in Section 10. We do not make, and expressly disclaim, any warranties or representations on Spotify's behalf, and we expressly disclaim all implied warranties (including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement) with respect to the Spotify Platform, Spotify Service, and Spotify Content. You are solely responsible for your use of the Service; Spotify has no liability to you for your use of the Service.
We respect intellectual property rights. If you believe that material displayed on the Service infringes your copyright, please send a notice under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) to the email address below. The notice must include: (i) a physical or electronic signature of the rights holder or authorized agent; (ii) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; (iii) identification of the material you claim is infringing and information sufficient to locate it; (iv) your contact information; (v) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized; and (vi) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and you are authorized to act. Send notices to: alex@81collection.com with subject line "DMCA Notice." We will respond and, where appropriate, remove or disable access to the material. Repeat infringers will be terminated.
The service is provided "as is" and "as available." To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including without limitation implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, and quiet enjoyment. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, complete, current, or free of harmful components. You assume all risk from your use of the service and from reliance on its output.
To the maximum extent permitted by law: (a) in no event will we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenues, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, arising out of or relating to these terms or the service, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such damages; (b) our aggregate liability for any and all claims relating to the service will not exceed the greater of (i) the amount you paid us in the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (ii) one hundred u.s. dollars (usd $100).
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless 81 Collection LLC, its members, officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any law or third-party right, including any intellectual-property right; or (d) any content you submit.
We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, with or without notice, for any breach of these Terms, suspected fraud or abuse, non-payment, or if we discontinue the Service. Upon termination, your license ceases and sections intended to survive (9–16) will continue in effect.
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated version with a revised "Last updated" date. Material changes will be communicated via the Service or email to active subscribers. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
Before filing any claim, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting alex@81collection.com. We will try to resolve the dispute informally within thirty (30) days.
If informal resolution fails, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved exclusively by final, binding, individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, except as modified here. Arbitration will take place in Wilmington, Delaware, or via remote videoconference at the election of either party. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
You and we each agree that any dispute will be brought only in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding.
You and we each waive any right to a trial by jury.
Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring an individual action in small-claims court if the dispute qualifies, and either party may seek injunctive relief for actual or threatened infringement of intellectual-property rights.
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing alex@81collection.com with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" and including your name and the email associated with your subscription, within 30 days of your first activation. Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 14, any action not subject to arbitration must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New Castle County, Delaware, and each party consents to personal jurisdiction and venue there.
Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreement.
Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. We may assign freely.
Force Majeure. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events outside our reasonable control.
Relationship. No partnership, joint venture, or agency is created.
Survival. Sections 4, 6–11, and 14–16 survive any termination.
