The clause establishes the scope of data collection activities across both user-initiated submissions and automatic collection mechanisms. This operational scope determines what categories of personal, financial, and behavioral data the service captures throughout the user engagement lifecycle, from account setup through service use and customer interactions.
The updated terms establish a new Creator Program for UK users that allows them to submit content (videos, shopping hauls, seller spotlights) and potentially receive program benefits including cash payments, shopping credit, or promotional support. The terms grant Whatnot a one-year non-exclusive license to use submitted content across all marketing channels worldwide for promotion, advertising, and derivative works without additional compensation beyond the stated program benefit. Creators must be at least 18 years old, maintain a valid Whatnot account, and complete identity verification and tax documentation before receiving any payment. The terms state explicitly that submission does not guarantee content will be selected, used, featured, or rewarded, and Whatnot retains discretion to reject, remove, or stop using content at any time.
