01 Acceptance of These Terms
By creating an account, uploading content, or otherwise using any iWCs hub (including Spottabiz, BeatStreet SA, CityMoves SA, Education, Talent for Sport, Short Films, and Tools), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions and our Content Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use iWCs.
iWCs is provided by iWCs (South Africa) and is intended for use by individuals and businesses operating within, or with an interest in, South Africa. These terms apply equally whether you access iWCs on a desktop computer, tablet, or mobile phone, and on any operating system or browser — iWCs is built to work fully across all device types.
02 Your Content, Your Copyright
You keep 100% ownership and copyright of everything you upload. Photos, videos, songs, performances, listings, and any other content you post to iWCs remain your intellectual property at all times.
By uploading content, you grant iWCs a limited, non-exclusive, revocable licence to host, store, display, stream, and distribute that content solely for the purpose of operating the relevant hub and showing your content to other users. This licence ends when you delete the content or close your account, except where a copy is reasonably required for backups, legal compliance, or dispute records.
iWCs does not claim ownership over your work, will not sell your original content to third parties, and will not license your content for use outside iWCs without your separate written permission.
03 Copyright Responsibility & Infringement
You confirm that you own, or have full legal permission to upload, every piece of content you post. You are solely and personally responsible for any content you upload, including full responsibility for any copyright, trademark, performance-rights, or other intellectual-property infringement it may contain.
- You must not upload music, video, images, or other material that belongs to someone else without their explicit permission.
- If a rights holder notifies iWCs of an infringement, we may remove the content and/or suspend the uploading account while the matter is investigated.
- You agree to indemnify and hold iWCs harmless against any claim, fine, loss, or legal cost arising from content you uploaded in breach of this clause.
- Repeated or serious copyright infringement will result in permanent account termination.
04 Content Policy — What's Not Allowed
To keep every iWCs hub safe, respectful, and trustworthy, the following are strictly prohibited on any iWCs application, without exception:
- No pornography or sexually explicit material of any kind, including suggestive content involving minors in any form.
- No political content or campaigning — iWCs is a non-political platform for business and talent, not a platform for political parties, candidates, or campaigning of any kind.
- No abuse or harassment — this includes bullying, hate speech, threats, discrimination, or targeted harassment of any individual or group.
- No false or misleading information — this includes fake product claims, misleading business listings, deceptive pricing, staged reviews, or manipulated media presented as genuine.
Content that breaches this policy will be removed without notice, and the responsible account may be suspended or permanently terminated. Use the "Report Content" button available across the site to flag anything that concerns you.
05 Accurate Membership & No False Advertising
You must register using accurate, truthful information. Creating a fake profile, impersonating another person or business, misrepresenting your identity, age, or business credentials, or maintaining more than one account to manipulate ratings, views, or credits is not permitted and may result in immediate account termination.
All advertising, listings, specials, and business claims posted through iWCs (including via Spottabiz) must be truthful and not misleading. Businesses are responsible for the accuracy of their own listings, pricing, and promotional claims. False advertising, bait-and-switch pricing, or fraudulent business representation will result in listing removal and possible account suspension.
06 Accounts, Credits & Facial Identification
New accounts begin with a starting allocation of upload credits and business-day credits as displayed at sign-up. These are used to access certain features across the hubs and may change over time at iWCs' discretion.
Where facial identification is used during sign-up, iWCs does not store your camera photo. Only a derived digital facial signature — a set of numeric measurements, not a photographic image — is recorded against your profile to help confirm your identity. You may decline facial identification where an alternative verification method is offered.
07 Account Suspension & Termination
iWCs may suspend or permanently close any account that breaches these Terms, the Content Policy, or applicable South African law, at our reasonable discretion and without prior notice where the breach is serious (e.g. illegal content, copyright infringement, fraud, or harassment). Where practical, we will aim to notify you of the reason.
You may close your own account at any time by contacting us. Closing your account does not remove your responsibility for content or conduct that occurred while the account was active.
08 Platform Availability & Changes
iWCs is provided on an "as available" basis. We aim for high uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted access, and features, hubs, or pricing may be added, changed, or withdrawn at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to keep the platform responsive and functional across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices, and across major modern browsers.
09 Limitation of Liability
iWCs is a platform that connects businesses, talent, and the public — we do not create, endorse, or guarantee the accuracy of content posted by members. To the fullest extent permitted by South African law, iWCs is not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of the platform, content posted by other members, or transactions arranged between members off-platform.
10 Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any disputes will, where possible, first be addressed through direct engagement with the iWCs team before formal legal proceedings.
11 Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time as iWCs grows and new hubs are added. Continued use of iWCs after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. Material changes will be reflected by an updated "last updated" date at the top of this page.
