Effective Date: 2025/01/01
This DMCA and Copyright Enforcement Addendum (the “Addendum”) forms an integral part of the Master Terms of Use, Legal Framework and Liability Agreement of Redneck.work (the “Terms”). In the event of any inconsistency between this Addendum and the Terms, the Terms shall prevail.
This Addendum defines copyright ownership, permitted uses, prohibited uses, attribution requirements, and enforcement procedures applicable to all content published under the Redneck.work umbrella, regardless of platform, domain, or distribution channel.
Article I
Copyright Ownership
All music, audio recordings, musical compositions, videos, audiovisual works, narratives, characters, imagery, symbols, and related materials published under the Redneck.work umbrella (the “Content”) are protected works under the United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §101 et seq.) and applicable international copyright law.
Unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing, all copyrights and related rights in the Content are owned or controlled by Redneck.work and or the Operator, as defined in the Master Terms of Use.
No ownership rights are transferred by virtue of access to, use of, or interaction with the Content.
Article II
Permitted Non Commercial Use
Redneck.work encourages organic sharing, cultural circulation, and public exposure of its Content.
The following uses are permitted without prior written permission, provided that all attribution requirements set forth in this Addendum are strictly observed and that no monetization is involved:
Background playback of music in physical locations such as bars, cafés, restaurants, garages, workshops, private events, and similar venues, provided that no direct fee is charged for access to the music itself and no pay per play, coin operated, or credit based mechanism is used.
Non monetized reuploading, reposting, mirroring, embedding, or redistribution of Content on digital platforms.
Inclusion of Content in playlists, mixes, compilations, or community sharing contexts, provided that the Content is not used as a primary revenue generating element.
Redneck.work is not affiliated with any performing rights organization, licensing collective, or rights management society. No third party is authorized to license, collect fees, or assert rights on behalf of Redneck.work for such permitted uses.
Article III
Attribution and Authorship Requirements
All permitted uses of Content require clear, accurate, and visible attribution.
Attribution must reasonably identify, at minimum, the original project name or artist name, such as VibeFoundry, reference Redneck.work as the umbrella rights holder, and where applicable include a link or reference to the original source or official channel.
Attribution must not be removed, obscured, falsified, altered, or replaced.
Any intentional modification of titles, descriptions, metadata, credits, thumbnails, or contextual presentation that creates the impression of different authorship or ownership is strictly prohibited.
Presenting Redneck.work Content as original work of another individual or entity, or creating ambiguity as to the true authorship, constitutes unauthorized use regardless of monetization status.
Article IV
Prohibited Uses
The following uses are strictly prohibited without prior written permission from Redneck.work:
Any monetized use of Content, including but not limited to use in coin operated, credit based, pay per play, or subscription based jukebox systems.
Use of Content in monetized videos, streams, podcasts, broadcasts, advertisements, sponsorships, branded promotions, or other commercial contexts.
Use of Content in any context where access to the Content itself generates revenue, whether directly or indirectly.
Removal, falsification, or misrepresentation of authorship or ownership information.
Resale, sublicensing, or redistribution of Content for commercial gain.
Placement of Content behind paywalls or access restricted systems.
Unauthorized monetization or misattribution constitutes infringement regardless of whether the Content is otherwise publicly accessible.
Article V
DMCA Notice Procedure
Redneck.work responds to valid notices of alleged copyright infringement submitted pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
A valid DMCA notice must include identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, identification of the allegedly infringing material and its location, contact information of the complaining party, a statement of good faith belief that the use is unauthorized, a statement made under penalty of perjury that the information provided is accurate, and a physical or electronic signature of the complaining party.
DMCA notices may be submitted to the designated contact published by Redneck.work.
Article VI
Misattribution as Infringement
For the purposes of enforcement, unauthorized use includes false attribution, removal of credits, intentional misrepresentation of authorship, or presentation of Content in a manner that implies different ownership or origin.
Such conduct may be enforced through DMCA takedown procedures, platform enforcement mechanisms, or other available legal remedies, regardless of whether the Content itself is monetized.
Article VII
Counter Notification
Any party who believes that Content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification may submit a counter notification in accordance with 17 U.S.C. §512(g).
Redneck.work reserves the right to evaluate counter notifications and to pursue further action where appropriate.
Article VIII
Repeat Infringement
Repeated violations of this Addendum, including repeated misattribution or unauthorized monetization, may result in continued takedown actions, escalation to platform enforcement measures, refusal of future permissions, or legal action where warranted.
Article IX
No Waiver
Failure by Redneck.work or the Operator to enforce any provision of this Addendum shall not constitute a waiver of the right to enforce such provision in the future.
Article X
Governing Law
This Addendum shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States of America, without regard to conflict of law principles.
Article XI
Relationship to Master Terms
This Addendum supplements and enforces the Master Terms of Use of Redneck.work and does not grant any rights beyond those expressly stated herein.
