Privacy Policy

01 Overview

482 Entertainment LLC is an independent R&B and soul record label and music publisher based in Burbank, California. We respect your privacy and are committed to handling personal information responsibly.

This policy applies to information we collect through the Site and through direct communications with us — for example, when you submit an inquiry, send a demo or music submission, or ask about licensing or publishing. It does not apply to third-party platforms where our music is distributed (such as Apple Music or Amazon Music), which operate under their own privacy policies.

By using the Site or contacting us, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

02 Information we collect

We collect the following categories of information, depending on how you interact with us:

Information you provide to us

• Contact & inquiry details. Your name, email address, and any information you include when you email us or reach out about our artists, licensing, sync, or publishing.
• Demo & music submissions. If you send us music, lyrics, recordings, links, or related materials, we collect the content you choose to share along with any contact details that come with it.
• Business correspondence. Records of our communications, agreements, and the inquiries or requests you send us.

Information collected automatically

• Device & usage data. Such as your browser type, device type, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, and the dates and times of your visits.
• Cookies & similar technologies. Small files and identifiers used to operate the Site and, where applicable, understand how it is used. See Cookies & tracking.

Information from third parties

If we use analytics providers or you interact with us through a third-party service (for example, a social or streaming platform), we may receive limited information from those services in accordance with their terms and your settings.

03 How we use information

We use personal information for the following purposes:

• To respond to your inquiries and communicate with you about our music, releases, licensing, and publishing.
• To review and evaluate demos and music submissions we receive.
• To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site and our day-to-day operations.
• To manage our relationships with artists, writers, partners, and service providers.
• To comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms, and protect our rights, our artists, and the public.
• For any other purpose disclosed to you at the time of collection or with your consent.

04 Cookies & tracking

We may use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Site working, remember preferences, and — where applicable — measure general usage so we can improve it.

• Essential cookies are necessary for the Site to function and cannot be switched off in our systems.
• Analytics cookies, if used, help us understand how visitors use the Site on an aggregated basis.

You can control cookies through your browser settings, including blocking or deleting them, though some features of the Site may not work as intended without them.

Global Privacy Control. Where required by law, we treat recognized browser-based opt-out signals, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC), as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for the browser or device that sends them.

05 How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only in the limited circumstances below:

• Service providers. Vendors who perform services on our behalf — for example, website hosting, email, analytics, and music distribution or publishing administration — and who are permitted to use the information only to provide those services.
• Legal & safety. When we believe disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of 482 Entertainment, our artists, our users, or others.
• Business transfers. In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of all or part of our business or assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
• With your direction or consent. When you ask us to share information or otherwise agree to it.

06 Third-party links & services

The Site links to third-party platforms where our catalog is available, including Apple Music and Amazon Music, and may link to other external sites. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party service you visit.

07 Data retention

We keep personal information for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes described in this policy — for example, to respond to and follow up on your inquiry, to maintain our business records, and to meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete it or de-identify it.

08 Data security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

09 Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. In particular, if you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), provides the following rights:

• Right to correct. To request that we correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.
• Right to opt out. To opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. As noted above, we do not sell or share personal information.
• Right to limit sensitive information. To limit the use of sensitive personal information in certain cases. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information beyond the purposes permitted under applicable law.
• Right to non-discrimination. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.

Residents of other jurisdictions may have similar rights under their local laws. We will honor applicable rights as required.

We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law.

11 Children’s privacy

The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

We operate from the United States, and the Site is hosted and managed there. If you access the Site from outside the United States, you understand that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your country.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to provide additional notice as appropriate. Your continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
