Terms of Service.
The terms that apply when you listen, submit music, create an artist profile, purchase a DCR service, or use DCR Radio online.
Effective date: September 27, 2026
1. About DCR
DCR Radio is operated by DCR Entertainment LLC in Virginia. DCR provides internet radio, artist discovery, artist profiles, promotional membership services, music-submission tools, Fan Club services, and related digital content.
2. Acceptance of these terms
By using DCR Radio or submitting information through the site, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. Additional terms shown at checkout, in a submission form, or in a separate artist or rights agreement also apply to the applicable service.
3. Artist accounts and information
Artists are responsible for keeping profile, contact, ownership, payment, and release information accurate. You may not impersonate another person, submit false ownership information, or use DCR services for unlawful, misleading, infringing, or abusive activity.
4. Music submissions and ownership
You keep ownership of music and creative materials you submit unless a separate written agreement says otherwise. Submitting a song does not transfer ownership to DCR. Any permission for DCR to stream, promote, display, or otherwise use a submitted recording is governed by the applicable submission terms, direct-license agreement, or other written authorization accepted for that track.
5. Rights clearance
You may submit only material you are authorized to submit. You are responsible for accurately disclosing co-writers, publishers, beat licenses, samples, interpolations, cover songs, featured performers, AI-assisted elements, and other third-party rights. DCR may request documentation, place a submission on hold, reject it, or remove it from rotation when rights are unclear.
6. Membership services
Membership provides the profile, community and promotional services listed on the membership page. Limited airtime is assigned separately by DCR. Music rights clearance remains required for broadcast or promotion.
7. Subscription billing, cancellation and no-refund policy
Fan Club subscriptions cost $2.99 USD per month. Artist and DJ subscriptions cost $29.99 USD per month. Your selected subscription is charged at purchase and renews automatically each month at the disclosed price until canceled. Any applicable taxes are shown at checkout.
All subscription payments are final and non-refundable, except where a refund is required by applicable law. This applies to initial payments and renewals for Fan Club, artist and DJ memberships. DCR does not provide refunds, partial refunds, prorated refunds or credits for unused time, failure to use benefits, a change of mind, or cancellation after a renewal has been charged. Submission rejection, lack of airplay, or not achieving a desired promotional result does not by itself qualify for a refund.
Cancel before your next billing date to prevent the next charge. Sign in, open Fan Club / your account, choose Manage billing, and cancel the subscription in the billing portal. Artist and DJ dashboards also provide Manage billing. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period; eligible access continues until that date. Closing your browser, stopping use of DCR, or deleting a social profile does not cancel a subscription.
If you cannot access cancellation or believe a charge is duplicate, unauthorized or incorrect, email Newartist@dcrradio.com. This policy does not limit rights, remedies or refunds that cannot lawfully be waived. Save or print these terms for your records.
8. Membership benefits
Live radio remains free and always ad-free. Music submissions may be reviewed without a paid subscription. Paid memberships provide the benefits disclosed on the membership page. Airtime is limited and assigned separately. Membership does not guarantee airplay, a show slot, streams, followers, ticket sales or other audience results. Creator promotion requires usable material and is scheduled by DCR.
9. Uploads and storage
You are responsible for maintaining your own original files and backups. DCR may use third-party storage providers to receive audio, artwork, licenses, and project files. Do not upload malware, illegal content, or materials you are not authorized to provide.
10. Public artist profiles and DCR NOW
Information marked for public display—such as artist name, headshot, biography, social links, current release, interviews, and approved promotional materials—may appear on DCR artist pages, DCR NOW, social content, or other DCR promotional surfaces. Private rights documents, billing records, and unreleased files are not intended for public artist profiles.
11. TikTok and third-party platforms
DCR may use third-party services and APIs, including TikTok, Radio.co, Uploadcare, payment providers, hosting providers, and social platforms. Those services operate under their own terms and privacy practices. DCR is not responsible for outages, policy changes, account restrictions, or content availability controlled by third-party platforms.
12. DCR content and branding
DCR Radio branding, site design, original editorial content, DCR-owned graphics, and other DCR-created materials are owned by DCR Entertainment LLC or used with permission. These Terms do not grant permission to copy, resell, impersonate, or create confusingly similar uses of DCR branding.
13. Service changes
DCR may update programming, membership benefits, site features, submission requirements, pricing, or service availability. Material changes to recurring services will be handled through the notices and consent mechanisms required by applicable law.
14. Suspension or termination
DCR may suspend access, remove content, reject submissions, or end a service relationship for fraud, nonpayment, rights conflicts, abuse, unlawful activity, material breach of these Terms, or conduct that creates a meaningful legal or platform risk.
15. Disclaimers
DCR services are provided on an “as available” basis. DCR does not guarantee uninterrupted streaming, continuous third-party platform availability, a particular business result, or that every submitted track will be accepted or remain in programming.
16. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, DCR Entertainment LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or lost-opportunity damages arising from use of the site or services. Nothing in these Terms limits rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived.
17. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable to DCR Entertainment LLC in Virginia, without overriding consumer protections or other rights that apply under mandatory law.
18. Changes to these Terms
DCR may update these Terms as services evolve. The effective date at the top of this page shows the current version. When required, DCR will provide additional notice before material changes take effect.

Event ticketing terms
DCR provides technology that lets eligible Artist & DJ members offer tickets and event add-ons through DCR. The event organizer controls the event, venue, ticket inventory, pricing, admission rules, parking availability, fulfillment and event-specific refund/cancellation decisions. Unless DCR is expressly identified as the event organizer, DCR is not the promoter, venue or event producer.
Ticket payments are processed through the organizer’s connected Stripe account. DCR may collect a separately disclosed service fee or application fee configured by DCR. The organizer remains responsible for its Stripe processing costs, refunds, disputes, chargebacks, taxes and other obligations associated with its connected payment account, subject to Stripe’s terms and the specific Connect configuration.
Ticket quantities and add-on quantities are limited by the inventory configured by the organizer. A ticket is valid only for the event and admission level shown on the ticket and may be marked used after check-in. Refunded, canceled, duplicated, altered or previously used tickets may be rejected. Buyers should keep ticket links and QR codes private.
Service fees and ticket refunds may be treated differently. Any refund of a DCR service fee, where legally permitted, is governed by the checkout disclosures and applicable law. Event organizers must clearly communicate material event restrictions, age limits, accessibility information and venue policies that apply to attendees.
DCR may suspend ticket sales or an event listing for suspected fraud, unsafe activity, prohibited events, payment-account restrictions, materially inaccurate event information or other violations of these Terms.
