Reverb

Terms of service

The deal,
in plain language.

What you sign up for when you use Reverb. What we promise. What we don't. How to leave if it stops working for you. No tiny print, no forced arbitration, no "we may change this whenever" surprises.

Last updated: 9 June 2026

1. Who you're agreeing with.

By creating an account on myreverb.nl, installing the Reverb extension, or using the dashboard, you agree to these terms with the team behind Reverb, operating as a sole-trader based in the Netherlands (KvK and VAT numbers on request).

If you don't agree with any of these terms, don't sign up. If you signed up already, see §10 below — leaving is three clicks.

2. What Reverb is.

At its foundation, Reverb is a dashboard that consolidates the royalty data you already receive from multiple music distributors (TuneCore, DistroKid, UnitedMasters, and the others as we add them) and your publishing society (Buma/Stemra) into one editorial view. That's the starting point. The full picture is wider than that.

Reverb is also a place where the streaming side of your catalogue gets the same treatment as the money side. On top of payouts, Reverb surfaces:

  • Streaming insights pulled directly from Spotify for Artists: monthly listeners, followers, day-by-day streams, saves, playlist additions, and the streams-per-listener ratio. The numbers that tell you whether a release is compounding or quietly cooling off, not just how much it paid out last month.
  • Per-track deep dives with daily, weekly, and all-time stream counts for every song in your catalogue. You can see which tracks moved after a playlist add, which ones spiked on a specific date, and which haven't budged in a year.
  • Catalogue + credits tracking that covers songs you released yourself, songs you produced for other artists, and songs you co-wrote. The dashboard splits views by role (Artist · Producer · Composer) so a producer cut doesn't get drowned out by your artist releases, and a song you helped write shows up where the publishing money lives.
  • Master-percentage clarity for every song. How much of each track's recording earnings is actually yours, sourced from the distributor that handles its splits, with overrides if a deal changed and the platform hasn't caught up.
  • Publishing-level breakdowns from your collecting society: payouts mapped per work, per platform, per country, per quarter. The level of detail Buma's portal usually hides three menus deep, surfaced as one readable view.
  • Long-form context for every number. Best week, peak periods, year-over-year comparisons, historical patterns. A figure on screen has meaning relative to what came before, not just as a standalone count.

All of the above gets stored against your account. We need to store it so we can render the dashboard back to you on every visit — that's the entire reason the storage exists. We don't do anything else with it. No advertising, no resale, no aggregate analytics product, no profile-building, no AI training. You ask Reverb to show you your numbers, Reverb keeps them so it can show them to you, and that's where the processing ends.

What Reverb is not: we don't pay you out, we don't collect royalties on your behalf, and we're not a distributor or a publisher. We aggregate, format, and present what's already yours.

3. How Reverb works (and why that's legal).

The Reverb Chrome extension runs in your own browser, signed into your own distributor accounts. When you click Connect, the extension reads the data you yourself could see by logging into that distributor manually — same session, same cookies, same authority.

We rely on two well-established legal frameworks:

  • The user-agent doctrine — Reverb acts as your agent, in your browser, with your consent. The same architecture pattern as 1Password, Honey and RescueTime. This is not scraping in the legal sense; we're executing actions you authorised on services where you're a legitimate user.
  • GDPR Article 20 (data portability) — every EU user has a statutory right to receive their own personal data and transmit it to another controller. When Reverb fetches your earnings from TuneCore, that's you exercising your Article 20 right and us being the tool you do it with. Read the article →

By signing up, you confirm that you're the legitimate owner of any account you connect to Reverb, and that you authorise Reverb to read data from that account on your behalf.

4. Your account.

You're responsible for:

  • Keeping your Reverb sign-in credentials safe.
  • Only connecting distributor accounts you actually own.
  • Anything someone else does if they get into your Reverb account.

One account per person. No shared logins between artists or band members — each member should connect their own distributor account. (Splits are tracked per-track, not by account.)

5. Pricing and subscriptions.

Reverb has two tiers, described in detail on the Pricing page:

  • Free — core dashboard features, indefinitely.
  • Plus — paid monthly or yearly via Stripe. 14-day free trial without a payment method up front.

Plus subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each billing period until you cancel. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period — you keep Plus access until then, we don't pro-rate refunds for partial months.

We can change prices for new subscribers at any time. For existing subscribers, any price change applies from your next renewal and we email you at least 30 days in advance. If you don't like the new price, cancel before the next renewal — no fees, no questions.

EU consumer law right of withdrawal: if you're an EU consumer and you buy Plus, you have 14 days to change your mind and get a full refund. After 14 days, the no-pro-rate rule applies.

6. What you can't do with Reverb.

  • Connect accounts that aren't yours, or that you don't have explicit authorisation to read.
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract our source code (the extension itself is open for inspection, but the backend is not).
  • Try to break our rate limits, scrape our internal APIs from outside the extension, or otherwise circumvent the way the service is designed to work.
  • Use Reverb to do anything that would be illegal where you live, or where we operate.

If we believe in good faith that you're doing one of the above, we may suspend your account while we look into it. We'll email you before doing anything more drastic.

7. Your data.

The full story lives on the Privacy Policy. Headline points relevant to these Terms:

  • Your distributor passwords never leave your browser. Reverb doesn't store them.
  • You can export everything we hold on you from Settings → Export.
  • You can delete your account from Settings → Delete account. We wipe everything within 30 days.
  • We don't sell your data, ever.

8. What we don't promise.

Reverb is a hobby-built small business right now. A few limits we're being explicit about:

  • No uptime SLA. We aim for "basically always up" but won't promise 99.9% in writing. We'll publish a status page when we scale enough to need one.
  • Distributor changes can break sync. Spotify, TuneCore, UnitedMasters and friends change their websites without telling anyone. When that breaks one of our scrapers, your data goes stale for a few hours or days until we ship a fix. We tell you in the dashboard when it happens.
  • Accuracy is best-effort. The numbers in your dashboard are exactly what the distributors reported to us. If they made a mistake (and they sometimes do), Reverb will show that mistake until they correct it on their side.
  • Not financial advice. The dashboard surfaces facts about your royalties. It isn't accounting, tax, or investment advice. Bring the numbers to a professional before making decisions with real money.

Outside of consumer-law remedies that EU/Dutch law guarantees you regardless of what we write here, we don't accept liability for losses caused by stale data, incorrect numbers sourced from a distributor, or service downtime. The full limitation of liability lives in the small print, but the short version is: we're not on the hook for "Reverb said I had €X so I spent €X" situations.

9. Changes to these terms.

If we change anything that meaningfully affects you (pricing, data handling, restricted use), we'll email every active user at least 14 days before the new version takes effect. The "Last updated" date at the top tells you when this version went live.

Trivial edits (typo fixes, clearer wording without changing meaning) we ship without an email. You can always check the git history of this file in our public repo if you want a diff.

10. Leaving Reverb.

Settings → Delete account. That's it. We email you a confirmation listing what got deleted. Your subscription (if any) cancels automatically.

Before you delete, hit Settings → Export my datato grab a JSON of everything you connected through Reverb. That's yours to keep regardless.

11. Governing law.

These terms are governed by Dutch law. If we end up in a dispute, the courts of Amsterdam, Netherlands have jurisdiction. EU consumers also retain the right to bring claims in their own country of residence under EU consumer law — we won't try to contract you out of that.

There's no mandatory arbitration clause. There's no class-action waiver. If something goes badly wrong, normal courts handle it normally.
