Policies

The acceptable-use, supplier and payout policies that govern what can be listed, how it is reviewed, and how suppliers are paid.

Last updated 22 June 2026 · Draft

Draft — pending review

This is a working draft, not final or legally binding wording. It is published so the platform's real behaviour can be reviewed; final wording is pending operator and counsel review before the public launch.

Acceptable use

Capabilities and the calls made against them must be lawful and must respect the declared permission tier. You may not use Vimiana to:

  • break the law or infringe others' rights;
  • circumvent metering, rate limits, spend caps or security controls;
  • attempt server-side request forgery, exfiltrate secrets, or probe internal infrastructure; or
  • publish capabilities that are deceptive, unsafe, or breach these policies.

Listings that breach policy are suspended or removed.

Permission tiers and publication gate

Every capability declares a permission tier and pricing class. Higher-risk tiers are not publishable during the pilot. New utilities pass a publication gate — schema validation, risk review and evaluation checks — before they become public, and some categories require manual review before listing.

Citations and provenance

Categories that require citations enforce them at the point of billing: a result that should carry provenance but does not is treated as a failed calland is not charged. This keeps “no citation, no attribution” a billing guarantee, not just a guideline.

Supplier verification and payouts

Suppliers are verified before they can earn. They earn on each successful call; the platform commission for a listing is fixed when the listing is approved. Payouts run on the platform's published schedule (currently weekly), subject to:

  • a risk-based holding period before earnings become payable;
  • a minimum payout threshold — balances below it carry forward to the next run; and
  • reconciliation against refunds, disputes and clawbacks for the period.

Disputes, refunds and clawback

Consumers may dispute a charged call within the published window. A resolved dispute credits the consumer and is reconciled against the relevant supplier, including as a clawback against future earnings where appropriate. Bad-faith or repeated abusive disputes may trigger caps, cooldowns or suspension. Full mechanics are in the refund & dispute policy.

Provisional — pending the tax / merchant-of-record rulingWhether resolved value returns as platform credit or to the original payment method depends on the merchant-of-record and tax position and will be finalised before real payments are enabled.

Data rights and takedowns

Suppliers attest that they hold the rights to the data and services they publish. Rights complaints — including intellectual property and data-protection complaints — are reviewed and can result in removal of a listing. To report a concern, email legal@vimiana.com.
