Groovara Terms of Use

Eligibility and Beta Access

You must be legally capable of agreeing to these Terms. If you are under the age of legal majority where you live, you may use Groovara only with permission from a parent or legal guardian. Groovara is not intended for children under 13.

Certain features may require a beta code, invitation, connected music account, paid third-party subscription, or other eligibility requirement. Beta access may be limited, modified, or withdrawn at any time.

About Groovara

Groovara helps users create, organize, import, share, experience, and export music-based collections, Tracklists, Mixlists, notes, messages, and related content across supported music services.

Groovara does not host the underlying music recordings and does not grant rights to reproduce, distribute, publicly perform, or otherwise exploit music or third-party content.

User Accounts

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your account, devices, and login credentials, and for activity performed through your account. You agree to provide accurate information and promptly notify Groovara of suspected unauthorized access.

Groovara may use rate limits, beta restrictions, security checks, and other controls to protect the platform and third-party API quotas.

Connected Music Accounts

Some features require you to authorize Groovara through Spotify, Google, YouTube, or another supported provider. The provider—not Groovara—handles your provider username and password.

You authorize Groovara to use the permissions you approve only to provide the requested connected features. You may disconnect a supported account through Groovara's settings where available or revoke access through the provider.

Third-Party Services

Groovara integrates with third-party services including YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, Supabase, Vercel, and PostHog. Their content, accounts, subscriptions, availability, data practices, and actions are governed by their own terms and policies.

Groovara is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Music unless expressly stated otherwise. Third-party services may change, restrict, remove, or discontinue content or functionality without Groovara's control.

YouTube Terms of Service

Groovara uses YouTube API Services. By using any feature that accesses, displays, searches, imports, validates, matches, plays, exports, or otherwise interacts with YouTube content, you also agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service.

Google's collection and use of information is described in the Google Privacy Policy.

Playlist Imports, Matching, and Exports

Groovara may import metadata from public playlists, match songs across providers, and create playlists in a connected account when you explicitly select an export action.

Cross-platform matching is not guaranteed to be exact. Different recordings, remasters, live versions, covers, regional catalog differences, unavailable videos, and incomplete metadata may cause a missing or incorrect match. You are responsible for reviewing an imported or exported playlist and correcting it through the destination service when needed.

By confirming an export, you instruct Groovara to create a playlist and add the available matched songs to the selected connected service. Groovara may skip unavailable or unresolved songs and may provide manual search links or an export of only the songs already matched.

User Content and Shared Links

You may create or submit titles, descriptions, Tracklists, Mixlists, notes, messages, finishing notes, feedback, and other materials ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content.

You grant GROOVARA LLC a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, process, display, transmit, and distribute User Content only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, and provide Groovara, including delivering a shared Mixlist to its recipients.

You represent that you have the rights needed to submit User Content and that it does not violate law, these Terms, or another person's rights.

A Mixlist marked public or shared through an access-by-link URL may be accessed by anyone who obtains the link. You are responsible for choosing what to include and who receives the link.

Feedback

If you provide ideas, bug reports, suggestions, or other feedback, you grant Groovara permission to use that feedback without restriction or compensation, provided that we do not publicly identify you as its source without permission.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party terms
• Infringe copyrights, trademarks, privacy rights, or other rights
• Upload or share unlawful, abusive, deceptive, or malicious content
• Attempt unauthorized access to accounts, databases, APIs, or systems
• Interfere with Groovara's security, operation, or availability
• Introduce malware, harmful code, or automated abuse
• Scrape third-party music services or use undocumented provider APIs
• Circumvent rate limits, authorization controls, beta restrictions, or API quotas
• Automate views, playlist actions, or provider activity without valid user direction
• Misrepresent Groovara, impersonate another person, or use Groovara for fraud

Groovara Intellectual Property

Groovara, including its software, visual design, branding, logos, documentation, and original content, is owned by GROOVARA LLC or its licensors and is protected by intellectual-property laws.

These Terms do not grant you ownership of Groovara or third-party music, artwork, videos, trademarks, or platform content.

Service Changes, Availability, and Beta Risks

Groovara is under active development. Features may contain errors, change significantly, be subject to limits, or stop working. Groovara may add, modify, suspend, restrict, or discontinue any feature or the service at any time.

We do not guarantee that links, embeds, imports, conversions, exports, cached matches, connected accounts, or third-party content will remain available or accurate.

You should keep independent copies of important text or information you do not want to lose.

Suspension and Termination

Groovara may suspend or terminate access when reasonably necessary to protect users, comply with law or provider requirements, investigate abuse, address security risks, enforce these Terms, or discontinue the service.

You may stop using Groovara at any time and may request account or data deletion as described in the Privacy Policy. Termination does not automatically delete playlists or content stored in a third-party music service.

Privacy, Cookies, and Analytics

Groovara's collection and use of information—including authentication cookies, local storage, PostHog product analytics, Vercel Web Analytics, embedded-player technologies, and connected account data—is described in the Privacy Policy.

Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms as Groovara changes. The revised Terms will display a new Effective Date. Material changes may be accompanied by additional notice or a request that you accept the updated Terms. Continued use after the updated Terms take effect constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
