If I deliver AI-generated music to Deezer through a distributor, what do Deezer's own help pages say will happen to it, is there anything I declare, and what can I do about a wrong tag?

Deezer publishes one artist-facing help article (Deezer for Creators, system dates created 2025-11-10, edited 2026-03-29, updated 2026-07-23) beyond its newsroom: detection and tagging run automatically at upload, tagging is mandatory, tagged tracks "may be excluded" from algorithmic recommendations (and, in an FAQ of the same article, "are excluded"), royalties are described as unchanged, and a wrong tag is appealed through the distributor first, then a support ticket after 5 business days. No uploader declaration field is described; artists are only encouraged to be transparent. The tagging scope is stated two ways in the same article (tool use or significant AI elements versus primarily fully AI-generated tracks). A separate supplier or delivery policy on AI was not found in the 21-article creator help centre, the 16-article business help centre or the consumer terms.

Curator qualifications: All quoted excerpts located; Deezer for Creators: automatic, mandatory tagging; tagged tracks 'may be excluded' from algorithmic recommendations. Scope conflict (any AI use vs mainly fully generated) kept. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
