Licence Framework
The framework that every licence generated on this platform is built from. It defines what can be granted, what can never be granted, and what happens when a licence ends.
Two licence types, both bounded
Time-based licence. Rights are granted for a fixed number of days, agreed in advance and capped by the person's stated maximum term. The licence expires automatically.
Project licence. Rights are granted for a single named deliverable. The licence ends when that deliverable is complete and distributed as declared.
There is no third type. This platform does not offer a buyout, an assignment, a transfer of ownership or a perpetual grant over a person's identity, and will not generate a document purporting to create one.
What a grant can include
- —Face usage — appearance of the person's face in the declared material.
- —Voice usage — use of the person's recorded voice.
- —Appearance usage — use of other declared physical characteristics.
- —Derivative edits — cutting, grading, subtitling and re-framing within the declared purpose.
- —AI training — separately granted, never implied, priced separately.
- —Synthetic generation — separately granted, never implied, priced separately, and subject to the labelling obligations of the territory of use.
What a grant never includes
- —Sublicensing, resale, assignment or transfer to a party not named in the offer.
- —Use outside the declared category, brand, territories, platforms or term.
- —Any use that makes the person appear to say or do something they did not.
- —Any implication of genuine personal endorsement unless separately and expressly agreed.
- —Any prohibited use listed in the Acceptable Use Policy, whatever the parties may otherwise agree.
Minimum terms and the review band
A person sets a public minimum price. An offer below it cannot be sent.
Separately, the platform maintains an internal guidance range derived from the objective characteristics of the material and the breadth of the requested scope. It is not disclosed to either party, and it is not a valuation or a recommendation. Where a person accepts an offer that falls below that range, the agreement is held and reviewed by the platform before a licence is issued and before any payment is taken. The purpose is to prevent inexperienced licensors granting broad rights for nominal consideration, which is a recognised ground of challenge in several jurisdictions.
Expiry, revocation and withdrawal
- —On expiry the buyer must cease use, withdraw published material where withdrawal is within their control, and delete masters and derivatives, retaining one archival copy solely as legal evidence.
- —A licence may be revoked for material breach, including out-of-scope use, false declaration and circumvention.
- —A person may withdraw their profile and consent at any time. This stops new offers immediately. It does not retroactively cancel licences already concluded and paid for; those run to the end of their term unless revoked for breach.
- —Content already produced and distributed under a valid licence may remain in circulation after withdrawal. This limitation is stated plainly at registration.
Recovery sharing
Where the platform pursues enforcement against unauthorised use jointly with a person, net recovery after costs is shared. The default split is 70% to the person and 30% to the platform, and is disclosed before any enforcement step is taken. A person may always decline joint enforcement and pursue their own remedies.
