The fine print

Disclaimer

It’s opinion

Everything on samonshuffle.com is the personal opinion of Sam, an independent Canadian music fan. Reviews, scores and commentary are opinions about music and performances, offered for general interest and entertainment. They are not statements of fact about any person, and they are not professional, financial or legal advice.

Independent

Sam is not connected to, employed by, sponsored by or paid by any artist, band, record label, music publisher, promoter, venue, ticket seller, streaming service or other organization. No one pays for a review, a score or a placement, and no one sees a review before it’s published. If that ever changes for a particular post, the post will say so clearly at the top.

Facts and corrections

Factual details such as release dates, birthdays, hometowns and quotes are checked against reliable sources before publishing, but mistakes can happen. Information is provided as is, without warranty. If something is wrong, email music@samonshuffle.com and it will be reviewed and corrected.

Names, artwork and links

Artist names, song and album titles, cover art and trademarks belong to their owners. They are used only to identify the music being discussed, for the purposes of review and commentary. Links to YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify and other sites are provided for convenience; those sites are not controlled by Sam on Shuffle. Song lyrics are not published here unless they are supplied by a licensed lyrics provider.

Reader scores and suggestions

Readers’ scores are anonymous averages of ratings left by visitors and reflect their opinions, not Sam’s. Suggestions sent through the site may be read, used for ideas or ignored, and are not published with your name or email.

Ads

The site may show advertising to cover its costs. Ads are chosen by the ad network, not by Sam, and appearing next to a review is not an endorsement either way.
