  Introduction

  1. 1.1

     The aim of this Content Policy is to provide a safe and welcoming environment for all Rightsholders and readers.

     The Site includes a self-publishing platform (NamiComi Studio), where you can publish your Content. You must create an account on the Site to use NamiComi Studio.

  1. 2.2
     You must own all the rights to your Content, and your Content must not infringe on the copyright, trademark or any other intellectual property rights of any other party, and you must have sufficient intellectual property rights to publish your Content in accordance with these terms.

  1. 2.3
     By publishing your Content on the Site, you automatically grant, and you represent and warrant that you have the right to grant, to us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide right, and license to host, use, copy, reproduce, disclose, publish, broadcast, archive, store, cache, publicly perform, publicly display, reformat, translate, transmit, and excerpt (in whole or in part) such Content for the purpose of distribution, promotion and marketing, and grant and authorize sublicenses of the foregoing. The use and distribution may occur in any media formats and through any media channels.

  1. 2.4
     Monetization of Content

     1. (a)
        Content is classified as either Unmonetized Content or Monetized Content.

     1. (b)
        Rightsholders reserve the sole discretion to change Unmonetized Content to Monetized Content at any time, without prior notice.

     1. (c)
        A net revenue share model of 90% to the Rightsholder and 10% to the Platform (9:1) shall apply to Monetized Content.

     1. (d)
        Net Revenue is calculated as Gross Revenue minus Expenses, including but not limited to payment processing fees. Gross Revenue is the total revenue generated from Monetized Content, calculated based on the quantity of coins used to unlock it.

     1. (e)
        We will provide Rightsholders with reasonable reporting detailing the calculation of Gross Revenue, Expenses, and Net Revenue.

     Access to Monetized Content

     1. (a)
        Monetized Content is unlocked on a monthly basis.

     1. (b)
        The access period ("Unlocked Period") begins at the time of unlocking and ends at midnight UTC on the same calendar date in the following month.

     1. (c)
        For example, if Content is unlocked on January 5th, it will be accessible until February 5th at midnight UTC.

     1. (d)
        If Monetized Content is removed by the Rightsholder for any reason or by us for breach of the Terms during an active Unlocked Period, the Rightsholder may become ineligible to receive the revenue share derived from that specific Unlocked Period.

     1. (e)
        We reserve the right to withhold, revoke, or reclaim the revenue share for the affected Unlocked Period(s) in the event of such removal. This is without prejudice to any other remedies available to us.

     This license does not permit NamiComi to sell your Content, unless you have given us explicit permission in accordance with the terms governing Monetized Content.

  1. 2.7
     You can end this license for specific Content by unpublishing such Content from the Site, or generally by closing your account, except (a) to the extent you shared it with others as part of the Social Network and they copied, re-shared it or stored it, (b) for the reasonable time it takes to remove from backup and other systems, and (c) if its removal is in conflict with the terms governing Monetized Content.

  1. 2.8
     We do not assert any ownership over your Content. You retain full ownership of all of your Content and any intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights associated with your Content. We are not liable for any statements or representations in your Content provided by you in any area on the Site. You are solely responsible for your Content to the Site and you expressly agree to exonerate us from any and all responsibility and to refrain from any legal action against us regarding your Content.
