Each individual may maintain only one Account. We may use Verification mechanisms (including, where applicable, World ID nullifier hashes, KYC identifiers, or device or behavioral signals) to enforce this rule. Any attempt to circumvent this rule (including by using multiple verification credentials, attempting to re-verify, or transacting through accounts controlled by another person) is prohibited and grounds for immediate termination and forfeiture of any unpaid Rewards.

You agree that any information you provide in connection with your Account (including any payment-routing information, demographic information, and Responses) will be true, accurate, and current. You will keep that information up to date.

You are responsible for safeguarding your Account, your authentication credentials, and any payment-routing destination (such as a wallet, bank account, or other payment account) you designate. You will notify us promptly of any unauthorized use or suspected compromise. We are not liable for losses arising from your failure to safeguard your credentials, devices, or payment destinations.

You may stop using the Service and request that we close your Account at any time. We may suspend or close your Account as described in Section 12.

From time to time we make Polls available through the Service. We may add, remove, modify, restrict, or expire Polls at our discretion. Some Polls may be made available only to Users who meet certain criteria (including demographic criteria, location, prior participation, or Verification level).

We may offer one or more Reward programs from time to time, in such forms as we determine, including digital assets (such as USDC), fiat payments, in-Service credits, points, sweepstakes entries, vouchers, gift cards, donations on your behalf, or other benefits. Each Reward program’s specific form, amount, eligibility criteria, completion requirements, payment timing, and other terms will be displayed in the Service or in applicable Supplemental Terms before you participate. By starting a Poll or otherwise participating in a Reward program, you accept the Reward terms displayed for that Poll or program.

A Reward becomes earned only when the Service determines, in our sole reasonable judgment, that you have completed the Poll or other Reward-qualifying activity in accordance with all applicable requirements, including (without limitation) that you (a) answered every required question or completed every required step, (b) completed the activity within any applicable time limit, (c) did not duplicate, automate, randomize, or otherwise game your participation, and (d) complied with these Terms throughout. We may use automated tools, statistical analysis, human review, or any combination of these to make this determination.

We may, in our sole reasonable judgment, reject any Response or determine that any other Reward-qualifying activity is invalid, and decline to pay the associated Reward, if we determine that the Response or activity was not provided in good faith, was generated in whole or part by an automated tool or large language model, was duplicative, was statistically anomalous in ways consistent with gaming, was provided in violation of these Terms, or was otherwise of inadequate quality. Rejected Responses and invalid activities do not earn Rewards. We will use reasonable efforts to communicate the basis of any rejection if you ask.

Notwithstanding any prior payment, if we determine that a Reward was paid in respect of an activity that should have been rejected under Section 4.4, that you violated these Terms, or that you were ineligible at the time the Reward was earned, we may (a) claw back the Reward by deducting it from any future Rewards we owe you, (b) demand repayment, and/or (c) terminate your Account. You agree to repay any Reward that was paid in error or in violation of these Terms upon our written demand.

Rewards are delivered using the method specified in the relevant Reward program (which may include digital-asset transfer, fiat payout, in-Service credit, sweepstakes entry, voucher issuance, or other delivery). You are responsible for providing accurate routing or delivery information. We are not responsible for losses caused by network congestion, payment-rail failures, your provision of incorrect routing information, or other matters outside our reasonable control. Specific delivery mechanics and risks for digital-asset Rewards are described in applicable Supplemental Terms.

You may be required to pay fees to third parties — including, without limitation, gas or transaction fees on blockchain networks, bank or payment-rail fees, exchange or currency-conversion fees, and fees imposed by other intermediaries — in order to receive, claim, hold, transfer, or convert any Reward. Such third-party fees are your responsibility, are not paid or reimbursed by us, and may reduce the net amount of any Reward you actually receive.

We do not guarantee that any minimum number of Polls, any minimum number of Rewards, or any minimum total compensation will be available to any User. Participation in the Service is voluntary, and Polls and Reward programs are offered on an as-available basis.

Your participation as a Poll respondent or other Reward-program participant is not an employment, agency, partnership, joint venture, or franchise relationship. You participate as an independent individual offering your time and Responses in exchange for Rewards on the terms specified for each Poll or program.

You are solely responsible for determining and satisfying any tax, withholding, reporting, or similar obligation that arises from your receipt of Rewards in your jurisdiction. Rewards are paid gross of any tax, except where we are required by law to withhold.

You agree to provide, on request, any tax documentation we reasonably require to comply with our obligations, including a properly completed IRS Form W-9 (for U.S. Users) or Form W-8BEN (for non-U.S. Users), and to update that documentation as your circumstances change. We may suspend payment of Rewards until you have provided required tax documentation.

If you are a U.S. taxpayer, we may issue an IRS Form 1099 (or successor form) reporting Rewards paid to you in any calendar year that meet or exceed the applicable reporting threshold. We may comply with similar information-reporting obligations in other jurisdictions where applicable.

We may withhold from Rewards any amount required by applicable law, or any amount we reasonably determine is necessary to comply with applicable tax law, sanctions law, or court order.

You hereby grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license to host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works of, aggregate, anonymize, de-identify, analyze, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, communicate, sell, license, transmit, and otherwise use your Responses, in any medium and by any means now known or later developed, for any lawful purpose, including (without limitation): operating, improving, and developing the Service and our other products; producing aggregated or anonymized insights, datasets, reports, dashboards, and benchmarks; selling, licensing, or otherwise commercializing such insights, datasets, reports, dashboards, and benchmarks to clients, partners, researchers, and the public; conducting and publishing research; and training, fine-tuning, and evaluating machine learning models.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you waive, and agree not to assert, any moral or analogous rights you may have in your Responses against us, our successors, our assigns, and our licensees.

You represent and warrant that (a) you have all rights necessary to grant the license in Section 7.1, (b) your Responses do not infringe, misappropriate, or violate any third-party right (including intellectual property, privacy, and publicity rights), and (c) your Responses do not contain any unlawful, defamatory, harassing, or fraudulent content.

Although we have a broad license over your Responses, our handling of personal information about you is also subject to our Privacy Policy. Where the Privacy Policy provides you with privacy-related rights or commits us to specific privacy practices (for example, anonymization commitments), those will apply notwithstanding the breadth of the license in Section 7.1.

You agree that Responses and any Feedback (as defined below) are not confidential. You should not include in any Response any information you consider sensitive or confidential beyond what the Poll specifically asks for.

If you send us any feedback, suggestions, or proposed improvements to the Service (“Feedback”), you assign to us all right, title, and interest in such Feedback, and we may use it without restriction or compensation.

These Terms become effective when you first access the Service and remain in effect until terminated as described here.

You may stop using the Service and request that we close your Account at any time.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service or your Account at any time, with or without notice, if we determine that you have violated these Terms, that you do not satisfy the eligibility requirements in Section 2, or that termination is necessary to protect the Service, other Users, our business, or the public.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends immediately. Validly earned but unpaid Rewards will be paid using the delivery method specified in the relevant Reward program, except that we may withhold or set off Rewards to the extent permitted under Section 4.5 or required by law. Sections 1, 4.5, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 will survive termination.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES, LOST DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR COSTS OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL REWARDS WE PAID TO YOU IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100). THIS CAP IS CUMULATIVE; THE EXISTENCE OF MORE THAN ONE CLAIM DOES NOT INCREASE THE CAP.

Nothing in this Section 15 limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (including, where applicable, liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or death or personal injury caused by negligence).

You acknowledge that the disclaimers and limitations in Sections 14 and 15 are an essential basis of the bargain between you and us, and that we would not provide the Service without them.

This Section 17 governs any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and us arising out of or relating to the Service, these Terms, or any prior version of these Terms (each, a “Dispute”), except as otherwise expressly provided.

Before initiating arbitration, you and we agree to attempt to resolve any Dispute informally. The party initiating the Dispute must send written notice (a “Notice”) describing the Dispute and the relief sought. Notice to us must be sent by email to contact@voxdotpop.com or by mail to DOTSNEWCO Inc., 5049 Edwards Ranch Rd., Ft. Worth, Texas 76109. The parties will then meet by telephone or video conference to discuss the Dispute in good faith within forty-five (45) days after the Notice is received. Completion of this informal resolution process is a condition precedent to commencing arbitration. The applicable statute of limitations and any filing-fee deadlines are tolled during this process.

Subject to Sections 17.2 and 17.4, any Dispute that is not resolved through informal discussions will be resolved exclusively by binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS under its then-current rules (the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures for amounts in controversy below $250,000 and the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures otherwise). The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement. The arbitration will be conducted in the county of your residence (or, for non-U.S. Users, in a location selected by JAMS that is reasonably convenient to you), unless the parties agree otherwise or the Batch Arbitration provisions in Section 17.6 apply.

Notwithstanding Section 17.3, (a) either party may assert an individualized claim in small claims court if the claim qualifies and remains there on a non-class basis; (b) either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court for actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights; and (c) either party may seek to compel arbitration in a court of competent jurisdiction.

YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS-ACTION BASIS. YOU AND WE WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief, and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If a court holds that this waiver is unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy (and only that claim or remedy) will be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in the state or federal courts located in Tarrant County, Texas, with the remainder of this Section 17 remaining in effect.

If 100 or more individual Notices of substantially similar nature are filed against us by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or coordinating organization within a 30-day period, the parties agree that JAMS will administer the arbitrations in batches of up to 100 Notices, with one arbitrator and one set of fees per batch, and one consolidated final award per batch. The parties will cooperate in good faith with JAMS to implement this process. This Section 17.6 does not authorize any class, collective, or mass arbitration outside of this batched-individual structure.

You may opt out of this Section 17 (other than the carve-outs in Section 17.4 and the class-waiver in Section 17.5) by sending written notice to DOTSNEWCO Inc., 5049 Edwards Ranch Rd., Ft. Worth, Texas 76109, or by email to contact@voxdotpop.com, within thirty (30) days after first becoming subject to these Terms. Your notice must include your name, account information sufficient to identify your Account, and a clear statement that you are opting out of arbitration. Opting out has no effect on any other provision of these Terms.

If we make any future material change to this Section 17, you may reject the change within 30 days of its effective date by writing to us at the address or email above. Continued use of the Service after that 30-day window is acceptance of the change.

These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy, any applicable Supplemental Terms, and any Poll-specific terms we display) are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior or contemporaneous understanding.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be a waiver of that right or provision.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights or obligations under them without our prior written consent. We may freely assign these Terms.

You and we are independent contractors. Nothing in these Terms creates any agency, partnership, joint venture, employment, or franchise relationship.

We are not liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil disturbance, governmental action, labor disputes, internet or telecommunications failures, blockchain network outages, payment-rail failures, or supply-chain disruptions.

Headings are for convenience only and have no substantive effect.

You will not export, re-export, or transfer the Service, or any technical data acquired from us, in violation of U.S. export controls or sanctions laws.
