House
rules.

The desk reads everything. Membership applications, campaign briefs, withdrawal requests, support tickets — the editor reads each in person, with their full attention.

Decisions arrive in writing within two business days. We name the decision, name the reason, and name the path to disagree.

The desk is not an algorithm. There are no quotas, no metrics-driven cuts, no ranking the member cannot see.

Work commissioned through Nexus Club must be work the member would sign their name to. Pitches written in haste, briefs answered with template paragraphs, posts drafted by a tool without disclosure — these are not the work this club is for.

Advertising disclosure follows the law of the holder's jurisdiction. #ad, #sponsored, “in partnership with” — whichever the rule requires, plainly placed and never buried.

A campaign that has gone live cannot be undone, but it can be answered. If a brief drifts, write to the desk — there is a formal route in the disputes policy.

Member work remains the member's. The license granted to a brand is the license written into the brief; nothing more, nothing wider, nothing longer.

Members do not share other members' details — names, handles, application notes, payout figures, draft briefs, brand contracts — in press, in social, in any public domain. The quiet of the club is the protection of the member.

Disagreements between members travel through the desk, not through public posts. We answer.

Members who use the directory or the dispatches as a list to spam, recruit from, or sell into are removed.

Members may, at their discretion, speak about their own membership and their own work. They may not speak for the club.

Brands commissioning campaigns through Nexus Club agree to flat, stated payouts. Performance-tied retroactive cuts are not in scope.

Brand assets shared in a brief are seen by the assigned member and the desk only. They are not shared further.

A brand that asks a member to misrepresent a relationship — to publish without disclosure, to delete a disclosure, to backdate a campaign — terminates its standing. We will say this in writing.

Loss of standing follows a written notice and a fair window to answer. Suspension is the first step. Expulsion is the last and is rare.

Conduct prejudicial to the reputation and character of the club, or to the safety of any member, is grounds for review. The desk decides on the record. Appeal is open.

A member who leaves — voluntarily, or after a finding — keeps their work. Their authorization to publish through Nexus Club ends; everything they made is theirs.
