Terms of Service and Professional User Agreement

Effective Date: April 16, 2026

Welcome to PriceYourContent.com. By accessing or using our suite of financial calculators, narrative masterclasses, and digital business tools, you are entering into a binding legal agreement with PriceYourContent and its parent entity, Dark Minute Media. This Terms of Service (TOS) document governs your access to our infrastructure and outlines the rigorous standards of conduct required to maintain the integrity of our platform. If you do not agree to these terms, you must cease use of our tools immediately. Your continued use of the site constitutes an irrevocable acceptance of these terms and any future modifications we may implement to maintain our compliance with global digital standards.

1. Scope of Service and Educational Intent

PriceYourContent provides specialized, interactive calculators designed to assist independent creators, developers, and media brands in modeling various financial scenarios. It is critical for the user to understand that these tools are provided for educational, illustrative, and estimation purposes only. The creator economy is a highly volatile environment governed by shifting platform algorithms, market saturation, and individual execution. While we have engineered our formulas to reflect industry-standard metrics—such as 15.3% self-employment tax baselines and programmatic RPM averages—we do not guarantee that the results generated by our tools will reflect your actual business outcomes. The data provided by our tools should be used as a "starting point" for your own professional due diligence, not as the final word on your financial strategy.

2. Strict "No Financial or Legal Advice" Disclaimer

Information provided on PriceYourContent.com, including the outputs of our calculators and the deep-dive narrative masterclasses, does not constitute certified financial, tax, or legal advice. The team at PriceYourContent consists of creators and engineers, not licensed CPAs, fiduciaries, or attorneys. Business decisions involving taxation, international commerce, and contract pricing carry inherent legal and financial risks. We strongly advocate for the "Winning Habit" of consulting with a qualified professional before making significant changes to your business structure, tax filings, or pricing models. You acknowledge and agree that PriceYourContent is not a substitute for professional consultation and that your reliance on any information found on this site is at your own risk.

3. Proprietary Intellectual Property and Usage Rights

The total architecture of PriceYourContent—including but not limited to our 1200-word masterclass articles, our custom Vanilla JavaScript calculator logic, our brand name, our CSS design systems, and our visual assets—is the exclusive intellectual property of Dark Minute Media. We grant you a limited, non-transferable, and non-exclusive license to access our tools for your personal business planning. You are strictly prohibited from: (a) Scraping or harvesting our content for use in AI training or other platforms; (b) Republishing our 1200-word deep-dives on competing websites; (c) Attempting to reverse-engineer our proprietary JavaScript logic for commercial gain; or (d) Using our tools in any way that violates local or international law. We fiercely defend our intellectual property to ensure that PriceYourContent remains a high-authority, original resource for the community.

4. Limitation of Liability and Indemnification

In no event shall PriceYourContent, Dark Minute Media, or its directors be liable for any financial loss, business interruption, or "missed opportunities" resulting from the use or inability to use our tools. By using our site, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless PriceYourContent and its affiliates from any claims, damages, or expenses (including legal fees) arising from your use of the site or your violation of these terms. We provide our services on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis, without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied. Our goal is to provide 100% uptime and mathematical precision, but we are not responsible for technical glitches or external network failures that may affect your experience.

5. Jurisdiction and Dispute Resolution

This agreement is governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Dark Minute Media is registered. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of the site shall be resolved through binding arbitration, rather than in a court of law. This clause is intended to protect the lean operational nature of our platform and yours. We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Effective Date," and it is your responsibility to review these terms periodically to ensure continued compliance.

By engaging with PriceYourContent.com, you are joining a movement of professional, data-driven creators who value precision and accountability. We are proud to provide the infrastructure for your digital empire, and we thank you for respecting the legal framework that makes this platform possible.
