TERMS OF SERVICE
Do I have to grant any licenses to the site or to other users?
Anything you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through or to the Site is your “User Submission.” Some User Submissions may be viewable by other users. In order to display your User Submissions on the Site, and to allow other users to enjoy them (where applicable), you grant us and our licensees certain rights in those User Submissions. Please note that all of the following licenses are subject to our Privacy Policy to the extent they relate to User Submissions that are also your personally-identifiable information.
You understand that the following requirements apply to your User Submissions: a) you will not use any electronic communication feature of the Site for any purpose that is unlawful, tortious, abusive, intrusive on another’s privacy, harassing, libelous, defamatory, embarrassing, obscene, threatening, hateful, invasive of the privacy of another person, abusive, racist, infringing, pornographic, violent or otherwise objectionable or inappropriate as determined; (b) you will not upload, post, reproduce, or distribute any information, software, or other material protected by copyright or any other intellectual property right (as well as rights of publicity and privacy) without first obtaining the permission of the owner of such rights; (c) you will not collect, store, or post any content that (i) contains personal information about other users or any individual, (ii) violates the privacy/publicity of any other individual or entity, or (ii) anything that you are under a contractual obligation to keep private or confidential; (d) you will not use the Site for any commercial purpose not expressly approved in writing; (e) you will not upload, post, email, or otherwise transmit any advertising or promotional materials or any other form of solicitation or unauthorized communication; (f) you will not impersonate any person or organization, including without limitation, the personnel of it, or misrepresent an affiliation with another person or organization; and (g) you will not upload, post, email, or otherwise transmit any material that contains viruses or any other computer code, files, or programs which might interrupt, limit, or interfere with the functionality of the Site, any computer software or hardware, or telecommunications equipment.
For all User Submissions, you hereby grant it a sublicensable, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, fully-paid, royalty free license to use, translate, modify, reproduce, publicly perform or display, and distribute User Submissions, in any and all media now known or hereafter developed without the need to seek any third party permission. This license includes, without limitation, the right to host, index, cache, distribute, and tag any User Submissions, edit and revise any User Submissions (without notice), as well as the right to sublicense User Submission to third parties. This is a license only – your ownership in User Submissions is not affected.
