Welcome to Cambrian.
Cambrian is a digital marketplace that enables creators to upload and license music, including music created or assisted by artificial intelligence tools, to buyers who wish to use such music in creative or commercial projects.
By accessing or using the Cambrian platform, website, or services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service.
If you do not agree with these Terms, you may not use the Cambrian platform.
Cambrian operates as a marketplace platform that facilitates transactions between creators and buyers.
Cambrian does not create, produce, or directly sell the tracks listed on the platform. Licenses are granted by creators to buyers through the Cambrian marketplace according to the selected license type.
Creators remain responsible for the content they upload and the rights they grant to buyers.
Cambrian permits the licensing of music that may be generated or assisted by artificial intelligence systems.
Because copyright law concerning AI-generated works is evolving and may vary by jurisdiction, Cambrian does not guarantee that all AI-generated tracks are eligible for copyright protection.
Licenses granted through Cambrian are contractual usage rights granted through these Terms regardless of the copyright status of the underlying work.
Creators remain responsible for ensuring that the content they upload may be legally licensed.
Cambrian offers three primary license types.
A non-exclusive license grants the buyer the right to use the track in commercial or non-commercial projects.
An exclusive license grants the buyer the sole right to commercially use the track through Cambrian.
Upon purchase of an exclusive license:
Creators agree not to grant additional licenses for the track after an exclusive license is sold.
A full copyright ownership purchase transfers all transferable rights the creator possesses in the track to the buyer.
Upon completion of a full copyright ownership purchase:
Unless otherwise restricted by the license type, buyers may use licensed tracks in projects such as:
Buyers may modify tracks as necessary for their projects, including trimming, looping, editing, or combining with other audio.
Buyers may not:
Tracks must be incorporated into a larger creative project when used.
By uploading content to Cambrian, creators represent and warrant that:
Creators agree to indemnify and hold Cambrian harmless from claims arising from the content they upload.
Cambrian maintains internal systems designed to prevent tracks sold under exclusive licenses or full copyright ownership from being licensed again.
Once an exclusive or full copyright ownership license is purchased, the track is removed from the public catalog and additional licensing is disabled.
The legal treatment of AI-generated works may evolve over time.
Users acknowledge that changes in copyright law or AI regulation may occur after a license is granted.
Such changes shall not invalidate licenses previously granted through the Cambrian platform. Buyers retain the contractual usage rights granted at the time of purchase.
Cambrian provides the marketplace platform but does not independently verify ownership of every uploaded track.
Creators are responsible for ensuring their content can be legally licensed.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Cambrian shall not be liable for disputes arising from user-uploaded content.
Cambrian reserves the right to suspend or terminate user accounts that violate these Terms of Service or applicable law.
Cambrian may update these Terms of Service from time to time.
Continued use of the platform after changes are published constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
