Terms of Use

Last updated 15 October 2026 · version 2026-10-15

Beyond Listening is a small, independent archive of personal stories about songs. By using it you agree to these terms. [DRAFT]

Sharing a story

Share only your own story, in your own words. You must be 16 or older.

Don't include private details about other people (full names, addresses, health information…) without their permission.

Quoting a line or two of lyrics is fine; don't paste whole songs.

No hate, harassment, threats, spam or advertising.

Moderation

Every story is reviewed before it's published. We may decline, shorten tags, or remove a story at any time, especially after a report. We'll tell you if we remove your story.

Music

Previews are provided by Deezer and Apple Music; links lead to the full songs on their platforms. All music belongs to its rights holders.

Only upload a song file if you made the recording or have permission to share it. We remove files on request of the rights holder.

No warranty

The archive is provided as is, by volunteers. We do our best to keep it online and safe, but can't guarantee it. These terms are governed by Italian law; nothing here limits your rights as a consumer.
