These Terms & Conditions and End‑User License Agreement (the “Agreement”) form a binding contract between you (“you” or the “User”) and Marion Capital LLC (“Licensor,” “we,” “us”), the owner and provider of the Aurora digital audio workstation software and related services (“Aurora” or the “Software”). By purchasing, downloading, installing, or using Aurora — or by checking the “I agree” box at checkout — you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not purchase, download, install, or use Aurora.
“Software” means the Aurora application, its code, interface, models, presets, and updates. “Output” means audio or project files you generate using Aurora. “Third‑Party Materials” means samples, sample libraries, virtual instruments, plug‑ins, and other content or tools created or owned by parties other than Licensor.
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement and payment of all applicable fees, Licensor grants you a limited, non‑exclusive, non‑transferable, revocable license to install and use the Software for your own music‑production purposes:
You must not, and must not permit others to: (a) copy, distribute, resell, sublicense, rent, lease, or share the Software; (b) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive source code, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by law; (c) modify, adapt, or create derivative works of the Software; (d) remove or alter proprietary notices; (e) circumvent license, device‑limit, or activation mechanisms; or (f) use the Software to build a competing product.
The Software and all intellectual property rights in and to it — including all copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, code, design, and “look and feel” — are and remain the exclusive property of Licensor and its licensors, and are protected by copyright and other laws of the United States and other countries. All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by Licensor. The “Aurora” name and logo are marks of Licensor and may not be used without prior written permission. This Agreement grants you a license to use the Software; it does not transfer any ownership interest in the Software to you.
As between you and Licensor, you own the Output you create with Aurora, and Licensor claims no ownership of your finished music. You are, however, solely responsible for your Output and its use, including ensuring you have all rights necessary for any Third‑Party Materials incorporated into it (see Section 6) and that your use does not infringe the rights of, or otherwise harm, any third party.
Aurora uses artificial‑intelligence models together with samples and instruments to help compose and produce music. You acknowledge and agree that: (a) AI‑assisted Output is generated probabilistically and may resemble or coincide with existing works; (b) Licensor does not warrant that any Output is original, novel, or free of third‑party rights; (c) the legal status and copyright‑eligibility of AI‑generated material is unsettled and varies by jurisdiction, and some Output may not be protectable by copyright; and (d) you are solely responsible for reviewing, clearing, and lawfully using your Output. Licensor is not liable for any claim that your Output infringes or misappropriates the rights of any third party.
Aurora may interoperate with, reference, or help you incorporate Third‑Party Materials — including commercial sample packs, virtual instruments, and mastering or effects plug‑ins — that are owned by their respective rights holders and governed by their own licenses. Licensor grants you no rights in Third‑Party Materials. You are solely responsible for obtaining, paying for, and complying with the licenses required for any Third‑Party Materials you use, and for any samples, presets, or plug‑ins present on your own device. Licensor makes no representation that any particular third‑party content is included, licensed to you, or cleared for your use.
Prices are shown at checkout. One‑time purchases grant the license described in Section 2. Subscriptions are billed on the stated cycle and carry the minimum term stated at checkout; you remain responsible for the minimum term once started. Payments are processed by a third‑party payment provider; Licensor does not receive or store your full payment‑card details. Except where a non‑waivable law requires otherwise, all sales are final and fees are non‑refundable, because the Software is a digital product delivered/activated immediately. Applicable taxes are your responsibility.
Aurora is built to run privately on your own computer. Licensor does not ask you for, collect, transmit, sell, rent, or share your personal data, your projects, or your Output. Aurora does not require an account and does not send your music or files to us.
Optional local library access. To help Aurora find samples and instruments already on your machine, Aurora can scan your device’s local music folders and installed plug‑ins. This scan runs entirely on your own device, and the results never leave your computer — nothing is uploaded, collected, or shared. This access is optional: at checkout and on first launch you may choose “Yes” to allow local library access or “No” to decline. Choosing “No” does not affect your purchase; it only means Aurora will not auto‑discover local content, which you can still add manually. You may change this choice at any time in the app’s settings.
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON‑INFRINGEMENT. Licensor does not warrant that the Software will be uninterrupted, error‑free, or secure, that it will meet your requirements, or that Output will be of any particular quality or free of third‑party rights. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LICENSOR AND ITS SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR MUSIC/PROJECTS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE OR THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. LICENSOR’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some may not apply to you.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Licensor and its officers, contractors, and agents from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Software; (b) your Output and your use of it; (c) your use of any Third‑Party Materials; or (d) your breach of this Agreement or violation of any law or third‑party right.
This Agreement is effective until terminated. It terminates automatically if you breach it, and Licensor may suspend or terminate your license for breach. On termination you must stop using and delete all copies of the Software. Provisions that by their nature should survive (including Sections 3–6 and 9–15) survive termination.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of Galveston, Texas, without regard to conflict‑of‑laws rules. The courts located in Galveston, Texas will have exclusive jurisdiction and you consent to venue there, except that Licensor may seek injunctive relief in any court to protect its intellectual property. To the extent permitted by law, you and Licensor agree to bring claims only in an individual capacity and not as part of any class or representative action.
Licensor may update this Agreement from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Your continued use of the Software after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Agreement.
This Agreement is the entire agreement between you and Licensor regarding the Software and supersedes prior understandings. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect and the unenforceable provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted. Licensor’s failure to enforce any right is not a waiver.
