**Last Updated: November 19th 2025

**1. Acceptance of Terms**
Hobbs Entertainment Group Worldwide LLC ("Hobbs Entertainment," "we," "us," or "our") provides the website solo2424.com (the "Site") and its related services, including the music creation platform and record label A&R portal (collectively, the "Services"). By accessing, browsing, or using the Services, you ("User," "you," or "your") acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Master Terms and Conditions ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Services.

**2. Definitions**
*   **"Platform"** refers to the Solo2424 music creation tools and software accessible via the Site.
*   **"User Content"** refers to any audio, musical works, recordings, or other material you create, upload, or stream using the Platform.
*   **"Master Recording" or "Master"** refers to the specific sound recording embodied in your User Content.
*   **"Submission"** occurs when you formally submit a Master Recording to Hobbs Entertainment for label consideration via the designated A&R portal on the Site.
*   **"Artist Recording Agreement"** refers to the separate, comprehensive contract governing the relationship between a signed artist and Hobbs Entertainment.

3. User Accounts and Registration**
You must register for an account to access certain features. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

**4. Services Description: Platform and Record Label**
Solo2424.com operates as a dual-purpose service:
*   **A.** **Music Creation Platform:** We provide tools for you to create User Content.
*   **B.** **Record Label A&R Portal:** We operate as a record label. The Services provide a channel for you to submit your Master Recordings to Hobbs Entertainment for potential signing, marketing, and distribution. Using the Platform does not make you an artist signed to Hobbs Entertainment.

**5. Intellectual Property Rights**
*   **A. Platform IP:** The Solo2424 Platform, including its software, design, trademarks, and all underlying technology, is the exclusive property of Hobbs Entertainment Group Worldwide LLC and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to use the Platform pursuant to these Terms.
*   **B. Your User Content (Pre-Submission):** You retain all ownership rights to your original User Content you create on the Platform *until* you make a Submission. However, to operate the Platform, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, and technically transmit your User Content solely for the purpose of providing the Services to you.
*   **C. Prohibited Use of Platform IP:** You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, or create derivative works of the Platform's source code. You may not use bots, scrapers, or other automated means to access or duplicate the Platform or its content. Any attempt to hack, disrupt, or overload the Platform is strictly prohibited.

**6. Submission Process & The Path to Becoming a Signed Artist**
*   **A. The Submission.** When you elect to submit a Master Recording to Hobbs Entertainment via the A&R portal, you will be required to accept a separate **Submission Agreement**. This Submission Agreement will govern the submission process and is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
*   **B. Option to Negotiate.** By submitting a Master, you grant Hobbs Entertainment an exclusive option for a period of 60 days from submission to evaluate your Master and negotiate an Artist Recording Agreement with you. During this 60-day period, you agree not to shop, license, or offer the submitted Master to any other record label or third party for commercial release.
*   **C. No Obligation.** Hobbs Entertainment makes no guarantee that it will offer you an Artist Recording Agreement. Our decision is final.
*   **D. The Artist Recording Agreement.** If Hobbs Entertainment decides to offer you a contract, the relationship will be governed solely by the negotiated **Artist Recording Agreement**. That agreement will supersede these Terms with respect to the exploitation of your signed Master(s). It will detail key terms such as royalty splits, advances, term, territory, and marketing commitments.

**7. Commercial Rights and Monetization**
*   **A. Standard Users (Non-Submitting):** If you use the Platform without making a Submission, you may use your User Content for personal, non-commercial purposes only (e.g., sharing on personal social media). You are expressly prohibited from commercially exploiting, monetizing, or distributing this User Content through any channels (e.g., digital stores, sync licensing, radio).
*   **B. Signed Artists:** Upon full execution of an Artist Recording Agreement, Hobbs Entertainment will have the exclusive right to exploit, market, and distribute your signed Master Recordings worldwide through all major digital distribution channels (e.g., iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Music), social media monetization platforms (e.g., TikTok, Instagram, YouTube), and physical formats (e.g., vinyl, cassette). Royalties and reporting will be governed by your individual Artist Recording Agreement.

**8. User Representations and Warranties**
You represent and warrant that:
*   Your User Content is your original creation and does not infringe upon the copyright, trademark, privacy, or other rights of any third party.
*   You have the full right and authority to grant the licenses and rights set forth in these Terms.
*   Your User Content is not defamatory, obscene, or unlawful.

**9. Termination**
We may suspend or terminate your account and access to the Services at our sole discretion, without notice, for conduct we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties. Upon termination, your license to use the Platform ceases immediately.

**10. Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation of Liability**

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HOBBS ENTERTAINMENT DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.
