2 The terms
- Independent contractor. The Creator works with eRunna as an independent contractor, paid per deliverable — not an employee, and not on a day rate. Neither party is obliged to offer or accept any work.
- How you work. The Creator uses their own equipment, chooses their own hours and method, may work for others, and may decline any brief. eRunna sets the deliverable and deadline — not how or when it is made.
- Shoot days. Where eRunna runs a shoot, eRunna provides the direction, location, crew, call sheet and on-set safety, and the Creator attends as talent for that one production. Each shoot is a separate, one-off engagement — not ongoing or rostered work.
- Pay & tax. The Creator invoices per deliverable; eRunna pays gross with no tax deducted. The Creator is responsible for their own tax as a provisional taxpayer, including the value of any perks or products received.
- The content is eRunna's. On payment, the content and its intellectual-property rights become eRunna's to use, edit and publish across any media. The Creator warrants the content is original and all rights — including music — are cleared.
- Image & likeness. Where the Creator appears, they consent to eRunna using their image, voice and name in the content and its promotion, across all media, and to it remaining published after the engagement ends.
- Posting it yourself. The Creator is never obliged to post on their own accounts. If they choose to, they must clearly label it a paid partnership (#ad).
- Claims. The Creator uses only claims eRunna has approved, and makes no earnings, pricing or availability claims eRunna has not confirmed.
- Confidentiality. The Creator keeps anything seen early — the app, features or plans — confidential until it is public.
- Ending it. Each brief ends when delivered and paid. As neither party must offer or accept work, simply not continuing is not a dismissal. eRunna may end any brief immediately for breach or misuse.
- Governing law. This agreement is governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa.

- Not legal advice. An SA employment attorney + tax practitioner must approve before use; statutory references are indicative.
- Cl.1 classification. The reality/dominant-impression test governs; LRA s200A / BCEA s83A presumptions apply below the earnings threshold (~R269,600.90/yr, 1 May 2026) — the terms must be lived, not just signed.
- Cl.3 shoot. A controlled shoot at eRunna's premises engages the Fourth-Schedule "premises + control" PAYE-deeming test and on-set OHSA/COIDA duties — keep shoots one-off.
- Cl.4 tax. Engage the Creator as a natural-person sole proprietor (avoids the PSP 27%/45% withholding); confirm no PAYE obligation.
- Cl.5 IP. Choose assignment vs perpetual licence; platform/trending audio is not cleared for eRunna re-post — require original or cleared audio.
- Cl.6 likeness. Define the usage buyout (media / territory / term) and any take-down carve-out for paid media already placed.
- Cl.7–8 advertising. Paid-partnership disclosure and claims per the ARB Code and CPA ss 29 & 41.
- [TBD] company registration no. · payment term · notice period · indemnity cap · minimum age 18.
