Last updated: 6 June 2025

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you ("you", "your" or "User") and Web3 Music Association, a not-for-profit legal entity incorporated under the laws of Switzerland ("RECORD", "we", "us" or "our"). By registering for, accessing or using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.

1. DEFINITIONS

  • "Platform" means the cloud‑based software environment made available at https://portal.record.nexus/ through which Users may upload Portfolio Data and receive intellectual‑property (IP) analytics.

  • "Service" means the provision of the Platform, related documentation, support, and internal accounting of the non‑tradable YREC counter.

  • "YREC" means a purely internal, non‑tradable, non‑transferable accounting counter that mirrors the relative IP weight of a User’s uploaded portfolio. YREC confers no ownership, economic, voting or redemption rights of any kind.

  • "Portfolio Data" means all files, data, metrics and information uploaded, transmitted or otherwise supplied by a User to the Platform.

2.2 If you use the Platform on behalf of an entity, you warrant that you have authority to bind that entity.

3. NATURE OF SERVICE

3.1 Analytics only. The Platform provides IP‑weighted metrics, back‑testing tools and related analytical outputs regarding investors’ equity portfolios (the “Service”). The Service does not hold or transmit client money or securities, execute trades, intermediate orders, or facilitate subscriptions or redemptions of any financial instrument.

3.2 RECORD does not act as broker, custodian, investment adviser, credit institution or payment service provider. You remain solely responsible for all investment decisions and for complying with your own legal and regulatory obligations.

4. NATURE OF TREC

4.1 YREC is an internal, non-transferable and non‑tradable accounting ERC-20 token that maps the notional IP weight of portfolios you upload into the Platform. It confers no ownership, profit, voting or redemption rights, cannot be transferred, withdrawn, pledged, traded, or otherwise disposed of, and will never leave RECORD’s custody in this version of the Service and RECORD is the owner of the YREC.

4.2 You acknowledge that YREC is a purely illustrative metric designed for the functioning of the Platform and has no monetary value.
