Terms of Service

The agreement for using this Site and enjoying our productions.

Last updated: June 27, 2026

Welcome to royalstaropera.com (the “Site”), operated by The Royal Star Opera of New York (“we”, “us”). By accessing or using the Site and the operas, podcasts, and other content we publish (together, the “Content”), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Use of the Site

You may access and enjoy the Site and Content for your own personal, non-commercial use. You agree not to misuse the Site — for example, by attempting to disrupt it, accessing it through automated means that place an unreasonable load on it, or using it for any unlawful purpose.

Intellectual property

Each Royal Star production — including its libretto, musical score, animation, recording, artwork, and the design of this Site — is an original work and is owned by or licensed to The Royal Star Opera of New York, © The Royal Star Opera of New York. All rights are reserved except as expressly stated here.

The source stories we adapt are drawn from the public domain or from traditional material, and are reviewed for rights before production. Our adaptation of a story does not claim any rights in the underlying public-domain work itself — only in our original production of it.

What you may and may not do

  • Please do share links to our pages, videos, and podcast episodes freely, and tell people about the work.
  • Please don’t re-upload, redistribute, sell, or create derivative works from our productions without our written permission. For licensing or republication, contact support@royalstaropera.com.

Third-party platforms

We publish our operas on third-party platforms (such as video and podcast services) and link to them from the Site. Your use of those platforms is governed by their own terms and privacy policies, not ours.

Availability

We offer the Site and Content “as is” and “as available.” We may add, change, remove, or re-schedule productions and features at any time, and we do not guarantee that the Site will always be available or error-free.

Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Site and Content are provided without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Royal Star Opera of New York will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of your use of, or inability to use, the Site or Content.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. The “last updated” date above shows when they last changed; your continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the revised Terms.
