4.2 We may require identity/address verification to prevent fraud/money laundering and may undertake checks (including via third‑party providers).
4.3 We may change these Terms and/or the Site from time to time. Continued use indicates acceptance of the latest Terms. Review them regularly.

4.6 Reservations can be made only via the Site. You are responsible for selecting the correct studio/time and for payment.

4.8 By placing an Order, you authorise us (via our payment processor) to charge the payment method used for any fines, costs, losses, damages or expenses you cause or are responsible for (see clause 3 and Schedule A). This authorisation remains valid after the session and permits charging without further notice.

4.10 You may only use one voucher within any 24‑hour period. Vouchers must be used strictly in accordance with their terms (including eligibility and any minimum order value).
4.11 If you book a Legacy Studio outside the UK, local laws at the studio’s location will apply. If you are a Consumer, your mandatory local consumer protections still apply.
5. PAYMENT
5.1 A Reservation is accepted when payment is made and you receive an email confirmation. Fees are payable in full at booking.
5.2 We may reject a Reservation (e.g., Site error/technical issues). If we do so after payment, we will cancel and refund you.
5.3 No‑payment consequences; lien and withholding. Until we have received full, cleared payment for the applicable Reservation and all related charges, taxes, extras and fees (including any Schedule A amounts): (a) you have no right or licence to use, exploit, download, copy or receive delivery of any Recordings or Session Materials; (b) Legacy may withhold access to and/or retain possession of Session Materials (including by disabling downloads or exporting) and may suspend or cancel delivery; and (c) Legacy has a contractual lien over the Session Materials.
5.4 Ownership while unpaid; transfer on payment. To the fullest extent permitted by law, and without affecting any third‑party rights in underlying works, all Session Materials created or captured on Legacy systems during an unpaid session are deemed the property of Legacy until full, cleared payment is received. Upon receipt of full, cleared payment, ownership of the Recordings (but not Legacy’s Background IP such as presets, templates, room impulse responses, software licences or site data) shall automatically transfer to you, subject to these Terms and any third‑party rights. Your underlying musical and literary compositions and any pre‑existing materials you bring to the session remain yours at all times.
5.5 Non‑payment after session. If full payment remains outstanding 30 days after the session end time, Legacy may, at its discretion, (i) treat the Session Materials as abandoned and delete them; and/or (ii) retain the Session Materials and pursue recovery of fees and charges. Any attempt by you or your guests to use unpaid Session Materials — including but not limited to releasing, uploading, sharing, distributing or otherwise making them available on any social media, streaming service, digital platform or physical format — shall constitute a material breach of these Terms. Legacy reserves the right to pursue all available legal remedies, including injunctive relief, damages and recovery of legal costs, against you and any third party involved.
5.6 This does not limit any other remedies available to Legacy.
6. CANCELLATIONS, REFUNDS & LATE CANCELLATIONS
6.1 You may reschedule or cancel your Reservation via the Site 4+ hours before the start time. If you cancel, the value will be applied to your Account as credit. For cancellations 48+ hours before start, credit may be returned to your payment method at our discretion on request.
6.2 If you reschedule/cancel less than 4 hours before your start time, no refund/credit is offered. Late arrival does not entitle you to re‑schedule or refund.
6.3 If we reschedule or cancel, we will notify you and offer alternative time or a refund (except where cancellation is due to your breach of these Terms/House Rules).
6.4 1‑hour booking grace: cancel within 1 hour of booking for a full credit refund (not available if within 2 hours of the session start).
7. COMMUNICATIONS & USER CONTENT
7.1 We will communicate with you at the email address on your Account or via Site messaging/live chat. Notices to all customers may be posted on the Site. You are deemed to receive email notices when sent and Site notices when posted.

7.3 We may remove/reject any User Content and may process/store any User Content you submit.

You can end this licence at any time by deleting your Account (subject to any lawful retention/backup obligations).
8.4 Conditional rights in Session Materials. (a) While any amount in respect of a Reservation remains unpaid, all Session Materials are owned by Legacy and you receive no licence to use or exploit them. Legacy may withhold access/delivery and maintain a contractual lien. (b) On receipt of full, cleared payment, ownership of the Recordings (excluding Legacy Background IP and subject to third‑party rights) transfers to you and Legacy grants you a non‑exclusive, perpetual licence to any Legacy‑owned elements necessarily embedded in the Recordings solely to enable ordinary use and exploitation of those Recordings. (c) Nothing in this clause transfers ownership of your pre‑existing copyrights (e.g., underlying compositions/lyrics) to Legacy. (d) Unpaid Session Materials: For avoidance of doubt, any Session Materials that remain Legacy’s property due to non‑payment may be used, licensed, commercialised or otherwise exploited by Legacy at its sole discretion, without obligation to you. You acknowledge and agree that you shall have no claim, demand or recourse in respect of Legacy’s use of such unpaid Session Materials for any purpose whatsoever.
