Pulse Terms of Service

Last Updated: September 9, 2026

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. These Terms contain a binding individual ARBITRATION agreement and a CLASS ACTION WAIVER (Section 20) that affect your legal rights. They require you to resolve most disputes with us individually rather than in court, unless you opt out within 30 days. These Terms also include disclaimers of warranties (Section 16) and limitations of our liability (Section 17).

1. Introduction and Acceptance

Pulse is a research, analytics, and content-planning application for short-form content creators, owned and operated by Affluence Exchange, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Company," "we," "us," "our"). Core research features are offered at no charge; certain features, including AI-powered features, require a paid subscription as described in Section 5A.

Pulse is part of the Affluence creator platform, and both are operated by Affluence Exchange, Inc. Creating a Pulse Account creates a single account across both, including an Affluence creator profile through which brands and agencies can discover you and invite you to paid campaigns, as described in Section 25 and in our Privacy Policy.

Pulse is available as a mobile application and website (together, the "Service").

By creating an account, clicking "I agree," connecting a TikTok, TikTok Shop, or Instagram account, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms of Service (the "Terms") and to our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference and forms part of your agreement with us. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Service. You also agree to receive required notices and to transact with us electronically.

If you are using the Service on behalf of an entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and "you" refers to that entity.

2. Definitions

"Account" means your registered Pulse account and associated creator profile.

"AI Outputs" means content generated by the Service's automated or artificial-intelligence features at your direction (see Section 9). AI Outputs are a subset of Your Content, except that ownership and use of AI Outputs are governed by Section 9.

"Connected Commerce Data" means data we receive from a commerce account you connect, including TikTok Shop, relating to your own shop or affiliate activity.

"Content" means videos, images, text, data, metrics, and other materials available on or through the Service.

"Our Content" means the Service and all software, interfaces, designs, text, graphics, data compilations, analytics, trademarks, and other materials we provide.

"Platform Data" means data obtained from TikTok, TikTok Shop, or Instagram through their official APIs when you connect those accounts, including Connected Commerce Data.

"Program" means any founding member, early access, beta, waitlist, referral, ambassador, or other promotional program we may offer (see Section 24).

"Third-Party Data" means commerce, product, creator, and trend data, including estimated GMV, revenue, and units-sold figures, that we license from third-party data vendors or derive from publicly available signals.

"Your Content" means information and materials you submit, upload, or generate through the Service, including collections, planning boards, notes, your media kit, and AI Outputs.

3. Eligibility and Age

You must be at least 18 to create an Account and use the Service. The Service is not directed to and may not be used by anyone under 18. We may request proof of age and may suspend or terminate any Account that does not satisfy this requirement.

You also represent that you are not barred from using the Service under applicable law, and are not located in a comprehensively sanctioned region or on an applicable denied-party list.

4. Registration and Platform Connections

4.1 Registration. You register using TikTok Login Kit (OAuth 2.0) and provide an email address. You may optionally connect TikTok Shop and Instagram, and complete a profile including niche or category, self-identified follower size, goals, and how you heard about us.

4.2 TikTok. When you connect TikTok, you authorize us, through TikTok's official APIs, to receive basic profile data such as display name, avatar, follower count, engagement rate, and content category, consistent with the permissions you grant at TikTok's consent screen. You may revoke access at any time in your TikTok settings or by disconnecting within Pulse. Revocation does not affect processing that already occurred.

4.3 TikTok Shop. If you connect a TikTok Shop account, you authorize us, through TikTok's official interfaces and consistent with the permissions you grant, to receive Connected Commerce Data relating to your own shop or affiliate activity. This may include order and sales volume, gross merchandise value, product-level performance, and commission or affiliate earnings. We use Connected Commerce Data to provide your own analytics and reporting. You may disconnect at any time in Pulse or revoke access in your TikTok Shop settings.

4.4 Instagram. If you connect Instagram, you authorize us to receive the profile and metrics data covered by the permissions you grant, subject to Meta's terms and your revocation rights.

4.5 Platform Data Segregation. Data obtained through official platform APIs (including TikTok, TikTok Shop, and Instagram APIs) ("Platform Data") is used exclusively to operate, maintain, and provide analytics directly to you within your Account. Platform Data is never commingled with public discovery databases sold or displayed to third-party brands, is never used for advertising targeting or model training outside the Service, and is handled in strict compliance with each applicable platform's developer terms.

4.6 Accurate information; security. You must provide accurate information and keep it current, safeguard your credentials, and promptly notify us of unauthorized use. You are responsible for activity under your Account.

4.7 No platform affiliation. Connecting a third-party account is governed by that platform's terms in addition to these Terms. We are not responsible for third-party platform availability, API changes, or account actions.

5. The Service; Evolution of the Service

The Service comprises the Pulse research and content-planning tools described below and the Affluence creator platform described in Section 25.

Pulse provides research and productivity tools for creators, which may include velocity-ranked video research feeds, product analytics including estimated revenue and GMV and units sold, product-similarity and discovery features, creator leaderboards ranked by estimated GMV, hook transcription, AI-powered video analysis and script rewriting, trending sounds, collections, content-planning boards, reporting on Connected Commerce Data, and an auto-generated shareable media kit.

Core research features are currently offered at no charge. Certain features, including AI-powered features, are offered only with a paid subscription as described in Section 5A. Use of the Service is subject to the limits in Section 5B.

Evolution of the Service. The Service is expected to evolve. We may, at any time and in our sole discretion: add, modify, suspend, or discontinue features; introduce new products and services within or alongside the Service, including the features described in Section 25; rebrand or rename the Service in whole or in part, including operating under the Affluence brand; and impose or change limits on features as described in Section 5B. Where a change is material and adverse to you, we will provide notice under Section 19. We do not guarantee that any feature will remain available or free indefinitely, except that we will not charge you for a paid feature without your express affirmative agreement to the applicable pricing.

5A. Paid Subscriptions, Billing, Renewal, and Refunds

5A.1 What you are agreeing to. Before we collect your billing information, we will clearly and conspicuously disclose: the features included in the plan, the price, the billing frequency, the fact that the subscription renews automatically until you cancel, the deadline and method for cancelling, and any charge that differs after an introductory period. Those plan terms are presented at checkout and form part of these Terms.

5A.2 Consent. We charge you only after you give express informed consent to the terms disclosed under 5A.1. We will not enroll you in a paid subscription as a default, as a condition of using free features, or through a pre-checked box.

5A.3 Processing. Purchases are processed by a third-party merchant of record, currently Whop, whose terms also apply to the transaction. We do not store full payment credentials. Applicable taxes may be collected by the merchant of record.

5A.4 Automatic renewal. Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period until cancelled. We will send renewal and price-change notices as required by law, and where applicable law requires a periodic reminder of an ongoing subscription, we will send it. Price changes apply prospectively to subsequent billing periods only, and we will give advance notice before any price change takes effect.

5A.5 Cancellation. You may cancel at any time, through the same channel you used to subscribe, using a mechanism at least as simple as the one used to sign up. Cancellation is available in your account settings without contacting support, speaking to anyone, or completing a retention flow. Cancelling stops your subscription from renewing. What happens to the remainder of your current term depends on whether you request a refund, as described in Section 5A.6.

5A.6 Refunds.

The elapsed portion of any subscription term is never refundable. Except where required by law, any refund of subscription fees is limited to the unused portion of the then-current subscription term, meaning the time remaining between your refund request and the end of that term.

If you cancel and request a refund, we will refund the unused portion of the then-current term, and your access to paid features will end on the date the refund is issued. You will not be charged again.

If you cancel without requesting a refund, your subscription continues until the end of the then-current term, you keep access to paid features until then, and it does not renew. No refund is due in this case.

If we terminate your access without cause under Section 15, or discontinue a paid feature you have prepaid for, we will refund the unused portion of the then-current term.

5B. Service Limits, Fair Use, and Rate Limiting

5B.1 Reasonable use. The Service, including AI features, is provided for your own creator research, analysis, and content-planning activity, subject to the limits published for your plan.

5B.2 Published limits. We may set, publish, and enforce limits including: the number of AI operations, such as video analyses, transcriptions, and script rewrites, per day, month, or billing period; feature or API requests per minute, hour, or day; data export volume; the number of collections, boards, or saved items; and the size, length, or duration of files or videos you submit. Limits applicable to your plan are published in the Service and at checkout and are incorporated into these Terms.

5B.3 Changes to limits. We may add, adjust, or remove limits at any time. If we reduce a published limit on a paid plan in a way that is material and adverse to you, we will give notice under Section 19 before it takes effect for your then-current billing period, and you may cancel under Section 5A.

5B.4 Enforcement. If you reach or exceed a published limit, we may throttle, queue, or decline further requests, pause AI features until the next period, or offer additional capacity for purchase. Repeated or deliberate attempts to exceed limits, including through multiple Accounts, automated tools, or circumvention of rate-limiting, violate Section 7 and may result in suspension or termination.

5B.5 No rollover. Unless your plan terms say otherwise, unused capacity does not roll over, has no cash value, and resets each period. Reaching a limit, or being throttled under this Section, is not a failure of the Service and does not entitle you to a refund or credit except as required by law or as provided in Section 5A.

5B.6 Service protection. Certain features depend on third-party providers billed by usage. We may apply per-Account and Service-wide safeguards, including spend caps and automated circuit breakers, to maintain availability, protect security, and prevent abuse or unexpected cost, and may suspend or restrict AI features where reasonably necessary for those purposes.

6. License to Use the Service

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Service for your own personal or internal business creator activities. We reserve all rights not expressly granted.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to, and not to assist or permit any third party to:

copy, scrape, crawl, harvest, index, cache, or extract data or Content from the Service by automated or manual means, except through functionality we expressly provide;

resell, sublicense, redistribute, syndicate, or otherwise commercially exploit the Service, Our Content, or Third-Party Data;

reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive source code, models, or underlying data, or use the Service to build or train a competing product, dataset, or model;

circumvent, disable, or interfere with security, rate-limiting, or access controls, or access the Service through unauthorized means;

misrepresent your identity, impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation;

upload or transmit unlawful, infringing, defamatory, harassing, hateful, or malicious content or code;

use the Service in violation of applicable law or of the rules, terms, or policies of TikTok, TikTok Shop, Instagram or Meta, or any other platform that applies to you;

manipulate, game, or abuse any Program or campaign, including through fake accounts, self-referrals, misrepresentation, or artificial activity; or

use the Service in any manner that could disable, overburden, or impair it.

We may investigate and take action we deem appropriate for suspected violations, including removing content, revoking Program benefits, and suspending or terminating Accounts.

8. Your Content and the Media Kit

8.1 Ownership. As between you and us, you retain ownership of Your Content.

8.2 License to us. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, adapt, format, display, and transmit Your Content solely to operate, secure, support, and improve the Service and as described in the Privacy Policy.

8.3 Media kit and sharing. The Service can auto-generate a shareable media kit and links from your profile and connected-account metrics. If you generate or share one, you direct us to make the included information, which may include your name, avatar, niche, follower and engagement metrics, and performance figures, accessible to anyone with the link or to recipients you choose. You are responsible for what you share. Metrics may include estimates and may differ from platform-native figures.

8.4 Feedback. If you send us suggestions or feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free right to use it without restriction or compensation.

9. AI Outputs; No Professional Advice

The Service includes automated and artificial-intelligence features, including video analysis, hook transcription, and script rewriting, and may use third-party AI providers. AI Outputs are generated by automated systems, may be inaccurate, incomplete, biased, or outdated, and must be independently reviewed before you rely on or publish them. We do not warrant the accuracy, quality, originality, non-infringement, or fitness of any AI Output. You are solely responsible for reviewing, editing, and using AI Outputs, including ensuring they do not infringe third-party rights and that they comply with platform rules and applicable disclosure and endorsement laws. The Service does not provide legal, financial, tax, investment, or other professional advice, and we do not guarantee any particular result, including views, followers, engagement, sales, GMV, or income.

As between you and the Company, and subject to our rights in the Service and Our Content, you own the AI Outputs generated at your direction and may use them for any lawful purpose. You acknowledge that AI Outputs may not be unique, that the Service may generate the same or similar outputs for other users, and that we may use AI Outputs to operate, secure, and improve the Service as described in the Privacy Policy.

10. Data, Estimates, and Non-User Creators

10.1 Connected data versus modeled estimates. The Service presents two distinct categories of figures, which should not be treated the same way.

Connected Commerce Data. Where you have connected your own TikTok Shop or other commerce account, figures derived from that connection reflect data reported to us by the platform for your own activity. They may still be delayed, restated, or corrected by the platform, and may differ from the platform's own reporting interfaces.

Third-Party Data and modeled estimates. Product analytics, revenue and GMV figures, units-sold figures, creator leaderboards, velocity rankings, and similar metrics relating to creators, shops, and products other than your own connected accounts are estimates and modeled figures, not official, reported, or audited data. They may vary materially from actual results and from figures reported by TikTok, TikTok Shop, sellers, or creators. They are provided for directional research only and must not be the sole basis for financial, inventory, commission-settlement, or business decisions.

10.2 Sourcing. Third-Party Data is licensed from third-party data vendors or derived from publicly available signals. Except for data you authorize us to receive through a platform connection under Section 4, we do not represent that we collect data from TikTok, TikTok Shop, or Instagram ourselves.

10.3 No platform affiliation; trademarks. Pulse and Affluence are independent services and are not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or associated with TikTok, TikTok Shop, ByteDance Ltd., Meta Platforms, Inc., or Instagram. "TikTok," "TikTok Shop," "Instagram," "Meta," and related names, logos, and trademarks are the property of their respective owners and are used for identification and descriptive purposes only. All third-party content displayed through the Service remains the property of TikTok, its creators, and other rights holders.

10.4 Creators Who Are Not Pulse Users; Disclaimer of Liability.

(a) The Service displays publicly available information and automated, modeled metrics regarding short-form content creators, products, and shops, including creators who have not created an Account. All non-user performance metrics, GMV figures, revenue estimates, and sales volume are unverified, modeled industry estimates generated by automated algorithms. They do not represent audited, verified, or official financial reports.

(b) If you are a creator who does not maintain an Account and wish to have your profile suppressed from our public research feeds and leaderboards, you may submit a request to support@affluence.io. We will verify your account control and process suppression within thirty (30) days of verification.

(c) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY INACCURACIES, ERRORS, OR OMISSIONS IN MODELED ESTIMATES FOR NON-USER CREATORS. DISPLAY OF PUBLICLY AVAILABLE DATA AND MODELED ESTIMATES DOES NOT CONSTITUTE ENDORSEMENT, COMMERCIAL DISPARAGEMENT, OR A REPRESENTATION OF OFFICIAL PERFORMANCE. YOU AGREE THAT THE COMPANY IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIMS OF TORTIOUS INTERFERENCE, RIGHT OF PUBLICITY VIOLATIONS, OR FALSE ADVERTISING ARISING FROM AUTOMATED MODELED ESTIMATES.

11. Intellectual Property

The Service and Our Content are owned by the Company and its licensors and protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the limited license in Section 6, you obtain no rights in the Service or Our Content. The "Pulse" and "Affluence" names, logos, and related marks are trademarks of the Company or its affiliates and may not be used without prior written permission.

12. Copyright and DMCA Policy

We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If you believe Content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our Designated Agent containing: (1) your physical or electronic signature; (2) identification of the copyrighted work; (3) identification of the allegedly infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to locate it; (4) your contact information; (5) a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized; and (6) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner. We may remove allegedly infringing material, forward notices, provide a counter-notice process, and terminate repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

DMCA Designated Agent: Legal Department, Affluence Exchange, Inc., 2 Biscayne Blvd, Miami, FL 33131, legal@affluence.io.

13. Community and Discord

The Service may direct you to a community on Discord. Your use of Discord is governed by Discord's own terms and privacy policy. Conduct in that community is subject to the standards in Section 7 and to any community guidelines we publish. We do not control Discord and are not responsible for it. Conduct violating those standards may result in removal from the community and suspension or termination of your Account.

14. Third-Party Services and Links

The Service may link to or integrate third-party services, data, and websites. We do not control and are not responsible for them, and your use is governed by their terms and policies.

15. Termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your Account at any time in Account settings or by contacting us. We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including suspected violation of these Terms. If we terminate your access without cause, the refund provisions of Section 5A apply. Upon termination, your license and any Program benefits end and we may delete Your Content, subject to the Privacy Policy and applicable law.

Sections that by their nature should survive, including Sections 5A, 5B, 7 through 11, and 16 through 22, survive termination.

16. Disclaimers of Warranties

THE SERVICE, OUR CONTENT, THIRD-PARTY DATA, ALL AI OUTPUTS, AND ALL PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT ANY DATA OR METRIC IS ACCURATE OR COMPLETE, OR THAT ANY RESULT WILL BE ACHIEVED. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of this Section may not apply to you.

17. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND LICENSORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR DATA, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR ANY PROGRAM, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY.

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE, ANY PROGRAM, OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100) AND (B) THE AMOUNTS YOU ACTUALLY PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

This limitation does not apply to amounts actually owed but unpaid to you under a Program's published terms or under campaign terms you have accepted. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this Section may not apply to you.

18. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and licensors from claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) Your Content or your media kit; (c) your violation of these Terms or applicable law; (d) your violation of third-party rights, including intellectual-property, privacy, or platform-policy rights; (e) your use of AI Outputs or Third-Party Data; or (f) your participation in any Program or campaign.

19. Changes to These Terms

19.1 Right to modify. We may update these Terms to reflect changes to the Service, new features and products, Programs, rebranding, changes in our corporate structure, or changes in law.

19.2 Notice and acceptance. We will post the updated version with a new "Last Updated" date. For material changes we will provide reasonable advance notice through the Service and by email to the address associated with your Account, and where required by law we will obtain your affirmative consent. Changes apply prospectively. If you continue to use the Service after the effective date, you accept the updated Terms; if you do not agree, your sole remedy is to stop using the Service and delete your Account. For clarity, introducing a feature already described in these Terms, including the features described in Section 25, is not a material change for purposes of this Section.

19.3 Supplemental terms. Certain features, Programs, or campaigns may be governed by supplemental terms presented at enrollment or use, which control over these Terms for that feature, Program, or campaign to the extent of any conflict.

20. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration; Class Action Waiver

20.1 Informal resolution first. Before starting arbitration, you and the Company agree to try to resolve any dispute informally by sending written notice to legal@affluence.io describing the dispute and the relief requested, and to negotiate in good faith for at least 30 days.

20.2 Binding Individual Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 20.3, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Service, any Program, or these Terms will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section.

The seat of arbitration is Miami-Dade County, Florida. Hearings shall be conducted in person in Miami-Dade County, Florida, and not virtually, unless otherwise strictly required by the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive laws of the State of Florida without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this agreement to arbitrate.

20.3 Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court if it qualifies, and either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to protect intellectual property or Account security.

20.4 Class action waiver. YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OR PRESIDE OVER ANY CLASS PROCEEDING. If this waiver is found unenforceable as to a claim, that claim proceeds in court.

20.5 Batch arbitration. If 25 or more similar claims are asserted against the Company by or with the assistance of the same or coordinated counsel, the parties will arbitrate them in batches of no more than 50, with a single arbitrator per batch and a single set of filing fees per batch, and the parties will work in good faith with the administrator to implement this process.

20.6 30-day right to opt out. You may opt out of this Section 20 by sending written notice to privacy@affluence.io with the subject line "ARBITRATION OPT-OUT," including your name and the email associated with your Account, within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. If you opt out, the rest of these Terms still apply.

21. Governing Law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to Section 20, the state and federal courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes not subject to arbitration, and you consent to their personal jurisdiction and venue. The internal corporate affairs of the Company remain governed by the laws of the State of Delaware by reason of its incorporation there.

22. General Provisions; Assignment

These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and any supplemental terms are the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding the Service and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements regarding the Service. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms. We may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, without your consent and without notice, to any affiliate or in connection with a rebranding, reorganization, merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, and upon assignment the assignee will be entitled to all of our rights and subject to all of our obligations. There are no third-party beneficiaries. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control. Notices to you may be given by email or through the Service.

23. Rebranding and Corporate Changes

23.1 Rebranding. The Service may be renamed, rebranded, redesigned, or consolidated with our other products at any time, including operating in whole or in part under the "Affluence" name. A rebranding by itself does not change your rights or obligations under these Terms.

23.2 Corporate changes. The Service may be operated by, or transferred to, an affiliate of the Company. In that event, references to the "Company" refer to the operating entity, and your Account, Your Content, and associated data may be transferred to that entity as described in the Privacy Policy and permitted by law.

23.3 Continuity. Except as expressly stated in updated Terms, a rebranding or corporate change will not (a) reduce your ownership of Your Content, (b) retroactively impose fees for past use, or (c) eliminate your right to delete your Account.

24. Programs

24.1 Programs generally. We may offer Programs such as founding member or founding creator spots, early access, beta features, waitlists, ambassador roles, referral programs, or other promotions. Each may have supplemental terms, eligibility criteria, caps, and durations presented at enrollment, which control over these Terms for that Program.

24.2 Discretionary benefits. Unless a Program's supplemental terms expressly say otherwise, Program benefits, including titles, badges, early access, priority placement, rate or fee preferences, or other perks: (a) are provided at our discretion and are not guaranteed to continue for any period; (b) may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time on reasonable notice; (c) are personal to you, non-transferable, and have no cash value unless expressly stated; and (d) do not constitute equity, securities, employment, partnership, agency, or any ownership or profit-sharing interest in the Company or any affiliate.

24.3 Founding spots. If we offer founding member or founding creator spots, the number of spots, benefits, selection criteria, and conditions will be stated at enrollment. We may decline, revoke, or reassign founding status for violation of these Terms, Program abuse, inactivity as defined in the Program terms, or conduct we reasonably determine is harmful to the Service or community.

24.4 Referral, reward, and prize programs. If we offer referral rewards, bonuses, or prize promotions, the reward or prize, qualifying conditions, selection method, verification process, and payment timing will be stated in the applicable Program's supplemental terms or official rules. Unless stated otherwise: rewards are payable only where the referral or introduction satisfies the stated qualifying conditions as determined by us reasonably and in good faith; self-referrals, referrals of entities you own or work for, fake or duplicate accounts, and manipulated activity do not qualify; you are responsible for any taxes on rewards and may be required to provide tax documentation before payment; and we may withhold or reverse rewards obtained through fraud or Program abuse.

24.5 Beta features. Beta or early-access features are experimental, may be modified or removed without notice, may be less reliable, and are provided strictly "as is."

24.6 No earnings guarantee. No Program or campaign is a promise of income, deals, placement, or results.

25. The Affluence Creator Platform

25.1 One platform. Pulse and the Affluence creator platform are operated by the same company under a single account. Creating a Pulse Account creates your Affluence creator profile. Features described in this Section are part of the Service, and we roll them out over time.

25.2 Discovery and campaigns. Brands and agencies with access to Affluence can discover creator profiles and invite creators to paid campaigns. You may receive campaign invitations, browse and apply to campaigns, exchange messages with brands through the Service, submit content for campaigns, and be selected or declined for them. Your visibility to brands and agencies is controlled by the Creator Visibility setting described in our Privacy Policy.

25.3 The creator pool is shared. Creator profiles on Affluence are available to all brands and agencies using the platform. No brand or agency has exclusive access to any creator, and no creator is reserved to a particular brand or agency, regardless of who first discovered, recruited, or worked with that creator. You may work with multiple brands and agencies at the same time, subject to any campaign-specific terms you accept.

25.4 Compensation and payouts. Campaigns may offer compensation including flat fees, commissions, or performance-based amounts, as stated in the campaign terms you accept. Participation in any paid campaign is your choice and requires you to accept that campaign's terms. To pay you, we will need to collect additional information such as tax identification and payout details, and we will describe what we collect and why at the time we collect it. We do not collect that information unless and until you enroll in a paid campaign.

25.5 Messaging. The Service may offer messaging between creators and brands, and may operate messaging integrations through official platform APIs. You are responsible for your own communications and for any consents required from people you message.

25.6 Rollout. Features in this Section may be introduced, changed, or withdrawn as described in Section 5. Because these features are described here, their introduction is not by itself a material change requiring notice under Section 19. Where a feature involves collecting new categories of personal information from you, or paying you, we will give notice at that point as described in 25.4.
