Terms of Service - Crezly

1. Acceptance of the Terms

By downloading, creating an account on, browsing, or using the Crezly mobile application or website (collectively, the "Platform"), you affirm that you are at least 18 years old (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction) and legally capable of entering into binding contracts.

If you are accessing the Platform on behalf of a company, organization, or brand, you represent and warrant that you have the requisite authority to bind that entity to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use or access Crezly.

2. Description of the Crezly Marketplace

Crezly is an online creator-marketing and creative-services marketplace that facilitates discovery, communication, and commercial collaboration between brands and independent content creators.

The Platform provides tools to allow creators to showcase their verified audience metrics, display portfolio links, negotiate promotional deliverables, and formalize creative campaign arrangements with brands.

3. Roles of Brands, Buyers, Creators, and Independent Service Providers

It is essential to understand the structural relationship of all marketplace participants:

• Independent Service Providers: Creators on Crezly are independent contractors and creative service providers. They are not employees, agents, joint venturers, or partners of Crezly. Creators maintain full creative and operational independence over their schedule, methods, and content creation.
• Brands and Buyers: Brands and commercial buyers are independent entities seeking creative promotional services. Brands negotiate campaign briefs and specifications directly with creators.
• Intermediary Platform Status: Crezly operates solely as a technology venue and marketplace facilitator. Crezly does not itself produce creative promotional content, endorse specific creators, or control the editorial output of independent creators.

4. Creator Profiles and Promotional Collaborations

Creators are entitled to create customized marketplace profiles featuring their content niches, creative packages, and verified channel indicators.

When a brand and creator agree to collaborate:

• Both parties must establish mutual agreement regarding project deliverables, submission deadlines, content requirements, and compensation terms.
• Creators agree to deliver the agreed-upon promotional content in a professional, timely manner conforming to the agreed brief.
• Brands agree to provide prompt creative feedback, necessary brand assets, and timely release of agreed payments upon satisfactory delivery.

5. Accurate Representation of Creator Profiles and Channel Statistics

Marketplace integrity is paramount on Crezly. Users agree to provide truthful, accurate, and up-to-date information at all times:

• Authentic Information: Users must not provide falsified identity information, misrepresent their professional experience, or post deceptive portfolio samples.
• Prohibition of Metric Manipulation: Creators must not use automated bots, fake engagement syndicates, purchased views/subscribers, or any fraudulent technique to inflate their channel statistics or engagement metrics.
• Direct Verification: To ensure absolute transparency, Crezly utilizes direct official API integrations (such as the YouTube Data API) so that displayed audience indicators reflect official platform data rather than unverified self-assertions.

6. YouTube Account Authorization and Use of YouTube API Services

Crezly integrates YouTube API Services to allow creators to link their verified YouTube channels and display authentic public channel statistics directly on their profile.

Conditions of YouTube Integration:

• Read-Only Access: Crezly's authorization requests only the read-only scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.readonly. Crezly does not modify channel settings, upload videos, edit video metadata, or delete content.
• Single Channel Binding: Each YouTube channel may only be linked to a single verified Crezly account at any given time to prevent duplicate impersonation across the platform.
• No Affiliation or Endorsement: YouTube and Google are registered trademarks of Google LLC. Crezly is an independent application. YouTube does not sponsor, endorse, certify, or assume liability for Crezly or any transactions occurring on our marketplace.
• Revocation at Will: Creators can disconnect their YouTube channel at any time in Profile Settings or revoke access via Google Security Settings.

7. Users' Responsibility for Their Accounts and Submitted Information

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your account credentials (including passwords and authentication tokens). You are liable for all activities that take place under your account.

9. Marketplace Transactions and Applicable Deal Terms

When a collaboration deal is initiated on Crezly:

• Deliverables and pricing are established by the contracting parties through agreed project briefs.
• Crezly provides platform tracking tools to record project status, submission timestamps, and proof of publication (such as published live video links).
• Both parties are responsible for complying with relevant advertising disclosure guidelines (including FTC / ASCI promotional disclosure rules requiring clear and conspicuous #ad or sponsorship declarations).

10. Disputes, Cancellations, and Refunds

In accordance with Crezly's established platform policies:

• Collaboration Inquiries: If a creator fails to deliver agreed promotional deliverables according to the accepted brief, or if a brand fails to furnish necessary assets, the parties are encouraged to resolve the discrepancy cooperatively.
• Platform Dispute Mediation: Either party may submit an unresolved deal dispute to Crezly support at omkaarstudios@gmail.com. Crezly will review submitted deliverables, campaign briefs, chat logs, and proof links to determine an equitable resolution consistent with platform rules.
• No Unilateral Warranties: Crezly does not guarantee commercial results or sales conversions, and dissatisfaction with organic viewer reception does not constitute grounds for refund if the agreed creative brief was fulfilled.
