Welcome to Noise, a platform operated by Noise Inc., that connects brands with everyday individuals ("Creators") to produce
and distribute content across social media platforms.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Noise app (for Creators) and the Noise dashboard (for Brands), collectively referred to as the "Platform."

By using Noise, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.

‍1. Eligibility

To use the Platform, you must be at least 18 years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater. By using Noise, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

‍2. Account Registration

You must create an account to access the Platform. You agree to provide accurate, complete, and current information, and to keep your login credentials secure. You are responsible for all activity on your account.

‍3. Platform Overview

Creators use the Noise mobile app to discover brand campaigns, create content, and earn money for distributing approved posts on social media.

‍Brands use the Noise dashboard to launch campaigns, manage creator relationships, set budgets, approve content, and view performance metrics.

Noise acts as a facilitator between Brands and Creators. We are not a party to the direct relationship between you and any other user, but we do reserve the right to enforce these Terms in all transactions.

Where Brand has entered into a separate written order form, insertion order, or campaign agreement with Noise, that document controls over these Terms to the extent of any conflict. These Terms govern all matters not addressed in it.

‍4. Creator Responsibilities

Creators must do their best to follow the brand guidelines and platform-approved best practices.Creators agree to only publish content that has been approved via the Platform.Payments are processed based on campaign terms and content performance.

‍5. Brand Responsibilities

5.1 Brands must accurately represent their business, product, or service.

5.2 Content template approvals and payments must be handled through the Platform.

5.3 Brands must not contact creators outside the Platform for campaign purposes unless explicitly permitted.

5.4 Connected Ad Accounts. Brand may connect its accounts on advertising platforms, including Meta, TikTok, Google, LinkedIn, and others Noise supports from time to time ("Connected Ad Accounts"), to the Platform.By connecting an account, Brand authorizes Noise to access, retrieve, and store advertising, campaign, creative, spend, and performance data from that account, through the applicable platform's API or authorized interface, for the purposes of operating the Platform, measuring Ad Spend, calculating fees, and providing reporting and analytics to Brand. Brand represents that it has the authority to grant this access for each account it connects, including where the account is controlled by an agency or other third party.Brand will run all advertising incorporating Campaign Content from Connected Ad Accounts, and will keep those connections active and authorized for so long as it holds a license under Section 7.7. Where Brand runs such advertising from an account that is not connected, Brand will report that spend under Section 6.3.If a connection is revoked, expires, or fails, Brand will restore it within fifteen (15) days of notice from Noise. Pending restoration, Brand will report Ad Spend manually, and Noise may estimate Ad Spend for the affected period based on the most recent available data, subject to reconciliation once the connection is restored.Noise may use data retrieved from Connected Ad Accounts in aggregated and de-identified form to develop and improve the Platform and to produce industry benchmarks and analytics, provided that such use does not identify Brand or disclose Brand's confidential information, and is subject to the terms of the applicable advertising platform.

‍6. Payment Terms
‍
6. Payment Terms

6.1 Creators. Payments are issued upon content approval and performance milestones, as outlined in each campaign. Noise may charge a service fee. Creator is responsible for all taxes on amounts received and for providing any tax documentation Noise reasonably requires as a condition of payout.

6.2 Brands — Campaign Charges. You authorize Noise to charge your payment method on file for campaigns launched. Campaign charges accrue as the campaign delivers on views and engagements, and are billed when accrued and unbilled amounts reach Brand's billing threshold, as set out in Brand's order form or Brand dashboard. Any accrued and unbilled balance below the threshold is billed at the end of each calendar month. Noise may adjust Brand's billing threshold on notice.

6.3 Content License Fees. Brand's continuing license under Section 7.7 is subject to a fee (the "Content License Fee") calculated as a percentage of Ad Spend.The applicable percentage is set out in Brand's order form, campaign agreement, or Brand dashboard, and is determined individually for each Brand based on factors that may include committed volume, campaign scope, contract term, and the nature of the content licensed. Where no percentage has been specified for a Brand, the standard rate published in the Brand dashboard applies."Ad Spend" means all amounts paid by or on behalf of Brand to any advertising platform to promote, boost, amplify, or otherwise distribute Campaign Content, other than amounts billed by Noise under Section 6.2. Ad Spend includes spend through creator-account whitelisting, spark or partnership ad codes, and spend placed by Brand's agencies, vendors, or affiliates.

‍Per-asset calculation. Ad Spend and Content License Fees are determined separately for each individual item of Campaign Content. Campaign Content for which Brand has completed a Rights Purchase under Section 7.8 is excluded from Ad Spend from the date the Rights Purchase is completed.

‍Measurement. Ad Spend is measured by Noise from data retrieved through Brand's Connected Ad Accounts, using Noise's matching of advertising creatives to individual items of Campaign Content. Noise's determination of Ad Spend and of which creatives constitute Campaign Content is authoritative absent manifest error. Brand may dispute a determination within thirty (30) days of the applicable invoice by written notice identifying the specific amounts in question; Noise will review in good faith and any correction will be applied as a credit.

‍Unconnected spend. For any Ad Spend not captured through a Connected Ad Account, Brand will report that spend to Noise within ten (10) days of the end of each calendar month, in the form Noise reasonably requires.

‍Billing. Brand authorizes Noise to charge the payment method on file for Content License Fees when accrued and unbilled fees reach Brand's billing threshold, and in any event at the end of each calendar month for any remaining balance. Unpaid amounts accrue interest at 1.5% per month or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower.

‍Audit. Noise may, on reasonable notice and not more than twice per calendar year, review Brand's records relating to Ad Spend. If a review shows an underreporting of more than five percent (5%) for any period, Brand will pay the shortfall together with the reasonable costs of the review.

‍Rate changes. Where a Brand's percentage is set out in a signed order form or campaign agreement, it may be changed only as that document provides. Otherwise, Noise may change the applicable percentage on sixty (60) days' written notice, effective prospectively. Rates are individually negotiated, are confidential, and no Brand is entitled to the rate offered to any other Brand.

6.4 Rights Purchases. Rights Purchases under Section 7.8 are charged as a separate, one-time amount at the time of purchase, and are not part of threshold-based billing. The price is displayed at checkout. Rights Purchases are final and non-refundable once the license has been granted, except as required by law. The license granted under Section 7.8 vests only upon receipt of payment in full.

6.5 Creator Share of Rights Purchases. When a Brand completes a Rights Purchase, Noise will pay the Creator who produced the applicable Campaign Content a share of the purchase price. The amount is variable and determined by Noise, and may take into account factors including content performance, the terms of the underlying campaign, the scope of rights purchased, and the purchase price. The applicable amount will be shown to Creator in the app at or before payout. Noise may change how this share is calculated, on a prospective basis only, and any change will not affect Rights Purchases already completed.

6.6 Creator Share of Content License Fees. Noise will pay the Creator who produced an item of Campaign Content a share of Content License Fees collected in respect of that content. The amount is variable and determined by Noise, and may take into account factors including content performance, the terms of the underlying campaign, and the fees collected. Noise may but is not obliged to calculate this share as a proportion of the rate paid by the applicable Brand, and different Creators may receive different amounts for content licensed to different Brands. The applicable amount will be shown to Creator in the app at or before payout. Noise may change how this share is calculated on a prospective basis only.

6.7 Reversals. If a Brand payment is reversed, charged back, or otherwise not received in full, Noise may withhold, offset, or recover the corresponding Creator payment, and the consequences set out in Sections 7.7 and 7.8 apply to the affected license.

7. Intellectual Property

7.1 Noise IP. Noise's trademarks, branding, software, and design elements are protected and may not be copied, modified, or distributed without consent.

7.2 Campaign Content. "Campaign Content" means any video, image, audio, text, or other material created, captured, or produced by a Creator in connection with, in response to, or using materials from a Noise campaign, playbook, or content template, including drafts, outtakes, alternate cuts, and unpublished versions.

7.3 Ownership. To the extent Campaign Content qualifies as a "work made for hire" under 17 U.S.C. § 101, it shall be deemed a work made for hire with Noise as author. To the extent it does not so qualify, Creator hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers, and conveys to Noise all right, title, and interest in and to the Campaign Content, including all copyrights and other intellectual property rights, throughout the world, in perpetuity, effective upon creation or fixation.Where applicable law does not permit the assignment of copyright or other rights in the Campaign Content, Creator instead grants Noise the broadest exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable right to exploit the Campaign Content that such law permits, for all known modes of exploitation and, to the extent permitted, all future modes of exploitation.Creator waives all moral rights and rights of attribution and integrity in the Campaign Content to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Where such rights cannot be waived, Creator grants Noise an exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to exercise them, and agrees not to assert them against Noise, its licensees, or its Brand customers.Creator will execute any documents Noise reasonably requests to perfect or record the foregoing, and irrevocably appoints Noise as attorney-in-fact, limited to that purpose, if Creator fails to do so within thirty (30) days of written request.

7.4 Exclusions. This Section does not transfer Creator's pre-existing intellectual property, Creator's social media accounts or handles, or content created wholly outside a Noise campaign.

7.5 Name, Image, Likeness, and Voice. Creator grants Noise and its Brand customers a worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to use Creator's name, handle, image, likeness, voice, and persona as embodied in Campaign Content, for advertising, marketing, and promotional purposes, in any media, in perpetuity. This grant survives termination of Creator's account and the conclusion of any campaign. Creator may request that Noise cease including Creator's likeness in new placements created after the request; such a request does not affect Campaign Content already published, licensed, or sold.

7.6 License to Creator. Noise grants Creator a non-exclusive, royalty-free, revocable license to keep Campaign Content posted on Creator's own social media accounts and to display it in a personal portfolio for non-commercial purposes. Noise may revoke this license on written notice.

7.7 Brand License. Upon approval and payment for a campaign, Noise grants Brand a non-exclusive, worldwide, sublicensable-only-to-its-agencies license to use, reproduce, display, and distribute Campaign Content delivered in that campaign, as delivered and without alteration, for Brand's own advertising and marketing, including paid amplification and creator-account whitelisting. Brand may not resell, transfer, or register the Campaign Content, or assert ownership of it, except pursuant to Section 7.8.No modification. Brand may not edit, alter, re-cut, re-sequence, overlay, dub, re-voice, translate, excerpt, composite, or otherwise create derivative works from Campaign Content, or combine it with other material, except as expressly permitted below. Brand may not remove or obscure any watermark, attribution, or disclosure appearing in the Campaign Content. If Brand requires different creative, Brand may commission new Campaign Content through the Platform.

Permitted technical adjustments. Brand may make the following changes solely as necessary to publish the Campaign Content on a supported advertising platform: (a) transcoding, compression, and file format conversion; (b) resizing or cropping to meet a placement's required aspect ratio, provided the framing and subject are preserved; (c) trimming to meet a placement's maximum duration, provided no portion of any product claim or required disclosure is removed; (d) adding captions or subtitles that accurately reflect the audio; and (e) adding disclosures required by law or by the advertising platform. No other change is permitted, including the addition of logos, end cards, text overlays, music, calls to action, or other branding.

‍Automated creative modification. Brand will not enable any advertising platform feature that automatically alters creative, including automatic cropping, background generation, music addition, image expansion, or generative variation, for any advertisement incorporating Campaign Content. Brand is responsible for disabling such features where they are on by default.This license is granted for an initial term ending thirty (30) days after campaign completion and continues thereafter on a rolling basis for so long as Brand remains current on the Content License Fee described in Section 6.3. The license is revocable and is expressly conditioned on payment of that fee.No Content License Fee accrues in any period in which Brand incurs no Ad Spend on the applicable Campaign Content. The license remains in effect during such periods.If Brand fails to pay the Content License Fee when due and does not cure within fifteen (15) days of written notice, or materially breaches the restrictions in this Section, the license terminates automatically. Upon termination, Brand must cease all use of the Campaign Content, discontinue any active advertising incorporating it, and remove it from Brand-controlled channels within ten (10) business days. Brand may reinstate the license by paying all outstanding amounts and curing any breach. This Section does not apply to Campaign Content for which Brand has completed a Rights Purchase under Section 7.8.

7.8 Rights Purchase. Brands may purchase expanded rights in specified Campaign Content through the Platform (a "Rights Purchase"). Noise retains ownership of the Campaign Content in all cases; a Rights Purchase conveys a license and not a transfer of title.Upon payment in full, Noise grants Brand an exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, reproduce, display, perform, distribute, modify, and create derivative works from the specified Campaign Content, in all media now known or later developed, for any lawful commercial or promotional purpose. This license supersedes the license granted under Section 7.7 as to that Campaign Content, and Campaign Content subject to a Rights Purchase is not subject to the Content License Fee or to the modification restrictions in Section 7.7.The license is exclusive as against all third parties and as against Noise itself, subject only to the rights reserved in this Section. Brand may enforce the licensed rights against infringers in its own name to the extent permitted by law, and Noise will provide reasonable cooperation at Brand's expense, including joining as a party where required.A Rights Purchase is subject to: (a) the Creator license in Section 7.6; (b) Noise's retained non-exclusive right to use the Campaign Content for platform operations, model training, analytics, case studies, and Noise's own marketing; (c) the rights granted in Section 7.5; and (d) any applicable third-party platform terms or third-party rights.The scope, price, and any limitations of each Rights Purchase are set out at checkout and control over this Section in the event of conflict. If payment is reversed, charged back, or otherwise not received in full, the license does not vest, or terminates automatically if already granted, and the Campaign Content reverts to the terms of Section 7.7.

7.9 Third-Party Rights. Nothing in these Terms overrides the terms of any third-party social media platform. Campaign Content may incorporate music, footage, trademarks, or other materials owned by third parties; Noise makes no representation that such materials are cleared, and the party publishing the content is responsible for obtaining any necessary rights.

7.10 Effective Date. This Section applies to Campaign Content created on or after January 1, 2026. Campaign Content created before that date remains governed by the version of these Terms in effect at the time of its creation, under which such content is owned by the commissioning Brand.
