### **1. Services Provided**

LooVaCast provides hosting services for internet radio stations using the AzuraCast platform. Our services include server resources, storage, bandwidth, and technical support to manage and broadcast your internet radio stream. We do not provide licensing for music content, advertising services, or any additional rights beyond the hosting service.

### **2. No Responsibility for Licensing or Royalties**

**2.1 Music Licensing Responsibility**
LooVaCast is not responsible for securing or managing music licenses, royalties, or any related compliance for the content you broadcast. If your radio station streams music, you are solely responsible for obtaining appropriate licenses from performance rights organizations such as ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, SoundExchange, or any other applicable licensing bodies.

**2.2 Talk Radio and Non-Music Formats**
If your radio station exclusively broadcasts talk radio, podcasts, or other non-music formats, you may not need to obtain music licenses. However, it is your responsibility to verify licensing requirements based on your specific content.

### **3. Reason for Low Rates**

Our hosting rates are intentionally kept low because:

- **3.1 No Advertising Charges**
LooVaCast does not charge for advertising, and we do not place any advertisements on your streams. You have complete control over your content without interruption from ads inserted by us.

- **3.2 No Licensing Fee Inclusions**
Our rates do not include any music licensing fees. As stated in Section 2, obtaining and managing music licenses is your responsibility if your stream includes music.
