Stump Content; Owners and Contributors.

Your User Contributions may include audio content, video content, images, text, and other content that you create, store, and publish using tools provided by the Platform, including the Platform’s tools for multi-party podcast creation (collectively, “Stump Content”).  Your Stump Content may include only your contributions, or may include the contributions of one or several other users of the Platform that you request, authorize, allow, or otherwise invite to participate in the creation of your Stump Content.  Each Stump Content recording or creation session is associated with one primary user that initiates the session and that may invite other users to contribute (a “Content Owner”), and may also be associated with one or more secondary users that join the session and make contributions to the Stump Content (each a “Content Contributor”).

As a Content Contributor, you hereby assign all right, title, and interest in all of your contributions to Stump Content during a session, including any and all intellectual property rights therein, to the corresponding Content Owner for that session (the “Owner Assignment”).

As a Content Owner, you hereby grant to Company a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, fully paid up, royalty free, sublicensable to multiple tiers, right to use, reproduce, modify, perform, display, distribute, and otherwise disclose to third parties the Stump Content for any purpose, including the provision of the Platform to all users, whether registered or not, through the Platform itself and on other platforms which may link to the Platform (the “Content License”).

As a Content Owner, you agree that at all times during your use of the Platform you will retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Stump Content, and shall only assign or transfer any rights to the Stump Content to (i) another Content Contributor for that Stump Content, and (ii) using the content transfer tools or processes provided on the Platform.  In the event that you transfer your Stump Content in the allowed manner, or the Stump Content is otherwise transferred to a Content Contributor in accordance with these Terms of Use (in each case, a “Content Transfer”), the recipient shall become the Content Owner and you shall become a Content Contributor.  Upon the occurrence of a Content Transfer, you hereby assign all right, title, and interest in and to the affected Stump Content to such recipient Content Contributor.

As a Content Owner, if your account is disabled, terminated, or otherwise becomes inactive, or any of your Stump Content is disabled, terminated, or otherwise becomes inactive, whether by your action or as a result of your violation of these Terms of Use, your affected Stump Content may remain published and may continue be stored on the Platform for a period of time before it is permanently removed (prior to such permanent removal, “Orphaned Content”).  Company may provide tools or processes that allow for a Content Contributor to claim Orphaned Content and effect a Content Transfer of that Orphaned Content.  You agree that Company may, in its sole discretion and for any reason, approve or deny any Content Transfer.

You specifically and expressly consent to the storage, processing, and use of your contributions to the Stump Content, including any portions of the Stump Content that may personally identify you, including any text, metadata, audio descriptions or voice recordings, image or video likeness, or any other part of the Stump Content that may directly or indirectly identify you.

You acknowledge and agree that the Owner Assignment and Content License described above are critical aspects of the Platform, and that the copyrights and other rights to the Stump Content granted thereby are valuable intellectual property rights that you are granting in exchange for your use of the Platform.  To the extent that the Stump Content displays, describes, or otherwise includes your personal information, including your name, description, likeness, voice, or other identifiable characteristics, you acknowledge that such characteristics are not readily separable from the granted intellectual property rights, and that any disputes related to the Stump Content and your privacy must be resolved with the Content Owner.

If you wish to maintain complete control of your personally identifiable information, your options are to not use the Platform, or to ensure that the Stump Content does not include your name, description, likeness, voice, or other identifiable characteristics.

Subscribing to the Platform

Based upon your selections and choices made when creating and using your account, your account will be configured with certain information, subscriptions, features, or other characteristics (“Account Settings”).  When configuring your Account Settings, you may have the option to subscribe to certain paid features of the Platform, which may include features, tools, functions, areas, or other portions or uses of the Platform (“Subscription Features”).

Subject to these Terms of Use, Subscription Features will be provided to you for the period of time that you have selected and configured when configuring your Account Settings (the “Subscription Period”), and you will be charged certain fees based on the selected Subscription Features and Subscription Periods (“Subscription Fees”).  The Subscription Fees that will be charged to you and the dates that you will incur such charges may be reviewed in your Account Settings.  You may cancel any Subscription Feature at any time by changing your Account Settings, with such changing taking effect after the end of the then current Subscription Period, at which time you will no longer have access to the Subscription Feature.

Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these Terms of Use, any price changes or changes to your Subscription Fees will take effect following notice to you, and you will have the option to cancel the affected Subscription Feature prior to incurring any subsequent Subscription Fees.

All Subscription Fees are non-refundable once charged to you.  You acknowledge that Company makes no guarantee of your satisfaction, enjoyment, or use of your Subscription Features.  You acknowledge that your only remedy for dissatisfaction with any Subscription Feature is cancelation of that Subscription Feature.
