Independent Contractor Agreement
You are joining Quiet Lane Media as an independent contractor, not an employee. Quiet Lane Media manages platforms and operations; you control your participation.
You are responsible for your own taxes and personal obligations. This is not an employment relationship and includes no guaranteed income, benefits, or payroll.
Platform Access & Business Email Management
Quiet Lane Media uses company-managed email accounts to ensure security, consistency, posting control, messaging, and account recovery.
This does not transfer ownership of your identity or likeness. You retain full ownership of yourself at all times.
Content & Likeness License Agreement
You grant Quiet Lane Media permission to post and monetize approved content. You retain ownership of your identity and likeness at all times.
This license applies only to approved feet-only content submitted under this agreement and does not extend to any other personal content.
Commission & Payment Terms
Earnings are shared according to the commission structure agreed upon. Payments are calculated from net revenue after platform fees, refunds, or chargebacks are deducted.
Commission Split (Model / QLM): As disclosed during your onboarding call.
Upon approval, you will be issued a Relay Financial debit card linked to a dedicated sub-account created and maintained by Quiet Lane Media LLC in your name. Your weekly earnings will be deposited directly into that account. You are solely responsible for reporting and paying any taxes on income received as an independent contractor.
Content Rules & Boundaries Policy
Only feet-only content is permitted under this agreement. Content must never include:
- Face, nudity, or identifying features
- Tattoos, birthmarks, or distinguishing marks

Age Verification & Identity Attestation
