7. Voidwave Services
7.1 Voidwave Services (the “Services”): Content Creators post a “Poll”, which lists at least two (2) options for content that the Content Creator proposes to create (the “Proposed Content”). Those Users who elect to bid on the Proposed Content, vote collectively on which Proposed Content they want the Content Creator to create, using a Digital Wallet or Digital Currency (both in US Dollars). Those Users who voted for the option that received the most votes, as measured by the total amount in US Dollars, must make a donation in the amount that they bid on the Proposed Content that was the winning option (the “Donation”). In return, the Content Creator will make the content available to such Users as a Digital Good. If Content Creator fails to deliver the Digital Good resulting from a Poll three (3) times within a period of one (1) year, the Content Creator’s Account/Profile may be suspended or terminated, in Voidwave’s discretion.
7.2 Payment Processor: Voidwave is not a payment processor and does not hold any funds. Instead, Voidwave uses PayPal to process Donations for Content. Voidwave may use different, or additional, payment processors in its discretion (PayPal and different, or additional, payment processors are collectively referred to as “Payment Processors”). You acknowledge and agree that the use of Payment Processors is integral to the Services and that we exchange information with Payment Processors in order to facilitate the provision of Services.
7.3 Payment Processor Fees: Industry-standard payment processor fees apply (hereinafter and on the website referred to as 'Payment Processor Fees').
7.4 The Platform is not a Broker, Financial Institution, Creditor or Charity: The Platform is an administrative platform only. Voidwave facilitates the posting of Polls and the making of Donations to Content Creators for their content as more fully described in Section 7.1. Voidwave is not a broker, agent, financial institution, creditor or 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation.
7.5 Voidwave has no control over the conduct of, or any information provided by, a Content Creator and hereby disclaims all liability in this regard to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. We do not guarantee that a Proposed Content in connection with a Poll will obtain a certain amount of Donations, or any Donations at all. We make no guarantee, express or implied, that any information provided through the Services is accurate. We expressly disclaim any liability or responsibility for the outcome or success of a Poll. Users must make the final determination as to the value and appropriateness of voting on a Poll. You acknowledge and agree that Users of the Platform who are employees of Voidwave are acting in their individual capacity only, and not as representatives of Voidwave. Accordingly, Voidwave is not responsible for any liability arising out of the acts or omissions of Voidwave employees in connection with their use of the Platform.
7.6 Donations: All Donations are at your own risk. When you make a Donation through the Platform, it is your responsibility to understand how your money will be used.
7.7 Account Holds: From time to time, Voidwave may, in its sole discretion, place a hold on an Account (a 'Hold) to protect its interests and those of the Users and Content Creators. Some of the reasons that we may take such action include, without limitation, the following: (i) if we have reason to believe (in our sole discretion) that information provided by a Content Creator is false, misleading, or fraudulent, or that funds are being used in a prohibited manner; (ii) if we have reason to believe that a Content Creator or Poll has violated this Agreement, (iii) if we determine that the Content Creator is colluding with Users to engage in fraudulent activity, (iv) if we have reason to believe (in our sole discretion) that there may be suspicious or fraudulent Donation activity, or (v) if required in order to comply with a court order, subpoena, writ, injunction, or as otherwise required under applicable laws and regulations.
7.8 Availability of Donations from a Poll: While Voidwave strives to make Payouts available to you promptly, you acknowledge and agree that Payouts may not be available to you for use immediately. Voidwave does not guarantee that Payouts will be available to you within any specific time frame, and Voidwave expressly disclaims any and all responsibility for any delay in, or inability to, access and use Payouts at any specified time, and any consequences arising from such delay or inability. As a Content Creator, you are responsible for ensuring that the information you provide to Voidwave in order to process a Payout, including your bank account information, is accurate and up to date. Voidwave may, at any time, for any reason, without notice, and in its sole discretion, offer or issue a refund of Payout(s) with or without consulting you, which may comprise the entire Payout. Voidwave is not liable to you or to any third party for any claims, damages, costs, losses, or other consequences caused by Voidwave issuing refunds, including, but not limited to transaction or overdraft fees.
7.9 Payment Processors
7.9.1 Voidwave uses Payment Processors to process Donations, and thereafter deliver these Donations to you in the form of Payouts. In order to access Payouts, you will be required to provide the Payment Processor with your bank account information (“Payout Account”). You, as a Content Creator, represent and warrant to Payment Processor and Voidwave that such information is true and that you are authorized to use the applicable Payout Account.
7.9.2 By setting up a Poll you, as a Content Creator, agree to the processing, use, transfer or disclosure of data by the Payment Processors pursuant to any and all applicable terms set forth by the applicable Payment Processors

8. Fees, Balance Redemption, Taxes, and Conversion

8.1 Fees. Voidwave will assess and collect a fee (the “Voidwave Fee”) of fifteen percent (15%) of the Donations for Digital Goods. The Voidwave Fee is in addition to any fees imposed by PayPal and other Payment Processors. The Voidwave Fee may be changed by Voidwave at any time in its sole discretion.

8.2 The details of the fees with respect to Digital Goods are as follows:
8.2.1 Payouts of Final Price. A “Payout” is the funds sent to the Content Creator’s designated bank account, representing the Final Price for Proposed Content a winning User is required to pay in connection with a Poll, as more fully set forth above.
8.2.2 If a Content Creator has submitted invalid or incomplete Payout details, or the recipient account doesn’t belong to the Content Creator, we reserve the right to take unlimited time to process the Payout.

8.2.3 The Payout can be made only by a request and only if the Content Creator’s Profile meets the following conditions at the moment of the Payout request:
a. At least $100 in Donations collected.
b. At least 14 days have passed since the account’s initial approval date.
c. All the Payout information filled in and verified.
The exceptions from these conditions can be made upon request.

8.3 A Payout can be requested once every 15 days.

8.4 A Payout can be made only to a reliable Content Creator (with existing activity, active Profile, and successful content review).

8.5 If any third-party institution (e.g., bank) or organization (e.g. money transfer service) involved in the Payout process fails or delays in making the Payout to the Content Creator’s account, we may take additional unlimited time to process the Payout.

8.6 We may make exceptions to these Payout terms on a case-by-case basis depending on the circumstances.

8.7 In order to receive Payouts, the Content Creator must provide us with all required and requested information. If the information provided is false, omitted, incomplete, or suspicious in any other way (each as determined by Voidwave in its sole discretion), we reserve the right to withhold Payouts until any issues related to the Payout information are resolved.

8.8 If requested by us, the Content Creator must clearly establish that all related activity on the Platform is lawful, as governed by state or province of residence or by international law. If the Content Creator fails to do so for any reason in a timely manner, we reserve the right to deny Payouts to the Content Creator until the matter is resolved.
8.9 Digital Goods. With respect to your Digital Goods, you may upload a digital file (including, but not limited to, .mp3, .pdf, .png, .jpeg files) to the Platform. Upon a determination that a User is among the other Users who voted for the winning Proposed Content, Voidwave will deduct the final price of the winning Proposed Content (the “Final Price”), plus the Voidwave Fee, from the User’s Digital Wallet or Digital Currency and pay the Final Price to the Content Creator.

8.10 Taxes. You agree to be solely responsible and liable for the proper administration, imposition, collection, reporting, and remitting of all applicable taxes. This information is not intended, and should not be used, as legal advice. If you are unsure as to your tax responsibilities, then you should seek advice from experts on this subject.
8.11 Direct Taxation. It is your responsibility to disclose your earnings to your relevant tax authority and you must ensure that you are paying the correct amount of tax. This is particularly relevant for Users and Content Creators who are operating as a business.

17.2 Upon receiving notice of a Claim for which Voidwave is entitled to indemnification from you, Voidwave will provide you with written notification and the opportunity to assume sole control over the defense or settlement of the Claim, as well as reasonable assistance to settle and/or defend the Claim at your sole expense; provided, however, that (i) any settlement which would impose a non-monetary obligation on, and/or admission or finding of liability or wrongdoing, by Voidwave will require Voidwave's prior written consent; (ii) the failure to provide timely notice, control, or assistance will not relieve you of your indemnification obligations; and (iii) Voidwave may have its own counsel present at, and participating in, all proceedings or negotiations relating to a Claim, at Voidwave's own expense, unless you fail or refuse to secure legal counsel to defend any Claim in a timely manner, in which case you will pay all expenses related to Voidwave's use of such counsel.
17.3 If Voidwave incurs costs, attorneys' fees or other expenses in responding to any complaint other than a Claim, in connection with or in relation to your Digital Goods (or your activities to promote and/or deliver thereto), including copyright infringement complaints under the DMCA (see below), Voidwave reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to recover such costs and expenses by deducting a reasonable, commensurate amount from any monies owed to you by Voidwave up to a maximum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per event. You understand and agree that the remedies set forth above are not exhaustive and that Voidwave retains all rights to indemnification described herein. You authorize Voidwave to make, and release Voidwave from any liability in connection with, any such deductions.

18. Limitation of Liability
In no event will any Voidwave party, or its heirs, successors and assigns, be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages whatsoever arising out of, resulting from, or in connection with, this Agreement and/or any (a) use of or inability to use the Platform, (b) personal injury, property damage, or losses of any kind, resulting from your access to and/or use of the Platform, (c) unauthorized access to or use of any and all personal information and/or financial information stored therein, (d) interruption or cessation of transmission to or from the Platform, and/or (e) bugs, viruses, trojan horses, or the like, which may be transmitted to or through the Platform, whether or not Voidwave is advised of the possibility of such damages. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the maximum cumulative and aggregate liability of Voidwave for all costs, losses or damages from claims arising under, or related in any way to, this Agreement, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, will not exceed an amount equal to the total amounts due and payable by Voidwave to you under this agreement for the month immediately preceding the date upon which such damages accrue. The limitation of liability in this Section 18 is a fundamental element of the basis of the bargain for this Agreement, and reflects a fair allocation of risk between the parties. The Platform, and any Services or information offered through or in association with the Platform, would not be provided without such limitations and you agree that the limitations of liability and disclaimers specified herein will survive and apply even if found to have failed of their essential purpose. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain categories of damages, in such jurisdictions, you agree that the liability of Voidwave will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by such jurisdiction.
