Confidentiality of Song Content

Personal stories, names, memories, and other details you submit for song creation are treated as strictly confidential. We do not publicly share, publish, or distribute your personalized song or related personal details without your explicit consent, except where required by law.

SongsSmith may retain anonymized or instrumental portions of completed songs for internal portfolio use only, unless you expressly request otherwise in writing.

International Data Transfers

Songs Smith operates internationally. If you access our Services from outside our primary operating jurisdiction, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in other countries where data protection laws may differ.

Where such transfers occur, we ensure they are safeguarded by appropriate legal mechanisms, including:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission
  • The EU-US Data Privacy Framework (for transfers to the United States, where applicable)

By using our Services, you consent to your data being transferred and processed as described in this section.

Data Security

We implement commercially reasonable technical and organisational safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. These include encrypted data transmission (SSL/TLS), restricted access to personal data by staff, and reliance on PCI-DSS compliant payment infrastructure via Stripe.

No method of online transmission or storage guarantees absolute security. By using our Services, you acknowledge this inherent risk.

Children’s Privacy

Our Services are not intended for individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If we become aware that personal data from a minor has been collected, we will take reasonable steps to delete it promptly. If you believe we may have collected data from a minor, please contact support@dev.songssmith.com.
