You are legally responsible for the Content you submit to the Service.

The contents of Careervid, such as designs, text, graphics, images, video, information, logos, button icons, software, audio files and other Careervid content, are protected under copyright, trademark and other laws. All Careervid content is the property of Careervid or its licensors.

User Content, Rights you Grant & License to Careervid/Other Users

You understand that all information, data, text, software, music, sound, photographs, graphics, video, advertisements, messages or other materials submitted, posted or displayed by you on or through Careervid ("User Content") is the sole responsibility of the person from which such User Content originated. You retain ownership rights to your User Content. Careervid claims no ownership or control over any User Content. However, we do require you to grant certain rights to Careervid and other users of the Service, as described below.

By providing User Content to the Service, you grant to Careervid a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable license to use that User Content (including to reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works, display and perform it) in connection with the Service and Careervid’s (and its successors and affiliates) business, including for the purpose of promoting and redistributing part or all of the Service. You also grant each other user of the Service a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to access your User Content through the Service, and to use that User Content, including to reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works, display, and perform it, only as enabled by a feature of the Service (such as video playback). This license does not grant any rights or permissions for a user to make use of your User Content independent of the Service. The licenses granted by you continue for a commercially reasonable period of time after you remove or delete your user content from the Service. You understand and agree, however, that Careervid may retain, but not display, distribute, or perform, server copies of your videos that have been removed or deleted.

Careervid reserves the right to refuse to accept, post, display or transmit any User Content in its sole discretion.

Careervid reserves the right to expel users and prevent their further access to Careervid and/or use of Careervid Services for violating the Terms or applicable laws, rules or regulations. Careervid may take any action with respect to User Content that it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion if it believes that such User Content could create liability for Careervid, damage Careervid’s brand or public image, or cause Careervid to lose Users or (in whole or in part) the services of its ISPs or other suppliers.

You also represent and warrant that you have the right to grant, or that the holder of any rights, including moral rights in such content has completely and effectively waived all such rights and validly and irrevocably granted to you the right to grant, the license stated above. If you post User Content in any public area of Careervid, you also permit any User to access, display, view, store and reproduce such User Content for personal use. Subject to the foregoing, the owner of such User Content placed on Careervid retains any and all rights that may exist in such User Content.

Careervid does not represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of User Content, derivative works from User Content, or any other communications posted by Users nor does Careervid endorse any opinions expressed by Users. You acknowledge that any reliance on material posted by other Users will be at your own risk.
