Contributor Agreement

This Contributor Agreement governs what you publish on Onlyoss — your profile, your posts, your video, and anything else you upload. It applies in addition to our Terms and Conditions; where the two conflict on published content, this Agreement takes precedence. "We", "us" and "Onlyoss" mean Ahmed Mohamed Abdelkhalik, trading as Onlyoss; "you" and "Contributor" mean the person publishing the content.

By publishing on Onlyoss, you accept this Agreement.

1. Nothing here is sold

Onlyoss is the only seller on the Platform. You are not selling anything by publishing here, and this Agreement is not a commercial arrangement:

  • you do not set a price, and you cannot charge anyone for anything on the Platform;
  • you do not receive money, hold a balance, or take a payout through the Platform, and there is no revenue share, commission, or withdrawal fee, because there is nothing to share;
  • you must not use the Platform to solicit payment, advertise paid services, or direct members somewhere they can pay you.

If you arrange coaching with somebody you met here, that is between the two of you, off the Platform. We are not a party to it and we do not handle payment for it.

What you get instead is the free Platform: your profile at onlyoss.com/{username}, your martial art and rank, verified by your own academy, your competition record, your QR code, and being findable by people looking for what you do.

2. Your status

You are an independent person publishing your own content. This Agreement creates no employment, partnership, agency, joint venture, or franchise relationship. Nothing here entitles you to benefits, and you are not authorised to bind Onlyoss or represent yourself as speaking for it.

You are responsible for your own taxes, insurance, licences, and for holding any qualification, licence, or registration that the law of your country requires for the instruction you give.

3. Your content

3.1 You keep ownership

You retain all ownership of the content you publish.

3.2 The licence you grant us

You grant Onlyoss a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sub-licensable licence to host, store, encode, reformat, reproduce, publicly display, publicly perform, and distribute your content, and to use your name, username, likeness, and profile image, in order to:

  • show your content to members of the Platform;
  • operate, secure, back up, and improve the Platform;
  • promote the Platform and your presence on it, including in previews, thumbnails, listings, social posts, and advertising.

This licence continues after you leave the Platform, but only so far as necessary for: promotional material already published, backups until they rotate out, and records we must keep by law.

3.3 What you promise about your content

You warrant that:

  • you own your content or have every right and permission needed to publish it here;
  • everyone appearing in it has consented to appear;
  • it does not infringe copyright, trade marks, privacy, or publicity rights;
  • music, footage, and images used in it are properly licensed;
  • it is accurate about your rank, your competition record, your affiliation and your qualifications, and does not promise results you cannot support;
  • it complies with all applicable law.

4. Standards

You must not publish content that is sexually explicit, hateful, harassing, gratuitously violent beyond the legitimate depiction of martial arts training, dangerous without adequate safety guidance, or that features anyone under 18 inappropriately.

Because your content instructs people to move their bodies, you must include reasonable safety guidance where a technique carries obvious risk, and must not present yourself as giving medical, physiotherapeutic, or nutritional advice unless you are qualified to do so.

4.1 People who appear in your content

Everyone identifiable in your content must have agreed to appear.

Minors. Class, drilling, and sparring footage often includes children. Where any identifiable person under 18 appears, you must hold written consent from their parent or legal guardian before publishing, and produce it to us on request. A minor must never be the primary subject of your content, and you must not include a minor's full name, school, club location, or any other detail that would let a stranger find them.

Training partners, students, and clients must consent before you publish footage of them.

We will remove content immediately, without notice, where consent is disputed or cannot be evidenced.

4.2 Nutrition, diet and supplements

If you publish nutrition or weight-management content:

  • you must hold a relevant qualification before giving individualised dietary prescriptions, as opposed to general guidance;
  • you must not promote extreme calorie restriction, rapid weight-loss protocols, fasting presented as a cure, purging, or any other disordered-eating practice;
  • you must not present any supplement or product as treating, preventing, or curing a medical condition;
  • you must clearly disclose any commercial relationship, sponsorship, discount code, or affiliate arrangement behind a product you recommend;
  • you must tell users to consult a doctor before significant dietary change, and must not target dietary content at anyone you know to be pregnant, under 18, or managing a medical condition.

4.3 Results, transformations and claims

If you publish before-and-after imagery or make claims about outcomes:

  • you must hold consent from everyone shown, including past clients;
  • the results must be genuine, achieved as described, and not digitally altered, differently lit, differently posed, or otherwise framed to exaggerate;
  • you must not present an exceptional result as typical;
  • where a result was supported by anything you are not describing — coaching in person, medication, surgery, or performance-enhancing substances — you must say so;
  • you must not guarantee a specific weight, physique, belt, competition result, or timeframe.

Claims about physical results are regulated advertising in many countries. You are responsible for the claims you make, and you indemnify us under section 7 for them.

4.4 Rank and record

Your listed rank, your competition record and your academy affiliation must be true. Do not claim a rank you were not awarded, a result you did not achieve, or an affiliation you do not hold.

If you verify ranks on behalf of an academy, you must be authorised by that academy to do so, and you must verify only ranks that academy actually awarded. Verifying a rank dishonestly is a material breach of this Agreement, and costs the academy its verification authority.

5. Your relationship with other members

You are responsible for what you publish and how you conduct yourself. You must not contact members for purposes unrelated to the Platform, harass them, solicit money from them, or misuse any personal information you learn through the Platform. Members' personal information is not yours to export, retain, or market to.

6. No guarantee

We give no guarantee of audience, ranking, visibility, discovery, or of the continued availability of any feature. Nothing said by us, in marketing or otherwise, is a promise of any outcome.

7. Indemnity

You will indemnify and hold harmless Onlyoss, its operators, and its personnel against any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, or expense — including reasonable legal fees — arising from:

  • your content, including any claim that it infringes someone's rights;
  • any instruction you gave, including any claim of injury arising from it;
  • your breach of this Agreement, our Terms, or any law;
  • your tax position, or any claim that you were our employee.

This obligation survives termination.

8. Suspension and termination

You may stop publishing at any time, and may request closure of your account from your settings.

We may remove content, or suspend or terminate your account, immediately where you materially breach this Agreement, where your content draws credible infringement or safety complaints, where a rank verification proves dishonest, where we suspect fraud, or where we are legally required to.

On termination your content stops being shown, and the licence in section 3.2 continues only for the limited purposes stated there.

9. Confidentiality

Non-public information you learn about the Platform — including unreleased features, internal figures, and member data — is confidential and must not be disclosed or used outside the Platform.

10. Changes

We may update this Agreement. Where changes are material we will give reasonable notice by email or on the Platform. Continuing to publish after they take effect means you accept them. If you do not accept, stop publishing.

11. General

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Arab Republic of Egypt, with the courts of Alexandria, Egypt having exclusive jurisdiction, subject to any mandatory local rights you have. If a provision is unenforceable, the rest stands. You may not assign this Agreement; we may. Sections that by their nature survive termination — licence, indemnity, and confidentiality — do so.
