1.Acceptance
1.1These Terms of Use govern access to and use of Setlyst, an online platform for organising repertoire, lyrics, chords, setlists and live performances, provided by [RAZÃO SOCIAL], registered under CNPJ [CNPJ], with its registered office at [ENDEREÇO] (“Setlyst”, “we”).
1.2By creating an account or using the platform, you declare that you have read, understood and accept these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the Cookie Policy, the Community Guidelines and the Copyright Policy. If you subscribe to a paid plan, the Subscription Terms also apply.
1.3If you do not agree with any of these documents, do not create an account or use the platform.
2.Definitions
2.1For the purposes of these Terms:
- Platform: the Setlyst website, installable web app (PWA) and API.
- User: the individual who holds an account.
- User Content: songs, lyrics, chords, notes, setlists, gigs, tours, profile pictures and any other information entered by Users.
- Band: a space shared between Users, with a common repertoire, setlists, gigs and tours.
- Public link: an address created by a User to show a setlist or a gig to people without an account.
- Staff: administrators and moderators appointed by Setlyst.
3.The service
3.1Setlyst lets you store songs with lyrics and chords, build setlists, analyse the tempo (BPM) and energy of your repertoire, perform in Live Mode with a metronome and key transposition, organise gigs and tours, work in bands with a shared repertoire, export to PDF and ChordPro and access content offline.
3.2Setlyst is an organisation tool. We do not supply, sell or license third-party lyrics, chords or musical works: the whole repertoire is entered by Users themselves.
4.Registration and account
4.1Using the platform requires an account with a username, a valid e-mail address and a password, or signing in with Google. The information you provide must be accurate and kept up to date.
4.2The platform is intended for people aged 18 or over. Teenagers aged 16 and 17 may use it only with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian, who is responsible for the account. Use by anyone under 16 is not allowed.
4.3Each account is personal and non-transferable. You may not create accounts on behalf of someone else, keep accounts to get around sanctions or trade accounts.
4.4Usernames and profile pictures must follow the Community Guidelines. Setlyst may reset usernames that break them.
5.Account security
5.1You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for all activity in your account. We recommend turning on two-step verification in the security settings.
5.2If you suspect unauthorised access, change your password immediately and let us know at support@setlyst.app. The Setlyst team will never ask for your password.
6.Acceptable use
6.1When using the platform, you agree not to:
- publish or share unlawful, offensive or discriminatory content, or content that infringes the rights of others;
- publicly share protected works without the rights holders' authorisation;
- try to access other people's accounts, bands or data without permission;
- get around usage limits, plans, security mechanisms or sanctions;
- overload the infrastructure, scrape data or abuse the API;
- distribute malware, spam or misleading links;
- use the platform to harass, threaten or impersonate anyone.
6.2Security testing is welcome only under the conditions described in the Security Policy.
7.User Content and licence
7.1User Content remains yours (or belongs to whoever holds the rights to it). Setlyst claims no ownership over it.
7.2You grant Setlyst a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence, limited to the period during which the content is stored, only to host, store, technically reproduce, adapt the format of (for example, generate a PDF or transpose the key) and display the content to you, to the members of your bands and to anyone who opens the public links you create. This licence exists only to operate the service and ends when the content is deleted, except for backup copies kept for the period stated in the Privacy Policy.
7.3Setlyst does not use your content for advertising, does not sell it and does not make it available to third parties beyond what is needed to operate the platform.
8.Third-party protected material
8.1Lyrics, chords and arrangements by other artists are usually works protected by Brazilian Law 9,610/1998. By entering such material you declare that you have the right to use it or that you do so for study, rehearsal and performance, and you are solely responsible for that use.
8.2Sharing protected works publicly may require the rights holders' authorisation. The notice and takedown procedures are described in the Copyright Policy.
9.Public sharing links
9.1You can create public links to setlists and gigs. Anyone with the link can see the shared content, including lyrics and chords, without an account.
9.2You can revoke a link at any time. Copies or screenshots taken by others while the link was active are outside Setlyst's control.
9.3Staff may block public links that break these Terms or infringe the rights of others.
10.Bands
10.1Whoever creates a band becomes its owner. The owner and administrators set the members' roles and permissions, which determine who can edit the band's songs, setlists, gigs and tours.
10.2Songs, setlists, gigs, tours, suggestions and reminders created within a band belong to the band's space and are available to all members according to their permissions. By adding content to a band, you allow the other members to access it and, depending on their permissions, to edit it.
10.3When a member leaves or is removed, the content they added to the band stays with the band. That member's personal content remains in their account.
10.4The owner can transfer ownership of the band to another member and must do so before leaving. If the owner deletes their account, ownership passes automatically to the member with the highest role and longest membership; if there are no other members, the band and its content are deleted.
11.Moderation and sanctions
11.1Staff may review content that has been reported or detected by automatic checks, especially usernames, profile pictures and band logos.
11.2If these Terms or the Community Guidelines are broken, Setlyst may, depending on severity and recurrence:
- remove the content or image;
- reset the username;
- revoke public links;
- suspend the account temporarily;
- close the account permanently.
11.3Whenever possible, you will be told about the measure and its reason, and you may contest it through the support e-mail. Every Staff action is recorded in an audit log.
12.Availability and pre-release period
12.1Setlyst is in a pre-release period. Features may be added, changed or discontinued, and relevant changes are announced on the What's new page or by a notice in the platform.
12.2We aim to keep the platform continuously available, but interruptions may occur for maintenance, updates or reasons beyond our control. Live Mode and content saved for offline use help reduce the impact of connection failures on stage; we also recommend keeping an exported copy of your essential repertoire.
13.Plans and subscription
13.1Setlyst offers the Basic, Intermediate and Pro plans, with the limits and features described on the Plans page. The conditions for subscribing, the trial period, renewal, cancellation, refunds, credits and referrals are set out in the Subscription Terms.
13.2During the pre-release period, while billing is not active, every feature is available free of charge. The start of billing will be announced at least 30 days in advance.
14.Setlyst's intellectual property
14.1The Setlyst brand, logo, interface design and institutional texts belong to Setlyst. The platform's source code is distributed under the licence stated in the project's public repositories; that licence does not authorise use of the brand.
15.Limitation of liability
15.1Subject to the rights guaranteed by the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code (Law 8,078/1990), Setlyst is not liable for:
- User Content, including its lawfulness and copyright ownership;
- damage resulting from misuse of the account due to lack of care with the password;
- unavailability caused by failures of the User's connection, of third parties, or by acts of God and force majeure;
- losses resulting from content deleted by the User after the trash retention period.
15.2Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded by law, in particular liability for defects in the service under the Consumer Protection Code.
16.Termination
16.1You can delete your account at any time in Settings. We recommend exporting a backup of your content first.
16.2Deletion removes your personal data and your personal content, subject to the mandatory retention periods and backup periods described in the Privacy Policy. Content added to bands stays with the band.
16.3Setlyst may close accounts that seriously break these Terms, with prior notice whenever the situation allows.
17.Changes to these Terms
17.1These Terms may be updated. The effective date is shown at the top of the document. Relevant changes will be communicated by e-mail or a notice in the platform, and continued use requires accepting the new version.
18.Governing law and jurisdiction
18.1These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, in particular the Consumer Protection Code, the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet (Law 12,965/2014), the General Data Protection Law (Law 13,709/2018), Decree 7,962/2013 and Law 9,610/1998.
18.2The courts of the District of Caxias do Sul, State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, are chosen to settle matters relating to these Terms, without prejudice to the consumer's right to bring proceedings in the courts of their own domicile.
