Terms of Use
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Demagify (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not access or use the Service. The Service is operated by the Demagify Project (“Demagify”, “we”, “us”).
2. Description of the Service
Demagify is an informational and educational transparency utility designed to help music listeners audit Spotify playlists against documented, verified public records of political engagement, campaign funding, and endorsements. The Service is provided free of charge for personal, non-commercial informational purposes.
3. Evidentiary Standard & Public Record Transparency
Demagify adheres to a strict journalistic and evidentiary standard grounded in verified public documentation:
- Primary Documentation & First-Party Statements: Classifications are derived exclusively from verified primary public records, including Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings, official campaign press releases, documented rally appearances, and first-party statements published directly by the artist via verified social media profiles (e.g., X, Instagram, Truth Social, TikTok, YouTube).
- Zero Rumors or Third-Party Hearsay: We do not publish unverified gossip, secondhand blog commentary, paparazzi reports, or private conversations. Third-party commentary about an artist does not qualify; the public record must originate directly from the artist’s own official actions, statements, or legally binding filings.
- Corrections and Inquiries: If you believe an entry contains a factual error or misattribution, please submit documented documentary evidence to [email protected]. We review verified corrections promptly.
4. Independent Third-Party Service & Spotify Disclaimer

Demagify is NOT affiliated with, associated with, authorized by, endorsed by, sponsored by, or in any way officially connected with Spotify AB, Spotify USA Inc., or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates.
