6.2 Original Creator Content: If you filmed or edited your own original content for a CPM Campaign, you retain ownership of the clip. By submitting it, you grant Content Rewards Inc. and the specific brand a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, edit, repost, advertise, and redistribute the clip as described in Section 6.3. For Retainer Campaigns, content ownership is governed by the Retainer Program Terms (see Section 13 of the Retainer Program Terms), which supersede this section.
6.3 License Grant: By participating in a Campaign and uploading a clip, you grant Content Rewards Inc. and the specific brand a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, edit, repost, advertise, and redistribute your clip publicly and privately, on any platform, in perpetuity.

7.3 Violations of this section can impact payouts, Trust Score, and account standing.
8. CAMPAIGN RULES
8.1 All Campaign instructions must be followed exactly as specified in the Campaign brief within the Content Rewards platform.
8.2 If a clip is posted incorrectly, missing required elements, or does not comply with the brief, it may be rejected without payment. However, Brands may only reject submissions based on requirements explicitly stated in the Campaign Requirements and/or Campaign Description within the Content Rewards platform. You are NOT obligated to follow requirements communicated solely through external channels (including but not limited to Discord announcements, community chats, courses, emails, or any other medium outside the platform). If a Brand rejects your submission based on criteria not documented within the platform, you may appeal the rejection and the submission may be subject to auto-approval.
8.3 If your clip is removed by TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, or any other platform for policy violations, it becomes ineligible for payout.
8.4 Content Rewards Inc. and brands may change, pause, or remove Campaigns at any time without prior notice.
8.5 SUBMISSION CUTOFF: Content Rewards reserves the right to close a campaign to new submissions once the campaign reaches 90% budget utilization. Budget utilization is calculated based on approved submissions and their accumulated views relative to the campaign’s CPM rate. Creators may not submit to campaigns that have been closed due to budget utilization.
8.6 SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM COMPLIANCE: You represent and warrant that all content posted in connection with a Campaign complies with the terms and conditions of the social media platform on which it is posted. Content Rewards relies on the content moderation policies of underlying social media platforms and does not independently screen content for compliance with platform-specific policies. If a social media platform removes, restricts, or flags your content for policy violations, that content may become ineligible for payout and may be removed from Content Rewards.
9. PAYOUTS AND CLAWBACKS
9.1 Payouts are calculated per day per video, based on views from that specific day only.
9.2 Earnings are only considered final after a three (3) day validation window for that day’s views.
9.3 Brands and Content Rewards Inc. may claw back earnings linked to suspicious or invalid activity. Clawbacks can occur per day and/or per video, not only at campaign level.
9.4 Content Rewards Inc. may withhold, delay, or adjust payouts if fraud, botting, or policy violations are suspected.
9.5 Creators acknowledge that payout amounts shown are provisional until fraud checks and brand review are complete.
9.6 Once a payout has been processed, transferred, and cleared the validation window, it cannot be clawed back except in cases of documented fraud discovered within thirty (30) days of payout processing. All clawback requests are subject to review by the Content Rewards team, who will respond within ten (10) business days of submission.
9.7 SUSPECTED ACTIVITY REVIEW: When earnings are withheld due to suspected invalid activity under Section 9.4, Content Rewards will complete its review within fourteen (14) business days. If the review does not result in a documented finding of fraud or invalid activity within this period, the hold will be released and earnings will proceed to payout. Creators will be notified of the outcome of any review through the platform.
10. SUBMISSION REVIEW AND AUTO-APPROVAL
10.1 Standard Review Window: Brands have seven (7) days from submission to approve, reject, or request revision.
10.2 If a brand does not act within this window, the submission may be auto-approved and payouts proceed.

10.4 For CPM campaigns, views continue to be tracked and paid even after approval, until the campaign budget is exhausted.
10.5 Brand Appeal Rights: Brands may appeal an auto-approved submission within fourteen (14) days if malpractice or policy violations are discovered. Appeals require documented evidence.
11. REFUND PAYOUT PROTECTION
11.1 In the event a brand requests a campaign refund while creator submissions are pending review, creators with high Trust Scores may still receive payment for unreviewed submissions.
11.2 Creators with a Trust Score at or above the platform threshold (currently 80%) are eligible for refund payout protection, provided their submission’s Bot Score does not indicate likely artificial engagement.
11.3 VIEW COUNT FREEZE: Upon campaign refund, view counts are frozen at the exact moment of refund. Only views accumulated up to the point of refund are counted for payout calculations. No views after the refund timestamp will be credited.
11.4 BRAND DISPUTE WINDOW: When a campaign is refunded, brands have seven (7) days from the refund date to dispute any creator payouts. After 7 days, payouts to eligible creators are final.
11.5 If a submission’s Bot Score exceeds the suspicious threshold, the creator is not eligible for refund payout protection regardless of Trust Score.
11.6 When multiple eligible creators have unreviewed submissions and remaining budget is limited, payouts are prioritized by submission time (first submitted, first paid).
11.7 The Trust Score threshold for refund payout protection may be adjusted at Content Rewards Inc.’s discretion.
12. RETAINER CAMPAIGNS
12.1 RETAINER PROGRAM: In addition to CPM-based campaigns, Content Rewards offers Retainer Campaigns where creators may be engaged by brands for recurring deliverables over a defined term. Retainer Campaigns are governed by these Terms and the supplemental Retainer Program Terms, which are incorporated by reference.
12.2 ELIGIBILITY: Participation in Retainer Campaigns is not guaranteed. Brands may restrict participation based on any lawful criteria, and Content Rewards reserves the right to approve or deny creator participation in any Retainer Campaign at its sole discretion.

14. MULTI-ACCOUNT AND NETWORK BEHAVIOR
14.1 Operating multiple Content Rewards accounts or cross-posting identical content across many accounts solely to maximize payouts is prohibited.
14.2 REPOST LIMIT: The same video or clip — meaning identical content with no modifications (no new captions, no re-editing, no additional creative changes) — may not be posted to more than five (5) different social media accounts for the same Campaign unless the Creator has received prior written approval from the Brand or Agency operating the Campaign. Written approval must be documented within the Content Rewards platform. Submissions exceeding this limit without approval will be rejected and may result in forfeiture of earnings for all duplicate submissions.
14.3 COLLABORATIVE POSTS: Submitting content through collaborative post features (e.g., Instagram Collab Reels, co-author posts, or equivalent features on any platform) is prohibited unless explicitly permitted in the Campaign brief. Where a collaborative post causes the same video and view count to appear on multiple accounts, only one submission per unique piece of content is permitted. Any attempt to submit the same views or engagement across multiple accounts through collaborative features will be treated as fraud under Section 3.1(i).
14.4 Content Rewards Inc. reserves the right to aggregate behavior across related accounts for fraud and botting evaluation and enforcement.
14.5 Violations may result in termination of all related accounts and forfeiture of all earnings.

Data deletion requests will be processed in accordance with applicable law; however, Content Rewards may retain data necessary for legal compliance, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and enforcement of these Terms. Aggregated or de-identified data is not subject to deletion requests.
16. APPEAL PROCESS
16.1 Creators have the right to appeal:
(a) Flagged videos

The restricted period is six (6) months for CPM campaign relationships and twelve (12) months for Retainer Campaign relationships, measured from the date of the last approved submission or deliverable.
18.2 This restriction applies to all Brands with whom the Creator has completed campaign participation through Content Rewards, as defined in Section 18.1. Browsing campaigns, messaging, or other platform activity that does not result in an approved submission does not trigger this restriction.
18.3 Violation of this non-circumvention clause entitles Content Rewards to liquidated damages equal to the greater of one thousand dollars ($1,000) or two times (2x) the platform fees that would have been owed on the circumvented transaction, plus recovery of any additional fees that would have been owed to the platform.
18.4 Creators acknowledge this restriction is reasonable and necessary to protect Content Rewards’ business interests and the integrity of the marketplace.

Content Rewards relies on representations from both Brands and Creators regarding legal compliance (Section 1.5) and on the content moderation policies of the social media platforms where content is posted.
19.7 Permitting a Brand to operate a Campaign on the platform does not constitute Content Rewards’ endorsement, approval, or validation of that Brand’s business, products, services, or regulatory status. Content Rewards reserves all rights to remove Campaigns or content upon learning of potential legal violations, but assumes no obligation to proactively investigate or monitor the legality of any Brand or Campaign.
20. FTC COMPLIANCE

You are NOT obligated to follow requirements communicated solely through external channels (including but not limited to Discord announcements, community chats, courses, emails, or any other medium outside the platform). If a Brand rejects your submission based on criteria not documented within the platform, you may appeal the rejection and the submission may be subject to auto-approval.
8.3 If your clip is removed by TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, or any other platform for policy violations, it becomes ineligible for payout.
8.4 Content Rewards Inc. and brands may change, pause, or remove Campaigns at any time without prior notice.
8.5 SUBMISSION CUTOFF: Content Rewards reserves the right to close a campaign to new submissions once the campaign reaches 90% budget utilization. Budget utilization is calculated based on approved submissions and their accumulated views relative to the campaign’s CPM rate. Creators may not submit to campaigns that have been closed due to budget utilization.
8.6 SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM COMPLIANCE: You represent and warrant that all content posted in connection with a Campaign complies with the terms and conditions of the social media platform on which it is posted. Content Rewards relies on the content moderation policies of underlying social media platforms and does not independently screen content for compliance with platform-specific policies. If a social media platform removes, restricts, or flags your content for policy violations, that content may become ineligible for payout and may be removed from Content Rewards.
9. PAYOUTS AND CLAWBACKS
9.1 Payouts are calculated per day per video, based on views from that specific day only.
9.2 Earnings are only considered final after a three (3) day validation window for that day’s views.
9.3 Brands and Content Rewards Inc. may claw back earnings linked to suspicious or invalid activity. Clawbacks can occur per day and/or per video, not only at campaign level.
9.4 Content Rewards Inc. may withhold, delay, or adjust payouts if fraud, botting, or policy violations are suspected.
9.5 Creators acknowledge that payout amounts shown are provisional until fraud checks and brand review are complete.
9.6 Once a payout has been processed, transferred, and cleared the validation window, it cannot be clawed back except in cases of documented fraud discovered within thirty (30) days of payout processing. All clawback requests are subject to review by the Content Rewards team, who will respond within ten (10) business days of submission.
9.7 SUSPECTED ACTIVITY REVIEW: When earnings are withheld due to suspected invalid activity under Section 9.4, Content Rewards will complete its review within fourteen (14) business days. If the review does not result in a documented finding of fraud or invalid activity within this period, the hold will be released and earnings will proceed to payout. Creators will be notified of the outcome of any review through the platform.
10. SUBMISSION REVIEW AND AUTO-APPROVAL
10.1 Standard Review Window: Brands have seven (7) days from submission to approve, reject, or request revision.
10.2 If a brand does not act within this window, the submission may be auto-approved and payouts proceed.
10.3 Brands are responsible for properly reviewing submissions within the window. Content Rewards Inc. is not liable for brand negligence in reviewing within the set period.
10.4 For CPM campaigns, views continue to be tracked and paid even after approval, until the campaign budget is exhausted.
10.5 Brand Appeal Rights: Brands may appeal an auto-approved submission within fourteen (14) days if malpractice or policy violations are discovered. Appeals require documented evidence.
11. REFUND PAYOUT PROTECTION
11.1 In the event a brand requests a campaign refund while creator submissions are pending review, creators with high Trust Scores may still receive payment for unreviewed submissions.
11.2 Creators with a Trust Score at or above the platform threshold (currently 80%) are eligible for refund payout protection, provided their submission’s Bot Score does not indicate likely artificial engagement.
11.3 VIEW COUNT FREEZE: Upon campaign refund, view counts are frozen at the exact moment of refund. Only views accumulated up to the point of refund are counted for payout calculations. No views after the refund timestamp will be credited.
11.4 BRAND DISPUTE WINDOW: When a campaign is refunded, brands have seven (7) days from the refund date to dispute any creator payouts. After 7 days, payouts to eligible creators are final.
11.5 If a submission’s Bot Score exceeds the suspicious threshold, the creator is not eligible for refund payout protection regardless of Trust Score.
11.6 When multiple eligible creators have unreviewed submissions and remaining budget is limited, payouts are prioritized by submission time (first submitted, first paid).
11.7 The Trust Score threshold for refund payout protection may be adjusted at Content Rewards Inc.’s discretion.
12. RETAINER CAMPAIGNS
12.1 RETAINER PROGRAM: In addition to CPM-based campaigns, Content Rewards offers Retainer Campaigns where creators may be engaged by brands for recurring deliverables over a defined term. Retainer Campaigns are governed by these Terms and the supplemental Retainer Program Terms, which are incorporated by reference.
12.2 ELIGIBILITY: Participation in Retainer Campaigns is not guaranteed. Brands may restrict participation based on any lawful criteria, and Content Rewards reserves the right to approve or deny creator participation in any Retainer Campaign at its sole discretion.
12.3 ACCEPTANCE: By accepting a Retainer Campaign, you agree to fulfill the deliverables specified in the campaign terms. Failure to deliver may result in reduced payment, campaign termination, Trust Score impact, or account suspension.
12.4 PAYMENT: Retainer payments are made according to the schedule defined in the specific campaign. Payments are subject to deliverable approval and compliance with all platform terms.
12.5 TERMINATION: Retainer Campaigns may be terminated by the brand, by Content Rewards, or by you, subject to the terms defined in the Retainer Program Terms. Content Rewards reserves the right to terminate any Retainer Campaign immediately for breach, fraud, or policy violations, with forfeiture of pending payments.
12.6 NON-CIRCUMVENTION: Retainer Campaign participation is subject to the Non-Circumvention clause in Section 18 of these Terms. You may not work directly with Brands outside of Content Rewards for twelve (12) months following completed Retainer Campaign participation.
12.7 DATA RIGHTS: By participating in Retainer Campaigns, you grant Content Rewards a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to collect, aggregate, analyze, and use all data generated through your Retainer Campaign participation for any lawful business purpose.

14. MULTI-ACCOUNT AND NETWORK BEHAVIOR
14.1 Operating multiple Content Rewards accounts or cross-posting identical content across many accounts solely to maximize payouts is prohibited.
14.2 REPOST LIMIT: The same video or clip — meaning identical content with no modifications (no new captions, no re-editing, no additional creative changes) — may not be posted to more than five (5) different social media accounts for the same Campaign unless the Creator has received prior written approval from the Brand or Agency operating the Campaign. Written approval must be documented within the Content Rewards platform. Submissions exceeding this limit without approval will be rejected and may result in forfeiture of earnings for all duplicate submissions.
14.3 COLLABORATIVE POSTS: Submitting content through collaborative post features (e.g., Instagram Collab Reels, co-author posts, or equivalent features on any platform) is prohibited unless explicitly permitted in the Campaign brief. Where a collaborative post causes the same video and view count to appear on multiple accounts, only one submission per unique piece of content is permitted. Any attempt to submit the same views or engagement across multiple accounts through collaborative features will be treated as fraud under Section 3.1(i).
14.4 Content Rewards Inc. reserves the right to aggregate behavior across related accounts for fraud and botting evaluation and enforcement.
14.5 Violations may result in termination of all related accounts and forfeiture of all earnings.

Data deletion requests will be processed in accordance with applicable law; however, Content Rewards may retain data necessary for legal compliance, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and enforcement of these Terms. Aggregated or de-identified data is not subject to deletion requests.
16. APPEAL PROCESS
16.1 Creators have the right to appeal:

18. NON-CIRCUMVENTION
18.1 For a period following any completed campaign participation (approved submission with payout issued, or approved Retainer Campaign deliverable) with a Brand through the Content Rewards platform, Creators may not engage in, accept, or enter into any direct business relationship with that Brand outside of Content Rewards for paid content creation, UGC production, or influencer marketing services of the type performed on the platform. The restricted period is six (6) months for CPM campaign relationships and twelve (12) months for Retainer Campaign relationships, measured from the date of the last approved submission or deliverable.
18.2 This restriction applies to all Brands with whom the Creator has completed campaign participation through Content Rewards, as defined in Section 18.1. Browsing campaigns, messaging, or other platform activity that does not result in an approved submission does not trigger this restriction.
18.3 Violation of this non-circumvention clause entitles Content Rewards to liquidated damages equal to the greater of one thousand dollars ($1,000) or two times (2x) the platform fees that would have been owed on the circumvented transaction, plus recovery of any additional fees that would have been owed to the platform.
18.4 Creators acknowledge this restriction is reasonable and necessary to protect Content Rewards’ business interests and the integrity of the marketplace.

Content Rewards is not responsible for determining whether any Campaign, Brand, or content complies with applicable laws. Content Rewards relies on representations from both Brands and Creators regarding legal compliance (Section 1.5) and on the content moderation policies of the social media platforms where content is posted.
19.7 Permitting a Brand to operate a Campaign on the platform does not constitute Content Rewards’ endorsement, approval, or validation of that Brand’s business, products, services, or regulatory status. Content Rewards reserves all rights to remove Campaigns or content upon learning of potential legal violations, but assumes no obligation to proactively investigate or monitor the legality of any Brand or Campaign.
20. FTC COMPLIANCE
