• About
  • The Website is a social media website and application service which allows Users to create a profile, upload photos and videos onto their profile, set a monthly subscription price payable by other Users who wish to view their User Content and thereby generate revenue from Fans.
  • These Terms govern your use of the Website, including any content, functionality, and services offered on or through the Website whether part of HookMe. By registering with and using HookMe, you hereby accept and agree to be bound by and abide by these Terms. If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Service, you must not access or use the Website.
  • Any information given on the Website including responses to “frequently answered questions” is not legally binding on HookMe is informative only and does not form part of the Terms.
  • The Website is only offered and available to Users who are 18 years of age or older. By using the Website, you represent and warrant that you are 18 years of age, that you are of legal age to form a binding contract with HookMe. If you do not meet all of these conditions, you must not access or use the Website. The Privacy Policy outlines in greater detail how HookMe uses third parties to verify your eligibility.
  • HookMe reserves the right to make changes to these Terms at any time and at HookMe’s sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately from the time HookMe posts them, and apply to all access to and use of the Website thereafter. By continuing to use HookMe, you agree to the Terms as modified or as they currently appear. You are expected to check this page from time to time so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you.
  • By using HookMe you consent to receiving communications from HookMe electronically, including emails and messages posted to your HookMe account, all as more fully detailed in the Privacy Policy (available here) (http://www.hookme.io/privacy). You acknowledge and agree that all communications that HookMe sends to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. If you wish at any time to withdraw your consent to receiving communications from HookMe, please email [email protected], notifying HookMe of the withdrawal of your consent.
  • HookMe does not own User Content on HookMe and views expressed by Users on HookMe do not represent HookMe’s views. All transactions and interactions regarding User Content on HookMe are between Users. Except when HookMe acts as the agent of a Creator to receive payment for the Creator from a Fan (as further described in clause 1.8), at no point will HookMe be a party to or be responsible for any transaction or interaction between Users.
  • Where HookMe receives payment from a Fan to view User Content uploaded by a Creator or utilise Fan Interaction, HookMe receives such payment on behalf of the Creator and not the Fan. On receipt of payment by HookMe the Creator shall have no right of action against the Fan for non-payment and the Creator shall be obliged to allow the Fan to view the User Content and utilise Fan Interaction (where applicable). Section 4 further describes the payment process.
  • HookMe reserves the right at any time and without notice to:
    • modify, suspend or terminate HookMe or any portion thereof;
    • restrict, limit, suspend or terminate your access to HookMe or any portion thereof;
    • delete any content you post on HookMe as a Creator if in HookMe’s reasonable opinion it does not comply with these Terms and/or any applicable law;
    • monitor your use of HookMe (including any content or message you post or broadcast on HookMe) to verify compliance with these Terms and/or any applicable law;
    • investigate any suspected or alleged misuse or unlawful use of HookMe and cooperate with law enforcement agencies in such investigation;
    • disclose information about your use of HookMe in connection with law enforcement investigation of any suspected or alleged illegal activity, or in response to a lawful court order; or
    • change the Payment Providers. If HookMe does this then HookMe will use its reasonable endeavours to verify the bona fides and good standing of the new Payment Provider and notify the User and applicable details will be uploaded to the User Account.
  • From time to time, HookMe may restrict access to some parts of the Website, or the entire Website, to Users.
• How It Works
  • HookMe is a social media platform that lets you create a User profile, which in turn allows you to:
    • upload User Content to be viewed by other Users or Fan Interaction to be used by other Fans; and/or
    • pay to view another User’s User Content or use another User’s Fan Interaction.
• Account Registration
  • To become a User you must register and create a User Account on HookMe. You must provide a valid email address, a username, and a password or a valid Twitter account. It is a condition of your use of the Website that all the information you provide on the Website is correct, current, and complete.
  • You agree that all information you provide as a User or otherwise, including but not limited to information provided through the use of any interactive features on the Website, is governed by HookMe’s Privacy Policy at https://hookme.io/privacy (/privacy), and you proceed on the basis that you are aware of how and why HookMe process your personal data, as is set out in HookMe’s Privacy Policy.
  • If you wish to view User Content you will need to provide details of a payment card to a Payment Provider. Your payment card information is stored by the Payment Provider.
  • If you elect to input two or more payment card details onto your User Account if payment of the Revenue from the first card is rejected because the payment card is no longer valid then the other payment card(s) will be used to collect full payment of the Revenue.
  • If you are a Creator and wish to receive payment of Commissions, you will need to include onto your User Account Payout Options and upload a valid form of ID. You may also need to submit additional legal information, such as a W-9 if you are resident in the United States of America. The exact information required will depend on your country of residence. Amounts due to you as a Creator from Fans will be paid to you by one of our Payment Providers in accordance with your Payout Options. With the exception of Creators wishing to receive payment by direct bank transfer from HookMe, HookMe does not store any data disclosed by you when you register your Payout Options with the Payment Provider. Section 4 further describes the payment processes.
  • By registering on HookMe, you confirm that:
    • all User Account registration and profile information is truthful and accurate and that any User Content you provide is your own and does not infringe the intellectual property rights or any other proprietorial rights of a third party;
    • if you previously had a User Account with HookMe, your old User Account was not terminated or suspended by HookMe for violation of the Terms of Service;
    • you register on HookMe for your own personal use and you will not sell, rent or transfer your User Account to any third party; and
    • HookMe reserve the right, at any time, to verify the information which you provide to HookMe as well as your compliance with the Terms. If HookMe is unable to verify this then HookMe reserve the right to suspend your account.
    • you will not use any third party payment processors to accept payments for subscriptions, or any other service, via HookMe.
  • You are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur on your account and you are responsible for keeping your login details confidential and secure. You agree not to disclose these details to any other person or entity and immediately notify HookMe at [email protected] if you believe someone has used or is using your account without your permission or if your account has been subject to any other breach of security. You also agree to ensure that you log out of your account at the end of each session. You should use particular caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to access, view or record your password or other personal information.
  • HookMe reserves the right to disable any user name, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by HookMe, at any time and at HookMe’s sole discretion for any or no reason, including if, in HookMe opinion, you have violated any provision of the Terms.
• Subscriptions, Purchases and Payment of Revenue
  • HookMe will procure that Payment Providers ensure that Creators will receive the Commission from HookMe with the difference between the Revenue and Commission being a management fee (which will include Incentive Payments) levied by HookMe and payments due to the Payment Providers. The management fee is for providing, maintaining and operating the Website. The Commission will be 80% of the Revenue generated by Fans paying to view User Content uploaded by you or use Fan Interaction.
  • In order to view User Content or utilise Fan Interaction on HookMe, you must first add a payment card to your account and then click the ‘Subscribe’ button on the relevant Creator’s profile. Your payment card details will be passed to a Payment Provider which will take payment from your payment card and pay it into HookMe’s account.
  • Depending on your use of HookMe the Payment Provider will take monthly payments or will take payments for ad hoc purchases such as Fan Interaction. However, you may cancel the monthly payments at any time by turning off the ‘Auto-Renew’ switch located under the relevant Creator’s User Content profile or by contacting HookMe at [email protected]. If you cancel your monthly payments you will continue to be permitted to view the Creator’s User Content until the end of the existing billing period, after which no further payments will be taken from your payment card and you will no longer be able to view the relevant Creator’s User Content.
  • HookMe receives the Revenue and holds the Commission on behalf of the relevant Creator, and not on your behalf as a Fan. Once HookMe has received payment from you as a Fan you have no further liability to the relevant Creator and the Creator shall allow you as a Fan to view the User Content or utilise Fan Interaction.
  • HookMe will take payment of the Revenue from the Fan and hold the Commission in HookMe’s capacity as the agent for the Creator.
  • All payments to view User Content or utilise Fan Interaction are final and non-refundable. If HookMe is alerted that a Fan has sought and received a Refund or Chargeback, HookMe will take additional actions. Any purchase of the right to view User Content or to use Fan Interaction which is subsequently subject to a Refund or Chargeback may result in the User’s account being immediately and permanently excluded from HookMe. The Refund or Chargeback amount may be removed from the earning Creator’s income. The Creator may be alerted to the Fan Refund or Chargeback.
• Wallet Credits
  • A Fan can prepay an amount to HookMe known as Wallet Credits which the Fan can later use to view User Content/access Fan Interaction on the terms contained within this agreement.
  • Wallet Credits are non-transferable; any unused Wallet Credits cannot be withdrawn.
  • Once a Fan has applied any of the Wallet Credits in accordance with 5.1 above, the Wallet Credits are non-refundable.
  • Purchases on the Website cannot be divided; if a Fan attempts a purchase that is greater than the amount of remaining Wallet Credits, the Fan’s connected payment card will be charged the full amount.
  • Wallet Credits are subject to a maximum amount as determined by HookMe, from time to time.
• Twitter
  HookMe allows Users to connect a Twitter account and to post any HookMe posts to Twitter. By using this feature, you must fully comply with and respect Twitter’s Terms of Service, which can be read in full here: https://twitter.com/tos
• Account Deactivation
  • Should you wish to deactivate your HookMe membership then you may do so in your User Account section.
  • If you are a Fan then any account deactivation will take place as soon as reasonably possible. You will no longer be charged or have access to User Content or Fan Interaction. Any subscriptions will be deleted and cannot be subsequently renewed.
  • If you are a Creator then you can only deactivate your membership when your last Fan Subscription has expired, and you have withdrawn any balance on your account.
  • If a User is both a Creator and a Fan then the account will be deactivated in two stages (Fan and then Creator).
  • You will receive an email confirmation upon the successful deletion of your account.
