Creator Agreement

1. Who this is between

This is an agreement between you ("Creator") and TikTok Ads Assistant ("we", "us"). It applies to every short-form video you produce, deliver, or post on our behalf, regardless of platform (TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, etc.).

2. What we ask you to do

• Produce one or more short videos (15–60 seconds) that promote our service in a genuine, user-style way.
• Follow the brief we send you after approval (hook, talking points, on-screen text, CTA, do's and don'ts).
• If you said yes to "post on my own account" in the application, post the approved video on the handle you applied with and keep it live for at least 30 days.
• Use only original footage you have the right to use. No stolen clips, no copyrighted music you don't have a license for, no AI-generated likenesses of real people.
• Disclose the partnership where the platform requires it (e.g. TikTok's "Paid partnership" toggle, "#ad" caption).

3. The funded-demo portion of your payment

Your video needs to show a real order on the site. We handle this by adding a small extra amount (typically $10–$50, our choice) on top of your 50% upfront payment. Once that upfront lands in your bank account (or cheque clears), you withdraw from it and place the order yourself on adsassistants.com so the video shows you genuinely using the product. This is added to your agreed creator fee — never deducted from it. You agree to keep the receipt / order confirmation and share it with us on request.

4. How we pay you

• 50% upfront (creator fee + the funded-demo amount above) after we approve your application and you submit your payout details.
• 50% on approval of the finished video (and, if applicable, after it's posted on your account).
• You choose payment by direct deposit (ACH) to a US or Canadian bank account, or by mailed cheque. You submit those details on a private link we send you only after approval — never on the public application form. You're responsible for any taxes owed on what we pay you.
• If the bank account you provided is wrong or rejects the deposit, you'll need to send corrected details before we can re-send the payment.

5. Approval and revisions

We may ask for up to two rounds of revisions before approving a video. If after revisions the video still doesn't meet the brief (off-message, poor audio/lighting, missing required disclosures, off-brand), we may reject it and the second 50% won't be owed. The upfront 50% is yours to keep as long as you made a genuine attempt and delivered something on time.

6. Ownership and licence

You keep ownership of the raw footage. By delivering the video to us, you grant us a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, edit, reproduce, and run paid ads with the final approved video across our own channels and paid placements. We won't sell or sublicence the footage to unrelated third parties.

7. What you must not do

• Make false or unverifiable claims about results, earnings, or guarantees.
• Impersonate another person or brand.
• Use hate speech, slurs, sexual content, or anything that violates the host platform's community guidelines.
• Buy fake views, likes, or comments on the posted video.
• Run our ad on accounts owned by other people without our written approval.

Breach of this section means we can withhold any unpaid balance and require the video to be taken down.

8. Privacy of your information

We collect the information in your application (name, contact, address, social handles, bank details) only to evaluate your application, brief you, and pay you. Bank details are visible only to our admin team. You can request deletion of your application at any time by emailing us — note that once we've paid you, we may keep payment records as long as tax/banking law requires.

9. Either side can walk away

Either of us can end this arrangement at any time, in writing, for any reason. If we end it after you've started work but before delivery, we'll pay for the work you've genuinely completed. If you end it after taking the upfront 50% without delivering, you agree to refund that amount.

10. The boring legal bit

You're an independent contractor, not an employee. Nothing in this agreement creates a partnership or joint venture. This agreement is governed by the laws of the United States and the state where we're headquartered. Any dispute we can't resolve in good faith will be handled by binding arbitration in that state. If any part of this agreement is found unenforceable, the rest still applies.
