Author Publishing Agreement

Last Updated: June 2026

This Author Publishing Agreement is a legally binding contract between you (the "Author") and AFRIKDP. By uploading and publishing content on our platform, you agree to the following terms.

1. Copyright & Ownership

You retain 100% of your copyright. AFRIKDP does not claim ownership of your intellectual property. You are entirely free to publish, sell, or distribute your work on any other platforms simultaneously.

2. Grant of License

By publishing a digital book on AFRIKDP, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to:

• Host, store, and display your digital files securely on our servers.
• Distribute, sell, and deliver your content to users who purchase it.
• Use your book cover, title, description, and author name for promotional and marketing purposes.

3. Pricing & Distribution

You have sole discretion over the pricing of your work. You may offer your work for free, set a fixed price, or utilize our "Pay What You Want" model. AFRIKDP will collect payments on your behalf and distribute your royalties according to our Royalty & Withdrawal Policy.

4. Author Warranties & Representations

By uploading content, you guarantee that:

• You are the sole creator and copyright holder of the work, or you possess the explicit legal right to distribute it.
• Your work does not plagiarize or infringe upon the intellectual property rights of any third party.
• Your work does not contain illegal material, hate speech, or content that violates our Acceptable Use policies.

5. Moderation & Removal

AFRIKDP reserves the right to review, reject, or remove any content at any time, with or without notice, if we determine it violates this Agreement, our Community Guidelines, or poses a legal risk to the platform.

6. Termination

You may terminate this Agreement at any time by deleting your books from the platform and closing your account. Upon deletion, AFRIKDP will cease selling your work, though users who previously purchased your book will retain access to their downloaded copies.
