If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Services.

The Services are provided to enable users to read, publish, share, and interact with serialised creative works, and to participate in associated token mechanics on Creator Chain.

These Terms may be revised from time to time. When changes are made, the “Last Updated” date at the top of this document will be revised.

You represent that you are legally permitted to use the Services in your jurisdiction, including, where applicable, owning cryptographic tokens and interacting with blockchain-based applications.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your authentication credentials, wallet private keys, and any related information.

4. The Platform and Content

4.1 Reading Content

The Platform hosts serialised creative works (“Titles”) published by creators. Reading content on the Platform is free. Certain features, including fan numbering and sheep points, require a user account.

4.2 Publishing Content

Creators may publish original creative works on the Platform. By publishing content, you represent and warrant that:

  • You are the original creator of the work or have all necessary rights and permissions to publish it;
  • The content does not infringe upon the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or any other rights of any third party;
  • The content does not contain unlawful, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable material;
  • You assume full responsibility for the content you publish.

4.3 Content Ownership and Licence

Creators retain full intellectual property rights over their published works. By publishing on the Platform, you grant the Platform a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to display, distribute, reproduce, and promote your content in connection with the operation of the Services. This licence does not transfer ownership of your intellectual property.

The Platform reserves the right to remove or restrict access to any content at its sole discretion, including but not limited to content that violates these Terms or applicable law.

4.4 User-Generated Content

Users may post comments, reactions, and other user-generated content. You are solely responsible for the content you post. The Platform may moderate, edit, or remove user-generated content at its discretion.

5. Fan Numbering

When a user creates an account and reads a Title for the first time, they are assigned a sequential fan number for that Title. Fan numbers are permanent, unique per user per Title, and serve as a record of reading engagement. Fan numbers do not represent any financial right, ownership stake, or entitlement to any tokens, rewards, or other benefits.

6. Sheep Points

6.1 Sheep are off-chain engagement points earned through Platform activity, including but not limited to daily login, reading episodes, sharing content, and posting comments. Sheep are not tokens, are not recorded on any blockchain, have no monetary value, and are not redeemable, transferable, or exchangeable for any currency, cryptocurrency, or other consideration.

6.2 Users may bid their sheep on Titles via the Superfan Leaderboard. Bids are permanent and irreversible. Leaderboard rankings reset monthly.

6.3 The Platform reserves the right to modify the sheep points system, including earning rates, bid mechanics, and leaderboard rules, at any time and at its sole discretion. The Platform reserves the right to adjust, reset, or remove sheep point balances for any reason.

6.4 Leaderboard positions may be considered by creators when distributing token rewards, but no guarantee of any reward is made or implied. Any distribution of tokens in connection with leaderboard standings is entirely at the discretion of the relevant creator and does not constitute an obligation of the Platform.

7. Title Tokens

7.1 Overview

Creators may launch title-specific ERC-20 tokens on Creator Chain. These tokens are created and governed by smart contracts deployed on a public blockchain. The Platform facilitates the creation and display of these tokens but does not control or guarantee their value, liquidity, or utility.

7.2 Token Launch Conditions

Title tokens may only be launched when the applicable conditions set by the Platform are met. These conditions may change from time to time.

7.3 Token Allocation and Distribution

Token supply allocation, including creator vesting, liquidity pool contributions, and reserve allocations, is defined at the time of token creation and governed by the relevant smart contracts. Any distribution of tokens from the reserve, including but not limited to community rewards or creator-initiated airdrops, is at the sole discretion of the creator and does not constitute an obligation or guarantee by the Platform.

7.4 No Investment Advice

Title tokens are not securities, investment contracts, or financial instruments. The Platform does not provide investment advice, and nothing on the Platform should be construed as such. Token values may fluctuate, and you may lose some or all of the value of tokens you acquire. You are solely responsible for evaluating the risks associated with acquiring, holding, or disposing of any tokens.

7.5 Liquidity and Trading

Title tokens may be paired with $CRTR on decentralised exchanges. The Platform does not guarantee the availability of liquidity, the existence of trading markets, or the ability to buy or sell tokens at any given time.

8. $CRTR Token

8.1 Certain features of the Platform, including placement auctions and title token liquidity pools, are denominated in $CRTR, the native governance token of Creator Chain. The Platform does not issue, control, or manage $CRTR.

8.2 You are solely responsible for acquiring $CRTR through lawful means and for understanding the risks associated with holding and transacting in $CRTR.

9. Placement Auctions

Creators may enable placement auctions on their Titles, allowing third parties to bid for short text placements alongside episodes. Bids are denominated in $CRTR. The Platform facilitates the auction mechanism but is not responsible for the content of placements. Creators receive auction proceeds subject to the applicable platform fee.

10. Transactions and Fees

10.1 On-chain transactions conducted through the Platform are processed via Creator Chain. The Platform has no control over and cannot reverse blockchain transactions.

10.2 Blockchain transactions require the payment of gas fees denominated in ETH on Creator Chain. Gas fees are determined by network conditions and are not set or controlled by the Platform.

10.3 The Platform may charge fees for certain features, including but not limited to placement auctions and token creation. Applicable fees will be disclosed at the point of transaction.

10.4 You are solely responsible for any taxes, duties, or assessments arising from your use of the Services, including any obligations arising from the acquisition, holding, or disposal of tokens.
