Rembrand Platform Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: January 31, 2023

Welcome to the Rembrand Site and Platform!

Please read these Platform Terms and Conditions (the “Platform Terms“) carefully because they govern your use of our website located at rembrand.com (the “Site”), as well as the Rembrand platform (the “Platform”) and of the programmatic product placement services offered by Rembrand, Inc. (“Rembrand”, “we”, “us”) via the Platform. The Platform is an end-to-end solution for content creators and influencers (collectively, “Creators”) and brands, trademark owners and consumer product businesses (collectively, “Brand Owners”) and in each case, their representative agencies (Brand Owners, together with such agencies, “Brands”). When not otherwise specified, “you” and “your” refer to either Creators and Brands, as applicable. To make these Platform Terms easier to read, the Site, the Platform and all related services provided by Rembrand are collectively referred to as the “Service.” Please review our Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”), which also governs your use of the Service, for information on how we collect, use and share personal information.

If you access the Platform and use the Service as a Brand, such use and your interactions with Rembrand and other Platform Users (as defined below) will be also be governed by Brand Terms between you and us (“Brand Terms”) and the Brand Terms form a part of, and supplement, these Platform Terms. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between the Platform Terms and Brand Terms with respect to the Brand’s use of the Platform, the Platform Terms control and govern. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between the Platform Terms and Brand Terms with respect to product placement, the Brand Terms control and govern.

If you access the Platform and use the Service as a Creator, such use and your interactions with Rembrand and other Platform Users will be governed by the Creator Terms between you and us (“Creator Terms”), and the Creator Terms form a part of, and supplement, these Platform Terms. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between the Platform Terms and the Creator Terms, the Platform Terms control and govern.

  • Overview. The Platform facilitates engagements and collaborations between Brands and Creators for videos, content and media that require programmatic product placement (any such engagement or collaboration, an “Opportunity”).
  • Brand Content. Specifically, Brands can post, upload, publish, submit or transmit content and media relating to their products and services via the Platform, such as a 2D picture of a product or a logo (“Brand Content Input”), and the Platform will generate and return digital derivatives, enhancements and modifications of the Brand Content Input, such as making it appear 3D and photo realistic, spin or jump (such combined and compiled content and media, in its entirety, the “Brand Content Output”, and together with the Brand Content Input, the “Brand Content”). See Section 14 for additional details on how we consider and define Brand Content Output.
  • Creator Content.  The Platform permits Creators to post, upload, publish or submit their videos, content and media via the Platform (“Creator Content”).
  • Generated Videos.  In connection with an Opportunity, the Platform (or the Creator or Brand, as permitted by the Platform) will then incorporate the Brand Content Output into the Creator Content (the “Generated Videos”). To make these Platform Terms easier to read, “Content” means for Brands, Brand Content and for Creators, Creator Content.
