Copyright Policy
Last updated: November 5, 2026. This policy explains our copyright posture for users, platforms and rights holders.
1. Music on SoundCloud belongs to creators
Tracks, artwork and metadata published on SoundCloud remain protected by copyright and related rights, owned by the uploading artist and any co-owners or labels. Their Terms of Use govern redistributing, extracting or storing copies. AudioToolNest recognizes and reinforces that control rather than working around it.
2. What we do with SoundCloud content
- We retrieve only publicly available metadata (title, artist, artwork) through SoundCloud's official public oEmbed API, used as intended.
- We direct users to official routes: artist-enabled downloads on the track page and platform-provided offline features where a user's plan permits.
- We do not scrape, rip, capture, re-host or permanently store user content; we do not use the platform's API to rip, capture or store files.
- We do not bypass privacy settings, paywalls, geo-restrictions or technical protections of any kind.
3. What we convert
The MP3 converter processes audio files located on your device, only where you own the file or are authorized (rights holder, licensee, or permitted user — e.g. your own recordings, masters you control, or content explicitly licensed for re-encoding). Responsibility for having those rights rests with you as the user. The processing happens locally; AudioToolNest never receives or stores the file.
4. Site content and branding
AudioToolNest's name, logo, design, code and editorial text are original works of this project. "SoundCloud" and related marks belong to SoundCloud Limited; they appear here solely in reference to compatibility and guidance topics, without implying sponsorship or endorsement, and AudioToolNest uses no SoundCloud logo as its own branding.
5. Notices & removals
Since our tools hold no media, takedown notices are rarely applicable — we host nothing. But if you believe AudioToolNest or its materials (text, logo, screenshots) infringe your rights, or that the tools are being misused:
- Email audiotoolnest@gmail.com with: your name and role (owner or agent), the rights concerned, the specific material at issue, and the relief you request.
- We evaluate good-faith notices promptly and respond in writing; valid notices are honored by adjusting tools, text or pages.
- Fraudulent or materially misleading notices are rejected.
6. For artists who want downloads
If you want fans to receive your tracks as MP3s, enable the official download option on your track pages or connect listeners to your own distribution channels — we'll happily point every lookup to those official routes, which our Track Tool already does automatically.
