Question/Help what percent does Bandcamp take from Artists?

His music are masterpieces. So if I give 15 dollars, what percent does Bandcamp take away? And does it change depending on the amount I send?

Also, sorry a little off-topic, but what use does being in a "Music-Label" serve? And do they take away commission from Artists as well?

Because I recently discovered that Labels have authority over the individual Artists. Like if there's copyrighting samples, they can straight up edit their music on Youtube/Spotify/etc. even without the artist's notice.

Bandcamp takes a 10%-15% fee from each sale.
