Terms of Service
Last updated: May 15, 2026
1. Agreement
By accessing or using UpsideShare ("the platform"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the platform. "We", "us", and "our" refer to UpsideShare. "You" refers to the user.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into agreements. If you are using the platform on behalf of a company, you represent that you have authority to bind that company to these terms.
3. Account
You create an account via Google OAuth. You are responsible for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at hello@upsideshare.com if you suspect unauthorized access. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.
4. Platform description
UpsideShare connects brands and creators through revenue share and equity deals. The platform tracks revenue attribution via Stripe webhooks, generates equity contract templates, and provides a payout ledger. UpsideShare is a marketplace and tracking tool. We do not process payments, issue equity, or provide legal or financial advice.
5. Fees
UpsideShare charges a platform fee of 5% on tracked revenue flowing through deals. This fee is calculated automatically and deducted from the revenue share amount shown in the ledger. There are no signup fees or monthly subscription fees. We reserve the right to change the fee with 30 days written notice.
6. Stripe integration
By connecting your Stripe account, you authorize UpsideShare to access read-only transaction data for revenue attribution. We cannot make charges, issue refunds, or modify your Stripe account. Your use of Stripe is subject to Stripe's own terms of service.
7. Deals and applications
Brands are responsible for the accuracy of deal terms they post (revenue share percentage, equity terms, creator spots). Creators are responsible for promoting deals in compliance with applicable laws, including FTC disclosure requirements for sponsored content. UpsideShare does not guarantee that any deal will generate revenue.
8. Equity contracts
UpsideShare provides template equity contracts for convenience. These templates are not legal advice. Both parties should consult their own legal counsel before signing. Actual share issuance is handled outside UpsideShare via the brand's cap table provider. UpsideShare is not a party to any equity agreement and bears no liability for equity disputes.
9. Payouts
UpsideShare tracks revenue and calculates commissions but does not process payouts directly. Brands are responsible for paying creators according to deal terms. The ledger provides a two-step confirmation (brand marks paid, creator confirms receipt). Disputes between brands and creators are between those parties. UpsideShare may assist in mediation but is not obligated to.
10. Prohibited conduct
You may not: use the platform for illegal purposes, submit false information, manipulate revenue attribution (self-purchases, click fraud, fake traffic), attempt to circumvent the platform fee, scrape or data-mine the platform, interfere with platform operations, or impersonate another user or brand.
11. Intellectual property
UpsideShare owns all rights to the platform, including code, design, and branding. You retain ownership of content you submit (brand logos, deal descriptions, profile information). By submitting content, you grant us a non-exclusive license to display it on the platform.
12. Disclaimer
The platform is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee uptime, accuracy of revenue tracking, or the outcome of any deal. Revenue figures are sourced from Stripe and may be subject to Stripe's own data processing delays.
13. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, UpsideShare's total liability for any claims arising from your use of the platform is limited to the platform fees you paid in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages.
14. Termination
Either party may terminate at any time. You can request account deletion by emailing hello@upsideshare.com. We may terminate your account for violation of these terms with written notice. Upon termination, your data will be handled according to our Privacy Policy.
15. Changes
We may update these terms. We will notify registered users via email of material changes at least 30 days before they take effect. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
16. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Disputes will be resolved through good-faith negotiation first, then binding arbitration if needed.
