2. Service Description

AIDJSets is an AI-powered tool that helps DJs and music producers create DJ sets. The Service includes:

  • Desktop Application: An Electron-based application that integrates with your local Rekordbox library to read track metadata and generate AI-assisted DJ set recommendations.
  • Web Application: A companion website for account management, marketing content, blog, and payment processing.
  • AI Set Generation: Using artificial intelligence (currently Google Gemini) to analyze your track metadata and generate set recommendations including track order, transition suggestions, and harmonic mixing guidance.
  • Token System: A credit-based system for accessing AI set generation features.

3. Account Registration

3.1 Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account and use our Service. By registering, you represent that you meet this age requirement.

3.2 Account Responsibilities

  • You must provide accurate and complete registration information.
  • You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
  • You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account.
  • You must notify us immediately at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.

3.3 Account Termination

You may delete your account at any time by contacting us at [email protected]. Upon deletion, your account data will be removed in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Unused tokens are non-refundable upon voluntary account deletion (see Section 4.4).

4. Token Purchases and Payments

4.1 Token System

Access to AI set generation features requires tokens. Tokens are purchased in packages and consumed when generating sets.

4.2 Merchant of Record

All token purchases are processed by Paddle.com Market Limited ("Paddle"), which acts as our Merchant of Record. By purchasing tokens, you enter into a separate purchase agreement with Paddle for the payment transaction. Paddle handles all payment processing, VAT calculation, invoicing, and payment-related customer support.

4.3 Prices and Payment

Token packages are offered at prices displayed on our website and desktop application. All prices include applicable taxes (VAT is calculated and collected by Paddle based on your location).

Purchases are one-time transactions — there are no recurring subscriptions.

4.4 Token Validity and Expiration

  • Purchased tokens do not expire and remain valid as long as your account is active.
  • Tokens are non-transferable between accounts.
  • Unused tokens are forfeited upon voluntary account deletion.
  • In case of account termination by us (Section 10), reasonable efforts will be made to provide a refund for unused tokens, subject to the circumstances of termination.

4.5 Right of Withdrawal for Digital Content

Please refer to our separate Refund Policy for full details on your right of withdrawal under German consumer protection law (Fernabsatzrecht).

5. AI-Generated Content

5.1 Nature of AI Output

The DJ set recommendations generated by our AI are suggestions based on the track metadata you provide. They are intended as creative assistance, not authoritative instructions.

  • AI output may contain errors, suboptimal suggestions, or unexpected results.
  • We do not guarantee the musical quality, harmonic accuracy, or performance suitability of generated sets.
  • The AI does not access, process, or analyze actual audio files — only metadata.

5.2 Your Content

You retain all rights to the track metadata and playlist information you submit to our Service. By submitting this data, you grant us a limited license to process it solely for the purpose of providing the AI set generation service.

5.3 Generated Set Output

The AI-generated set recommendations (track ordering, transition notes, mixing suggestions) are provided to you for your personal and professional use. You are free to use, modify, and perform sets based on these recommendations without restriction.

We do not claim intellectual property rights over the generated output. However, the underlying AI models, algorithms, and the Service itself remain our intellectual property.

5.4 No Music Rights

Our Service deals exclusively with metadata and set arrangement suggestions. We do not distribute, license, or provide any music files. You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the legal right to perform or use any music in your DJ sets.

6. Rekordbox Integration

6.1 Local Processing

The desktop application reads your local Rekordbox database to access playlist and track metadata. This processing occurs entirely on your local device.

6.2 No Affiliation

AIDJSets is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Pioneer DJ, AlphaTheta, or the Rekordbox software. Rekordbox is a trademark of AlphaTheta Corporation.

6.3 Compatibility

We make reasonable efforts to maintain compatibility with current Rekordbox database formats. However, we cannot guarantee compatibility with all versions or future updates of Rekordbox.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law.
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service or servers connected to the Service.
  • Use automated means (bots, scrapers) to access the Service without our written consent.
  • Create multiple accounts to circumvent usage limits or abuse the token system.
  • Share, sell, or transfer your account or tokens to third parties.
  • Attempt to exploit vulnerabilities in the Service.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

8. Intellectual Property

8.1 Our Property

The Service, including but not limited to the software, design, branding, logos, text, and documentation, is owned by Tobias Thiele and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved.

8.2 Feedback

If you provide feedback, suggestions, or ideas about the Service, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable license to use, modify, and incorporate such feedback into the Service without obligation to you.

9. Limitation of Liability

9.1 Scope of Liability

Our liability is governed by the following provisions in accordance with German law:

  • (b) We are fully liable for damages arising from the breach of a guarantee (Garantie) or under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).
  • (c) For the negligent breach of material contractual obligations (wesentliche Vertragspflichten / Kardinalpflichten) — obligations whose fulfillment is essential to the proper performance of the contract and on whose compliance you may regularly rely — our liability is limited to the typically foreseeable damages at the time of contract formation.
  • (d) Liability for the negligent breach of non-material contractual obligations is excluded.

9.2 AI Output Disclaimer

AI-generated set recommendations are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind regarding musical quality, accuracy, or suitability for any specific performance or purpose. We are not liable for any consequences arising from the use of AI-generated recommendations in live performances or recordings.

9.3 Service Availability

We strive to maintain high availability of the Service but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. Scheduled maintenance, updates, and unforeseen technical issues may cause temporary service interruptions.

10. Account Suspension and Termination

11. Modifications to the Service and Terms

11.1 Service Changes

We reserve the right to modify, update, or discontinue features of the Service at any time. For material changes that negatively affect your use, we will provide reasonable advance notice.

12. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

12.1 Governing Law

These Terms and any disputes arising from or in connection with them are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

If you are a consumer within the meaning of § 13 BGB (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch), mandatory consumer protection provisions of your country of residence that are more favorable to you shall also apply.

12.2 Jurisdiction

If you are a merchant (Kaufmann), a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with these Terms is Germany.

For consumers, the statutory rules on jurisdiction apply, meaning you may bring claims in the courts of your place of residence or in Germany.

12.3 Online Dispute Resolution

The European Commission provides an online dispute resolution (ODR) platform at: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr

We are not obligated and not willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board. However, we are committed to resolving disputes directly — please contact us at [email protected].

13. Miscellaneous

13.1 Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that most closely reflects the economic intent of the original provision.

13.2 No Waiver

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that provision or the right to enforce it subsequently.

13.3 Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the use of the Service.

13.4 Assignment

We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms to a third party in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. You may not assign your rights or obligations without our prior written consent.
