1.3 The Legal Suite and Order of Precedence
These Terms are part of the P3RSON Legal Suite 5.0. The Suite also includes the Privacy Policy, Community Guidelines, the Guardian and COPPA policy, the Stripe Connect Addendum, the P3 Pro and Coins Addendum, the Agency and Brand Addendum, Creator Rights, Dispute Resolution, the Image Rights Addendum, the IP Policy, the Copyright Guide, the DMCA Policy, Notice and Counter-Notice, the Appeals Policy, the Transparency Report, the AI Features Notice, the Biometric and Sensitive Data Notice, the data documents, and the other documents listed in the Legal Hub. A document that applies to a feature you use also binds you for that feature. If two documents conflict, the more specific one controls for its subject. A booking contract controls usage rights in Commissioned Content (Section 2.3). Otherwise these Terms control.
1.4 Apple Terms (iOS App)
If you use the P3RSON iOS app: these Terms are between you and P3RSON, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content, has no obligation to provide maintenance or support, and has no warranty obligation beyond refunding the purchase price where Apple's terms provide it. Apple is not responsible for claims about the app, including product liability, legal-compliance, consumer-protection and intellectual-property claims; P3RSON is. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms for the iOS app and may enforce them against you. You confirm you are not in a country under a U.S. embargo or on a U.S. list of prohibited parties. Apple's Media Services Terms also apply to purchases made through Apple.

SECTION 3: SERVICE DESCRIPTION & FEATURE TERMS
3.1 Platform Overview
P3RSON is a creator-to-brand talent marketplace connecting creators, talent, and agencies with brands seeking professional services. The Platform facilitates bookings, messaging, payments, content collaboration, and creator portfolio management.
3.2 Stripe Connect Payment Processing
Payment Processor Delegation:
- Stripe, Inc. ("Stripe") processes eligible card-paid transactions between users and Agency and Brand subscription billing
- Apple processes P3 Pro and P3 Coins purchases made through Apple In-App Purchase
- Users of Stripe-processed payments acknowledge Stripe's role as payment processor and agree to Stripe's Terms of Service
- Stripe collects and holds card payments. P3RSON never holds your funds. P3RSON is not a bank, escrow agent, trust company or money transmitter, and does not offer you a deposit or stored-value account
Account Requirements & Suspension:
- Creators and agencies must establish a Stripe Connect Express account to receive payouts
- You must accept Stripe's Connected Account Agreement and pass Stripe's identity (KYC) checks before payouts
- Account verification timeline: 24-48 hours
- P3RSON may suspend Stripe Connect accounts for:
- Fraud or suspected fraud
- KYC (Know Your Customer) verification failure
- Violation of these Terms of Service
- Stripe's terms violation
- Chargeback disputes or payment failures (3+ in 90 days)
- Suspension notice: 30-day written notice (except severe cases)
Fee Structure:
- Scope of the 10% platform fee: the 10% platform fee applies to a payment from one user to another user processed through the Platform. It does not apply to P3RSON's own plans (such as P3 Pro and Agency plans) or to purchases of P3 Coins, which are purchases from P3RSON and not payments between users
- "Card-paid" means paid by card or bank payment through Stripe. It does not include purchases made through Apple In-App Purchase, which are governed by Apple's terms
- Platform fee (Smart Escrow bookings): 10% of the gross booking amount
- Platform fee (every other card-paid payment from one user to another user processed through the Platform that is not a Smart Escrow booking, such as fan-to-creator subscriptions, coaching and creator/brand partnerships): 10% of the gross amount
- Platform fee (P3 Coins gifts, tips and support only): 20% of the gross amount; this is the only 20% platform fee, it is separate from bookings, and P3 Coins are never used for bookings
- P3 Coins cash-out fee (cash-out is not available in this version; this fee, the rate and the minimum apply only if cash-out is offered, and only from the date the app shows it as available to you): 5% of the USD value of the P3 Coins cashed out, taken after the 20% platform fee on the gift. The USD value of a P3 Coin for cash-out is the fixed coin rate of 1,000 P3 Coins = $1 USD, so cashable value is the number of coins divided by 1,000, in USD. The minimum cash-out is $10 USD (10,000 P3 Coins). The price paid to buy P3 Coins is not the cash-out rate. Cash-out applies from the date it is made available to you in the app (see "Effective date and availability" below)
- P3 Coins have no cash value except as stated above for creator cash-out. Cash-out is not available in this version. P3 Coins cannot be transferred to another account except as a gift, tip or support in the app. Unused purchased P3 Coins are non-refundable except as required by law or by Apple
- Stripe processing fee: 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction (paid by creator; it reduces the creator payout)
- Fees are deducted from the amount paid. They are never added on top of the price shown to the payer
- There are no card-paid cash tips on the Platform. Tips are made only with P3 Coins
- Agency commission (when the creator is represented by an agency): computed on the amount left after the platform fee, not on the gross amount
- Creator payout: Booking amount - Platform fee - Stripe fee - Agency commission
- Minimum booking: $50 USD per booking (to ensure Stripe fee coverage); does not apply to tips, gifts, support, subscriptions or coaching
- Maximum booking: $100,000 USD per booking; does not apply to tips, gifts, support, subscriptions or coaching
Example Payout Calculation:
- Booking amount: $1,000
- Platform fee (10%): $100
- Stripe fee (2.9% + $0.30): $29.30
- Creator payout: $870.70
Example With an Agency (commission on the post-fee amount):
- Booking amount: $100
- Platform fee (10%): $10
- Agency commission (20% of the $90 left after the platform fee): $18
- Talent share: $72, before the Stripe fee
P3 Coins Cash-Out Table (applies only if cash-out is offered; the 20% gift fee has already been taken before coins reach the creator balance):
| Coins cashed out | USD value | 5% cash-out fee | You receive |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10,000 | $10.00 | $0.50 | $9.50 |
| 25,000 | $25.00 | $1.25 | $23.75 |
| 50,000 | $50.00 | $2.50 | $47.50 |
| 100,000 | $100.00 | $5.00 | $95.00 |
Example, if cash-out is offered: a supporter sends a 50,000-coin gift ($50). The 20% fee is 10,000 coins. The creator balance receives 40,000 coins ($40.00). Cashing out all 40,000 coins would cost a 5% fee of $2.00, so the creator would receive $38.00. P3 Coins are bought in the app through Apple In-App Purchase. The P3 Pro and Coins Addendum has the full coin terms.
Effective date and availability:
- The platform fee and the paid features described in this Section 3.2 apply to each feature from the date that feature is made available to you in the app. P3RSON will show availability in the app
- A feature that is not shown as available in the app is not available to you, and nothing in this Section 3.2 charges a fee on, or makes available, a feature that is not shown as available in the app
3.3 Guardian Approval for Minors (COPPA Compliance)
Scope & Applicability:
- Users under 13 may not create or maintain a P3RSON account; discovered accounts are suspended and handled under the Privacy Policy and Guardian and COPPA Compliance Policy
- Applies to users age 13-17 (minors). The Guardian and COPPA policy explains how we determine age: the date of birth you enter, Apple's Declared Age Range signal where your device provides it, guardian verification, and adult verification before adult-only features
- You confirm your date of birth when you create your account. You cannot change it in the app afterwards. If you entered it by mistake, email support@p3rson.com. A person reviews the request. We cannot promise a result
- Users 18+ have full, unrestricted access
- Guardian = parent, legal guardian, or designated caregiver
- Minor accounts are read-only by default
- Guardian approval is not available in this version of the app. Members aged 13 to 17 have a read-only experience. They can view content and use safety and settings features. They cannot post, like, follow, send messages, buy or hold P3 Coins, buy P3 Pro, or use the private P3 Audit. No one under 18 can use any monetization feature.
- If guardian approval is offered later, it will be shown in the app. The terms that describe it apply only from the date the app shows it as available to you. The Approval Workflow, Approval Duration and Private P3 Audit Boundary parts of this Section describe how guardian approval would work if it is offered
Content Posting Restrictions:
- Minors cannot post content (posts, stories, digital snaps, live streams). Guardian approval is not available in this version, so a minor cannot post
- Content posting includes:
- Posts (photos, text, captions)
- Stories (ephemeral content)
- Digital snaps (collaborative media)
- Live streams (real-time broadcasts)
- Restriction applies even if brand has extended booking offer
Approval Workflow (applies only if and when guardian approval is offered in the app):
- Minor requests approval from guardian via email invitation
- Guardian verifies email address (6-digit code sent to email)
- Guardian reviews current Terms of Service (proof of review via hash validation)
- Guardian digitally signs approval (SHA256 hash stored, signature not stored raw)
- Approval becomes effective for posting and the private P3 Audit only; it does not authorize monetization or commercial activity
Approval Duration & Renewal:
- Approval valid for 1 year (365 days from signature)
- System sends renewal reminder 30 days before expiry
- Expired approval automatically blocks posting until re-approved
- Minor can request new approval at any time
- Guardian can revoke approval anytime
Email Verification Requirements:
- Guardian must verify email address before approval becomes valid
- Verification code sent via email, expires in 24 hours
- Code is 6-digit numeric format
- Code delivery via SendGrid (third-party email service)
Private P3 Audit Boundary:
- If guardian approval is offered, a minor with active guardian approval could submit Digitals to the P3 Audit for private developmental guidance. Until then, a minor cannot use the P3 Audit
- The minor's P3 Index and AI Scout Notes are visible only to the minor and verified guardian
- P3 Audit results for a minor are not published, searchable, shared with brands, used for commercial ranking, or included in a public Media Kit
- P3RSON does not use the private P3 Audit to perform biometric identification or to train generative AI models
- A minor's Digitals go to an AI provider only for the private P3 Audit, and only after the guardian gives a separate consent to that disclosure (see the AI Features Notice and the Guardian and COPPA policy)
Strict No-Monetization Rule:
- Users under 18 cannot receive paid bookings, offers, tips, gifts, subscriptions, paid boosts, sponsorships, NIL deals, P3 Coins, payouts, or other consideration through P3RSON
- Users under 18 cannot create or connect a Stripe account, enter Smart Escrow, display rates, send or accept booking requests, or publish a commercial Media Kit
- A guardian cannot waive or override these restrictions, regardless of project value
- Any pending commercial activity is blocked until the user reaches 18 and completes the adult eligibility flow
3.4 Smart Escrow & Payment Splitting
Booking payments through Smart Escrow are not available in this version of the app. This Section describes the terms that apply if and when Smart Escrow is offered, and only from the date the app shows it as available to you.
What Smart Escrow Is:
- "Smart Escrow" is the name of a P3RSON feature for bookings. It is not a bank account, a deposit account, a trust account, or an escrow-agent service
- The card payment is collected by Stripe, our payment processor, and the funds are held by Stripe, not by P3RSON. P3RSON is not a bank, escrow agent, trust company or money transmitter
- The balance is not a deposit, is not insured by the FDIC, and earns no interest
- Stripe transfers the funds only when P3RSON instructs release under this Section
How Smart Escrow Works:
- Brand initiates a booking and pays; Stripe holds the funds
- Creator confirms the booking
- Creator delivers the service
- Brand approves delivery, or the review period in the booking contract ends
- P3RSON instructs Stripe to release the funds to the split destinations
Release Instructions: P3RSON instructs release when (a) the Brand approves delivery, (b) the review period stated in the booking contract ends and no dispute is open, or (c) a dispute is resolved in favor of release. An open dispute stops automatic release.
Hold Period: P3RSON may hold funds for up to 90 days from funding and may release, return or extend a hold as described in this Section. This is P3RSON's right and not an automatic system guarantee. If a booking is unresolved on day 90 and no dispute is open, P3RSON may instruct a refund to the Brand. Funds in an open dispute may stay held until the dispute is resolved or as Stripe permits.
Split Calculation & Distribution:
- Total booking amount is split as follows:
- Platform Fee (10%): Retained by P3RSON for operation/infrastructure
- Stripe Fee (2.9% + $0.30): Paid to Stripe for payment processing; the creator bears it
- Creator Payout: Remaining amount transferred to creator's Stripe account
- If the creator is represented by an agency, the agency commission is computed on the amount remaining after the platform fee, not on the gross booking amount
- Splits are executed together; if one transfer fails, the release is retried and not reported complete
- Idempotency keys prevent duplicate transfers on retry
Dispute Resolution:
- 30-day window to file dispute after booking completion (disputes@p3rson.com or in the booking thread)
- Evidence: booking messages, photos, contracts, communications
- Investigation SLA: 14 days initial response
- Resolution timeline: 7 days after investigation
- Binding arbitration (no class-action lawsuits)
Refund Eligibility Conditions:
- Refund available within 30 days of transaction
- Eligible reasons: Service not delivered, cancellation agreement, breach of contract
- Non-eligible: Buyer's remorse (after delivery), subjective quality complaints
- Refund processing: 5-10 business days
- Chargeback disputes: P3RSON represents account holder in dispute resolution
- Stripe processing fees are non-refundable: if a payment is refunded, the Stripe processing fee (2.9% + $0.30) is not returned and remains the creator's cost. The platform fee is refunded with the booking only when the booking is refunded in full
- P3RSON may withhold or reverse payouts, fees and P3 Coin value for fraud, chargebacks, policy violations or legal requirement, and may recover any negative balance from future payouts
The Stripe Connect Addendum has the full payout terms.
Media Kit and Digitals sharing
Before creating a share link, review the selected content and give this separate acknowledgement:
I have reviewed this Media Kit and agree to share the selected information and Digitals with people who have this link. I have the rights and permissions needed to share this content and any recipient details I enter. I understand that the link may be forwarded, that recipients are told about recorded opens and views, and that a frozen copy and activity history will be kept under the retention rule below.
Anyone with this link can view the selected information until the link expires or you revoke it. Revoking the link stops future access through it; it cannot recall copies someone already saved. Your Sent history stays available.
Creating a link does not confirm delivery. Recorded opens and views do not prove that a named recipient read the kit, and repeated unsigned-in opens are not unique people. Members under 18 cannot use commercial Media Kit sharing.
When you share a Media Kit or Digitals, we keep a frozen copy of the selected content and a Sent history showing the recipient details you entered, the share date, link settings and recorded activity. Later edits to your profile do not change that copy. We use these records to provide sharing, activity receipts, your history, and security controls.
Sent history and its frozen content remain after a link expires or is revoked and after P3 Pro ends. After P3 Pro ends, your existing history is read-only: you can review it, but you cannot create or resend shares without the required subscription and eligibility. Subscription lapse does not delete your history. Privacy requests and safety controls remain available regardless of subscription status.
We delete this history and its associated personal data when the account is deleted or when a valid legal deletion request requires it. If the law requires preservation of particular records, we restrict those records to that purpose and delete them when the preservation requirement ends. We do not retain all Sent history merely because one record must be preserved. This rule does not let us recall copies already saved outside P3RSON.
Read-only history does not remove link revocation, privacy access, export or deletion rights.
Recipients see the following notice before choosing Continue and view or Leave without viewing, with a link to the Privacy Policy:
Before you view this Media Kit
If you continue, P3RSON will record when this link is opened, how many times it is opened, whether the kit is viewed, and your device type. The sender can see this activity in their Sent history.
You do not need a P3RSON account. We show an unsigned-in viewer as “Someone with the link.” A recipient name entered by the sender does not verify who opened the link. Anyone the link is forwarded to may open it while it remains available.
This activity stays in the sender’s history after the link expires, is revoked, or their P3 Pro ends. We delete it on account deletion or a valid legal deletion request, subject to legally required preservation. For privacy requests, contact privacy@p3rson.com.
We do not use Media Kit link-opening or viewing activity for advertising, and we do not use it to track you across other companies’ apps or websites.
Essential request processing and security logs are separate from the recorded activity shown to the sender. Leaving without viewing does not record a Sent-history open or view.
The link-revocation confirmation is:
Revoke this link? People will no longer be able to use it to view this kit. Your frozen copy and Sent history will remain. Copies already saved outside P3RSON cannot be recalled.
3.5 Subscriptions & Seat-Based Billing
Agency & Brand Plan (billed through Stripe, outside the App Store):
- Price: $100.00 per month USD, including one admin seat
- Additional seats: $10.00 per month per seat
- The Agency & Brand plan is an organization business subscription. You buy it on the web, not through the App Store. It starts on your first successful payment
- It renews automatically every month on the subscription anniversary until you cancel. The price and renewal terms are shown before you pay
- Seat examples: 1 seat $100/month; 3 seats $120/month; 5 seats $140/month; 10 seats $190/month
Seat Management and Proration:
- Admins can add or remove members up to the seat count. Removing a member frees the seat for reassignment
- Adding a seat is prorated for the rest of the current period and charged on the next invoice
- Removing a paid seat takes effect when you confirm it. We credit the unused part of that seat for the current period to your next invoice
- No cash refund for a partial month, except as required by law
Cancellation:
- Cancel any time in the app under Team settings, Billing, Manage billing (Stripe's billing portal opens). There is no cancellation fee

- Payment failure: 7-day grace period with retries and notices; suspension after 14 days unpaid (all functions disabled); reactivation after payment is updated
- We email you at least 30 days before any price increase takes effect. For any plan that renews annually, we email a renewal reminder before each renewal
P3 Pro (purchased through Apple):
- Price: Monthly $19.99 per month or Yearly $199.99 per year. Both plans have the same features. P3 Pro is a personal subscription for P3 Audits and the Media Kit. It is bought through Apple In-App Purchase and is separate from the Agency & Brand plan. Building a Media Kit draft is included; publishing a Media Kit needs a connected Stripe account (see the P3 Pro and Coins Addendum)
- Both plans are auto-renewing until canceled, billed monthly or yearly by Apple according to the plan you choose. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase
- It renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends, at the same price unless Apple has told you of a price change
- Manage or cancel in your device Settings under your name, then Subscriptions. Changes between Monthly and Yearly plans are handled by Apple. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period
- P3RSON does not refund the unused part of a period. Apple handles refunds under its policies
- A free trial, if offered, is shown at purchase and ends when the first charge happens
- Users under 18 cannot buy P3 Pro. The P3 Pro and Coins Addendum has the full terms

- User messages and communications
- Comments and replies to content
Limitations on Immunity: CDA § 230(c)(2) requires P3RSON to:
- Remove content violating intellectual property laws (copyright, trademark)
- Remove content violating laws against sex trafficking, prostitution
- Remove content violating Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) laws
P3RSON's Good Faith Removal:
- P3RSON may voluntarily remove content deemed offensive or inappropriate (beyond legal requirements)
- Removal of legal but offensive content does NOT waive CDA § 230 immunity
- P3RSON is "publisher" for content it creates, but "platform" for user content
Procedures Supporting Immunity:
- DMCA notice-and-takedown system (Section 5.4)
- Community Guidelines enforcement (Section 5.1-5.5)
- Content moderation process (Section 5.3)
- Reporter protections (Section 5.5)
- Progressive discipline framework (Section 5.2)
5.7 Intimate Image Removal (TAKE IT DOWN Act)
Who can ask: the person shown in an intimate image, or someone they authorize. You do not need an account.
How: use the in-app report option labelled "Intimate image removal", or email moderation@p3rson.com with the subject "Intimate image removal".
A valid request includes:
- A physical or electronic signature
- Identification of the image (link or in-app location) with enough detail to find it
- A statement that you believe in good faith that the image was shared without consent, including images made or altered by AI
- Your contact information
What we do: we remove the image within 48 hours of a valid request and make reasonable efforts to find and remove known identical copies. We confirm the removal to you. Images of minors are also reported to NCMEC as required by law. A knowingly false request can lead to account action.

- Legal requirement or court order
- Business decision (30-day notice)
If you delete your account: it is hidden at once and you can restore it for 30 days. Deleting your account does not cancel a subscription: cancel P3 Pro in your device's Subscriptions settings and cancel the Agency and Brand plan in the app under Team settings, Billing. Unspent P3 Coins are forfeited when deletion is final and are not refunded. An organization owner must transfer ownership before deleting.
Upon termination:

SECTION 8: MODIFICATIONS TO TERMS
P3RSON may modify these Terms at any time. Material changes require 30 days' notice, and we ask you to accept the changed Suite before you continue to use the Platform.
Versions and re-acceptance: every legal document carries one Suite version and one date. The Suite version is the same as the app version that ships the text. We ask you to accept again only when we make a material change. A hotfix release that changes no legal text does not ask you to accept again. Continued use after the notice period for a non-material change constitutes acceptance.
SECTION 9: GOVERNING LAW, ARBITRATION, AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
9.1 Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
9.2 Agreement to Arbitrate (Federal Arbitration Act)
You and P3RSON agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the Platform, your account, or our relationship (a "Dispute") will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, and not in court, except as provided in §9.5 and §9.7. This arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 USC § 1 et seq.) and evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce.
9.3 Arbitrator and Procedure
- The arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator selected per JAMS rules.
- Seat of arbitration: Los Angeles, California (telephonic or video hearings available for claims under $10,000).
- The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any threshold dispute about the formation, scope, applicability, or enforceability of this arbitration agreement, except that a court (not the arbitrator) decides whether the Class Action Waiver in §9.4 is enforceable.
- The arbitrator may award any individual relief that a court could award, but only on an individual basis (see §9.4).
- The arbitrator's award is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
9.4 Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver
You and P3RSON each waive any right to a trial by jury and any right to participate in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action. All Disputes must be brought on an individual basis. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If a court finds this Class Action Waiver unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy (and only that claim or remedy) must proceed in court rather than in arbitration, and the rest of this §9 will continue to apply.
9.5 Carve-outs (No Arbitration Required)
This arbitration agreement does not require arbitration of:
- Small-claims-court actions, so long as the claim qualifies and stays in small-claims court (per California Code of Civil Procedure §116.110 et seq. or the equivalent in the consumer's home jurisdiction)
- Actions for temporary or preliminary injunctive relief to protect intellectual property, trade secrets, or account security
- Statutory claims that cannot be required to be arbitrated as a matter of public policy
9.6 Costs and Fees
- P3RSON will pay JAMS filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees for claims under $10,000 brought by a consumer in good faith.
- Each party bears its own attorneys' fees, except as the arbitrator may award fees consistent with applicable law.
9.7 30-Day Opt-Out Right
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending a written notice to legal@p3rson.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms (or within 30 days of any material amendment to this §9). The notice must include your name, email associated with the account, and an unambiguous statement that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out will not affect any other provision of these Terms.
9.8 Survival and Severability
This §9 survives termination of these Terms or your account. If any portion of this §9 (other than the Class Action Waiver in §9.4, which is governed by its own severability rule) is held unenforceable, the remainder will continue in full force.
9.9 Dispute Resolution and Separate Opt-Out
Disputes are governed by the Dispute Resolution policy and this §9. Accepting these Terms does not require a separate arbitration acknowledgment, and the §9.7 opt-out is a separate step that you may take at any time within the 30-day window. We record your acceptance with the time, the document version, and a fingerprint of the text you accepted (see the Privacy Policy).
