Project snapshot Project name: Track title: Track product link: Platform or release destination: Expected release date: Who is publishing the project: Personal, client, brand, agency, label, film, TV, game, app, or other use: Estimated audience, ad spend, or campaign size: Quick path 1. Choose the track and open its product page. 2. Describe where the finished project will appear and who will publish it. 3. Compare that use with the license summary on the product page. 4. Contact DSIV Music before checkout if the project involves a client, brand, paid media, broadcast, film, TV, games, apps, AI-assisted use, exclusivity, or raw-file sharing. 5. Complete checkout with the email address where you want the private delivery link sent. 6. Store the receipt, delivered files, license notes, and final project link together. Use case check Answer these questions before choosing a license: - Is this your own project, or are you delivering it to a client or company? - Will anyone pay to promote, boost, broadcast, distribute, screen, or install it? - Will the music remain inside one finished project? - Do you need stems, alternate mixes, timing edits, exclusivity, or custom music? - Could the project later expand to another platform, territory, campaign, or owner? If any answer changes the scale or ownership of the project, send the details to DSIV before checkout. When a creator license may fit A standard Creator License may fit when you are using the music inside your own finished social video, YouTube upload, podcast, livestream, artist promo, recap, trailer, portfolio edit, or similar creator project. Before you buy, confirm: - The product title matches the track you want. - The selected license matches your platform and project type. - The music will stay inside a finished project rather than being shared as a standalone audio file. - Your checkout email is correct so the private download can reach you. - You understand any limits listed on the product and license pages. When to contact DSIV before purchasing Contact DSIV first when your project includes: - A client, agency, brand, sponsor, label, broadcaster, network, film, TV show, festival, game, app, or installation. - Paid advertising, boosted media, theatrical release, broadcast, or a large campaign. - Exclusive rights, custom edits, stems, alternate mixes, or custom music. - Resale, redistribution, templates, sample packs, AI-assisted use, training or dataset use, or any use that shares the raw audio. - A request for written clearance, special invoice language, or custom terms. Ask before purchase Send DSIV Music the project details before purchase when the work involves a client, brand, sponsor, paid media, broadcast, film, TV, games, apps, AI-assisted use, exclusivity, raw-file sharing, or another use not stated on the product page. License fit checklist [ ] I have selected the correct track and product page. [ ] I know who owns and publishes the finished project. [ ] I know every platform where the finished project will appear. [ ] I know whether the project is personal, client, sponsored, advertised, broadcast, or distributed. [ ] The music will not be sold, shared, or offered as a standalone file. [ ] The product license covers my intended use, or DSIV has approved the exception in writing. [ ] My checkout email and project records are correct. Usage boundary A DSIV music license does not transfer ownership of the recording or composition. The product terms and delivered license note describe the allowed project use. Ask DSIV Music before raw-audio resale, redistribution, stock-library upload, sample-pack inclusion, AI-assisted use, training or dataset use, impersonation, or any use outside the stated project scope. Before checkout - Read the product page, license summary, and Digital Delivery and Refunds page. - Confirm the title, price, license type, and delivery contents. - Ask questions before paying if your use is not clearly covered. - Use an email address you can access after the project is delivered. - Keep any written DSIV answer with your order records. What you receive Check the product page for the exact delivery. A music purchase may include: - The purchased audio file. - License or usage notes. - An order confirmation and product reference. - Track, writer, publisher, PRO, or cue details when needed. - DSIV contact information for follow-up questions. Delivery and recordkeeping - Downloaded audio file. - Order receipt or invoice. - Product and license page links. - Written DSIV approvals, if any. - Final project export and published URL. - Cue sheet or written project notes when required. Post-purchase record Keep the order confirmation, invoice, delivered audio, license notes, cue metadata, written approvals, and published project link together as your post-purchase record. This folder is the clearest reference if a client, platform, broadcaster, or distributor later asks what was licensed.

Will another company own, publish, distribute, advertise, broadcast, or reuse the finished project? - Yes: request written guidance for the correct license or custom terms. - No: keep the receipt and license notes with your final export. Has the project changed after purchase? - Yes: describe the new platform, owner, territory, audience, budget, or deliverable and request an upgrade. - No: keep using the track within the approved scope. Expanding your license Keep the original order number and contact DSIV Music before expanding into paid media, broadcast, film, TV, games, apps, festivals, client transfer, brand clearance, exclusivity, stems, or custom scoring.
