Creator & Publisher Agreement

1. Binding agreement and capacity

This Agreement is between Generated Worlds LLC (“Generated Worlds,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and you and any entity you represent (“Creator”). By joining Creator Studio, accepting this Agreement, uploading, publishing, or monetizing content, Creator agrees to this Agreement and the Viewer Terms. You represent that you are an adult with authority to bind Creator and grant every right described here.

2. Independent creator; platform-only role

Creator is an independent publisher and is solely responsible for Creator Content, business conduct, audience claims, taxes, personnel, licensors, and legal compliance. Generated Worlds supplies hosting, discovery, access-control, fan connection, transaction, and monetization enablement. Generated Worlds sets the price of every paid episode; Creator decides which episodes are free and which are paid. Nothing creates employment, agency, partnership, fiduciary duty, joint venture, franchise, or exclusivity. Creator cannot bind or speak for Generated Worlds.

3. Creator’s comprehensive rights warranty

Creator represents, warrants, and covenants that Creator owns or has documented, worldwide rights sufficient to upload, host, reproduce, adapt, encode, translate, advertise, distribute, publicly display and perform, monetize, and authorize Platform use of every element of Creator Content.

• This includes scripts, prompts, source footage, training or reference materials supplied by Creator, datasets, images, music, sound recordings, voices, performances, characters, trademarks, locations, and artwork.
• Creator has valid releases and permissions for every identifiable person’s name, likeness, voice, biometric characteristics, performance, privacy, and publicity rights, including synthetic replicas.
• Creator Content and its creation, promotion, sale, and distribution do not infringe copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, contract, privacy, publicity, moral, labor, consumer-protection, or other rights.
• Creator will retain records proving chain of title, licenses, releases, AI-tool terms, and required consents, and provide them promptly on request.

3A. Content Creator does not own: payouts are held and go to the rightful owner

If we find that Creator is not the original holder of the rights to content published on Creator’s channel, every payout connected to that content is held. Once the rightful owner is established, those amounts are paid to the rightful owner and not to Creator. This covers earnings already credited to Creator’s ledger as well as earnings that accrue later, applies whether the finding comes from a rights claim, our own review, or Creator’s failure to produce the records required by Section 3, and survives suspension and termination. Creator has no claim to amounts routed to the rightful owner under this Section.

4. AI, synthetic media, and deepfakes

• Creator must accurately identify AI-generated or materially AI-manipulated content and preserve machine-readable provenance or labels where required.
• Creator must conspicuously disclose realistic synthetic depictions of actual people, places, events, or matters of public interest and obtain all necessary consent.
• Creator may not publish deceptive impersonations, non-consensual intimate imagery, fraudulent evidence, voter manipulation, or content designed to mislead people about authenticity.
• Creator is solely responsible for compliance with AI, deepfake, biometric, election, advertising, and labeling laws in every territory where Creator targets or distributes content.

5. Prohibited content

Generated Worlds publishes drama, and drama is about adults doing difficult things. Mature themes, moral darkness, desire, betrayal, and conflict are welcome and are most of what does well here. The list below is not about subject matter. It is about depiction, consent, and rights.

• PORNOGRAPHY. Sexually explicit depiction — visible genitalia, explicit sexual acts, or content whose primary purpose is sexual arousal — in any form, including animated, illustrated, and AI-generated. Sexual tension, implied encounters, and adult relationships are permitted; explicit depiction is not.
• MINORS. Child sexual abuse material, sexualization or exploitation of anyone under 18 whether real, fictional, synthetic, or age-ambiguous, grooming, trafficking, or content that endangers a child. This is reported, not merely removed.
• GRAPHIC VIOLENCE. Gore, torture, mutilation, real footage of death or serious injury, cruelty to people or animals, and violence depicted for its own sake. Stylized and consequential violence in a story is permitted; dwelling on the injury is not.
• REAL PEOPLE WITHOUT CONSENT. Any identifiable person’s face, voice, or likeness — synthetic or filmed — without documented consent. Non-consensual sexual content and non-consensual intimate imagery of any kind.
• HATE AND HARASSMENT. Hateful conduct or dehumanization based on protected characteristics, credible threats, targeted harassment, instructions for serious wrongdoing, or glorification of terrorism.
• CONTENT YOU DO NOT OWN. Illegal, infringing, defamatory, fraudulent, privacy-invasive, malicious, or rights-violating content, including re-uploads of work you did not make or license.
• DECEPTION AND FRAUD. Undisclosed paid endorsements, deceptive claims, scams, counterfeit offers, pyramid schemes, or manipulation of reviews, views, follows, or purchases.
• PLATFORM ABUSE. Malware, hidden tracking, scraped personal data, unauthorized confidential information, or content intended to bypass security controls.

5A. Enforcement of the content rules

We review channels and we review what is published on them, using automated review systems, human review, or both. Where we find a breach of Section 5 we may remove the content and suspend the channel — publishing, editing, and payouts stop, the channel and everything published on it is removed from the Platform, and the creator is told which rule was breached. Breaches involving minors, non-consensual intimate imagery, or unlawful material are actioned immediately and reported to the appropriate authorities, and the account is terminated rather than suspended. Suspension is not a strike system to be exhausted: a first breach of the categories above can end a channel.

5B. Our exclusive right to remove content and end accounts

Generated Worlds has the sole and exclusive right, exercisable at our sole discretion and at any time, with or without prior notice, to remove, withhold, restrict, de-index, disable, or permanently delete any Creator Content, and to suspend, restrict, close, or permanently terminate any channel, studio, or account. We may do so whether or not the content or conduct breaches these Terms, and no finding, hearing, warning, strike, notice period, or opportunity to cure is a precondition to any of it. This right belongs to us alone; no creator, viewer, advertiser, or third party may compel us to publish, restore, or keep publishing anything.

REMOVAL MAY BE PERMANENT AND IRREVERSIBLE. Where we remove content permanently we delete the database records and the underlying media files. There is no archive, recycle bin, restoration service, or backup we will retrieve on request, and we are under no obligation to return, export, or supply a copy of removed content to Creator or to anyone else. Creator is solely responsible for keeping their own master copies, and must not rely on the Platform as storage or as a backup of their work.

NO COMPENSATION IS OWED FOR A REMOVAL. Removal, suspension, closure, or termination does not entitle Creator to damages, lost profits, lost audience, restoration, or a refund of anything, and does not create any liability on our part. Amounts already credited to Creator's ledger before the action remain payable to Creator subject to Sections 3A and 9 to 11.

REINSTATEMENT IS NOT GUARANTEED. Where we close a studio we may, but need not, allow the account to apply for a studio again, and we may refuse any such application at our sole discretion. Where we terminate an account we may refuse to deal with that person on the Platform permanently, including through any new or additional account.

6. Sponsorships and commercial claims

Creator is the advertiser and endorser for Creator’s promotions. Creator must clearly and conspicuously disclose material connections, sponsorships, affiliate relationships, gifts, and paid placements in the content itself where required. Creator must possess substantiation for objective claims and may not rely solely on a Platform disclosure tool.

7. License to Generated Worlds

Creator retains ownership, subject to third-party rights. Creator grants Generated Worlds and its affiliates a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free license during the Agreement and for a reasonable wind-down period to host, store, cache, reproduce, encode, transcode, adapt for formatting and accessibility, translate metadata, distribute, publicly perform and display, market, promote, excerpt, create thumbnails and previews from, and otherwise operate Creator Content and the Creator channel. The license includes use of Creator names, marks, likenesses, trailers, screenshots, and metadata for Platform promotion. We do not obtain a license to train general-purpose generative models on Creator Content unless Creator separately opts in.

8. Publishing control and moderation

Creator decides what to submit, but publication is not guaranteed. We may review, reject, classify, label, age-restrict, demonetize, reduce distribution, remove, permanently delete, preserve, or disclose content; suspend uploads or payouts; and suspend, close, or terminate channels. We may do so for law, rights protection, safety, payment risk, policy enforcement, or Platform integrity, and also at our sole discretion under Section 5B. We do not assume Creator’s duty to review or clear content.

AUTOMATED REVIEW. We operate automated systems, including AI classifiers, that examine uploaded video, audio, images, titles, descriptions, and metadata for content that does not comply with these Terms and the Community Guidelines. Those systems may flag, hold, restrict, or remove content without a person having looked at it first, and Creator agrees to that processing as a condition of publishing here. Automated review is not a guarantee: it does not catch everything, a decision it makes is not an assessment of Creator's work or character, and it never transfers to us Creator's own responsibility under Section 3 for what Creator publishes. A creator affected by an automated decision may ask a person to review it by replying to the decision notice.

9. Pricing, fan transactions, and refunds

• Creator authorizes us and our payment providers to facilitate charges, access grants, refunds, disputes, taxes, reserves, and payout reporting.
• Creator must describe paid access accurately and deliver advertised content. Creator bears the economic cost allocated to Creator for refunds, reversals, chargebacks, fraud, taxes, and rights claims attributable to Creator.
• We may adjust or reverse ledger entries, withhold reserves, delay payout, or offset future earnings to address refunds, chargebacks, suspected fraud, legal process, negative balances, or Creator breach.
• Generated Worlds sets, and may change, the price of paid episodes and of platform-wide passes such as Unlimited Week. A change applies to purchases made after it.
• Creator may not move transactions off-platform to evade fees or mislead fans.

10. Revenue share and no earnings guarantee

The applicable revenue share shown in Creator Studio or a separate signed deal controls. Your share is calculated on NET revenue: what a viewer paid, less the payment processor’s fee on that payment. On a typical card payment that fee is about 2.9% plus 30¢, and it is charged by the processor rather than retained by us. Your Creator Studio earnings page shows the full calculation for every sale — what the viewer paid, what processing took, and what your share was computed on.

UNLIMITED WEEK. For each paid week of a viewer’s Unlimited Week, the creator pool is the same revenue share that applies to token sales (currently 80%) of that week’s net revenue. The pool is divided among creators in proportion to the time that viewer spent watching each creator’s paid episodes during that week, as recorded by our servers. Free episodes, a creator’s own episodes, and staff accounts do not count, and time on an episode is capped at its length. If no paid episode was watched that week, no pool is paid. The share is shown as pending while the week runs and becomes payable 7 days after the week ends. A week refunded or disputed before then pays nothing; after then it is reversed under Section 9.

“Revenue” may also exclude taxes, refunds, chargebacks, fraud, promotional credits, currency costs, reserves, and other disclosed transaction costs. Estimates are not final until settled. We make no promise of minimum views, placement, followers, conversion, revenue, payout timing, or continued monetization eligibility.

11. Taxes, identity, and payouts

• Creator is solely responsible for registration, licenses, invoices, tax filings, tax payments, and classification of Creator’s business and workers.
• Creator must complete identity, sanctions, anti-money-laundering, tax, and payment-provider verification and keep payout information accurate.
• We may withhold amounts or information when required by law and may decline or pause payouts if verification is incomplete or risk is identified.
• Payouts connected to content Creator does not own are held and paid to the rightful owner under Section 3A.

12. Fan data and privacy

Creator receives only data made available through authorized Platform features and may use it solely to manage the Creator channel and relationship permitted by law. Creator may not scrape, sell, enrich, re-identify, export, spam, or independently market to users without a lawful basis and required consent. Creator is responsible for Creator’s own privacy notices and security controls for data Creator collects outside the Platform.

13. Security and platform integrity

• Do not share accounts, signed URLs, credentials, or private APIs; introduce malware; scrape; reverse engineer; manipulate metrics; self-deal; launder funds; or evade enforcement.
• Promptly report compromised accounts, leaked content, fraudulent transactions, and security vulnerabilities.

14. Copyright notices and repeat infringement

Creator authorizes us to process notices and counter-notices, disable content, share legally required information, and terminate repeat infringers. Creator must not submit a counter-notice without a good-faith basis and acceptance of the legally required jurisdiction and service provisions.

15. Creator indemnity and defense

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CREATOR WILL DEFEND, INDEMNIFY, AND HOLD HARMLESS GENERATED WORLDS, ITS AFFILIATES, PAYMENT PROVIDERS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, LICENSEES, AND THEIR PERSONNEL FROM ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS, INVESTIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, JUDGMENTS, SETTLEMENTS, PENALTIES, TAXES, CHARGEBACKS, AND REASONABLE LEGAL FEES ARISING FROM CREATOR CONTENT; CREATOR’S BUSINESS, PROMOTIONS, FANS, PERSONNEL, OR LICENSORS; ALLEGED INFRINGEMENT OR VIOLATION OF RIGHTS; CREATOR’S TAXES; OR CREATOR’S BREACH. We may control the defense and settlement, and Creator will cooperate and may not settle a claim imposing liability or obligations on us without consent.

16. Disclaimers and limitation

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND DO NOT GUARANTEE AVAILABILITY, SECURITY, DISCOVERY, MODERATION ACCURACY, DATA RETENTION, EXCLUSIVITY, OR REVENUE. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, LOST CONTENT, LOST AUDIENCE, OR REPUTATIONAL HARM. OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO CREATOR WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF US$100 OR PLATFORM FEES RETAINED FROM CREATOR TRANSACTIONS DURING THE SIX MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM. Non-waivable liability remains unaffected.

17. Suspension, termination, and reserves

Either party may end the relationship, subject to outstanding obligations. We may immediately suspend content, monetization, access, or payouts for suspected breach, fraud, sanctions, rights disputes, safety risk, or legal process, and may exercise the rights in Section 5B at any time. On termination, fan access and content availability may end; we may retain records and content copies as required for legal, accounting, backup, dispute, and enforcement purposes, and we may equally delete them permanently. Accrued payment adjustments, licenses needed for wind-down, warranties, indemnities, limitations, and dispute provisions survive.

WHAT A SUSPENSION DOES. While a channel is suspended it is removed from the Platform: the channel page and everything published on it stop being served, and Creator's access to the studio is limited to the payout page. A suspension does not delete anything, does not affect Creator's viewing account, and does not affect amounts already credited to Creator's ledger, which remain payable except where Section 3A applies. A suspension is lifted only by us and does not expire on its own.

18. Changes and priority

We may update this Agreement with reasonable notice. Material changes requiring consent will be presented for renewed acceptance. A separately signed creator deal controls only where it expressly conflicts with this Agreement.

19. Disputes and legal review

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Generated Worlds LLC is formed, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules, and claims will be brought in the courts of that jurisdiction. Creator must contact legal@generatedworlds.com and allow 30 days for informal resolution before filing a claim. Where Creator is established in a market whose platform-to-business rules grant additional non-waivable rights, those rights apply in addition to this section.
