Bounty Payments to the Bounty Hunter:
The Bounty Hunter agrees and understands that not all Bounty Programs offer Bounty. It is the responsibility of the Bounty Hunter to carefully read the Program Policy and check the details of the Bounty before participating in the Bounty Program. The decision to award a Bounty and the quantum of the Bounty is completely at the discretion of the Customer and the Bounty payment is subject to the following:
- All payments will be made in Indian Rupees and will be subject to tax deductions as per applicable local laws and regulations.
- You will ensure that your employment status does not restrict you or otherwise affect your eligibility from participating on the Bounty Program and accepting Bounty.
- If you are a child, your Bounty will be paid only into the accounts of your parent or guardian and will be subject to the completion of the KYC process by them. This is because we are morally and legally restricted from collecting personal information from a child and we endevour to obtain verifiable parental consent at each stage where interaction with a child is required.

Once the Bounty has been assigned, if the Bounty Hunter wishes to publish about their achievement, they must abide by the rules of disclosure that the Customer sets forth (hidden company name, hidden asset name, hidden bounty amount etc.).
