Interpretive note: The clause is conditioned on the Output being 'owned by Suno,' meaning Outputs not owned by Suno at the time of assignment are not covered. This condition is recorded but does not alter the primary claim.
Pro and Premier tier subscribers own the Outputs generated from their Submissions, to the extent those Outputs were owned by Suno; free and Basic tier users do not receive this ownership transfer.
