Third Party Data, Links, Products and Services
Your access to, and the ability to use, our Services may be subject to certain third party terms and conditions and privacy policies, including but not limited to application stores, mobile software platforms, and payment providers. Any dealings you have with third parties found while using our Services are between you and the third party. You further acknowledge and agree that Kingfluencers will not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any content, events, goods or services available on or through any such site or resource.

Kingfluencers gathers and aggregates data from third party sources, including but not limited to, Facebook, Instagram, other available APIs, and directly from influencers. The platform may contain calculations and estimations based on data from these third parties. For such data acquired from 3rd parties, Kingfluencers tries to validate them as well as possible but you understand that they might contain invalid or incorrect data, for which Kingfluencers is not responsible.

Kingfluencers may at our discretion make available links through advertisements or otherwise enabling you to access third-party sites, apps, games or services.

Campaign Preparation
It is necessary to define all campaign details with an appropriate lead-time before a campaign starts. If the lead-time time is too short and/or the set of client requirements changes during or after the preparation phase, Kingfluencers will not will not be held responsible for potential delays or increased costs. Once we have received your order confirmation Kingfluencers will start work on the campaign, at which point, you will begin to incur costs.

Influencers Participation and Campaign Content
Kingfluencers will only contact or request influencers once the campaign details and budget are finalized. This initial contact does not guarantee the participation of any given influencer. Even though an influencer may provisionally agree to participate in a campaign, their involvement can only be secured once the influencer has signed the campaign briefing. In case of cancellations, additional influencers will be requested until the selection is finalized.

Once a campaign begins, Kingfluencers does its best to make sure all content is generated according to the campaign briefing. Influencers with access to the Branded Content Tool are required to use this for paid posts, which will be labeled “paid partnership with (name of the brand)”. Influencers not using the branded content tool are required to add #ad or #sponsored to every post, in order to provide transparency to the community.

It is common for posts not to be bound to exact dates and times. Unless you clearly communicate such requirements during the initial planning, we cannot guarantee the timing of posts. Otherwise, influencers are free to choose the best timing that aligns with the campaign’s timeframe. Kingfluencers will remind influencers and other stakeholders about upcoming campaign milestones in a timely manner, but will not be held responsible for delays.

Kingfluencers is not responsible for the quality or legality of the content, including verbal and non-verbal communication of any form, that is generated by influencers in the campaign. Influencers who do not publish the agreed-upon content will receive either no payment or partial payment, commensurate with their involvement in the campaign. If deemed necessary, Kingfluencers will help you find an adequate substitute. Otherwise, Kingfluencers will refund you the net cost savings of the canceled post(s).

Kingfluencers cannot guarantee exclusivity of any kind for the channels of the influencers in your campaigns. You understand that the content generated by Influencers can only be reused for media or communication purposes (including marketing, PR and advertisement), after acquiring explicit consent from the influencer and Kingfluencers.

Payments
Once you and Kingfluencers have agreed (written or verbally) on the budget of a campaign, this contract is binding. After campaign confirmation, or latest 2 weeks before the start of the campaign, 50% of the payment is due. The remaining payments will be due in monthly installments until the campaign is finished and all campaign-related expenses are fully invoiced. If the campaign finishes before the full amount has been paid, the remaining payable amount will become due immediately. If the client unilaterally withdraws from the campaign, a cancellation fee will immediately become due. This fee will consist of 50% of the remaining services and obligations, plus the outstanding costs of services and obligations already provided.

Default of payment
If the customer has neither paid the invoice in full by the due date nor raised written and justified objections to it, he/she will be in default without further ado and Kingfluencers can, to the extent permitted by law, interrupt the provision of all services, take further measures to prevent growing damage and/or terminate the contract without notice or compensation. The customer shall bear all costs incurred by Kingfluencers as a result of the delay in payment. In particular, the customer owes Kingfluencers a default interest rate of 5% as well as a reminder fee of CHF 50 per reminder. Kingfluencers may at any time engage third parties for collection. The customer must pay the minimum fees directly to the third party and must also compensate the third party for its individual efforts and expenses that are necessary for the collection.

Copyright of Produced Content
The re-use of influencer content is limited to reposting with the necessary tags as defined by the respective influencer. All uses beyond this require an additional price negotiation with Kingfluencers. The prices are determined by the influencers and therefore vary depending on the influencer.

Disclaimer of Warranties
Our services are provided on an “as is” basis. Kingfluencers makes no warranties, expressed or implied, and hereby disclaims and negates all other warranties, including, without limitation, implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of intellectual property or other violation of rights. Further, Kingfluencers does not warrant or make any representations concerning the security, accuracy, likely results, or reliability of the use of our services not expressly stated in these terms. To the extent that Kingfluencers may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any such warranty, the scope and duration of such warranty will be the minimum required by applicable law.

Limitations of Liability
In no event shall Kingfluencers or its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, and agents be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential damages, including loss of profits (both direct and indirect), whether or not Kingfluencers has been advised of the possibility of such damages, and whether any claim for recovery is based on theories of contract, warranty, tort (including negligence and strict liability) or otherwise, resulting from: (i) the use or the inability to use the services; (ii) the cost of procurement of substitute goods and services resulting from any goods, data, information or services purchased or obtained or messages received or transactions entered into through or from the services; (iii) unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data; (iv) statements or conduct of any third party on the services; or (v) any other matter relating to the services. In no event shall Kingfluencers’ aggregate liability to you in connection with this agreement exceed the price paid by you for our services. For clarity, this represents an aggregate limitation of liability for all liability events (taken together) and not a per liability event limitation of liability. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the limitations set forth above may not apply to you. If you are dissatisfied with any portion of the services or with these terms, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue use of the service. Kingfluencers does not represent or guarantee that the services will be free from loss, corruption, attack, viruses, interference, hacking, or other security intrusion, and you hereby release Kingfluencers from any liability relating thereto.

Severability
If any provision of the Terms is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified by the court and interpreted so as best to accomplish the original provision to the fullest extent permitted by the law. This will not invalidate any other part of the Terms. Kingfluencers’ failure to enforce at any time any provision of the Terms does not constitute a waiver of that provision or of any other provision of the Terms.

Governing Law
Any claim relating to our Services shall be governed by Swiss law. You and Kingfluencers agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Zurich, Switzerland, to resolve any legal matter arising from the Terms.

Privacy Policy
Kingfluencers respects your privacy rights and recognizes the importance of protecting any information collected about you. Please read our Privacy Policy, the terms of which are incorporated herein, for more information about how we collect and use personal and non-personal data in relation to our Services.
