Complete End-User Licence Agreement (EULA)

Introduction

This Licence Agreement (the “Agreement”) is a legal contract between you (the “Licensee” or “you”) and Creative Nevada Limited, trading as Freshly Squeezed Samples (the “Licensor”, “us”, “we”, or “our”). This Agreement governs your use of any digital products downloaded or purchased from Freshly Squeezed Samples or its authorized distributors.

By purchasing, downloading, or using any Freshly Squeezed Samples product, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, do not purchase, download, or use our products.

1. Definitions

“Products” means any and all digital content provided by Freshly Squeezed Samples, including but not limited to: audio samples and sound recordings; MIDI files and patterns; synth and instrument presets; effect presets (for reverbs, delays, EQs, compressors, and other audio processors); DAW templates, projects, and session files; educational content and instructional videos.

“Compositions” means musical, audio, or audiovisual works created by you that incorporate the Products.

“Commercial Use” means any use of Compositions for financial gain, including but not limited to physical or digital sales, streaming, performances, licensing, or any other commercial exploitation.

2. Licence Grant

2.1 Licence not sale. The Products are licensed, not sold, to you for use in accordance with this Agreement. We retain ownership of all intellectual property rights in the Products.

2.2 Licence scope. Subject to your payment of the applicable licence fee and compliance with this Agreement, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide licence to: use the Products in your Compositions for both personal and Commercial Use; modify, edit, and manipulate the Products to create derivative works as part of your Compositions; distribute, perform, broadcast, and sell your Compositions that incorporate the Products; use the Products in stock music libraries, production music, and other commercial music licensing platforms as part of your Compositions.

2.3 Royalty-free use. Your use of the Products within your Compositions is royalty-free. Once you have paid the licence fee, you will not owe us any additional fees, royalties, or payments for using the Products in your Compositions, regardless of the commercial success of those Compositions.

3. Restrictions

3.1 Prohibited actions. You may NOT redistribute, share, sell, rent, lease, sublicense, loan, trade, or otherwise transfer the Products in their original or modified form; upload the Products to any database, server, or file-sharing service; use the Products to create competing products or sample libraries; use the Products to train artificial intelligence or machine learning systems; use the Products as standalone sound effects or musical content without significant creative transformation; claim ownership or authorship of the Products; use DAW templates or project files “as-is” without substantial creative input and modification; use any artist’s name, likeness, image, or brand associated with vocal samples or other Products for promotional purposes; distribute the Products on physical media.

3.2 Template / project files and construction kit usage. When using DAW templates, project files, construction kits, stems, or any other pre-arranged content, you MUST add substantial original creative input — new musical elements, significant editing, a new arrangement, not simply exporting the template or kit “as-is”.

4. Delivery

Products will be made available for download immediately upon purchase or within a reasonable time period. You are responsible for downloading and backing up the Products. Download links may expire after a reasonable period. We recommend you save backup copies of all purchased Products.

5. User Responsibility

You are responsible for ensuring you have the necessary equipment, software, and technical knowledge to use the Products. We do not guarantee compatibility with any specific software, platform, or system. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Products and preventing unauthorized access or distribution.

6. Intellectual Property

We retain all intellectual property rights, title, and interest in the Products. Your licence does not transfer ownership of any intellectual property rights to you. The Products are protected by copyright laws and international copyright treaties. You retain all rights to your Compositions that incorporate the Products, subject to our underlying rights in the Products themselves.

7. Warranties and Liabilities

The Products are provided on an “as is” basis without warranty of any kind. We do not warrant that the Products will meet your specific requirements or expectations. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of the use or inability to use the Products. In any case, our entire liability under this Agreement shall be limited to the amount you actually paid for the Products. You expressly understand and agree that Freshly Squeezed Samples shall have no liability whatsoever for any claims, losses, actions, damages, suits, or proceedings arising from or in any way related to your use of the Products.

8. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Freshly Squeezed Samples, its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against all losses, expenses, damages, and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from any violation of this Agreement by you.

9. Term and Termination

This Agreement is effective from the date of purchase or download of the Products and continues until terminated. It will terminate automatically if you fail to comply with any term or condition. We reserve the right to revoke your licence for fraudulent payment, payment chargebacks, violations of the Agreement, misuse of the Products, or any illegal activity. Upon termination, you must cease all use of the Products and destroy all copies in your possession.

10. Governing Law

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Scotland. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Scottish courts.

11. General Provisions

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and us concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements. If any provision is held unenforceable, that provision will be removed and the remaining provisions will remain in full force. You may not assign or transfer this Agreement without our prior written consent. If you have any questions about this Agreement, please contact us.

By purchasing, downloading, or using our Products, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Agreement and agree to be bound by its terms and conditions.
