Account Creation
Revue provides a website and online services that allow writers and publishers (“Publishers”) to create and send out newsletters, share Content (defined below), and engage with readers (“Readers”) across our websites, apps, and other online services (such as on Twitter) - and for Readers to subscribe to and receive such newsletters, and access such Content on our websites, apps, and other online services.

When you create an account with us, you must provide us information that is accurate, complete, and current at all times. Failure to do so constitutes a breach of the Terms, which may result in immediate termination of your access to the Service. When you register for an account as a Publisher, we may request further information to verify your authenticity prior to your being able to use our Service. Publishers may also add additional users to their account by invite (“Invited Users”). All Invited Users must create an account and agree to these Terms and our Platform Privacy Policy. You are responsible for safeguarding the password that you use to access the Service and for any activities or actions under your password. You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.
Please note that if you subscribe to a newsletter, the Publisher determines whether that newsletter will be free or subject to a subscription fee. Revue does not set the fee for such subscriptions. If you have a dispute regarding any payment you’ve made to the Publisher, you understand and agree that such dispute is between you and the Publisher directly.
You may not use as a username the name of another person or entity or that is not lawfully available for use, a name or trademark that is subject to any rights of another person or entity other than you without appropriate authorization, or a name that is otherwise offensive, vulgar or obscene, or may cause confusion or impersonate another.
As a Publisher, you represent and warrant that you: (i) maintain a privacy policy that discloses to your Readers how you collect, use, share, and store their personal information; and (ii) have all necessary consents for uploading your Readers’ emails and sending them commercial marketing communications through the Service.

You may not avoid your payment obligations to us by using a different payment method.
You agree to pay us the percentage of the total amount charged by you to Readers as set forth on our website, exclusive of any taxes (the “Revenue Share”). You agree that the Payment Processor may pay us the Revenue Share as you process subscription payments, and that these payments are non-refundable. As a Publisher, if you cancel or terminate your paid newsletter before the end of any Reader subscription term, you are responsible for any and all obligations relating to that subscription by the Reader, including any pro-rata refunds, if applicable.
You agree that you will be responsible for any and all applicable federal, state, local, and foreign taxes, duties, tariffs, levies, withholdings, and similar assessments (including without limitation, sales, use, and value added taxes) related to your newsletter. We are only responsible for income taxes related to the profit from the Twitter revenue share.
