1. Acceptance
These terms apply when you download, install or use JaMeet, or use the ja-meet.com website. “JaMeet”, “we” and “us” refer to the operator of the service. By using JaMeet you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use it.
These terms include the beta terms in section 4 and the software licence in section 8, which apply for as long as JaMeet is in beta.
2. Eligibility
You may use JaMeet only if you are old enough to enter a binding agreement where you live, and only if you are not barred from using it under applicable law. If you use JaMeet for an organisation, you confirm you are allowed to accept these terms on its behalf.
3. Accounts and account security
You can join a session as a guest without an account. An account is needed to keep projects between sessions.
- Give accurate registration details and keep them current.
- Choose a password you do not use elsewhere and keep it to yourself.
- You are responsible for activity under your account.
- Tell us at support@ja-meet.com straight away if you think your account has been used without your permission.
One person, one account. Do not share an account or let anyone else sign in as you.
4. Beta software
JaMeet is a public beta, provided so that people can test it and tell us what breaks. That has consequences you should plan around:
- It will contain defects, and features may behave unexpectedly or stop working.
- Features can change, be replaced or be removed at any time, without notice.
- Sessions can drop, and data can be lost or corrupted. Keep your own copies of anything you care about.
- The service may be interrupted for maintenance, or become unavailable entirely.
- The beta is currently free. We may introduce paid plans later; we will not start charging you for something without telling you first.
- We may end the beta, or an individual beta account’s access, at any time.
5. Availability and suitability
We do not promise any level of availability, uptime, latency or audio quality. JaMeet is not suitable for anything critical — do not rely on it for a paid session, a broadcast, an emergency, or any situation where a failure would cause real harm.
Call quality depends on both networks, both computers and your audio hardware, none of which we control.
6. Your content
Your content is yours. Songs, lyrics, notes, structure, tasks, project material and everything you say and play in a session remain your property, and nothing here transfers ownership to us.
To run the service we need a narrow permission: you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, back up, transmit, reproduce and display your content solely to operate, secure and support JaMeet — for example, to deliver a project to your collaborator, keep it available across sessions and include it in a backup. The licence covers nothing else. We do not use your content for advertising, do not sell it, and do not use it to train machine-learning models.
The licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies held in existing backups until they age out on their normal schedule.
You are responsible for your content, including having the rights to it and to anything you play, share on screen or upload into a project.
7. Acceptable use
You may use JaMeet to make music with one other person. You may not:
- Break the law, or infringe anyone’s copyright, trademark, privacy or other rights.
- Harass, threaten, defraud or impersonate anyone, or send unsolicited or unlawful material.
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the service, other accounts, or any system connected to it.
- Probe, scan, overload, rate-limit-evade, disrupt or otherwise interfere with the service or the networks it runs on.
- Use automated means to create accounts or sessions, or to extract data from the service.
- Resell, sublicense or offer JaMeet as a service to others.
- Remove or work around security, access or quota controls, or use JaMeet in a way designed to conceal who is using it.
Responsible security research is welcome — report findings privately rather than acting on them against other users.
8. Software licence
JaMeet — including the application, its binaries, native components, documentation, assets and design — is proprietary and confidential to JaMeet and its authors.
For the beta period we grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and run JaMeet solely to test and evaluate it and to give us feedback. Except where we have agreed in writing, or where the law gives you a right that cannot be excluded, you may not:
- Copy, modify, fork, create derivative works of, or distribute JaMeet in whole or in part.
- Sublicense, sell, rent, lease, host as a commercial service, or otherwise commercially exploit it.
- Reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any binary component, native driver or compiled artefact.
- Remove or alter any copyright notice, trademark or proprietary marking.
All rights not expressly granted are reserved. The licence ends when the beta ends, when we withdraw it, or when you stop using JaMeet.
9. Copyright and third-party rights
Respect other people’s rights. Do not use JaMeet to share, perform or distribute material you do not have the rights to. If you believe something on the service infringes your copyright, write to support@ja-meet.com with enough detail to identify the work and the material in question, and we will look into it. We may remove content and end access for repeat infringement.
10. Recording
JaMeet has no built-in call recording: it does not record or store your audio, video or screen share. On macOS the installer adds a virtual audio device that lets your own DAW receive your collaborator’s audio as an input — the capture and any recording that follows happen entirely in your software, on your computer.
If you record a session with your DAW or any other tool, that is your responsibility. Recording and consent laws differ by country and by state, and some require every participant to agree before you start. Get consent from everyone on the call, and follow the law that applies to all of you.
11. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains what JaMeet collects, why, who processes it and how to have it deleted. It forms part of your agreement with us, so please read it alongside these terms.
12. Updates
JaMeet checks for updates and offers to install them from inside the app. Updates may add, change or remove features. The service can require a minimum app version, so a version you decline to update may eventually stop connecting. Some releases need the full installer instead of an in-app update; the app tells you when that is the case.
13. Feedback
Feedback, bug reports and suggestions are welcome, and sending them is voluntary. If you send us an idea, we may use it to improve JaMeet without owing you payment, credit or confidentiality. Do not send us anything you consider confidential or that someone else owns.
14. Suspension and termination
You can stop using JaMeet at any time, and you can ask us to delete your account by writing to privacy@ja-meet.com.
We may suspend or end your access — with notice where it is reasonable to give it, and without where it is not — if you breach these terms, if your use puts the service or other people at risk, if we are required to, or if we end the beta. Sections that by their nature should survive (your content licence for existing backups, acceptable use, the software licence restrictions, disclaimers and liability) survive termination.
15. Disclaimer of warranties
JaMeet is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement. We do not warrant that JaMeet will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or that data will not be lost.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
16. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost recordings, lost projects, lost data or lost goodwill, arising out of or connected to your use of JaMeet — even if we were told such damages were possible.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for all claims relating to JaMeet is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for it in the twelve months before the claim, or fifty US dollars.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the law that applies to you — including liability for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.
17. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as JaMeet develops. The effective and last-updated dates at the top of this page always reflect the current version. If a change materially affects your rights we will give notice in the app or by email before it takes effect. Continuing to use JaMeet after a change takes effect means you accept the updated terms; if you do not accept them, stop using JaMeet and ask us to delete your account.
18. General
These terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about JaMeet. If a provision is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force. Our not enforcing a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not transfer your rights under these terms; we may transfer ours in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
