Terms of Service

Note on status: These Terms are in effect as of the date above and reflect how Laumika actually operates today. We are finalizing our policies with legal counsel and may refine this page; the current version is accurate and binding.

1. What Laumika is

Laumika is a creator directory. Creators build profiles showing their work, their audience and how to reach them. Brands search the directory, unlock creators’ business contact details, and post opportunities. Creators can also post collaborations to work with each other. Agencies can manage a creator’s profile when that creator invites them to. A creator can end an agency’s access at any time.

By using Laumika, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, don’t use it.

2. Who can use it

You must be 18 or over. By using Laumika you confirm that you are, and that what you tell us is accurate.

3. Accounts and profiles

3.1 Account types

Laumika has creator, brand and agency accounts. You’re responsible for keeping your sign-in details to yourself and for what happens under your account.

3.2 Profiles we create

We build creator profiles from information that’s already public — from sources such as the creator’s own social accounts, their website or link page, and press coverage — their name, handle, a short bio, and their public social links with follower counts. We also write a short headline and choose the categories they work in, based on their public content; the creator can change or remove both after claiming. Each of these profiles is labelled as created from public information.

We don’t record contact details for profiles we create.

If we’ve made a profile for you:

• You can claim it by messaging @laumikadotcom from the Instagram or TikTok account listed on the profile. We’ll send you a one-time claim link, and you confirm an email address on the claim page. It’s then yours to edit, publish or unpublish. If a profile is claimed by someone who isn’t the creator, we can remove their ownership.
• You can have it removed. If you haven’t claimed it, use the “Request removal” link at the bottom of the profile — no account needed — or write to contact@laumika.com. The profile normally comes down immediately and is permanently deleted after our team reviews it. If you have claimed it, delete it from Settings instead.
• You can leave it. It shows information that’s already public plus the headline and categories we wrote for it, and nobody can obtain contact details through it.

3.3 Other people named on a profile

A profile may name people who don’t use Laumika — a manager, an agent, someone who gave a testimonial, a contact at a brand. If that’s you and you don’t own the profile, write to contact@laumika.com and we’ll correct or remove it. The Privacy Policy explains how we handle information about people who aren’t users.

4. Content and ownership

4.1 Information from public sources

Profile information we’ve drawn from public sources is hosted on the basis that it’s already public. Creators keep whatever rights they hold in it, and can claim, edit or remove it as described in 3.2.

4.2 Content you add

When you claim a profile or add anything to Laumika — a bio, portfolio images, video links, testimonials, an opportunity, a collaboration post — you keep ownership of it. You give us permission to host, display and distribute it on Laumika so that the directory works.

That permission ends when you delete the content or your profile, with four exceptions we can’t avoid and would rather name:

• A link preview already copied by Slack, an inbox or a search engine stays on that service’s systems.
• Anything already downloaded, screenshotted or copied by someone who saw it stays with them.
• For up to an hour after you delete an image, copies already held in caches can still be served while they age out.
• For up to two hours after you delete an image, an upload link already issued for it can still place a copy back.

4.3 You’re responsible for what you add

You confirm that you have the right to everything you put on Laumika — including any other person’s name or information — and that it doesn’t infringe anyone’s rights or break these Terms.

5. What’s not allowed

Laumika is a professional, safe-for-work platform. These are prohibited anywhere on it:

• Sexual or adult content of any kind — profiles, portfolios, collaboration posts, opportunities, or anywhere else.
• Fake, impersonating or misleading profiles. Don’t pretend to be someone else, and don’t misrepresent your identity, your audience or who you work with.
• Harassment, abuse, hate speech or threats toward anyone.
• Scraping, harvesting or bulk-extracting our data or anyone’s data by automated means, without our written permission. (This governs your use of the platform. Our own creation of profiles from public sources, described in 3.2, is a separate activity covered by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.)
• Getting around our security or access controls, including the contact gating.
• Anything illegal, or using Laumika to help with something illegal.

We may remove content, suspend or close accounts that break these standards.

Reporting. Every creator profile carries a “Report this profile” link, and every collaboration post carries “Report this post.” Reporting requires an account. You can also write to contact@laumika.com about anything on the platform — including an opportunity, which doesn’t yet have a report link of its own.

6. Contact details and opportunities

Creators’ business contact details are gated. They never appear on a public profile. Apart from the creator and any manager they’ve invited, a signed-in user can unlock a creator’s contact only through Laumika’s reveal flow, and only once the creator has added and confirmed a contact. We record each reveal.

Contact details obtained through Laumika are for legitimate business outreach only. You may not resell them, pass them on, or use them for spam or anything unlawful.

The collab board is where creators post collaborations with each other. Brands are welcome to browse it and unlock a creator’s contact from their profile. If you’re a business looking to recruit creators, please post an opportunity instead of a collab, and we may remove collab posts that are recruitment.

7. Fees

Laumika is in early access and doesn’t charge for anything yet. We may introduce paid features later. If we do, we’ll give notice and update these Terms and our Privacy Policy before anyone is charged.

8. Services we rely on

Laumika runs on services provided by other companies — hosting, database and authentication, email delivery, error tracking, and bot protection on our removal-request form and, after repeated code requests, on our sign-in forms. Your use of Laumika is also subject to those companies’ terms where they apply. The Privacy Policy lists them and says what each receives. We don’t use analytics or advertising services.

9. Deleting your account

Creators can delete their profile in Settings. It comes off Laumika immediately, you have 30 days to change your mind, and after that it’s permanently deleted. Your sign-in survives unless you ask us to close it. The Privacy Policy explains what happens in detail, including what we keep and what we can’t take back.

Brands and agencies can close their account in Settings. Closing takes your open opportunities off the board, deactivates the company or agency record and signs you out; an agency’s management links end at the same time. You can restore the account yourself for 30 days, after which the company or agency record is deleted. Closing doesn’t delete your sign-in or the opportunities you posted. To have the account removed entirely, write to contact@laumika.com. The Privacy Policy explains what we keep.

Anyone whose profile we created, and who hasn’t claimed it, can have it removed without an account, using the link on the profile.

We may suspend or close your access if you break these Terms, or for any lawful reason.

10. No guarantees

Laumika is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

We don’t guarantee that any profile, contact detail, opportunity or other content on the platform is accurate, complete or reliable — including profiles we built from public sources. Follower figures and audience data come from creators or from public sources and we don’t independently audit them.

11. Limits on our liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, AF Limited, LLC and its officers, members and agents are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data or goodwill, arising from your use of Laumika.

12. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us and our officers, members, employees, independent contractors, attorneys, and agents, from and against all claims, actions, loss, liabilities, expenses, costs, or demands, including without limitation legal and accounting fees, for all damages directly, indirectly, or consequentially resulting or allegedly resulting from your actions, or the actions of another person under your authority, including your use, misuse, or inability to use Laumika, or any breach of these Terms by you or another person under your authority.

We will promptly notify you by electronic mail of any such claim or suit, and we may cooperate in the defense of it, each of us bearing our own costs of that cooperation. We reserve the right to participate in the defense of any such claim or suit at our own expense and with legal counsel of our own choosing, and to assume control of that defense if we consider it necessary; we are not obligated to do so.

This section applies only to people who have accepted these Terms. It does not apply to anyone whose profile Laumika created and who has not claimed it — see Section 13.

13. Profiles we create

Laumika creates creator profiles from information that’s already public, as described in Section 3.2 and in our Privacy Policy. A creator whose profile we created has not registered with Laumika, has not accepted these Terms, and has not authorized us to create it.

A profile we created is not your acceptance of anything. We create these profiles without asking, and their existence places no obligation on you. In particular, the indemnification in Section 12 applies only to people who have accepted these Terms by creating an account or claiming a profile. It does not apply to you because we made a profile about you, and it does not apply to you for asking us to remove it.

No affiliation or endorsement. A profile we created does not indicate that the creator uses Laumika, endorses Laumika, or has any relationship with us. We display information that’s already public about the creator, plus a short headline and categories we write based on it, and we label the profile as created from public information.

Removal, without an account. Anyone whose profile we created, and who hasn’t claimed it, can have it removed using the link at the bottom of that profile. No account is needed, these Terms need not be accepted, and no explanation is required. The profile normally comes down immediately and is permanently deleted after our team reviews it. Removal can also be requested at contact@laumika.com.

Claiming. A creator who claims their profile creates an account and accepts these Terms at that point, and these Terms apply from then on.

14. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We’ll post the new version with a new effective date and give reasonable notice of material changes. Continuing to use Laumika after a change means you accept it.

15. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida.
