Same notice that ships in Stave under Guide → Notices. Using Stave means you accept these terms.
Stave keeps your name on a demo you wrote and composed. A session tool can leave its own label on that file. Privacy Clean takes that label off the copy and leaves your credits, including copyright, on it.
Download writes a new copy. The file you dropped stays where it was.
The release note lists the title, artist, and copyright read from the copy. A mark mixed into the song stays. When Stave saw the name of one on the file's label, the note says so.
These terms cover this copy of Stave, offered by Banlys. Dated 7 October 2026. Using Stave means you accept them. If you do not, close it.
Stave runs on your computer. There is no account. A file you drop is handled on that computer for the open session. Refresh drops the session. When Stave Share is on, the phone link is a window onto that same computer, on the same Wi-Fi. The link is a key for that session. The file is not sent to Banlys.
Banlys licenses you to use this copy of Stave on your own machines. The software stays with Banlys. The song you wrote stays yours. The credits on the copy are the words you put in the draft.
A download is a new file in a zip, with a release note read from the copy. Privacy Clean and Nuclear Clean take the session tool's notes off that copy, including a content credential, and leave the credits you kept. A mark mixed into the song stays. Stave does not retune a recording to change a detector's answer. The recording can still be matched. The terms of the tool that rendered a demo still apply to that account. Stave changes the copy, not those terms.
A privacy copy that still has a session note or a tool name is named in the release note and left out of the zip. A quiet note is not a clean bill.
Saved presets stay in this browser until you export them. The example files are samples for trying the editor.
Stave is provided as it is. Banlys does not warrant that a copy will pass a distributor, a label check, or a later listener. As far as the law allows, Banlys is not liable for a lost file, a rejected delivery, or a claim about a recording. Where the law does not allow that limit, it applies only as far as it can.
These terms apply to the copy you are running. A later copy can carry a later date.
Stave is not a lawyer, a rights registry, or a distributor's disclosure form. This text is the notice for the software. It is not legal advice for your recording.
The copyright line on the copy is the line you wrote. Stave leaves that line when you keep it. Privacy Clean and Nuclear Clean take a tool's content credential off the copy.
Stave can show a content credential. Privacy Clean and Nuclear Clean can take that label off the copy. If the label names a known mark, the note says so and leaves the song as it is. Stave cannot hear a mark in the sound. If the note says none that Stave can check, that is the limit of the check.
Rewrite the audio writes a new file of what a person hears and clears marks the previous file was carrying. Drop sound above hearing takes out what a person does not hear. With that drop on, the copy is not sample-for-sample. What a person can hear stays, and the recording can still be matched.
ExifTool reads the tags. The tag writer is a separate program. A rewrite uses ffmpeg when that program is installed. Those tools have their own terms.
