• By using Musicalee, you acknowledge having read, understood and accepted these T&Cs, as well as our confidentiality policy. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not access or use our Platform.

2. Using Musicalee

• Musicalee is a free music streaming platform with ads. You can listen to music for free, but advertisements will appear every 10 songs listened to.
• Users have the option to sign up for a monthly subscription to remove ads from their listening experience.
• Musicalee organizes a challenge every 3 months where the user with the most likes on all of his/her songs, with a minimum of 1000 likes to be eligible, can win $1000. The winner will be paid in their local currency (at the rate in effect on the date of the last day of the period during which the winner will be declared) by the means mentioned in the FAQs (Part 3: Subscriptions and payments)
  If the minimum of 1000 likes is not reached during the quarter, then the competition will continue and the likes will not be reset, until we have a winner, at the end of one of the quarterly periods mentioned below. As soon as we have a winner, the likes will be reset for the following period:
  The challenge periods are the same every year:
  Period 1: From January 1 to March 31
  Period 2: From April 1 to June 30
  Period 3: From July 1 to September 30
  Period 4: From October 1 to December 31
  If there is no winner over 4 successive periods, i.e. over a period of 12 rolling months, then the $1000 will be distributed among the top 20 artists in the ranking.
• Music contests allow users to listen to and vote for only one artist at a time. The winner of the competition wins the sum of 160 dollars if they obtain a minimum of 100 votes.
• The artists are not paid for the streams, but they may receive donations from users. The artists will receive 80% of the amount of donations excluding taxes.
• Sales of singles and albums earn artists 20% of the amount excluding taxes.
• The artists will receive 15% of the amounts paid by customers for any other service offered by Musicalee, excluding taxes.
