Community guidelines

Where these rules apply

They apply to everything you put on Tunaki: song descriptions, lyrics, titles, covers, your artist name, your profile and your playlists. They are part of the Terms of use. Tunaki is for adults aged 18 and over.

What is welcome

• Songs from your own ideas, in any genre we offer.
• Lyrics that you wrote yourself.
• Songs that start from the settings of another song, where its artist allows that. Tunaki adds a line that credits the song that inspired yours.
• Songs about hard subjects. Music can be sad, angry or dark.
• Strong language and adult themes, as long as you mark the song as explicit.

What is not allowed

Copying people and their work

• Imitating or cloning the voice of a real person.
• Using the name or likeness of an existing artist, band or label in a song, a title, an artist name or a profile.
• Pretending to be someone you are not, or calling yourself official or verified.
• Lyrics that are not yours, and attempts to recreate an existing song or melody.
• Saying that a song was performed or written by a person or a band. All music on Tunaki is AI-generated and is labelled that way.

Harm to people

• Hate: attacks on people because of who they are, such as their origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation or disability.
• Threats, harassment and bullying, and sharing someone's private information.
• Anything that sexualises minors or puts a child at risk. We remove it, close the account and report it to the authorities.
• Pornographic or sexually explicit content.
• Praise of violence or terrorism, or calls to commit it.
• Content that encourages suicide, self-harm or dangerous use of drugs or alcohol.

Cheating

• Fake plays, likes or follows, whether from bots, scripts, paid services or looping your own songs.
• Spam, scams and misleading links.
• Extra accounts to collect free songs or to get around a suspension.
• Getting around our filters, limits or age check.
• Removing or hiding the AI label or the watermark in the audio.

Anything illegal

Content that breaks the law is not allowed, even if it is not listed here.

How to report something

1. In the app, open the menu of any song, profile or playlist and choose Report. On the web, use the report form. You do not need an account for the form.
2. Tell us what is wrong. For a rights complaint, the Copyright and complaints policy says what we need from you.
3. If we have your contact details, we confirm that we received your report.

You can also block any user. You then stop seeing their songs, profile and playlists.

What happens after a report

1. A person on our team looks at the report.
2. A report about the safety of a child, or reports from several different people, hides the content from search and recommendations straight away, until we have looked at it.
3. We decide: remove the content, restrict it, or leave it up.
4. We tell the person who reported it what we decided. If we act, we tell the artist what we did and why.
5. Both sides can object within six months. A person reviews the objection.

What happens if you break the rules

• Our filters block some requests before a song is made, and rewrite others. A blocked request costs no credit.
• If we remove something of yours, you get our reasons and a warning.
• After three warnings we suspend the account.
• For the most serious cases, such as content that endangers a child or a real threat against someone, we close the account at once.
