Lavish Made — Terms & Conditions
Effective Date: June 7, 2025
Last Updated: September 30, 2025
Lavish Made is a creative platform—not a storefront, not an ad machine. These terms help clarify what's allowed, what's not, and how the site works.
1. Account Rules
- You must be 13 or older to use the platform.
- You're responsible for your account activity and keeping your login secure.
2. Content & Usage
You can:
- Post text, links, photos, audio files, video files, and Deep Dives.
- Embed videos and music from sites like YouTube, Vimeo, or Spotify.
- Upload video files directly for processing and streaming.
- Use optional voice transcription services for audio content.
- Support other members with tips and monthly subscriptions.
- Customize your profile and connect with others.
You own your content. By posting, you grant Lavish Made permission to display it on the platform.
Voice Transcription: Audio transcription is completely optional and only occurs when you explicitly request it. Audio files are processed by our third-party service and deleted immediately after transcription.
3. Don't Abuse the Space
- No hate speech, harassment, or illegal activity.
- No impersonation or automated scraping.
- No content you don't have the right to share.
Email confirmation helps us keep bots and spam off the platform.
4. Payments, Subscriptions & Support
Lavish Made lets individual creators (publishers) accept payments through Stripe for blogs, zines, and other digital works.
Member Support: You can support other members with one-time tips or monthly subscriptions. All payment processing is handled securely through Stripe—we do not store payment information on our servers.
Lavish Made does not process or control refunds. Refunds are solely at the discretion of the publisher you purchased from or the member you supported. We just provide the tools—they handle the transactions.
5. Uploaded Content
- You can upload your own photos and videos (hosted on Amazon S3 and processed through Mux).
- You must own the rights to anything you post.
- Video uploads are processed and optimized for streaming through our video service.
6. Embeds
You may paste links from services like Spotify, YouTube, or Vimeo. If you do, make sure you're not violating anyone else's rights.
7. Liability
We provide the platform "as is." We're not liable for user content, outages, or third-party service issues. Use Lavish Made at your own discretion.
8. Reporting & Moderation
You can report posts or users. We reserve the right to remove content or suspend accounts that violate these terms.
9. Updates
We may revise these terms occasionally. If we do, we'll post the latest version here.
