8. Content — General Terms
Your Content is not confidential, and you authorise your Fans to access and view your Content on Pink Africa for their own lawful and personal use, and in accordance with any licenses that you grant to your Fans.
You are legally responsible for all Content you Upload. If you are a Creator and someone else assists you with the operation of your Creator account, this does not affect your legal responsibility. Our relationship is with you, and not with any third-party, and you will be legally responsible for ensuring that all Content posted and all use of your account complies with the Terms of Service.
You warrant that, for each item of Content you Upload:
- it complies with the Terms of Service and all applicable laws;
- you own your Content (and all intellectual property rights in it) or hold all rights necessary, including licenses, to post and monetise the Content on Pink Africa;
- if your Content includes or uses any third-party material, you have secured all rights, licenses, written consents and releases that are necessary for the use of such third-party property in your Content;
- the Content is of satisfactory quality, reasonably suitable for any purpose which the Fan has made known to you, and as described by you.
You are liable to and will indemnify us if any warranty in this section is untrue. This means you will be responsible for any resulting loss or damage we suffer.
We are not responsible for, do not control, and do not endorse any Content you or any other Pink Africa User posts. We reserve the right to pre-screen, monitor, or reuse Content. We reserve the right to remove Content that violates our Terms of Service.
You agree to act as custodian of records for all Content you Upload to Pink Africa.
9. Fan Subscriptions and Purchases
Creator Interactions are governed by the Contract between Fan and Creator. We may moderate Content and we facilitate Creator Interactions by providing the Pink Africa platform, but we are not a party to the Contract between Fan and Creator, and we are not responsible for Creator Interactions.
Creators are solely responsible for determining any pricing applicable to Creator Interactions.
All prices appear, and are charged, in USD. Payment providers may charge currency conversion fees.
Fan Payments are exclusive of Indirect Sales Tax, which shall be added at the current rate as applicable to Fan Payments.
When you select “Subscribe,” you agree to start a Subscription. A Subscription will automatically renew at the current rate (plus Indirect Sales Tax). You authorise us to charge you again after each Subscription, unless: (i) your payment is declined and you have not provided another payment; (ii) the Subscription price has increased; (iii) you switched off the “Auto-Renew” feature on the Creator’s account; or (iv) you close your Pink Africa account before the new subscription period begins. By selecting “Subscribe,” you agree to these provisions, and acknowledge that you will not receive further Notice regarding the renewal of that Subscription.
If you cancel a Subscription, you can view the relevant Creator’s Content until the end of the subscription period in which you cancelled, after which no further payments will be taken from you.
You agree not to make: (i) unjustified requests for a refund; or (ii) unjustified chargeback requests of your payment card provider in relation to any Creator Interaction. If we determine that any refund or chargeback request was made by you in bad faith, we may suspend or delete your User account.
You can prepay an amount on Pink Africa (“Wallet Credits”) which you can later use for Fan Payments. Wallet Credits are non-refundable. Interest will not accrue on Wallet Credits.
10. Creator Payouts
All Fan Payments will be received and processed by a third-party payment provider we approve.
Our Fee is calculated as 20% of the total Fan Payment and will be deducted from each Fan Payment.
Creator Earnings will only be available for withdrawal when reflected in your Pink Africa account. To withdraw Creator Earnings, your account balance must meet the minimum payout amount requirement.
All Fan Payments and Creator Earnings are transacted in USD. Your bank or e-wallet company may charge currency conversion or other fees. We are not responsible for paying such charges.
If a Fan successfully seeks a refund or chargeback, we may deduct an amount equal to the Creator Earnings portion of the refunded or charged-back amount.
11. Tax Compliance
Creators are responsible for their own Tax affairs and neither we nor any subsidiary are responsible for advising you on your Tax affairs or liable for any Creator’s non-payment of Tax.
By using Pink Africa as a Creator, you warrant that you have reported, and will report in the future, all payments you receive in connection with your use of Pink Africa to the relevant Tax authority in your jurisdiction, as required by law.
You alone are responsible for ensuring that you make any necessary Tax filings and pay any Tax due on your earnings on Pink Africa. Failure to comply with your Tax obligations may result in your Pink Africa account being closed or suspended.
