Terms of Service

1. Who we are and what these terms cover

Pollen (“Pollen,” “we,” “us”) is operated by [COMPANY LEGAL NAME], based in Texas, USA. Pollen is building a service that lets people license their videos, photos and audio to companies that use them to train AI models, with people getting paid for the content they contribute.

Pollen hasn't launched yet. These terms cover using this website and joining the waitlist. By joining the waitlist or using the site, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

2. Who can join

Pollen is for adults. You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live, if higher) to join the waitlist, and the same will apply to selling or licensing content and receiving payouts when Pollen launches. By joining, you confirm you meet this requirement.

We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we learn someone under 18 has joined, we will delete their entry. If you think that's happened, email us.

3. The waitlist

• Joining the waitlist is free and doesn't obligate you to anything.
• Joining doesn't guarantee you access to Pollen, a launch date, or any particular feature. We may change, delay, pause, or cancel the product or the waitlist at any time.
• Your position on the list is an estimate. It can change as people join, refer friends, or are removed, and we may let people in in a different order (for example, by region or by the kind of content they have).
• We may remove entries that look fake, duplicated, automated, or abusive, or that break these terms.

4. Sharing and referrals

• You're welcome to share Pollen with friends. One person, one spot.
• Don't game the list: no fake or throwaway emails, bots, buying or selling signups, or spamming people who didn't ask to hear from you.
• If we add referral perks later, we'll explain how they work here. Referral credit would have no cash value and can't be transferred.

5. No promises about earnings

Anything on this site about payouts — per-task rates, examples, or what affects earnings — is an estimate only. We don't promise that you'll earn any amount, or anything at all. Actual rates, eligibility, and payout rules will be set out in the terms you agree to when Pollen launches.

6. Your content (after launch)

You don't upload any videos, photos or audio by joining the waitlist, and joining doesn't give us any rights to your content.

When Pollen launches, content you submit will need to be real and original: photos and recordings you captured yourself, not generated or materially altered with AI, not copied from someone else, and not low-effort filler. We may review every upload and reject or remove content that doesn't meet our standards or a shot list's requirements, and rejected content won't be licensed or paid for.

When Pollen launches, uploading and licensing content will be covered by a separate creator agreement that you'll need to accept. Our plan is that it will reflect the principles on this site: you choose what's for sale, you give clear consent for each upload, faces and voices are never licensed without your explicit opt-in, and you can delete your content. That agreement, not this page, will control.

7. Emails from us

By joining, you agree that we can email you about your spot on the list, Pollen's launch, and updates about the product. Every email will include a way to unsubscribe, and unsubscribing removes you from those emails (you can also ask us to delete your waitlist entry — see section 13).

8. Privacy

Right now we collect your name, your email address, your confirmation that you're 18 or older, and when you signed up. We use this to run the waitlist and contact you about Pollen. We don't sell your email address. Our Privacy Policy [link] explains this in more detail.

9. Using the site

Don't misuse the site: no trying to break or overload it, scraping it, getting around security, submitting other people's email addresses without permission, or using it for anything illegal.

10. Our stuff

The Pollen name, logo, site design, and text belong to [COMPANY LEGAL NAME]. You can link to and share the site, but please don't copy our branding or pass yourself off as Pollen. Photos shown on the site are examples used with their owners' permission.

11. Disclaimers and limits

The site and waitlist are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law allows. We don't promise the site will always be available or error-free.

To the extent the law allows, [COMPANY LEGAL NAME] won't be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the site or the waitlist, and our total liability for any claim related to them is limited to $50. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.

12. Changes to these terms

We'll update these terms as Pollen gets closer to launch. When we do, we'll change the date at the top of this page, and if the change is significant we'll email people on the waitlist. Continuing to use the site or stay on the waitlist after a change means you accept the updated terms.

13. Leaving the waitlist

You can leave anytime. Email us at contact@usepollen.ai from the address you signed up with and we'll delete your entry. We can also remove anyone from the waitlist, for any reason, including breaking these terms.

14. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be handled in the state or federal courts located in [COUNTY] County, Texas, unless the law where you live says otherwise.
