Terms of Service
These terms apply to POP-operated websites, applications and services at pops.mobi and its subdomains. The operator is Ashley Sara Peters, an Australian sole trader, ABN 96 558 798 812, operating the project and brand The POP Network (POP). Contact: ash@pops.mobi.
Using POP
These terms govern your use of POP services. Please read them before creating an account or using a transaction or publishing feature. If you do not agree, do not use those services. Feature-specific conditions, prices and permissions shown before an action also apply to that action. Separate agreements may apply to an individually agreed collaboration or paid commission.
POP provides creative publishing tools, profiles and collections, account and wallet interfaces, blockchain records, participation features and access to creator markets where enabled. Some features are in staged development or depend on external providers. A roadmap, demonstration or invitation to discuss an integration is not a commitment that a feature is available.
Accounts and authority
Provide accurate information where required, keep your login credentials and any keys you control secure, and use only accounts, wallets and content you are authorised to access. Do not share passwords, recovery phrases or private keys in assistant chats or support messages. Report suspected unauthorised access promptly.
Where an action requires approval, review its destination, content, permissions and cost before approving. Account permissions and delegated assistant access do not authorise unrelated actions. Recovery options depend on the account or wallet feature; we cannot promise recovery of external keys or assets.
Your content and creative rights
You retain the rights you hold in content you submit. You must have permission to upload, publish, mint or license that content, including any third-party artwork, music, likenesses or other protected material it contains. Using an AI tool or exporting from another design platform does not itself establish those rights.
You give POP permission to store, process and display your content as needed to provide the features you choose, including making it public when you authorise publication. This permission does not transfer ownership of your copyright to POP. Private uploads are handled as described in the Privacy Policy.
Ownership of a token does not automatically transfer copyright, commercial-use rights or ownership of a physical item. Any such rights must be stated separately by the rights holder. Do not offer rights you do not hold. Public content and blockchain records may remain in copies, caches or chain history after an interface listing is removed.
Acceptable use
Do not use POP for fraud, unlawful transactions, impersonation, infringement, harassment, exploitation, spam or unauthorised access. Do not falsify ownership, participation evidence or device readings, manipulate rewards through deceptive activity, or interfere with other users or infrastructure. Legitimate security concerns can be reported privately to the contact above.
Assistants and generated material
AI responses and generated content may be inaccurate, incomplete or unsuitable. Check material before relying on it, publishing it or approving an action. Assistant output is not professional legal, financial or medical advice. A suggested action or queued request is not a completed transaction; use the relevant confirmed result or transaction record to check its status.
Transactions, fees and markets
Review the asset, network, recipient, amount, fees and any market or loan terms before confirming. A simulation is not a purchase. Confirmed blockchain transactions may be irreversible, and an interface cancellation cannot necessarily undo an onchain action. Contact us if a transaction fails or a service does not match what was offered.
Prices, liquidity and availability can change. A token listing, displayed valuation or participation reward is not a promise of a buyer, profit or external redemption. POPchain's native USDP is distinct from Paxos USDP. An external exchange or payout is available only where the relevant funded route and provider support are actually offered. No dollar redemption guarantee is created by these terms.
Creator-market, lending and escrow features have transaction-specific conditions. Understand collateral, repayment, settlement and release conditions before participating. POP does not promise that an external platform supports a native POPchain asset merely because a wallet can connect to POP.
Contributions and rewards
A content call or contribution programme should state its eligibility, tasks, dates, review criteria and any reward before participation. A submission is not automatically accepted or payable. Publishing a call, recording an attestation or displaying an illustrative yield does not by itself establish an entitlement to payment. Actual entitlements depend on the applicable published terms and verified eligibility. Any paid commission should have an agreed scope and payment terms.
Research participation requires a separate information and consent process; ordinary creative participation does not automatically enrol you in a study.
External services
Linked payment providers, messaging services, video hosts, design tools and external wallets operate under their own terms and privacy policies. Availability, verification requirements, quotes and fees depend on the provider and jurisdiction. Review those terms when choosing to use a provider. Listing a proposed integration does not imply a partnership or approval.
Availability, restrictions and ending use
Software faults, maintenance, provider outages and network problems may interrupt services. Keep independent copies of important creative files. We may restrict access where reasonably necessary to address unlawful activity, a material breach of these terms or a security risk. Where practicable and lawful, we will explain the reason and provide a way to contact us for review. Emergency security action may need to happen first.
You may stop using POP and request account closure at any time. Closure does not erase public blockchain records or automatically cancel outstanding transaction obligations. We will explain available access or export options and any records that must remain. Planned material service changes will be communicated where reasonably practicable.
Consumer rights and resolving problems
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded, including applicable Australian Consumer Law guarantees. Technical limitations or blockchain finality do not remove those rights. If a paid service is faulty, not supplied or materially different from what was agreed, contact us so we can assess the appropriate remedy, including a refund where required.
For complaints, email ash@pops.mobi with the relevant account, transaction or order reference and the outcome you seek. Do not include private keys or passwords. We aim to respond within 30 days and will explain if further investigation is needed. You remain free to seek assistance from the relevant consumer authority or a court.
Privacy, changes and applicable law
Our Privacy Policy explains information handling and privacy requests. These terms are governed by Queensland and Australian law, without excluding mandatory protections that apply to you elsewhere.
Updates will be published here with a new date. Material changes affecting ongoing use will be notified through the relevant service or account communication, with reasonable advance notice where practicable. Changes will not retrospectively remove accrued rights or alter an already agreed purchase or commission without an applicable lawful basis or agreement. Where renewed consent is required, we will request it.
