GIMI Terms of Use

Last Updated: April 2025

Welcome to GIMI, a platform operated by TQOE Lda. These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the GIMI platform and its associated services (collectively, the "Platform"). By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and any other rules or policies referenced herein. If you do not agree to these Terms, please refrain from using the Platform.

These Terms of Use (also referred to as "Terms and Conditions" or "T&C") constitute a legally binding agreement (the "Agreement") between you (referred to as "you," "your," "User," or "Contributor") and TQOE Lda. ("we," "us," "our," or "GIMI"). They govern your use of all services offered on the Platform (the "Services"). If you have any questions about your rights or obligations under these Terms, please contact us at Support@gimi.co.

Acceptance of These Terms of Use

By registering an account, submitting content, linking social media accounts, or otherwise using our Services, you confirm that you are at least 16 years old and that you have read, understood, and accept these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms or are under 16 years of age, you are not permitted to use the Services.

Our Creative Community and Services

GIMI is designed to empower a global creative community by enabling Contributors to submit content directly to campaign environments hosted by various Brands. In this context, a "Brand" can be an influential individual, a consumer-facing company, an agency, an entertainment entity, or a Web3 project. Content submitted to GIMI appears as a published “block” and is showcased to the Brand’s audience. Depending on the campaign, Brands may offer personalized rewards for top-performing or selected submissions. All campaign rewards, terms, and participation criteria are disclosed in advance through the relevant campaign interface.

Contributors can submit general content or participate in campaign-based content activations (similar to contests). Each campaign has its own set of rules, objectives, and intellectual property (IP) terms. Brands initiate campaigns by providing creative assets and guidelines, and Contributors then remix, reinterpret, or generate new content based on the campaign brief. This structure allows creators to actively participate in the GIMI ecosystem.

Each campaign is governed by specific terms that may override these general Terms of Use in case of any conflict. Contributors are responsible for reviewing and accepting the specific IP terms of each campaign before making a submission. These campaign-specific terms define the scope of IP ownership and usage rights for the submitted content, which may include:

  • Full IP retention by the Contributor: The creator keeps complete ownership of their content.

  • Conditional IP transfer: The creator transfers IP rights under certain conditions (for example, only if their content is selected as a winner).

  • Complete assignment of IP rights to the Brand: The Brand receives full ownership of the content under the conditions stated in the campaign.

GIMI enhances content discoverability and visibility by indexing and distributing all approved content through the Platform’s interface and via the Brand’s social channels or social graph. This ensures that creative contributions gain exposure to the broad audience connected with the Brand.

Brands and Their Role on GIMI

On GIMI, Brands are verified individuals or organizations (such as consumer brands, public figures, creative agencies, entertainment companies, and Web3 projects) that launch creative campaigns. Each campaign is time-limited; the Brand sets a clear objective, provides branded assets, outlines content guidelines, and defines a reward pool. Users from the Brand’s community or audience are then invited to create and submit content inspired by the campaign’s brief, which they publish on their own social media profiles (e.g., TikTok, X (Twitter), YouTube, Instagram, or Facebook).

Brands on GIMI are responsible for:

  • Content Integrity: Uploading only original or properly licensed content to serve as inspiration for the campaign. All campaign materials (videos, images, audio, text, etc.) must be copyright-free or used with necessary permissions.

  • IP Terms: Setting clear intellectual property terms for the campaign (for example, specifying whether Users retain ownership of their submissions or whether and how the Brand can use the submitted content).

  • Rewards: Defining the reward mechanics (e.g., types of rewards and selection criteria) and fulfilling all promised rewards to Contributors in a timely manner.

  • Campaign Management: Reviewing submissions, shortlisting finalists, and spotlighting notable content using GIMI’s provided tools.

While GIMI provides the infrastructure to track performance metrics, manage submissions, and automate certain reward distributions, the Brand remains solely accountable for honoring its promises and operating within legal boundaries. By launching a campaign, the Brand accepts full liability for the campaign and agrees to abide by GIMI’s platform rules as well as these Terms. This includes delivering any advertised rewards and ensuring that all campaign activities comply with applicable laws and with this Agreement.

Users and Content Participation on GIMI

Users—including fans, creators, and members of a Brand’s audience—can participate in campaigns by creating content inspired by the Brand’s creative prompt. Participation is free for anyone with a registered GIMI account. To join a campaign as a contributor:

  1. Obtain Campaign Assets: Download the Brand’s campaign asset kit and review the campaign brief and guidelines.

  2. Create Your Submission: Develop original or remixed content aligned with the campaign brief (for example, you might create AI-edited visuals, mashup videos, voiceovers, or scene recreations using the provided assets).

  3. Publish on Social Media: Post your content on your linked social media accounts (such as TikTok, X/Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, or Facebook) as required by the campaign instructions.

  4. Earn Creator Credits: Ensure your GIMI account is linked to your posts. As people engage with your content (through likes, shares, comments/replies, and views), you earn Creator Credits (CCs) based on verified engagement metrics, which represent dollar earnings.

All user submissions undergo a moderation process (using automated tools and human review) to ensure they comply with the campaign’s rules and GIMI’s community standards. Content that passes moderation is approved and becomes eligible for engagement tracking. Creator Credits are tallied and updated every 24 hours based on your content’s performance.

Users can redeem their accumulated Creator Credits for monetary rewards (for example, in U.S. dollars) once they meet the minimum redemption threshold. To withdraw these rewards, you will need to link a supported payout method or account. 1 CC is equivalent to a fixed $1 USD in value. Payouts are typically made in USD Coin (USDC, a U.S. dollar–pegged stablecoin) or via fiat currency (through our payment partner, Tipalti), reflecting the value of your CCs in USD. For fiat payouts, you may be required to provide additional information or verification (such as tax or identity documentation) through our payment provider in order to receive your funds. Please note that you must meet any stated minimum credit balance before requesting a payout.

While GIMI automates content visibility and credit calculations, each Brand is solely responsible for delivering the actual rewards promised in their campaign. The Brand also enforces its own campaign-specific IP terms and is in charge of selecting or featuring top submissions.

Users who do not contribute content can still engage with the Platform. Even as an observer, you may explore ongoing campaigns, view submissions, and support creators by liking or sharing content—provided you have an active GIMI account.

By submitting content to a campaign, you confirm that you understand and accept that campaign’s specific IP and content usage terms. You also guarantee that your work is original and does not infringe upon any third-party rights. Furthermore, you agree to abide by these Terms and any additional campaign rules when participating.

No Artificial Engagement

Users are strictly prohibited from using bots, fake accounts, or any form of automation to inflate their content’s engagement metrics. You may not attempt to manipulate the performance of your submissions (or others’ submissions) through any fraudulent or artificial means. GIMI reserves the right to take immediate action against such behavior. Such action may include:

  • Removal or disqualification of the offending content (for example, deleting the submission or marking it as ineligible).

  • Permanent suspension of the offending account.

  • Forfeiture of all accumulated Creator Credits and any pending rewards.

  • Disqualification from current and future campaigns.

GIMI alone will determine what constitutes fraudulent activity or manipulation, and all decisions in this regard are made at GIMI’s sole discretion.

Submitted Content and Associated Rights

When you submit content to a campaign, you represent and warrant that your work is original to you and does not violate any copyright, trademark, or other rights of any third party. You retain ownership of the content you create and submit, except in cases where a campaign’s specific terms explicitly stipulate a different arrangement (such as a transfer of rights to the Brand).

Each Brand defines the licensing terms for its campaign. These campaign-specific terms will outline how both you and the Brand are permitted to use the submitted content. For example, a campaign’s terms may specify that submissions are limited to:

  • Non-commercial use only: Your content (and any Brand-provided assets within it) can only be used for personal or engagement purposes and cannot be sold or commercially exploited by any party.

  • Limited commercial use: Your content can be used in monetized contexts (e.g., earning ad revenue on social platforms or receiving Creator Credit rewards on GIMI), but there may be some restrictions on resale or broad commercial distribution.

  • Full commercial licensing: Your content may be licensed or used commercially by the Brand (or by you) as permitted, potentially contingent on performance or selection (for example, winners might grant the Brand a license to use the content in marketing).

GIMI’s role is to facilitate these campaigns and to ensure that Brands clearly communicate the scope of permissible use for any provided assets and for user submissions. We provide the technical infrastructure for content submission, distribution, and the management of IP-related metadata, but GIMI does not take ownership of your submitted content.

As a Contributor, you are granted certain rights and benefits when participating in a campaign:

  • You may use the Brand’s provided assets only for the purpose of creating and submitting content to that campaign, and only in line with the campaign’s specified licensing scope and creative guidelines.

  • You retain the intellectual property rights to your original contributions, regardless of the outcome of the campaign, unless a specific campaign term clearly requires you to transfer or license those rights to the Brand.

  • You earn Creator Credits (CCs) based on the genuine engagement your content receives across social media platforms (measured via views, likes, shares, and replies, as verified by the Platform).

  • You can redeem your accumulated Creator Credits for monetary rewards (e.g., converting CCs to USD payouts) once you meet the eligibility criteria and follow the redemption procedure.

By submitting content, you agree to follow the campaign’s rules for content use and licensing. You understand the scope of the license you receive from the Brand (for using their assets) and the license or rights you may be granting to the Brand or GIMI (as specified by the campaign’s terms).

GIMI strives to maintain transparency in how content and IP rights are handled on the Platform. We do not claim any ownership over user-submitted content, and your rights to your work remain yours except where you have explicitly agreed to share or transfer those rights under a campaign’s terms.

The Funding System

GIMI uses a performance-based accounting mechanism to fairly and transparently distribute campaign rewards. Brands deposit funds in USD, and those funds are distributed using a proprietary engagement score that evaluates content performance across social media (likes, shares, replies, and views).

These funds are represented internally as Creator Credits (CCs) to allocate rewards within the system. CCs are not a stored value or currency, and they cannot be transferred, traded, or purchased. They are a closed accounting unit representing dollars earned through performance.

The reward pool is allocated to Contributors in two primary ways:

  • Performance-Based Distribution: The majority of the CC reward pool is distributed proportionally to Users based on the verified engagement their submissions receive. In other words, the more genuine likes, shares, replies, and views your content accumulates (relative to other submissions in the campaign), the more credits you earn from the pool.

  • Spotlight Tipping: Brands have the option to allocate a portion of the reward pool as bonus credits to highlight and reward standout submissions. A Brand may “spotlight” certain content that exemplifies creativity, effort, or alignment with the campaign’s objectives, and grant additional CCs to those creators. Spotlighted content may also receive increased visibility on the Platform.

Contributors accumulate CCs through these mechanisms over the course of the campaign. You can request to redeem your earned CCs for cash once you have met any minimum redemption threshold set by the Platform. Payouts are available either in the form of USD Coin (USDC, a U.S. dollar–pegged stablecoin) or via fiat currency through our payment partner (Tipalti). You are solely responsible for any taxes or fees associated with any rewards you receive. GIMI will not withhold taxes on your behalf, and you may be required to provide certain tax or identification information (for example, completing a tax form) before receiving a payout, if required by applicable law.

This funding system is designed to reward authentic engagement and creative effort while allowing Brands to directly incentivize their community in a transparent and compliant manner.

Ownership of Creations You Share

Except where otherwise specified in a particular campaign’s terms, any content you create and share through a campaign remains your intellectual property. Brands that launch campaigns are required to outline what licensing rights they are asking for when you participate—whether they only need a limited right to use your content for promotional purposes or whether they intend to obtain broader usage or ownership rights. Always review the campaign’s specific terms to understand what rights you are granting to the Brand.

GIMI does not claim ownership of any content you submit. Our Platform serves as a neutral host and facilitator for the creative process. We enable:

  • The submission and distribution of your content to the Brand’s campaign and audience.

  • The recording of pertinent information about your content and any applicable IP rights or licenses (to ensure clarity on who owns what and how content can be used).

  • The processes for content moderation, display on the Platform, and reward redemption associated with your submissions.

In essence, GIMI provides the tools and infrastructure, but the creative works remain yours unless you explicitly agree to transfer them. If a campaign’s terms include an exclusive license or a full transfer of IP rights to the Brand (for example, some contests might require that winning entries become the property of the Brand), those conditions will be clearly stated before you submit to that campaign. You are never obligated to surrender rights to your work unless you voluntarily choose to participate under such terms.

You retain the right to use your own content for other purposes outside of GIMI, unless the campaign’s terms explicitly place restrictions on doing so (such as a requirement that you not reuse the content elsewhere, or that you grant exclusivity to the Brand). If any such restrictions or transfer of rights are part of a campaign, you will be informed of them in advance as part of that campaign’s rules.

Please note that GIMI’s own trademarks, logos, and branding (the “GIMI” name, logo, etc.) remain our exclusive property. Likewise, all third-party trademarks or assets (for example, Brand logos or media provided in a campaign) remain the property of their respective owners and are used on the Platform solely in accordance with the campaign’s terms and the owners’ permissions. Nothing in these Terms or on the Platform grants you any rights to use any third-party intellectual property outside of your participation in a campaign, and then only in the ways that the campaign explicitly allows.

By participating in campaigns, you agree to respect all intellectual property boundaries set forth by both the Brands and GIMI. You acknowledge that your use of any Brand assets will follow the campaign’s specific guidelines, and any use of your submitted content by the Brand or others will adhere to the licensing terms you agreed to in that campaign.

Obligations of the Brands

Brands that launch campaigns on GIMI must adhere to the following obligations:

  • Content Integrity: Once user-submitted content is approved and published as part of a campaign, the Brand may not unilaterally remove, alter, or misuse that content. Brands should honor the integrity of creator submissions. Removals or alterations are only permitted if the content violates the campaign’s guidelines or is deemed inappropriate under GIMI’s community standards (in which case GIMI’s moderation policies will apply).

  • Legal Compliance: Brands must ensure that all materials they upload or provide for a campaign (including videos, images, audio, text, or other assets) are either original to the Brand or properly licensed for the intended use. The Brand is solely responsible for securing any necessary rights and permissions for these campaign assets. GIMI is not liable for any copyright or IP violations in the Brand’s provided materials.

  • Originality and Liability: By providing content and prompts for a campaign, the Brand confirms that using these materials in user submissions will not infringe on any third-party intellectual property rights. The Brand accepts full liability for any claims or legal issues that arise from the use of the Brand’s campaign content. In the event of a dispute or claim (such as a copyright infringement allegation related to the Brand’s materials), the Brand agrees to compensate GIMI for any damages, losses, or legal fees incurred due to such issues.

  • Indemnification of Platform: Brands agree to indemnify and hold GIMI (including our affiliates and users) harmless from any losses, liabilities, or costs (including reasonable legal fees) that result from:


    • The Brand’s failure to deliver promised rewards or fulfill campaign obligations.

    • Any misrepresentation by the Brand regarding the campaign’s licensing or IP terms.

    • Content or assets provided by the Brand for the campaign (for example, if the Brand’s provided media is used without proper permission and a third party takes legal action).

    • Any legal disputes initiated by third parties that stem from the Brand’s campaign or conduct on the Platform.

  • Respectful Conduct: Brands must conduct themselves in a professional and respectful manner on GIMI. This means refraining from any behavior or public communications that could harm the reputation of GIMI, its community, partners, or other users. Harassing, defamatory, or offensive behavior by a Brand (or its representatives) is strictly prohibited.

  • Content Usage Rights to GIMI: The Brand grants GIMI the right to use and display the Brand’s name, logo, and any campaign-related media assets solely for the purposes of operating the campaign and promoting it within the Platform. For example, GIMI may show the Brand’s logo and campaign images on the campaign page, in promotional emails, or in presentations showcasing the Platform. GIMI will not use the Brand’s content outside of the Platform’s context without permission.

  • Intellectual Property Rights Management: Any intellectual property created by the Brand (such as the Brand’s own campaign assets or original content uploaded to GIMI) remains the Brand’s property. However, GIMI may act as a neutral host or repository for campaign content and related assets as part of providing the campaign infrastructure. Brands must also respect the ownership and licensing of user-generated content as defined by each campaign’s terms — meaning Brands can only use submissions in accordance with the permissions granted by the creators.

  • Platform Interaction: By running a campaign on GIMI, Brands acknowledge that Users might remix or adapt the Brand’s campaign materials in their submissions (within the boundaries of the campaign’s rules). This collaborative creative process is core to GIMI’s value. Brands should not unduly restrict derivative creativity beyond what is specified in the campaign terms. GIMI will facilitate these creative interactions and will not prevent Users from interpreting the Brand’s prompt in various creative ways, so long as they remain within the allowed scope.

  • No Promotion Guarantee: GIMI will make the campaign visible on the Platform and to the Brand’s connected audience as part of normal operations, but GIMI is not obligated to provide any additional promotion or marketing for the Brand’s campaign beyond the standard Platform features. Any extra promotion (for example, featuring the campaign on GIMI’s home page or social media channels) is at GIMI’s discretion.

  • Perpetual Media Rights for Platform: GIMI reserves the right to feature the Brand’s campaign and associated content in its own promotional materials, case studies, or archives, even after the campaign concludes. For instance, GIMI might include a screenshot or description of the Brand’s campaign in a portfolio of successful campaigns or keep the campaign’s content accessible as part of a historical archive. This usage will be limited to the context of showcasing the Platform’s functionality and community creativity.

  • Funding and Reward Distribution: By using GIMI, the Brand authorizes GIMI to manage the distribution of the campaign’s reward pool (the Creator Credits) according to the rules the Brand configured. GIMI will handle the technical aspects of tracking engagement and allocating credits. The Brand is responsible for ensuring the reward pool is adequately funded and for approving any manual rewards (like spotlight tipping) through the provided tools.

Use of the Services & Community Guidelines

When using the GIMI Platform and Services, you agree to act lawfully, respectfully, and in a manner that contributes to a positive creative community. Any misuse of the Platform, campaigns, or community features can result in immediate suspension or a permanent ban from GIMI.

Prohibited Conduct: You may not use the Platform (including any campaign or community feature) to:

  • Harm, disrupt, or interfere with the security or performance of GIMI or our users’ data.


    • (For example, attempting to bypass security measures, overloading the system, or launching any form of malicious attack.)

  • Violate any applicable law or regulation, or infringe upon the rights of others (including intellectual property rights and privacy rights).

  • Post or share content that is offensive, defamatory, obscene, pornographic, harassing, hateful, or discriminatory, or that otherwise violates good standards of conduct.

  • Upload or distribute malware, viruses, or any malicious code that could compromise the Platform or other users’ devices.

  • Misrepresent your identity or affiliation, or impersonate any other person or entity (including other users or Brands).

  • Engage in any activity that undermines the integrity of GIMI’s services or reputation. This includes attempting to decompile or reverse-engineer the Platform, or using the Platform in a way not authorized by GIMI.

Botting, Engagement Farming & Artificial Manipulation

GIMI strictly prohibits any attempt to manipulate engagement metrics or exploit the reward system. Any behavior aimed at “gaming” the system is not allowed. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Using bots, scripts, click farms, fake accounts, or any automated means to artificially inflate views, likes, shares, or comments on content.

  • Coordinating with groups or using multiple accounts to repeatedly boost engagement in a non-genuine way solely to increase Creator Credit earnings.

  • Copy-pasting, reposting, or spamming identical or low-effort content across multiple campaigns to gain visibility or rewards without providing real creative value.

If a user is found to be engaging in any form of artificial engagement or fraudulent activity, GIMI reserves the right to take immediate action. Such action may include removing or disqualifying the content, permanently banning the user from the Platform, and forfeiting any accumulated Creator Credits or rewards. GIMI may audit content and engagement patterns at any time (using both internal monitoring and external analytic tools) to enforce these rules. All decisions regarding fraudulent activity and enforcement are made at GIMI’s sole discretion.

Platform Security & Access: You must not attempt to access areas of the Platform or servers that are not intended for public use. Any attempt to bypass access restrictions, to test the vulnerability of our systems, or to breach any security or authentication measures is prohibited. Similarly, you are not allowed to tamper with or remove any rights management information, digital watermarking, or security features embedded in the Platform or in any content. Unauthorized collection of user data or campaign metadata (for example, scraping information without permission) is also strictly forbidden.

Privacy and Data Protection (GDPR)

By using GIMI, you also agree to our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, store, and share your personal information. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or another region with data protection laws (such as the GDPR), you have certain rights regarding your personal data. GIMI is committed to complying with applicable data protection laws. For example, if you are an EU resident, you have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, and to restrict or object to certain processing of your data.

We do not sell personal data to third parties. Any personal information you provide is used solely in accordance with our Privacy Policy and for the purpose of operating and improving the Platform and Services. By using the Platform, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred and stored outside of your country of residence (including in Portugal and other countries where our service providers operate), and you consent to such transfer as outlined in the Privacy Policy.

If you have questions about how GIMI handles personal data or wish to exercise your privacy rights, please refer to our Privacy Policy for contact information and further guidance.

Security Measures

GIMI is committed to maintaining a secure and reliable Platform. We implement a range of security measures to protect our systems and users; however, no platform is 100% immune to risks. We do not guarantee that the Platform will be free of viruses, malware, or other harmful components at all times. We encourage you to use up-to-date security software on your devices and to exercise caution when interacting with any online service.

To preserve the integrity and performance of our Services, GIMI may occasionally need to impose temporary restrictions or take proactive measures without prior notice. For example, we may:

  • Temporarily limit or throttle certain activities or access for users in order to prevent abuse or system overload.

  • Block specific IP addresses or user accounts that are detected engaging in suspicious, harmful, or unauthorized activities.

  • Suspend accounts or content that pose security risks or violate these Terms.

  • Take the Platform offline for maintenance, updates, or security upgrades (we strive to schedule maintenance during low-usage periods when possible).

These actions are intended to protect our community and infrastructure. We understand that they may be inconvenient, but they are sometimes necessary to ensure the long-term security and viability of GIMI.

Service Availability and Access Restrictions

While we strive to keep GIMI available and fully functional at all times, we may suspend or restrict access to the Platform (in whole or in part) for various reasons. Such cases include:

  • Security or Safety Concerns: We may limit or block access if needed to protect the security of user data, communications, or our systems (for example, in response to a detected attack or critical vulnerability).

  • Maintenance and Upgrades: Periodic maintenance, system updates, or improvements may require us to temporarily take the Platform offline or disable certain features. We aim to minimize disruption, but emergency fixes or updates might occur without notice.

  • Legal Compliance: Changes in laws or regulations, or orders from government authorities, might necessitate restricting access to certain features, users, or regions to ensure compliance.

  • Detection of Misuse: If we suspect a user or group of users is engaging in fraud, abuse, unauthorized data scraping, botting, or any activity prohibited by these Terms, we may suspend or restrict their access (either temporarily during investigation or permanently).

  • Protecting the Community: Any behavior that threatens the stability of the Platform, the fairness of campaigns, or the well-being of the community can result in access restrictions. This includes activities that could overburden our infrastructure or significantly harm GIMI’s reputation.

GIMI reserves the right to shut down the Platform or disable specific features at our discretion, whether temporarily or permanently, with or without prior notice. We also reserve the right to ban or refuse service to users whose repeated behavior is harmful, toxic, or contrary to the spirit of the community and campaign participation. This includes rejecting content contributions from such users or removing them from ongoing and future campaigns.

Termination of Use

We hope to foster a long-term creative community, but you should be aware that GIMI may terminate or restrict your access to the Platform and Services at any time, for any reason or no stated reason. This includes (but is not limited to) situations involving your violation of these Terms, suspected fraudulent or illegal activities, or actions that we determine are harmful to the GIMI ecosystem or other users. Such termination may occur without prior notice. If your account is terminated, you may lose access to any content or credits associated with your account, subject to our data retention policies and the terms of any specific campaign.

Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless GIMI (TQOE Lda.), along with our officers, directors, employees, partners, affiliates, and agents, from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that arise out of or relate to:

  • Your access to or use of the Platform and Services.

  • Any content you submit (or that is submitted from your account), including any intellectual property disputes or allegations that your content infringes or misappropriates the rights of a third party.

  • Any breach or violation of these Terms by you.

  • Your violation of any applicable law or regulation in connection with your activities on GIMI.

  • Any claim from a third party based on your actions, content, or information on the Platform.

You agree to cooperate with us in good faith in the defense of any such claim. We reserve the right to assume exclusive control of the defense of any matter subject to indemnification by you (at our own expense), and you agree not to settle any such matter without our prior written consent.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Your use of GIMI is at your own risk. The Platform and all Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the maximum extent allowed by applicable law, GIMI disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, regarding the Platform and Services. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Implied Warranties: We do not provide any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. In plain terms, we are not making promises that the Platform will meet all of your needs, work perfectly for any specific purpose you have in mind, or operate without error.

  • Service Quality and Uptime: GIMI does not guarantee that the Platform will be continuously available, uninterrupted, or error-free at all times. We do not warrant that any specific outcomes or results (for example, success in a campaign or a certain level of engagement for your content) will be achieved through the use of the Platform.

We make no promises or guarantees about any potential earnings or value you may obtain through the Platform. Creator Credits and campaign rewards are provided as described, but they are not guaranteed to have monetary value beyond what is explicitly stated (e.g., 1 CC = 1 USD for redemption purposes). We are not responsible for any assumptions you make about the amount of rewards or benefits you will gain.

Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances will GIMI, TQOE Lda., or any of our affiliates, directors, officers, employees, or agents be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenues, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Platform or Services. This limitation of liability applies to any claim, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other legal theory, and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

In jurisdictions that do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, our liability will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Additionally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, TQOE Lda. (and its affiliated parties) shall not be liable for any damages or losses resulting from:

  • Service Interruptions: Your use of, or inability to use, the Platform, including any delays, interruptions, errors, data corruption, communication failures, or unauthorized access incidents.

  • External Issues: Technical failures of external networks or services beyond our control (for example, internet outages, disruptions in social media platforms or other third-party integrations that GIMI relies on).

  • Third-Party Services: The suspension, malfunction, or misuse of third-party services, hosting infrastructure, or external APIs that are integrated with or used by the Platform.

  • Malicious Acts: Illegitimate actions or misconduct by third parties, including hacking, phishing, denial-of-service attacks, or fraud that may affect the Platform or its users.

These liability exclusions and limitations shall not apply to the extent they pertain to GIMI’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, or any other liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court or other authority of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the narrowest extent necessary to make it enforceable (and if modification is not possible, that provision shall be deemed severed from these Terms). In either case, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms in a given instance shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

Changes and Amendments

TQOE Lda. reserves the right to amend, modify, update, or remove portions of these Terms of Use at any time. Changes will take effect immediately upon being posted on our website or Platform. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically for any updates.

If we make significant changes to the Terms, we will attempt to notify users through appropriate channels (for example, via an announcement on the Platform or an email notification, if you have provided an email address). By continuing to access or use GIMI after updated Terms have been posted, you will be deemed to have accepted the changes. If you do not agree with any modifications to the Terms, you must stop using the Platform and Services.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

This Agreement and any disputes arising from or relating to the Terms or your use of the Platform shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Portugal, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. You and GIMI agree that any such disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Lisbon, Portugal, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. You agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive any objections to the convenience or appropriateness of such venues.

Contact Us

If you have any questions, concerns, or need further clarification about these Terms of Use, please feel free to contact us. Our support team can be reached at Support@gimi.co. We value your feedback and will do our best to address your inquiries promptly.

1. Our platform

BlockBook is a platform designed to foster creativity and collaboration by allowing users to contribute original content in response to challenges known as "Campaigns," which are initiated by organisations including brands, agencies, labels, and intellectual property owners (collectively, "Organisations").

Users can submit various types of content—such as videos, images, audio recordings, text, and URLs—to ongoing campaigns hosted on the Platform. These campaigns are curated and led by Organisations and are intended to elicit creative responses from the community. Once submitted, content undergoes a moderation and approval process. Only approved content will be published on the Organisation's BlockBook and made visible to the Organisation and other Users.

Organisations may offer rewards, incentives, or visibility in exchange for submissions, and may define specific terms governing intellectual property (IP) ownership as part of each Spark.

2. Content submissions and ownership

As a Contributor, you retain ownership of the content you submit to the Platform, except where otherwise specified under Spark-specific terms. You agree that all content you submit:

  • Is original and does not infringe any third-party rights;
  • Complies with all applicable laws;
  • Is subject to review and approval by BlockBook;
  • May be declined or removed if deemed inappropriate, offensive, infringing, or otherwise in violation of these Terms.

Where applicable, GIMI may, as an optional enrichment feature, mint your content as a non-fungible token (NFT) using blockchain technology to establish timestamped proof of authorship and authenticity. This service is offered to enhance ownership transparency, but it is not required to participate in the Platform.

You may redeem NFTs associated with your approved content by connecting a compatible wallet and covering any applicable transaction (gas) fees.

3. Campaign terms and IP transfer options

Each Campaign hosted by an Organisation may include specific terms that override any conflicting general Platform rules. These terms will define the intellectual property structure applicable to submissions. You agree to review and accept the terms associated with each Spark before submitting content.

There are three primary IP ownership models applicable to Sparks:

  • Full IP Retention: Contributors retain all rights to their content and may redeem NFTs associated with their works.
  • Conditional IP Transfer: Only selected winning submissions will have their IP transferred to the Organisation, and Contributors whose submissions are not selected retain full rights.
  • Complete IP Transfer: All rights to all submitted content are transferred to the Organisation upon submission, making those IP assets non-redeemable by the Contributor.

Organisations must clearly state which of the above models applies to their Campaign, and Contributors are solely responsible for understanding and accepting those terms prior to participation.

4. Moderation and content review

All submitted content, including URLs, is subject to moderation and must meet the Platform's community standards and technical specifications. GIMI reserves the right to reject, remove, or moderate any content at its sole discretion, especially where such content:

  • Violates any applicable law or regulation;
  • Infringes third-party intellectual property rights;
  • Contains offensive, defamatory, or abusive language or imagery;
  • Includes malware, viruses, or other harmful components.

Approved content will be published to the Organisation's GIMI and may be distributed to the wider GIMI community.

5. Organisation obligations

  • Launch Sparks with clear rules and IP flow structures;
  • Provide timely rewards or recognition where promised;
  • Use original or legally licensed materials in all campaign assets;
  • Allow approved contributions to remain visible on the Platform unless removed for cause;
  • Grant GIMI the non-exclusive right to promote, distribute, and showcase campaign content across its channels.

Organisations are fully responsible for the campaigns they initiate, including but not limited to legal compliance, reward fulfillment, and IP terms enforcement.

6. Creator credits and rewards system

Users may earn Creator Credits by engaging with the Platform—receiving likes, shares, and other forms of validation from Organisations and the community. These Credits may be used to:

  • Access premium features;
  • Vote in community decisions;
  • Participate in gated campaigns;
  • Redeem eligible platform rewards.

Creator Credits have no monetary value and are non-transferable outside the Platform. They do not constitute digital financial instruments or securities.

7. Fees and contributor credit pools

Each Organisation may launch a Campaign by paying a standard service fee of $1 USD. In addition, Organisations may allocate a campaign budget toward Creator Credit (CC) Pools. These Pools are used to distribute Creator Credits to Contributors based on engagement, such as likes, shares, and spotlighting by the Organisation or the Platform.

GIMI applies a 20% service fee to the budget allocated for CC Pools, with the remaining 80% directed to the distribution of Creator Credits among eligible Contributors.

Users may be required to cover any applicable blockchain transaction (gas) fees for redeeming on-chain IP Assets.

8. Acceptable usage and restrictions

  • Impersonate others or misrepresent your identity;
  • Upload, distribute, or transmit illegal, offensive, or infringing materials;
  • Circumvent or tamper with Platform security features;
  • Deploy bots, scrapers, or unauthorized automated tools;
  • Use the Platform to disseminate malware or harm other Users.

Violation of these rules may result in removal of your content, suspension of your account, and potential legal liability.

9. Third-party platform integration

BlockBook may offer optional integration with third-party platforms, including but not limited to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and X (formerly Twitter). Where such integrations are enabled, the following terms apply:

  • You acknowledge that content or engagement data from these third-party services may be accessed or retrieved only with your explicit authorization.
  • This information is used solely for the purposes of enriching your experience on the Platform, including showcasing your engagement, verifying your influence, or amplifying campaign reach.
  • You may revoke access or request deletion of any third-party data submitted to GIMI by contacting Support@gimi.co.
  • GIMI does not store or republish media hosted on third-party platforms unless express permission is granted by the content owner.
  • TikTok and other third-party names, logos, and trademarks referenced are the property of their respective owners. BlockBook is not affiliated with or endorsed by TikTok, Meta Platforms, Google, or other entities unless explicitly stated.

10. Service availability and termination

We may modify, suspend, or terminate Platform access at any time, with or without notice, in response to:

  • Technical issues or system maintenance;
  • Suspected fraud or abuse;
  • Legal obligations or regulatory requirements;
  • Violations of these Terms.

We reserve the right to ban or restrict access to Users who jeopardize the safety or spirit of our creative community.

11. Assumption of risk

By using the Platform, you acknowledge that:

  • Use of blockchain, NFTs, and associated technologies carries inherent risks;
  • You are solely responsible for securing your wallet and private keys;
  • Digital assets may experience extreme volatility and lack intrinsic value;
  • Participation is intended for creative expression and not financial speculation.

BlockBook shall not be liable for any losses arising from your use of the Platform, including content loss, digital asset theft, or service downtime.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless GIMI, TQOE Lda., its officers, directors, affiliates, employees, agents, and partners from any claims, damages, or liabilities arising out of:

  • Your access to or use of the Platform;
  • Your content submissions;
  • Your breach of these Terms;
  • Your violation of third-party rights.

13. Changes to these terms

We may amend these Terms at any time. Updated versions will be posted on our website with the "Last Updated" date modified accordingly. Continued use of the Platform constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

14. Governing law and dispute resolution

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of Portugal. Any disputes shall be resolved by the courts of Lisbon, Portugal, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
