GLOSSARY OF TERMS

When the euro dollar fiat currency loses value or becomes obsolete or the elite banking cartel crashes the system and it's value of money (fiat currency), the bench mark (CPI) value of our internal credit-euro will become equivalent to 1 gram of gold to 1 credit-euro (known also as ₠ credit exchange) by the social tacit agreement of our gold standard of authority members, in divine covenant from within and the (mauri) spirit of energy exchange between each member of the alliance.

Jurisdictional Issues
Users of GAIN are themselves responsible for making sure they are in compliance with legislation of the jurisdiction they operate in. You are a Non-Government Foundation affiliated to (GAIN) Gain2u Network under the authority of IO Matua Te Runga Rawa our Supreme Heavenly Father, Almighty GOD. You are also affiliated to “The Kingdom House of IO” - "Te Whare Matamuatanga o IO – “Aotearoha Kawanatanga” – “World of Love Governance” and the Holy Triune who is the (USA) Universal Sovereign Authority. There is no other authority above this by “Universal Lore/Law”.
Members JOIN on faith.
Members who join the GAIN Community Support Network receive a business start-up of 10 Million Digital Credits or (₠) Credit Euro that can be exchanged on real tangible and true intrinsic value of crypto-currencies, products and services. The business start-up is not required to be repaid as it is deemed to be part of a divine inheritance. Please note there is a 10% Tithe on this amount including any items sold or exchanged and any transfers within the system.
Trading of this nature requires ALL Members to be in agreement by mutual consent that our (₠) Credit Euro is abundance-based credits that increase in value. When NEW members activate their platinum membership and ad plan subscriptions and start sponsoring New Trading Partners to earn ongoing weekly credit residuals that can be exchanged with tangible products and services, the (ICO) initial credit offering is set at 10,000 to 50,000 up to a Platinum Member which increases weekly.
Each (₠) Credit Euro is valued at €1 Euro Dollar based on acceptance of agreement of all members when joining. The external value of the Company would be based on the internal credits and trade values of all products and services within the network.
As New Trading Partners join and activate their accounts to start exchanging current-sees, products and services, the value of our credits increase in value, with the (ICO) initial credit offering of up to 50,000 Credits multiplied by the number of active platinum members, multiplied by the number of weeks they have been active. There is no cap on the value of our (₠) Credit Euro. All credits within the system remain in the system at a 1 for 1 value exchange.
While members can join without using cash, money or fiat currency within the GAIN Community Support Network with no obligation to repay the business start-up, GAIN is a private group and use of the GAIN e-wallet does have a €240 a year plus GST e-Wallet Fee. We will be growing at a very fast pace as a community and GAIN Admin uses these fees to cover the costs of the entire GAIN technology and daily operations. We are not like the other public centralized market driven crypto-coins you see in the marketplace, we are exclusively private and decentralized and will introduce "Abundance-based" credits into the world, with a mission to End Poverty and Oppression globally.
Forced Binary Matrix (if applicable)
When Members join they are automatically placed into a 4 x 12 forced binary matrix. For those members who introduce four (4) financially active members (FAM) or more into their frontline support network, they qualify to receive a 10% Deposit for Lease to own Real Estate or a Business Venture when the 4 x 12 forced binary matrix positions are completely filled with subscribers to the platform. More details can be found by reading the (FAQ’s) frequently asked question?, on the website.
GAIN2U Network Membership Agreement
The formula begins with a membership agreement. All members of GAIN community support network agree that the (₠) Credit Euro shares value will never go down in value; it can only go up in value with the number of members who join. This agreement is hinged on a software program that drives the shares value of GAIN up by the number of members on active trading platinum membership and ad subscriptions that will never be capped, therefore creating wealth and abundance for all participants of the platform.
Penalty for Breaking the Membership Agreement
All of your GAIN e-wallets will be suspended without warning FOREVER if submitted documentation proves that you are attempting to or have broken the Membership Agreement. All buying and selling of GAIN credits must be done at the Current Price of the (€) Euro Dollar and ONLY Admin can sell any credits externally. Selling GAIN credits at a discount is strictly forbidden and punishment will be swift and without notice given. All packages of GAIN credits sold adding GAIN credits as a gift will also be considered as discounting the price of GAIN and will be punished. Writing an instalment contract is the same as discounting the future price of GAIN credits. Any activity that creates competition between members on the basis of price is some form of discounting. The foundation of the GAIN community support network is the Membership Agreement and we will not allow anyone to discredit it, and have zero tolerance for anyone who attempts too.
The Uncapped Price
The formula of the Uncapped Price of GAIN (The Company) and its (₠) Credit Euro is 50,000 (€) Euro Dollars multiplied by the total number of Verified Members on active trading platinum membership and ad plan subscriptions within the community, multiplied by the number of weeks they have been active.
The Initial Price
We Launched GAIN2U Network on 1st July, 2019 with the Initial Price of 1 (€) Euro Dollar per GAIN (₠) Credit Euro for the first member.
The Current Price
Internally the current price of items listed will be set at the prices people are willing to pay, creating a fair and competitive market place. Externally, the business Current Price or value of the exchange is determined by the Initial Price to the Uncapped Price and the number of active and verified Platinum Members.
The Path
The path the Current Price takes from the Initial Price to the Uncapped Price is determined by the verified active members on platinum membership subscriptions participating in ad plan trade and exchange of products and services that measures the average daily increase in value. From the Day of Launch on 1st July, 2019 the Current Price has followed the membership growth and has increased in value. The XLS calculation formula can provide an example by inserting a number of verified members to show how the Current Price will continue to increase in value.

Code of conduct
This code sets out principles and behaviors that the Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader Community reasonably expects of buyers and sellers participating in online auctions.
Code of Practice
Confidentiality
We are committed to maintaining the highest degree of integrity in all our dealings with potential, current and past clients, both in terms of normal commercial confidentiality, and the protection of all personal information received in the course of providing the business services concerned. We extend the same standards to all our customers, suppliers and associates.
Ethics
We always conduct our own services honestly and honorably, and expect our clients and suppliers to do the same. Our advice, strategic assistance and the methods imparted through our training, take proper account of ethical considerations, together with the protection and enhancement of the moral position of our clients and suppliers.
Duty of care
Our actions and advice will always conform to relevant law, and we believe that all businesses and organizations, including this consultancy, should avoid causing any adverse effect on the human rights of people in the organizations we deal with, the local and wider environments, and the well-being of society at large.
Conflict of interest
Due to the sensitive nature of our particular consultancy services, we will not provide a service to a direct competitor of a client, and we generally try to avoid any dealings with competitor companies even after the cessation of services to a client.
Cooperative Agreements
Our agreements will usually be in the form of a detailed proposal, including aims, activities, costs, timescales and deliverables. The quality of our service and the value of our support provide the only true basis for continuity. We always try to meet our clients' cooperative requirements, and particularly for situations where an external credit provider requires more official and accountable parameters and controls.
Costs
Our costs are always competitive for what we provide, which is high quality, tailored, specialized service. As such we do not generally offer arbitrary discounts; generally a reduction in price is only enabled by reducing the level or extent of services to be delivered. That said, we always try to propose solutions, which accommodate our clients' available budgets and timescales. Wherever possible we agree our costs and basis of charges clearly in advance, so that we and our clients can plan reliably for what lies ahead, and how it is to be achieved and accountably justified.
Payment
We aim to be as flexible as possible in the way that our services are charged. Some clients prefer fixed project fees; others are happier with retainers, and we try to fit in with what will be best for the client. We make no attempt to charge interest on late payments, so we expect payments to be made when agreed. Our terms are generally net monthly in arrears.
Intellectual property and moral rights
We retain the moral rights in, and ownership of, all intellectual property that we create unless agreed otherwise in advance with our clients. In return we respect the moral and intellectual copyright vested in our clients' intellectual property.

2.7 In ALL circumstances the Seller can ship goods outside of their country of origin providing costs are covered by the Buyer.
3. The Pay Now Service
3.1 GAIN Global Trader will provide the Seller with the option to accept payment by Pay Now, Credits when listing an item.

a. Indicate on that listing that payment can be made by Pay Now, Credits; and
b. Facilitate the option for buyers to pay for the item using Pay Now, Credits.
4. How funds are held
4.1 GAIN Global Trader will hold the credit received from buyers on trust. GAIN Global Trader is authorized to deduct its fees.
4.2 GAIN Global Trader will hold the Credits for up to three working days, and will then pass the Credits on to the Seller's Nominated Credit Account (if applicable).
4.3 GAIN Global Trader may hold payments for longer periods at its discretion, such as to minimize fraud risks, or if the Seller's Nominated Credit Account is not a GAIN credit account. No payment will be unreasonably withheld.
4.4 To provide the Seller with visibility of payments, GAIN Global Trader will provide the Seller with a Pay Now account where the Seller can view that payments have been made by the Buyer, before being transferred to the Seller's Nominated Credit Account. The Seller acknowledges that payments into the Seller's Pay Now Account are not a guarantee of payment into the Seller's Nominated Credit Account.
5. Charges and Fees
5.1 Gain2u Network will charge the Seller a fee for every credit transfer transaction under this agreement as a fee for facilitating the Service. The fee will be 10% of the transaction value and will be deducted from the Seller's Pay Now account. GAIN Global Trader may change this fee at any time with one week's notice.
5.2 In some circumstances, (such as if the Buyer disputes authorizing a payment) the Company may Chargeback a payment (a Chargeback). In the event of a Chargeback Gain2u Network will refund the 10% fee.

8.2 GAIN Global Trader has systems in place to reduce the risk of credit card fraud and prevent the unauthorized use of credit or debit cards. Sellers should not release or send goods purchased via Pay Now until notified to do so by GAIN Global Trader.

9. Reversals, Chargebacks and refunds
9.1 GAIN Global Trader may reverse a payment to the Seller should a Chargeback or an erroneous payment occur.

9.4 Except as outlined in section 8, GAIN Global Trader is not liable for letting through transactions that result in Chargebacks and loss for sellers. In the event of a chargeback (or refund) GAIN Global Trader will debit the amount from the Seller's Pay Now account, so that the funds are deducted from the Seller's next payment.

10. Transaction limits
10.1 Transaction limits apply and may be changed by GAIN Global Trader at any time.

a. GAIN Global Trader only facilitates the Service, and does not take any part in the sale itself including as an agent for either party.
b. GAIN Global Trader's fraud protection systems may from time to time block legitimate payments. In these cases, payment will need to be made by other means.
c. GAIN Global Trader makes no warranty that the Service will meet the requirements of all prospective users, or that the Service (including any reports) will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error free.

Cooling Off Period - When a new Independent Business Owner enrolls, this contract may be cancelled within 3 business days after the enrolment consistent with the cancelation notice on the Independent Business Owner Agreement.
4. Refund Policy
4.1 Product Refunds / Returns- Independent Business Owners and Customers
Due to the nature of the downloadable digital application/products/personalized back-office and credit account e-wallet being offered, it is commercially impractical for Global Advertising Internet Network to offer refunds to Independent Business Owners or customers. Upon purchasing a downloadable product/personalized back-office and credit account e-wallet from Global Advertising Internet Network, the purchaser (IBO and Customer) experiences the benefit immediately without the ability to return it. Independent Business Owners must strongly encourage all purchasers to closely review the available templates and application training videos prior to purchase to ensure they’re fully informed of the offering. Independent Business Owners and their customers are encouraged to contact Global Advertising Internet Network Support with any concerns regarding your inability to use the products as Customer Support is available.
Weekly subscription fees are assessed on the first day of the week after which the original purchase was made. Cancelation of this weekly subscription must be made in writing to gain2u.nz@gmail.com prior to the next billing date. No refunds will be issued for weekly charges.
Online training videos and Frequently Asked Questions (GAIN Knowledge Base) are available to support the application of the downloadable products. IBOs and customers are also encouraged to contact their sponsor or sales person for additional support with the product. If a customer or IBO reverses or charges back their credit card purchase of a downloadable Global Advertising Internet Network product, the commission of the direct sponsor will be adjusted by the amount reversed or charged back.
4.2 IBO Enrolment Refunds
An IBO may cancel their enrolment and request a return of the enrolment fee (if any), without any penalty or obligation, within THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS from the date of enrolment. To cancel this transaction and request a refund, go to gain2u.nz@gmail.com and submit a request for cancellation and refund. While enrolment fees will be refunded as noted above, product purchases made during or subsequent to enrolment/participation will not be refunded as explained above in section 4.1.
5. Credit Charge-backs and Disputes
A fee of 50 Credits will be assessed against the credit chargeback of any customer or IBO who initiates a chargeback for purchases made. Alternatively, Global Advertising Internet Network may choose to assess this fee from any unreleased commissions on the IBOs account.
If an IBO initiates a chargeback, their account will be suspended and they will be ineligible to earn further commissions until the matter is resolved. The account will remain Suspended until such time as the IBO rescinds the chargeback.
6. Exclusive Rights
These Terms and Conditions, together with the GAIN Program and Policies and Procedures, constitute the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter. They may be amended from time to time as the Company deems appropriate and reasonable. The list of Independent Business Owners sponsored to GAIN shall constitute commercially advantageous proprietary assets and trade secrets of GAIN, which the Company has agreed to hold confidential. Whereas GAIN owns the Independent Business Owners list and the business opportunity attendant upon it, the Company also reserves the right to work independently with any Independent Business Owners and may use its list at its discretion.
7. Waiver
GAIN reserves its right to insist on compliance with these Terms and Conditions, or with any applicable laws governing the conduct of business in the respective countries.

The IBO acknowledges this agreement is legal and binding and should seek legal counsel. By agreeing to the Terms and Conditions of this agreement the IBO waives this right.
It shall constitute an integral part of these Terms and Conditions any Regulation, Instruction, Condition and/or Policies including, Direct Purchase Bonus, New Business Startup, Travel Incentive Trip policy issued by GAIN or that which may be issued/amended from time to time in GAIN’s website, releases, bulletins and/or any other publication thereof.

Copyright Policy
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under the U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by this site infringe your copyright, you or your agent may send to the Company a notice requesting that the material be removed or access to it be blocked. Any notification by a copyright owner or a person authorized to act on its behalf that fails to comply with requirements of the DMCA shall not be considered sufficient notice and shall not be deemed to confer upon the Company actual knowledge of facts or circumstances from which infringing material or acts are evident. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send to the Company a counter-notice. All notices and counter notices must meet the then current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright for details. The Company’s Copyright Agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement or counter notices can be reached at gain2u.nz@gmail.com
We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.
Fair Use Act Disclaimer
Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for “fair use” for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education and research.
Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favor of fair use. FAIR USE DEFINITION: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use Fair use is a doctrine in the United States copyright law that allows limited use of copyrighted material without requiring permission from the rights holders, such as for commentary, criticism, news reporting, research, teaching or scholarship. It provides for the legal, non-licensed citation or incorporation of copyrighted material in another author’s work under a four-factor balancing test. The term “fair use” originated in the United States. A similar principle, fair dealing, exists in some other common law jurisdictions. Civil law jurisdictions have other limitations and exceptions to copyright. U.S. COPYRIGHT OFFICE- FAIR USE DEFINITION http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html one of the rights accorded to the owner of copyright is the right to reproduce or to authorize others to reproduce the work in copies or phone records. This right is subject to certain limitations found in sections 107 through 118 of the copyright law (title 17, U.S. Code). One of the more important limitations is the doctrine of “fair use”. The doctrine of fair use has developed through a substantial number of court decisions over the years and has been codified in section 107 of the copyright law. Section 107 contains a list of the various purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered fair, such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Section 107 also sets out in four factors to be considered in determining whether or not a particular use is fair: The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for non-profit educational purposes The nature of the copyrighted work The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work The distinction between fair use and infringement may be unclear and not easily defined. There is no specific number of words, lines, or notes that may safely be taken without permission. Acknowledging the source of the copyrighted material does not substitute for obtaining permission. The 1961 Report of the Register of Copyrights on the General Revision of the U.S. Copyright Law cites examples of activities that courts have regarded as fair use: “quotation of excerpts in a review or criticism for purposes of illustration or comment; quotation of short passages in a scholarly or technical work, for illustration or clarification of the author’s observations; use in a parody of some of the content of the work parodied; summary of an address or article, with brief quotations, in a news report; reproduction by a library of a portion of a work to replace part of a damaged copy; reproduction by a teacher or student of a small part of a work to illustrate a lesson; reproduction of a work in legislative or judicial proceedings or reports; incidental and fortuitous reproduction, in a newsreel or broadcast, of a work located in the scene of an event being reported.” Copyright protects the particular way an author has expressed himself. It does not extend to any ideas, systems, or factual information conveyed in the work.

GAIN and CONG may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or subpoena or if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation or legal request; to protect the safety of any person; to address fraud, security or technical issues; or to protect GAIN and CONG's rights or property.

GAIN and CONG may allow third-party ad servers or ad networks to serve advertisements on the Service. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on GAIN and CONG. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or web beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content. GAIN and CONG does not provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent. However, please note that if an advertiser asks GAIN and CONG to show an advertisement to a certain audience and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach. In addition, third-party advertisers may use information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

Our pre-launch mechanism for global marketing
Our Smart Phone Mobile Applications for Android on Google Play Store and an iOS Apple Store application allows anyone over the age of 18 years to join with a one-off start-up €10 Euro Dollar pre-launch pledge plus any gateway fees.
Members are required to sponsor 10 New Subscribers within the first month of joining and add 1 New Subscriber each month thereafter to qualify for rewards as they automatically upgrade through the 6 plans of each 10 x 6 matrix. The pledge increases 10 fold and the rewards increase 1,000 fold, providing members with uncapped rewards.
Remember that it is a one-off €10 Euro Dollar pre-launch pledge, plus any gateway fees, which means most people can and probably will establsh more than one account based on the affordability to get started. Also they can upgrade using their credit-line when they receive their automatic pledge and upgrade incentive rewards.
This is our own private medium of exchange supported by the true intrinsic exchange of items listed by our members and their agreed acceptance of value in credit-euro, as well as the accumulated legal tender currency from the initating pledges of our subscribers.
Members will be required to upgrade and pay the set-up pledge and monthly platform pledge below to use their credit-euro (energy exchange) current-see to spend on items listed on the advertising website. This can be done with accumulated credit-euro from your e-wallet balance or our payment gateway if you have insufficient credit-euro. Please note that paypal and stripe gateway fees have been preset at 5.9% of the tranaction values.
Your support is greatly appreciated. This pre-launch pledge establishes the internal administration infrastructure of a Buyer's Network and our internal private medium of exchange.
Platform Service Charge
One-time €250 Euro Dollars, upfront capital pledge to set-up your private account and a €20 Euro Dollars, monthly recurring subscription pledge thereafter, for the use of the service platform, (One year in advance) plus any gateway fees.

Gateway Fees:
Paypal, Stripe and GAIN Foundation has preset the gateway fees at 5.9% of the value of exchange.
IMPORTANT
NO exterrnal monthly subscription or default on payments will result in NO commissions or incentive rewards. Any internal credit-euro paid into your e-wallet account(s) can be reversed or withdrawn if the before occurs.
Any misconduct or dishonor will result in accounts being suspended for remedy or terminated entirely.
Our credit-euro zero balances the debt ledger of fiat currency and your exchange value is supported by the true intrinsic value of your products and services exchanged as well as the accumulated legal tender value from the initiating pledges made by our subscribers. You are no longer debt slaves. By using credit-euro you are now deemed to be sovereign creditors in credit and free to be infinite and eternal.

Accordingly, sellers must sight the firearms license of the buyer, or for remote sales sellers must receive written confirmation signed by Police confirming the buyer holds a valid firearm's license. Forms are available at any police station and following an October 2015 change in Police policy, Police will email the completed form to the seller.

Intellectual Property Rights
We work hard to ensure that the site is free from counterfeit goods and items that infringe other people's intellectual property rights – which includes the protection of smartphones, tablets, clothing, and handbags across hundreds of popular brands.
We take this stuff seriously as we want Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader to remain a trusted place for Kiwis to buy and sell everything under the sun (minus all the stuff on our banned and restricted list, of course).
Our first priority is to protect our members and the marketplace we operate, and that means we need to do our bit to help consumers not be misled or confused about what they are buying by helping sellers understand what is and isn't OK to sell.
We want Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader to remain a site where our members can buy with confidence and be sure they are buying genuine items – if the deal you are about to offer is too good to be true, it probably isn't so don't list it.
Intellectual property and Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader
There are also some legal requirements under Section 92C of the Copyright Act which mean that if we “know or have reason to believe” that a listing on the site breaches copyright, we need to remove it.
I'm a rights holder, how do I get on board the Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader IPR programme?
We take infringements of intellectual property rights seriously, so if you are a brand owner or intellectual property rights holder and believe products on Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader infringe your rights please contact us. We have an established process in place for intellectual property owners.
How many brands are part of it?
Our IPR programme is a dynamic beast and is not a new initiative – it has been in place for years. At the moment there are more than 800 brands we work with. We hear from them from time-to-time, and all of them have provided us with information about their rights. It’s important to note that the programme is not just in place for big companies – we work with rights holders across the spectrum and they come in all shapes and sizes from knife-makers and artists, to paint companies and singers.
What sort of proof do you require?
We usually require registered proof of intellectual property rights (e.g. IPONZ registration, registered patents, etc.), so some sort of vague email or phone call will not cut the mustard. Having proof means we guard against spurious claims between competitors.
How does Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader find out about alleged breaches?
Mainly via infringement notices provided by rights holders. If you see something and think we should take a closer look, hit the Community Watch button at the bottom of a listing.
What does Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader do?
It's a bit of a balancing act to make sure our actions are fair to buyers, and fair to sellers.
When an alleged breach is brought to our attention by a rights holder, we review it in conjunction with the information they have provided us. If we agree there’s a breach, the listings will be edited or removed and we will contact the seller to let them know why.
We also take proactive action in some cases where we believe products are likely to deceive or confuse the average buyer.
If a seller is blatantly disregarding our advice and continues to list items that are potentially in breach, they will be banned.
If we’re not presented with sufficient information, or if we believe the brand is overstepping the mark we push back and ask for more information (or decline the request). Our responsibilities under the Privacy Act mean we can release member information for the purpose of court or tribunal proceedings. We require evidence that proceedings are in play, or a court order before we pass on information about a seller, or provide their details to a rights holder. This is because we want to ensure Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader is also a fair venue for sellers.

Using GAIN Global Trader's trade marks in applications
We want people to use the API to build cool, creative and useful applications, but we don't want them to be confused about what GAIN Global Trader has (or hasn't) been involved in building.
We're pretty reasonable, but we do have a few dos and don'ts in relation to the way applications that tap into the GAIN Global Trader API are represented.

Before you copy that image from Google....
Copying photos is illegal as they are protected by copyright. It is only OK to use photos you have taken yourself.
9 February 2021
I'm sure you'd agree that as sellers on Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader, we all want to make our listings look pretty and professional.
And, what better way to do this than running a quick Google image search, and borrowing an image from the pros.
Right??
Well you can’t do this and here’s why…
Those images look professional, because they are. Popular brands like OPI, Nike and Samsung have most likely paid to have them created.
This means that they now own the copyright over them, and can control how they are used.
Copyright arises automatically in original works, and can cover things like drawings, art, photos and text.
If you ’borrow' an image off Google without permission or authorization, you could be breaching someone’s copyright.
Global Advertising Internet Network and GAIN Global Trader operates an intellectual property programme where we work with around 800 brands, rights holders and their lawyers on a daily basis.
If a rights holder gets in touch with us about your use of their copyright material, and we agree with their position, we’ll have to remove any copyright material from your listing, or remove it entirely.
This is why we recommend using your own images and writing your own text as the best course of action. Also, using your own detailed photos is a great way to avoid disputes with buyers.
If you advertise your products honestly and accurately, you’re way less likely to end up in the Dispute Tribunal.
There’s no register for copyright in New Zealand like there is in America, so we understand that copyright can be a bit of a grey area.
To get more info, we recommend you check out the Intellectual Property Office’s information on copyright and the Copyright Council of New Zealand’s FAQs.
If you’re an intellectual property rights holder, and you think your copyright is being infringed, make sure you get in touch.

2. Truthful Presentation - Advertisements should not contain any statement or visual presentation or create an overall impression which directly or by implication, omission, ambiguity or exaggerated claim is misleading or deceptive, is likely to deceive or mislead the consumer, makes false and misleading representation, abuses the trust of the consumer or exploits his/her lack of experience or knowledge. (Obvious hyperbole, identifiable as such, is not considered to be misleading).
3. Research, Tests and Surveys - Advertisements should not use tests and surveys, research results or quotations from technical and scientific literature, in a manner which is misleading or deceptive.
4. Decency - Advertisements should not contain anything which clearly offends against generally prevailing community standards taking into account the context, medium, audience and product (including services).

11. Advocacy Advertising - Expression of opinion in advocacy advertising is an essential and desirable part of the functioning of a democratic
society. Therefore such opinions may be robust. However, opinion should be clearly distinguishable from factual information. The identity of an advertiser in matters of public interest or political issue should be clear.
12. Safety - Advertisements should not, unless justifiable on educational or social grounds, contain any visual presentation or any description of dangerous or illegal practices or situations which encourage a disregard for safety.
GAIN Community Standards
In order to maintain a respectful, inclusive, and safe environment for everyone, we’ve created a set of community standards to serve as a moral compass for behavior on our platform. These standards help define what is acceptable in the GAIN community and marketplace, and explain how violations are enforced. They aren’t tied to any law, but are used to govern our platform policies. They reflect our attitudes, expectations, and social norms. Our community standards are rooted in our core values — love, respect, safety, acceptance, support, and open-mindedness.
Just like our community, these standards will continue to grow, evolve, and change. We have embedded examples in the community standards for unacceptable activities on GAIN. Please note that these are intended to be examples only and not a complete list.
We encourage our community to use our reporting tools when encountering anything that is unacceptable. We want to create the best experience for all community members, and ask that you respect and follow these guidelines.

Misrepresentation is defined as fraudulent, negligent, or innocent misstatements, or an incomplete statement of a material fact.
Misleading profile information
Do not:
Misrepresenting Gig elements
Do not:
Spam
We define spam on GAIN as a messaging activity that is unwanted, repeatedly occurring, and disruptive to the experience of recipients. Spam can take many forms ranging from unwanted offers to commercially-motivated solicitations that aim to drive traffic or attention to websites, products, and services outside of GAIN.
Please respect our members’ privacy by not contacting them with offers, questions, suggestions, or anything which is not directly related to their Gigs or orders.
Do not:
Prohibited Services
GAIN is an open marketplace where users can offer or request a great variety of services. However, for a number of reasons, we prohibit certain types of services on GAIN. Some services can pose unwanted risks for our users like legal or financial risks; others are simply not in line with our values and policies.
Here are the type of services prohibited on GAIN:
Services that can pose legal risks for our users

Deep fakes
Deep fakes are created using artificial intelligence technology that superimposes the movements and words of one person onto another.
Services that promise outcomes that are not in your control
In certain instances, sellers may be tempted to promise outcomes of their service which is not in their control. For example, guaranteeing to restore your Amazon account or promising an exact amount of viewers for a Youtube video by its digital promotion. Please refrain from promising outcomes that are not in your control because it misleads buyers.
Homework and academic services
GAIN’s marketplace is open for sellers to offer any creative and productive service they wish to propose. With that being said we ask to refrain from offering or asking for any academic work. Taking part in doing someone else’s academic work (which will likely be submitted as the student’s own work) or requesting academic work to be done for you, is unethical since it violates most schools’ Honor Codes and may constitute copyright infringement. GAIN does not allow these types of fraudulent activities and it will not be permitted on our platform.
Do not post, offer, or ask for:
Writing of: Homework, academic papers, bibliography, letters of recommendation, college applications, etc.
Services that involve sharing personal information of third parties

Documentary Exception
GAIN will allow nudity when the primary purpose is educational, scientific, or artistic, and it isn't gratuitous.

Out-of-context nudity from indigenous communities, protests, medical procedures, childbirth, artistic performances, breastfeeding or like, may not meet our documentary exception.
Fake News
GAIN defines Fake News as false or intentionally misleading information or propaganda that is developed and presented as authentic news. If it is reported or flagged that GAIN's platform is being used to create or promote the spread of fake news; we will investigate and take action accordingly.

Do not express your unwillingness to work with a person or a group of people based on political affiliation.
Intellectual Property
GAIN content is based on User Generated Content (UGC). If you believe any of the uploaded content violates your copyright or a related exclusive right, you should follow the process described here.
Upon receipt of a report from a rights holder or an authorized representative, we will remove or restrict content that engages in:
Violence and Criminal Behavior
Threats
While we know that people sometimes express frustration or disagreement by threatening or calling for violence in non-serious ways, we can’t risk the safety of our community or the general public by ignoring threats of physical harm. We will attempt to consider language and context when distinguishing casual comments from credible threats to public or personal safety, but GAIN will also act quickly to block accounts and may notify law enforcement when threats appear to be credible.

Fair Use Act Disclaimer
Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for “fair use” for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education and research.
Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favor of fair use. FAIR USE DEFINITION: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use Fair use is a doctrine in the United States copyright law that allows limited use of copyrighted material without requiring permission from the rights holders, such as for commentary, criticism, news reporting, research, teaching or scholarship. It provides for the legal, non-licensed citation or incorporation of copyrighted material in another author’s work under a four-factor balancing test. The term “fair use” originated in the United States. A similar principle, fair dealing, exists in some other common law jurisdictions. Civil law jurisdictions have other limitations and exceptions to copyright. U.S. COPYRIGHT OFFICE- FAIR USE DEFINITION http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html One of the rights accorded to the owner of copyright is the right to reproduce or to authorize others to reproduce the work in copies or phone records. This right is subject to certain limitations found in sections 107 through 118 of the copyright law (title 17, U.S. Code). One of the more important limitations is the doctrine of “fair use”. The doctrine of fair use has developed through a substantial number of court decisions over the years and has been codified in section 107 of the copyright law. Section 107 contains a list of the various purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered fair, such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Section 107 also sets out in four factors to be considered in determining whether or not a particular use is fair: The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for non-profit educational purposes The nature of the copyrighted work The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work The distinction between fair use and infringement may be unclear and not easily defined. There is no specific number of words, lines, or notes that may safely be taken without permission. Acknowledging the source of the copyrighted material does not substitute for obtaining permission. The 1961 Report of the Register of Copyrights on the General Revision of the U.S. Copyright Law cites examples of activities that courts have regarded as fair use: “quotation of excerpts in a review or criticism for purposes of illustration or comment; quotation of short passages in a scholarly or technical work, for illustration or clarification of the author’s observations; use in a parody of some of the content of the work parodied; summary of an address or article, with brief quotations, in a news report; reproduction by a library of a portion of a work to replace part of a damaged copy; reproduction by a teacher or student of a small part of a work to illustrate a lesson; reproduction of a work in legislative or judicial proceedings or reports; incidental and fortuitous reproduction, in a newsreel or broadcast, of a work located in the scene of an event being reported.” Copyright protects the particular way an author has expressed himself. It does not extend to any ideas, systems, or factual information conveyed in the work.

Fair Trading Act
Content kindly supplied by consumer.org.nz.
The Fair Trading Act 1986 is one of the cornerstones of consumer law. It protects you against being misled or treated unfairly by traders or shops.
The Fair Trading Act applies to everyone in trade. As well as traders and shops, the Act covers government agencies and state-owned enterprises. Most of the Act does not cover private sales.
The Fair Trading Act applies to online auctions when you buy from a professional trader - but does not apply when you buy from a private, "one-off" seller. See our guide to online auctions and the law for more information.
The difference between the Fair Trading Act (FTA) and the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA) is that, in general, the FTA covers claims about products and services prior to sale and the CGA covers the quality of those products and services after they have been bought.
Your rights under the Fair Trading Act:
Misleading or deceptive conduct
If you are told things by a shopkeeper that give you a false impression about goods you are buying, then you have been misled or deceived. For example, if you discover that bags advertised as leather are actually vinyl. Or if you buy faulty goods and the shopkeeper incorrectly tells you that you are not legally entitled to a refund, replacement or repair.
False representations
When information given to you about goods and services is not true, then a false claim has been made. For example, if you buy a shirt with a "Made in Italy" label and find it actually came from a factory in Korea.
The word "representations" covers any situation where a trader claims something about their product or services, either verbally or in writing. It can even cover cases where a trader doesn't say something. For example, neglecting to mention that prices exclude GST.
Unfair practices
Unfair practices are selling methods which mislead you. Unfair practices which are illegal under the Fair Trading Act include:
Making a complaint
A tribunal can award civil damages, which could include your getting compensation or your money back. But only the courts can impose fines.
