License
Synchronization license. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, Endless Noise hereby grants to you for the term of this License (meaning during your active subscription), the right to access the Site and to make copies of the Licensed Works in order to synchronize them, in whole or in part, in video and podcast productions produced by or on behalf of yourself (your “Productions”). You may sub-license this right to independent production companies for the purpose of making Productions on your behalf. For the avoidance of doubt, any such sub-licenses may only be granted during, and be valid for, the term of this License. You remain solely responsible for any such sub-licensees’ use of the Licensed Works.
No standalone use. The purpose of this License is to make available for you the use of our music and sound effects in the background of your Productions in order to boost your own content. You may not make available, use or in any other way exploit the Licensed Works for the purpose of making the Licensed Works (in whole or in part) available on a standalone basis, hence without being synchronized with a Production in accordance with the purposes of this License, including where a Production is essentially tantamount to use of the Licensed Works on a standalone basis or where the Licensed Works constitute a primary value of the content that you create. By way of example, you may not use or in other way exploit the Licensed Works:
-
for the purpose of creating a music listening experience, including, but not limited to, uses where complete or almost complete Licensed Works, on its own or as part of a compilation, are combined with accompanying visual/narrative elements that are of subordinate importance (such as, but not limited to, still image(s), panning motions, loops or other limited animation/video/audio);
-
in any way to repackage the Licensed Works or upload or use them, in whole or in part, as audio samples, music or sound libraries, sound effects, music beds or to upload them in any music recognition systems for any purpose, and/or in any way use, distribute or otherwise exploit the Licensed Works as your property; or
-
in any way that is intended to allow third parties to download, reproduce, stream, and/or otherwise access or use the Licensed Works, in whole or in part, on a standalone basis, including without limitation in any digital templates or other applications enabling end users to synchronize or otherwise combine the Licensed Works with other content, or in any manner enabling users to create or order on-demand products (such as electronic greeting cards or ringtones) or make the Licensed Works available in any physical products (e.g. in speakers).
No illegal, immoral or political content. You may not use any Licensed Works in connection with any material or otherwise in a manner or context that is defamatory, illegal or inciteful of an illegal act; immoral; racist; hateful or discriminating against any person based on for example race, nationality, religion, ethnic identity, gender, gender identity or sexual orientation; constitutes encouragement of violence or use of weapons; pornographic; or in a manner or context that otherwise violates any rights of anyone associated with the Licensed Works. You shall comply with any applicable laws and regulations. Moreover, you may not use the Licensed Works in connection with sensitive subjects without the prior written consent of Endless Noise. Sensitive subjects include, but are not limited to, political content, such as the promotion, advertisement or endorsement of any party, candidate or elected official; and “adult videos” and promotion of adult entertainment venues, escort services, or the like.
No edits. You may cut, loop and fade in/out the Licensed Works, and you may use individual stems if and as made available to you, but you may not otherwise edit, alter, or change the Licensed Works, including but not limited to altering the fundamental character of the Licensed Works and creating any derivative works thereof (meaning that you may not create new music based on any Licensed Works).
Ineligible content. You are not allowed to use the Licensed Works in any broadcast type of content such as feature films and TV shows or TV ads, including documentaries, news, sports broadcasts or cartoons or other children shows. You are not allowed to use the Licensed Works in Productions distributed through subscription video on demand or streaming service platforms (e.g. Netflix, Hulu, Paramount+). If you’re looking to produce this type of content, please contact us directly (https://www.endlessnoise.com/contact). However, this restriction does not apply to non-commercial use of Student Work, as defined below.
No theme songs or trade marks. You may not use the Licensed Works as part of a theme song, logo, trademark or service mark.
No NFTs. You may not use the Licensed Works in non-fungible tokens (“NFTs”), blockchain or substantially equivalent technologies.
​
Distribution
Distribution license. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, Endless Noise hereby grants to you the right to make available any Productions containing any Licensed Works that you have completed during the term of this License worldwide on any and all online channels and platforms and in perpetuity with the exception of platforms outlined in the Ineligible Content section of this License. You may sub-license or transfer the rights to make available such Productions to any third party.
Where can I upload my Productions? The rights granted herein grant you the right to publish your Productions anywhere online, meaning on websites, on social media platforms and video sharing platforms, in apps, and anywhere else online with the exception of platforms outlined in the Ineligible Content section of this License. Conversely, you cannot make available your Productions “offline”, e.g. on linear television, including but not limited to broadcast, IPTV, cablecast, or satellite television, as theatrical releases, or (with the exceptions below relating to Student Work) make it available in a live setting (e.g. during a trade fair or event).
For how long is the license valid? You can use the Licensed Works to create new Productions for as long as you have an active subscription, and whatever Production you have completed during your subscription will remain licensed for you to use forever.
Student Work. If you are a student creating a non-commercial Production for an educational grade, or otherwise part of a course, with an accredited educational institution (“Student Work”), you may make available such Production in classrooms and during non-commercial film festivals.
Credits. Credit shall - to the extent reasonably possible, in relation to uses where it is standard practice to do so or if credits are provided for other music or content providers - be accorded in a form substantially similar in form and substance to the following: "Artist's Name / Title of Licensed Work / courtesy of www.endlessnoise.com”. The above credit will, if possible, be displayed as a hyperlink to www.endlessnoise.com.
Platform limitations. Please note that various platforms may have their own restrictions that apply from time to time, such as limitations on the permitted length of videos with music. As a result, even though you have been granted a license from Endless Noise to use the Licensed Works in accordance with the terms and conditions in this License, such platforms might limit how you exercise such rights on such platforms, and Endless Noise shall have no liability for such platform restrictions.
​
Monetization
Monetization. Subject to your compliance with this License, and proper clearing in accordance with the terms herein, you may allow, and receive remuneration from, the display of third-party ads in connection with making available your Productions on social media or other platforms such as YouTube offering such monetization opportunities (you may clear your Productions for monetization).
Clearing. You are responsible for clearing the Productions and/or relevant channels with Endless Noise, in accordance with the instructions that Endless Noise provides from time to time. You may clear a limited number of channels (“channels”) per platform, in accordance with the information provided to you when signing up. Endless Noise reserves the right to change the number of channels that can be cleared from time to time. In case Endless Noise lowers such limit, we will provide prior written notice of such change, and the lower limit will come into effect no earlier than the subsequent Subscription Period starting subsequent to such change. In addition to clearing these channels, you may clear a reasonable amount of video URLs outside of your own channels (e.g. Productions posted on your end clients’ channels).
Unlicensed and non-cleared use. Endless Noise reserves the right to fully monetize unlicensed use of the Licensed Works on YouTube and/or other platforms. Without correct clearing, Endless Noise is unable to tell a licensed Production from unlicensed use, and thus reserves the right to demonetize any Productions containing Licensed Works that are not correctly cleared. Should a Production licensed under this License be demonetized by Endless Noise, you may notify Endless Noise and Endless Noise will discontinue such demonetization without undue delay. Endless Noise will have no responsibility, and will not reimburse you, for any demonetization of Productions by Endless Noise for any period prior to such Productions having been correctly cleared for monetization. Please note that in relation to certain platforms, Endless Noise may use systems to correctly identify use of, or claim ownership of, the Licensed Works in content, including your Productions, uploaded to such platforms, e.g. to ensure correct attribution, but such identification does not affect your right to monetize your Productions on such platforms.
​
Fees
In consideration for the Service and the rights granted herein, you agree to pay any applicable Fees in accordance with the Terms of Use. Except as set forth in this License, no additional fees other than the Fees will be owed by you in relation to your permitted use of the Licensed Works hereunder, to (i) Endless Noise, (ii) any composer, performer, producer or other person involved in the creation of the Licensed Works or (iii) any collecting society except if the collection is exclusively delegated to such society by local statute, irrespective of the membership of, or any contractual mandate from, any of the composers, performers or other rights holders in the music.
​
Cancelation
This License shall enter into force upon your acceptance of the terms set forth herein and shall remain in force until terminated by you or us in accordance with the Terms of Use.
As mentioned above, you do not need to take down or otherwise withdraw any Productions published in accordance with this License, even after expiration of the term of this License. For clarity, however, after expiration or termination of this License you may not use the Licensed Work(s) to create any new Productions, including without limitation that you may not use the Licensed Work(s) to create any new versions of Productions, even if you have downloaded such Licensed Work(s) during the term of your License.
​
Outro
Amendments. Occasionally Endless Noise may, in its discretion, make amendments to the terms and conditions of this License. If Endless Noise makes amendments to this License that Endless Noise deems material for you, Endless Noise will notify you through the website and such changes will come into effect no earlier than the Subscription Period starting subsequent to such change. By continuing to use the License after changes to this License have been made you are expressing and acknowledging your acceptance of the changes.
No other rights. You may only use the Licensed Works under and subject to the rights granted under the terms and conditions of this License. All rights not expressly granted hereunder are reserved by Endless Noise. All rights and licenses granted hereunder are non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-assignable and may not be sub-licensed other than as expressly permitted under this License.

Endless Noise reserves the right to change the number of channels that can be cleared from time to time. In case Endless Noise lowers such limit, we will provide prior written notice of such change, and the lower limit will come into effect no earlier than the subsequent Subscription Period starting subsequent to such change. In addition to clearing these channels, you may clear a reasonable amount of video URLs outside of your own channels (e.g. Productions posted on your end clients’ channels).
Unlicensed and non-cleared use. Endless Noise reserves the right to fully monetize unlicensed use of the Licensed Works on YouTube and/or other platforms. Without correct clearing, Endless Noise is unable to tell a licensed Production from unlicensed use, and thus reserves the right to demonetize any Productions containing Licensed Works that are not correctly cleared. Should a Production licensed under this License be demonetized by Endless Noise, you may notify Endless Noise and Endless Noise will discontinue such demonetization without undue delay. Endless Noise will have no responsibility, and will not reimburse you, for any demonetization of Productions by Endless Noise for any period prior to such Productions having been correctly cleared for monetization. Please note that in relation to certain platforms, Endless Noise may use systems to correctly identify use of, or claim ownership of, the Licensed Works in content, including your Productions, uploaded to such platforms, e.g. to ensure correct attribution, but such identification does not affect your right to monetize your Productions on such platforms.
