• Maintain the confidentiality of your account information.

Code of Conduct
To maintain a positive and inclusive environment, all members must adhere to the following code of conduct:
• No harassing, abusive, or rude language.
• No solicitation or pitching of services within Creator Method.
• Respect the privacy and intellectual property rights of all members.
• Encourage and support fellow members in a constructive manner.
Violation of the code of conduct may result in suspension or termination of membership without refund.
Content and Intellectual Property Rights
• Creator Method provides access to proprietary video lessons, live calls, and other educational content. These materials are the property of Creator Method and are protected by copyright and intellectual property laws.
• Members agree not to copy, distribute, or disclose any content outside of Creator Method.
• New content added to Creator Method remains the property of Creator Method and is subject to the same terms of use.
• Unauthorized sharing or distribution of Creator Method materials may result in legal action, suspension, and termination of membership without refund.
Live Calls and Community Interaction
• Members will have access to weekly live group video calls for Q&A sessions. These are governed by the same code of conduct as the rest of Creator Method.
• The member-only WhatsApp chat group is provided for support and collaboration among members. All interactions within this group must adhere to Creator Method’s code of conduct.
Prohibition on Artificial Engagement Groups
• Members are not allowed to form or participate in chat groups with the purpose of posting their content, such as Reels, to encourage other members to engage with it solely to boost reach or visibility on platforms like Instagram. Such activities may violate Instagram’s Community Guidelines and Terms of Use, and engaging in them could lead to penalties for both your Instagram account and your Creator Method membership.
• We encourage genuine interactions and organic engagement within the community. You may choose to follow and engage with other members’ content if it resonates with you authentically, but we do not support or condone engagement-for-engagement’s-sake strategies.
Recommendation for Authentic Engagement
• While we discourage organized efforts to manipulate engagement metrics, we do recommend that you engage with content from fellow members if it genuinely interests you and adds value to your learning or creative journey. Authentic connections and real interactions are the cornerstone of a successful creator community.
Use of Likeness and Content Release
• Participation and Content Sharing: At Creator Method, we love capturing the special moments we share as a community, whether during live events, webinars, or other activities. By being a part of these events, you’re allowing us to include you in photos, videos, and audio recordings that reflect the energy and spirit of our group.
• Ongoing Commitment: When we use content featuring you, it’s always with the goal of showcasing the positive experiences within our community. We might share these moments across various platforms to highlight what makes Creator Method special. This includes private sections of our community, such as the member section of the Creator Method website, the members-only WhatsApp chat, and Instagram chat. Additionally, Creator Method reserves the right to feature your likeness on publicly available websites and social media platforms.
• Providing Visibility: We will make our best efforts to tag individual members in the content where appropriate, in order to provide you with visibility both to our public audiences and within the Creator Method community.
• Your Contribution to Our Story: By participating in Creator Method activities, you grant us the right to use your likeness (such as your image or voice) in our content. This includes the ability to edit or combine content as needed, ensuring it continues to reflect the dynamic nature of our community.
Automatic Renewal
• Your Creator Method membership is subject to automatic renewal. To ensure uninterrupted access, your annual membership will automatically renew on the expiration date of your current term. The renewal charge will be the same as your initial membership fee unless otherwise notified in advance. The renewal fee will be charged to your original payment method on file.
• To manage your membership renewal preferences, please visit your account settings on creatormethod.com (http://creatormethod.com/). You have the full autonomy to cancel the automatic renewal of your membership at any time before the renewal date. To cancel, navigate to the “Settings” section in your account settings and follow the instructions provided to discontinue your membership renewal.
Both membership options—either the upfront payment option or the monthly installment option—are for a one-year (12-month) membership committment.
Members may cancel their subscription at any time; however, if you choose to cancel, you will still be charged for the full year. For those selecting the monthly installment option, you will continue to be billed monthly for the remainder of the 12 months.
Creator Method reserves the right to suspend or terminate your membership at any time, without notice, for conduct that violates these Terms, Conditions, and Community Guidelines or other policies set out by Creator Method.
Membership fees are non-refundable.
Canceling your membership will not prevent future charges and does not entitle you to a refund of any membership fees already paid, including any partially used periods within the current billing cycle. We encourage you to carefully consider your decision to enroll or cancel, taking full advantage of your membership benefits until the end of your current subscription term.
By choosing the $299 per month payment option, you are committing to a one-year membership with Creator Method. Your membership fee will be billed monthly at $299, totaling $3,588 over the initial 12-month period. Please note that this is a one-year contract, and the full year’s membership fee is due regardless of early termination or non-use of the services during the initial term.
After completing the one-year term, your membership will automatically renew according to the original payment form. IE annually paid up front or annually in monthly installments. Should you not wish to renew please cancel your membership prior to the annual renewal date.
