Terms of service.

Terms and Conditions

Introduction

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the websites givemysong.com and givemysong.co.uk (collectively referred to as "the Website") and any services offered by Give My Song, a sole trader entity ("we", "us", "our"). By using the Website and our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to comply with these Terms and Conditions.

Services

Give My Song provides personalised songs based on customer input. We request information such as names, hobbies, music preferences, and a favourite artists to create a unique, custom song for personal use. Each song is crafted with care, reflecting the details provided by the customer.

Pricing and Payment and first sample option

The price for a full personalised song will be clearly displayed on the Website. Payment for the full personalised song must be made before the full song is completed and delivered. Payments are processed securely through trusted payment gateways. We do not store payment information on our servers.

Give My Song may offer customers the option to receive a short first sample before payment. This first sample is intended to show the musical direction and emotional feel of the song before the customer decides whether to continue.

The first sample is not the finished song. It will usually be around 30–45 seconds in length and may contain only part of the intended final lyric, structure, vocal, or production.

The first sample option is limited to one sample per customer, household, recipient, or song request, unless we agree otherwise in writing. We reserve the right to refuse, pause, amend, or withdraw the first sample option at any time, especially if requests are unsuitable, excessive, incomplete, abusive, not made in good faith, or beyond our available capacity.

Revisions are not included at the free sample stage. If the customer chooses to continue after hearing the sample, payment will be required before work continues on the full personalised song.

If the customer does not wish to continue after hearing the first sample, there is no obligation to purchase the full song.

Delivery Timeframes

Where a full personalised song is ordered, we aim to provide 2 sample song directions within 3 working days of receiving an order, excluding weekends and public holidays. The cut-off for orders is 1pm UK time on any working day, with working days being Monday to Friday. Any order placed after 1pm UK time will be treated as having been received at 9am the next working day.

Where a first sample is requested before payment, we will aim to provide the first sample within a reasonable timeframe, usually within 3 working days, depending on demand and the information supplied. First sample requests may take longer during busy periods.

We aim to provide the final song, lyrics and artwork within 1 working day of receiving payment and confirmation of the chosen direction, where possible.

During busier periods, we reserve the right to extend delivery timeframes. However, we will always strive to complete your song in a timely manner, with a focus on delivering quality work as quickly as possible. Should any delays occur, we will inform you promptly.

If revisions are requested after payment, the timeline for completion will be at our discretion.

First Sample Fair Use Policy

The first sample option is offered in good faith to help customers understand what Give My Song can create from their story before deciding whether to continue to a full song.

To keep this option fair and sustainable, it is limited to one first sample per customer, household, recipient, or song request unless we agree otherwise in writing.
