You hereby grant us and our licensees, distributors, agents, representatives and other authorized users, a perpetual, non-exclusive, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free, sub-licensable and transferable (in whole or part) worldwide license under all copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, privacy and publicity rights and other intellectual property rights you own or control to use, reproduce, transmit, display, exhibit, distribute, index, comment on, modify, create derivative works based upon, perform and otherwise exploit such User Content, in whole or in part, in all media formats and channels now known or hereafter devised (including on the RDC Services and third party web sites) for any and all purposes, all without further notice to you, with or without attribution, and without the requirement of any permission from or payment to you or to any other person or entity (the “User Content License”).

By creating User Content, you represent and warrant that the User Content conform to the User Conduct guidelines set forth in these Terms and that you own or have the necessary rights, licenses, consents and permissions, without the need for any permission from or payment to any other person or entity, to exploit, and to authorize us to exploit, such User Content in all manners contemplated by these Terms (including the User Content License).

9. Right to Remove User Content or Block Access. RDC generally does not monitor, approve or have any control over any User Content. Nevertheless, RDC or its designees, at RDC’s discretion, without any obligation and without notice at any time, may screen, filter, restrict, block, move, refuse, disable access to, remove, or modify User Content that does not meet the conduct guidelines described in these Terms or is otherwise objectionable. RDC may also block your access to the RDC Services in the event that (a) you breach these Terms; (b) we are unable to verify or authenticate information you provide to RDC; (c) we believe that your actions may cause financial loss or legal liability for you, RDC users or us; or (d) we believe that blocking access is a reasonable business practice under the circumstances.

We do not guarantee that any content or information you share or access will not be removed, damaged, corrupted, lost, or unavailable. We recommend that you back up any User Content that you store or access using the RDC Services.

10. Third Party Content and Links. RDC may make available links to websites operated by third parties, including advertisers. Making available any link to a website does not imply endorsement by RDC of that website or the products or services available through that website; the link may be for your reference and convenience only. Products, services, and content offered through linked websites are subject to the terms and conditions made available by those respective websites, and the data collection practices of linked websites will be governed by the respective privacy policies of those websites, not by ours. Following links to any other websites or web-based services is at your own risk, and any claims you have with respect to products, services, or content accessed through linked websites are claims against third parties, not against RDC.

RDC also may post or otherwise provide access to websites, materials, or content of third parties (“Third Party Content”) as a service to those that might be interested in this information. RDC does not guarantee, endorse or adopt the accuracy, completeness, legality, or innocuousness of any Third Party Content. RDC is not responsible for updating or reviewing Third Party Content. You access and use Third Party Content at your own risk.

You agree that RDC is not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or accuracy, and does not warrant and will not have any liability or responsibility for any Third Party Content. You agree to not use any Third Party Content in a manner that would infringe or violate the rights of any other party and that RDC is in no way responsible for any such use by you.

11. Access to the RDC Services. You may use the RDC Services if and when it is available. Features may be unavailable or the experience may not be the same for every user at all times. RDC does not guarantee availability of any aspect of the RDC Services or any particular feature. We reserve the right to change, remove, delete, restrict or block access to, or stop providing all or any part of the RDC Services (including reducing available storage capacity, if any, and removing any of the content contained in the RDC Services) at any time without notice.

You agree that we may terminate your use of the RDC Services if we reasonably believe that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms, or violated the rights of RDC or any third party, or for any other reason with or without notice to you.

12. Limitation of Liability. YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT WILL RDC, OUR AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, SUPPLIERS, OR ADVERTISERS BE LIABLE FOR, AND YOU CANNOT RECOVER, ANY COSTS, DAMAGES AND EXPENSES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM LOST DATA OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) RESULTING FROM (a) THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE RDC SERVICES; (b) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES; (c) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (d) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE RDC SERVICES; OR (e) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE RDC SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT RDC IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. RDC WILL BE LIABLE TO YOU ONLY FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT OF ACTUAL DAMAGES INCURRED BY YOU, NOT TO EXCEED FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS ($50.00). THIS IS YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.

13. Indemnification. You agree to release, discharge, defend, indemnify and hold harmless RDC, its parents, subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees and agents, assigns, sponsors, licensors and suppliers from and against any claims, actions or demands, liabilities and settlements, including, without limitation, legal fees, related to or arising out of your use in any way of the RDC Services, including any User Content (defined below) that you provide and your violation of any of these Terms.
