Submitting Content
As used in these Terms and Conditions, “User Content” is defined as any content that a user uploads, submits, makes available, or otherwise provides to the Website. Users retain their ownership and/or other applicable rights in User Content. Additionally, users retain ownership of all intellectual property submitted by the user to the Website. The Site Manager and/or applicable third parties retain ownership and/or other applicable rights in all content excluding User Content, and we do not claim ownership in any User Content.
However, by submitting User Content to the Website, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable right and license to use, host, store, cache, reproduce, publish, display (publicly or otherwise), perform (publicly or otherwise), distribute, transmit, modify, adapt (including in order to conform to the requirements of any networks, devices, services or media through which the Website is available), translate and create derivative works of such User Content. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of allowing us to operate the Website in accordance with its functionality, improve the Website and promote the Website, such as by using User Content in promotional or advertising materials for the Website, including but not limited to, social media accounts for the Website. The reference in this license to creating derivative works is not intended to give us a right to make substantive editorial changes or derivations.
By providing User Content to the Website, you further represent and warrant that you own all rights to such content and that such content does not infringe upon or otherwise violate the rights of any third party. You acknowledge that all User Content on the Website is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such content originated. You, and not the Site Manager, are entirely responsible for all User Content that you submit, upload or otherwise make available via the Website. We do not control the User Content submitted to the Website and do not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of such User Content. Under no circumstances are we liable in any way for any User Content, including any errors or omissions in any User Content or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any User Content posted, submitted, uploaded or otherwise made available via the Website. You agree that you must evaluate and bear all risks associated with the use of any User Content, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of such User Content.
You acknowledge that the Site Manager and its designees shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as otherwise required by law), in its sole discretion, to pre-screen, refuse or remove any User Content that is available on the Website. Without limiting the foregoing, the Site Manager and its designees shall have the right to remove any User Content that violates these Terms and Conditions, infringes the rights of any third parties or is otherwise objectionable.
You acknowledge and agree that we may access, preserve and disclose User Content if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such access, preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (i) comply with legal process; (ii) enforce these Terms and Conditions; (iii) respond to any claims that any User Content violates the rights of third parties; (iv) respond to your requests; or (v) protect the rights, property or personal safety of the Site Manager, the Website’s users or the public.

However, you acknowledge and agree that removed User Content may remain in caches or backups for a reasonable period of time. You also acknowledge and agree that copies of or references to the User Content may not be entirely removed.
