2. Platform description and purpose

TrustyLeak is a public-interest transparency platform designed to help independent artists and music creators evaluate the trustworthiness of digital music distribution companies. The Platform aggregates publicly available information, community-submitted reports, and AI-assisted analysis to generate informational trust indices.

TrustyLeak does not provide legal, financial, or professional advice of any kind. All content on the Platform is for informational purposes only.

This license does not transfer ownership of your content.

You must not submit fabricated evidence, spoofed data, or content designed to manipulate trust scores. Submissions found to be fraudulent may be removed without notice, and repeat offenders may be permanently restricted from the Platform.


4. Automated data processing

TrustyLeak uses artificial intelligence and automated systems to process publicly available information from across the internet, including but not limited to public forums, review platforms, and social media. This automated analysis is used solely to produce aggregate, non-identifiable trust indices and sentiment summaries. All processing is performed in accordance with applicable data protection laws and our Privacy Policy.

The Platform's proprietary Trust Score methodology, AI-generated summaries, and visual interfaces are the intellectual property of TrustyLeak. Unauthorized reproduction, redistribution, or commercial use of these elements without express written consent is strictly prohibited.

Users may not use automated tools, bots, or scripts to systematically extract, harvest, or replicate TrustyLeak's proprietary data, scores, or AI-generated summaries. Violations may result in legal action and permanent access termination.
