You will be granted a
- worldwide
- royalty-free
license to use sounds uploaded to the freesound project AND owned by digifishmusic in commercial or non-commercial applications provided you comply with all of the following (it's not hard, no need to breach copyright!):
1. Make sure digifishmusic has copyright ownership: I can only grant the above license for sounds that I own. To check, make sure the sound is not tagged as a remix (A remix may include the work of other freesound authors). Additionally, ensure that the downloaded file name has '_digifishmusic_' in it.
2. Let me know: Contact me and let me know how you will use the sound (use the message link below). This step is both a courtesy and condition. My reply will serve as copyright clearance documentation for your project.
3. If the work has credits: [insert direct link to sound] was served by The Freesound Project and produced by digifishmusic.
4. Not allowed: You may not re-sell the sound singularly or as part of a sample library, in a similar/competing product or re-host them on another web-site with the aim of serving them for use by others or sale to others. In other words, I expect you will be using digifishmusic sounds creatively in (but not limited to): multimedia works, film, TV, video, music compositions, radio, live performances, art installations, in computer software, in product firmware, on web pages as embellishment of content. Not just re-selling/re-serving them.
5. Copyright and automated content identification: I expressly forbid any of my work/s or derivative works being registered with any content publishing system including, but not limited to, CDBaby, Beatchain, Distrokid, Ditto Music, RouteNote, Tablo, TuneCore or similar. These platforms cause nuisance Content ID, DMCA & Copyright strikes, particularly on YouTube.
NOTES: The Creative Commons Freesound requirements are a sub-set of the above conditions, by complying with them you will also comply with The Freesound Project Creative Commons requirements associated with digifishmusic sounds. I upload these sounds to be used. Yes you can make money using them, my reward is simply to know how they are being used and that both Freesound and I are credited (if possible).
It is advised that you keep a copy of this text and any receipt of email acknowledgement from me, for your records associated with the project and use of digifishmusic sounds.
