Runlock Creator PortalWelcome to the Runlock Creator Platform!
These Creator Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legally binding contract between you ("Creator," "you," "your") and Runlock ("Company," "we," "us," "our").
These Terms govern your access to and use of the Runlock Creator Platform (the "Platform") and your participation in our affiliate program.
By creating an account on the Platform or by clicking "I Agree," you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms in their entirety.
These Terms will always be available to read at creator.runlock.app/terms. Our Privacy Policy is available at creator.runlock.app/privacy.
1. Your Relationship with Runlock: Independent Contractor
Your relationship with Runlock is strictly that of an independent contractor. Nothing in these Terms creates an employer-employee relationship, partnership, agency, or joint venture. You are solely responsible for all taxes and statutory obligations arising from your earnings.
2. Your Account and Responsibilities
To use the Platform, you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate and complete information and to keep this information updated. You are responsible for safeguarding your password and for all activities that occur under your account.
3. Content Creation, Review Process, and Guidelines
a. You agree to create and publish original content ("Posts") promoting the Runlock mobile application.
b. All Posts submitted through the Platform must strictly adhere to the Runlock Post Guidelines, which are available at https://creator.runlock.app/guidelines and are incorporated by reference into these Terms.
c. Evaluation Window and Review: After you publish and submit a Post on the Platform, it will enter an "Evaluation Window" (typically 7 days, unless stated otherwise in the applicable Campaign Brief). This period allows your Post to naturally accumulate views and engagement metrics. Only after this Evaluation Window has concluded will your Post be forwarded to our moderation team for official review.
d. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject any Post that does not comply with the Post Guidelines or the specific Campaign Brief. A rejected Post will not be eligible for compensation, and the reason for rejection will be made available to you on the Platform.
4. Creator Representations and Conduct
You represent and warrant that all statements in your Posts will be truthful and will not contain any false or misleading claims. You must clearly and conspicuously disclose your paid partnership with Runlock in all Posts, in accordance with all applicable advertising laws and regulations (e.g., using #ad or #sponsored).
5. Compensation, Campaign Briefs, and Payment
a. Campaign Briefs: Each individual marketing campaign you participate in will have its own specific "Campaign Brief." A Campaign Brief outlines the unique commercial terms for that specific campaign, which may include, but are not limited to: Rate Per Mille (RPM), Maximum Earnings Cap per Post, the length of the Evaluation Window, and a Minimum View Threshold.
b. Agreement of Terms: The terms of a Campaign Brief will be mutually agreed upon in writing (e.g., via Discord). These terms become final and binding when they are documented and made visible to you within your dashboard on the Runlock Creator Platform. The terms displayed on the Platform shall supersede any prior discussions.
c. Payouts: Once your Post has completed its Evaluation Window and has been officially approved by our moderation team, your earnings for that Post will be credited to your Platform balance. You may request a payout at any time, provided that your total available balance for approved Posts has surpassed the minimum threshold of $50 USD. Upon requesting a payout, funds will be processed and issued to your chosen payout method (e.g., Wise, PayPal, or IBAN Bank Transfer).
6. Reporting and Analytics Verification
To ensure fair compensation, verify view counts, and confirm compliance with our anti-botting policies, you agree to provide us with access to your native social media platform analytics upon request for any submitted Post. This may include, but is not limited to, providing screenshots or screen recordings of data showing audience demographics, view sources, and audience retention rates. Failure to provide requested analytics in a timely manner may result in the rejection of the associated Post or a delay in payment.
7. Content License Grant to Runlock
By submitting a Post on the Platform, you grant Runlock a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, and display the Post, in whole or in part, for any marketing, advertising, and promotional purposes, including paid advertising, across any and all media channels.
8. Confidentiality
You agree to keep confidential any non-public information that Runlock may share with you, including information about unreleased features, business strategies, or campaign details.
9. Privacy
Your use of the Platform is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect and use your data. By agreeing to these Terms, you also agree to the terms of the Privacy Policy.
10. Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without cause. You may stop using the Platform at any time. Upon termination, Runlock will pay any outstanding compensation owed for compliant and approved Posts published prior to the termination date.
11. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law
a. Governing Law: These Terms shall be governed by the laws of Romania.
b. Informal Resolution: We encourage you to contact us first at contact@runlock.app to resolve any dispute.
c. Binding Arbitration: If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, you agree that any dispute or claim arising out of these Terms shall be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court. This arbitration will be conducted in Romania under its applicable rules. By agreeing to this, you are waiving your right to a jury trial.
12. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES PAID BY US TO YOU UNDER THESE TERMS IN THE SIX (6) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
13. General Provisions
a. Entire Agreement: These Terms, along with your Campaign Briefs on the Platform and our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Runlock.
b. Changes to Terms: We may modify these Terms at any time. We will provide notice of material changes. Your continued use of the Platform after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.
