terms of service

plain language. last updated July 2026.

soonspins is a DJ mix archive and community radio station with a live chat. by using the site you agree to the rules below. they're short on purpose.

1. accounts

you can use soonspins without an account, but signing up gets you a username and longer chat messages. when you sign up you give us a username, an email, and a password. keep your password to yourself. don't pretend to be someone you're not. one person, one account.

2. uploads — original music only

only upload music you made or that you have the rights to share. no ripping other people's songs, no reuploading commercial tracks, no stems you don't own. soonspins is built for independent artists and DJs to share their own work, not for redistributing someone else's. if you upload something you don't have the rights to, we'll take it down and your account may be suspended.

by uploading, you're letting soonspins play your track on the station and list it in the archives, with its title/mood/genre shown to listeners. you keep ownership of your music. we're not buying it from you.

3. the archives

the mix archive is a curated collection of DJ sets. mixes are added by the site admins, not through a public upload form — if you're a DJ and want a set added, reach out (see contact below).

4. the chat

be cool. specifically:

see the code of conduct for the longer version.

5. moderation

there is zero tolerance for objectionable content or abusive users. that includes hate speech, harassment, threats, sexual content involving minors, graphic violence, and spam. every message, track, and profile has a report option, and you can block any user from their profile — blocked users disappear from your chat immediately and the block is sent to us for review. we review reports within 24 hours, remove the offending content, and eject the user who posted it.

we keep it light. admins can delete chat messages, remove mistagged or rights-violating uploads, and suspend accounts that break the rules. there's no formal appeal process right now — if you think a suspension was a mistake, email us and we'll look.

6. things we can do

7. no warranties

soonspins is provided "as is." stuff might break. the stream might go down. we don't promise the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or perfect.

8. liability

to the maximum extent allowed by law, we're not liable for indirect or consequential damages from using the site. if something we did causes you a real problem, our total liability is limited to what you've paid us (which is zero, since the site is free).

9. copyright / DMCA

soonspins responds to clear notices of copyright infringement. if you believe something on soonspins infringes your copyright, send a written notice to copyright@soonspins.com that includes:

once we get a complete notice, we'll remove or disable the reported material and notify the uploader. an uploader who believes their track was removed by mistake or misidentification can send a counter-notice to the same address; we'll forward it to the original complaining party and may restore the material after the timeframe the law allows, unless that party has filed a court action.

accounts that upload infringing material repeatedly will be suspended or removed, on top of anything already covered in section 2.

10. contact

questions, takedown requests, anything else: contact@soonspins.com.
