Terms of Service
Last Updated: July 15, 2024
Simple Speak Introduction for Terms of Service
You're busy. We get it. So we've summed up our Terms of Service in a few simple sentences. They don’t replace the official legal stuff, but they will give you an idea of what’s in there. Any questions or concerns – please contact us.
Headlines
- You have to be 16 years or older to use our tools.
- Your content is yours – you own it, and you are responsible for it. We’ll only do what’s needed for our services to work properly...
- ...unless you are doing something illegal, in which case we can block and/or delete your stuff, and suspend your accounts.
- We may make changes to our terms, service, and/or fees from time to time. If you have an account and don’t like something we change, you can always cancel at any time.
- And we should mention that you use our service at your own risk; we are not liable for any damages if things go wrong.
And that’s it. Seems fair right? You do you, we’ll do us and everything will be fine.

File Sharing
File Sharing allows you to share your Content with others.
To share your Content, you need to upload it and provide us with (a limited number of) email addresses of recipient(s) (“email transfer”) or choose to distribute a download link yourself (“link transfer”). If you use link transfer, you will not be informed of any downloads by others. World of Creator reserves the right to limit downloads and/or attempted downloads by users for all File Sharing activity. You warrant that you will not use email transfers to send spam or otherwise unsolicited, unlawful, or unwanted Content to the recipients whose email addresses you provide to us.
File Sharing provides the possibility to upload and share Content up to a maximum total capacity. Uploaded Content is stored on World of Creator’s servers for a limited period of time after which the ability to download expires. Depending on the transfer type and your subscription, limitations apply.
After the expiry period, World of Creator will permanently delete the uploaded files. These files will not be available nor retrievable anymore.
The basic functionality of File Sharing is (currently) free from registration and charge.
World of Creator treats Content as confidential and does not control the use of download links, regardless of whether they are originally distributed by us or by you. Recipients can forward the links and allow others to use them. You are solely responsible for the Content you upload and share.
There are a number of paid subscription packages which - compared to the free version - offer you a set of additional services and different subscription terms.
World of Creator Premium offers you (amongst others) unlimited File Sharing storage. You will have 1 Terabytes of capacity at your disposal. Should you require more, then you can file a request at support@drop.space.
World of Creator reserves the right to permanently delete Content from your account when you stop interacting with World of Creator for a period of at least 12 consecutive months, when you delete your Content from your account, when you cancel your World of Creator subscription, or when you delete your account. Full payment of applicable fees is considered to be active use of your account.
Online Magazine
The Online Magazine presents creative stories and showcases art, photography, music, and more from around the world. Any content included in the Online Magazine is owned by or licensed to World of Creator and can only be used with express prior written permission from World of Creator.
World of Creator offers the Online Magazine as a free service. Although care and attention are devoted to the content of our (online) magazine, World of Creator cannot warrant that it is always complete and accurate. World of Creator disclaims any liability in relation to the use of such content.
Collect
Collect allows you to store, organize, share, and receive Content from multiple sources using the Collect Services.
The basic functionality of Collect is (currently) free from registration and charge. The Content you use, share, or receive in the Collect application will be stored on your device and/or on our servers. We are not responsible for any Content stored on your device. Your Content may be lost if you remove your Content from the Collect application, if you remove the Collect application from your device, or if you lose your device.
For additional functionality, you have to create an account and provide us with your email address and/or other details.
World of Creator also offers Collect Pro, which is a paid subscription service that offers a set of enhanced services.
World of Creator reserves the right to permanently delete Content when you stop interacting with Collect, when you delete your Content from the Collect Services, when you delete the Collect Services from your device(s), when you cancel your Collect or World of Creator subscription, or when you delete your account. Full payment of applicable fees is considered to be active use of Collect.
Paper
Paper allows you to capture your ideas with tools to sketch, type, paint, draw, etc. using the Paper Services. Any content included in the “journals” (including but not limited to digital workbooks, planners, drawings, tutorials, videos) is owned by or licensed to World of Creator and can only be used with express prior written permission from World of Creator.
The Content you create with Paper will be stored on your device and not on our servers. Your Content may be lost if you remove your Content from the Paper Services, if you remove the Paper Services from your device, or if you lose your device. If you choose to export any Content and share it with others, it may be stored elsewhere.
The basic functionality of Paper (“Paper Basic”) is (currently) free from registration and charge.
We also offer “Paper Pro,” a paid subscription service that - compared to Paper Basic - offers you a set of premium services.
When your Paper (Pro) subscription is linked to your Apple ID, you are also allowed to store your Paper Content in the iCloud or to synchronize the Paper Content on your device(s) through your iCloud account. The terms and limitations of Apple (including retention policies) may apply in addition to these Terms.
Paid Transfer
World of Creator offers a service that enables certain users (“Uploaders”) to distribute their Content to others (“Recipients”) and collect payment from them via our integrated third-party payment service provider (“Paid Transfer”).
Paid Transfer allows Uploaders to distribute their Content to others and collect payment for it.
World of Creator does not offer a marketplace for the sale of Content and is not responsible for the distribution of a link transfer whether via World of Creator’s own services or otherwise. Paid Transfer solely provides a service that enables Uploaders to share Content that has been uploaded to the service and collect payment for it. Uploaders are responsible for concluding the contract of sale with Recipients and, without limiting the foregoing, are responsible for complying with any applicable laws related to the sale of their Content and for resolving any disputes (if any) with a Recipient directly.
To use Paid Transfer, an Uploader must upload their Content to the service and choose to distribute a link transfer. The Uploader must set an expiration date for the link transfer, add a price, and share the link transfer with others. Recipients must then click on the link transfer and pay the applicable price for the Content via our third-party payment provider, after which the Recipient will be able to download the Content from our service. Uploaders will be informed of any completed purchases by others. Recipients are responsible for downloading Content prior to the expiry date set by the Uploader and for ensuring safe storage of that Content. World of Creator does not retain any copies of Content after the expiry date of the Content set by the Uploader.
Content Ownership, Permissions, and Responsibility
As an Uploader, you are solely responsible for the Content you upload, share, and sell. You retain all rights and responsibility for all Content you upload and distribute via Paid Transfer. World of Creator does not claim ownership of the Content you upload and share via Paid Transfer. You are solely responsible for sharing the link transfer with potential Recipients.
Any Content you upload to our site will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary. You retain all of your ownership rights in your Content, but you hereby grant us a limited, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, store, and copy that Content and to distribute and make it available for promotional purposes (of Paid Transfer) by World of Creator.
Without prejudice to the other provisions of the Terms (which shall continue to apply to your use of Paid Transfer), as an Uploader you agree that:
- You cannot sell Content or use Paid Transfer in a manner that violates clause 10 (Content ownership, permissions, and responsibility) or 11 (Restrictions) of our Terms, or any other applicable laws.
- By using Paid Transfer, you warrant that you have, for any Content you create, use, share, and collect payment for using Paid Transfer, all required permissions (including from copyright and other intellectual property rights owners) to distribute, sub-license, transfer, store, sell, and/or make the Content available to all Recipients as part of Paid Transfer.
- You hereby agree that you will not upload, share, or collect payment for any Content that is false or misleading or use Paid Transfer in a manner that is fraudulent or deceptive. World of Creator is not liable to you or any third party for any damages arising out of or in relation to the Content shared and sold by you within Paid Transfer, including but not limited to, copyright-protected works and/or trademarks.
As a Recipient you agree that:
- You will purchase the Content directly from the Uploader. If there is any dispute between you and the Uploader, please contact the Uploader directly. The Uploader is responsible for resolving any dispute between you and them.
- World of Creator is not liable to you or any third party for any damages arising out of or in relation to the Content purchased by you within Paid Transfer.
Payments
World of Creator has integrated Lemonsqueezy Connect to process the payments on Paid Transfers. As an Uploader, to use Paid Transfer, you must create a Lemonsqueezy account and agree to Lemonsqueezy’s Terms and Conditions. You warrant that all information that you provide to Lemonsqueezy in connection with the creation and operation of your account with Lemonsqueezy will be complete and accurate and that you will not use the Lemonsqueezy account in any way or for any purpose in breach of Lemonsqueezy’s Terms and Conditions, these Terms, or any applicable laws. Payments will be processed, collected by Lemonsqueezy, and paid to you by Lemonsqueezy in accordance with Lemonsqueezy’s Terms and Conditions. Lemonsqueezy may charge a transaction fee for each transfer sold with Paid Transfer. You agree that you are responsible for this fee.
As an Uploader, you warrant and agree that:
- You will not use Paid Transfer and/or your Lemonsqueezy account in any way or for any purpose in breach of Lemonsqueezy’s Connected Account Agreement or for any activity that law or Lemonsqueezy’s terms and conditions prohibit. If World of Creator becomes aware that or reasonably believes that you are engaging in any activity that is fraudulent, deceptive, or harmful, or in breach of Lemonsqueezy’s Connected Account Agreement or Lemonsqueezy’s Services Agreement, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account without notice. You agree that you will cooperate with us to reduce the risk of fraud or other misuse of Lemonsqueezy’s services, including for us to receive all relevant information which will be provided to Lemonsqueezy.
- You will not use Paid Transfer and/or your Lemonsqueezy account to conduct a Restricted Business (as defined in the Lemonsqueezy Connected Account Agreement and Lemonsqueezy Services Agreement), transact with any such restricted business, or enable any individual or entity (including you) to benefit from any such restricted business.
- You are solely responsible for (i) determining which, if any, taxes or fees apply in your, the Recipient’s or any other’s jurisdiction arising out of your use of Paid Transfer for the purpose of sharing Content and receiving payment for it; and (ii) assessing, collecting, reporting, and remitting those taxes in accordance with any applicable law. In the event that World of Creator is required by law to provide certain tax notices or tax forms you agree that we shall be entitled to receive these notices and forms and to provide the same to you.
- You are responsible for initiating and processing any required refunds to the Recipient via the Lemonsqueezy services.
- World of Creator is not liable for any issues regarding payments made by Recipients, including without limitation charges relating to the processing of your payment, failed payments, chargebacks, or any other payment disputes, all of which will be governed by Lemonsqueezy’s terms and conditions.
- You will not use Paid Transfer to process any transaction that is illegal or that you know or should know is fraudulent or unauthorized.
As a Recipient, you agree that:
- You will not use Paid Transfer to purchase any Content in a manner that violates Lemonsqueezy’s Terms and Conditions, these Terms, or any applicable laws.
- You will not use Paid Transfer to process any transaction that is illegal or that you know or should know is fraudulent or unauthorized.
- You will not request a refund from your credit card provider or bank for any Content purchased using Paid Transfer unless you have first attempted to resolve the dispute with the Uploader directly and have not received a satisfactory resolution.
