Acceptable Use Policy

ColabLoop only works if the loops on it are real, original and clearable. This is what that means in practice.

Last updated 2026-09-13ColabLoop Ltd

What you may upload

Audio you made yourself and have the right to license — loops, one-shots arranged into a loop, stems from your own sessions. Every upload requires you to confirm that it is not AI-generated, contains no copyrighted material you lack the rights to, and is your own original work. Those confirmations are recorded with a timestamp.

What you may not upload

  • Material you do not own or have permission to use, including uncleared samples, commercial recordings, and loops taken from someone else's pack without a licence that allows redistribution.
  • Audio generated by an AI music model.
  • Anyone else's work passed off as your own, including re-uploading another ColabLoop producer's loop.
  • Audio containing hate speech, harassment, sexual content involving minors, or content that is illegal where you or we operate.
  • Files that are not what they claim to be — corrupted audio, silence, or anything uploaded to abuse the storage rather than to find a collaborator.

How you may behave

Collaboration requests are free, which only stays workable if nobody abuses it. Do not mass-send identical requests, scrape the catalogue, use another producer's contact details for anything other than the collaboration they were shared for, or misrepresent a split you agreed.

Contact and publishing details exchanged in a Collaboration Room are shared for that collaboration. Adding someone to a mailing list because you got their email that way is a breach of this policy.

Accounts and verification

Uploading and requesting require a manually verified producer account. Do not create multiple accounts, use someone else's BeatStars profile to get verified, or attempt to bypass the verification gate. Verification can be revoked.

Automated screening, and what it doesn't do

Every upload is fingerprinted against a database of commercial recordings before it goes live, and a match means automatic rejection with that upload returned to your quota. Passing that check is not permission — it does not establish that you own what you uploaded, and it does not detect an uncleared sample that never appeared on a commercial release.

Reporting infringement or abuse

If you believe something on ColabLoop infringes your copyright or breaks this policy, tell us through the contact page. Include the loop's link, what you own, and how to reach you. We will review it, and we will take down material we judge to be infringing.

What happens if you break these rules

Depending on what happened, we may remove the loop, revoke verification, suspend the account, or close it. Repeated copyright infringement ends access. Where an account is closed for a breach, unused quota is forfeited, as set out in the Refund Policy.

We would rather ask first than act first where a rule looks like it was broken by accident, and we will tell you what happened and why.
