Privacy Policy and Terms of Use for User-Generated Content

We love your User Content and believe others will benefit from seeing it on our websites, social media channels, retailers’ websites, and other forms of media. As you consider allowing Kegelbell to use your User Content, we want to ensure you know exactly how we intend to use it. "User Content" refers to your comments, posts, photos, videos, materials, or other user-generated content or information.

By uploading your content on our page and providing your permission, you affirm that you alone created or own the User Content and no one else has any rights to it or could claim they own it or that it infringes on the rights of others. Likewise, if there are people in the User Content other than yourself, you affirm they are over 18 and know you are giving us permission to use the User Content and have consented to it being used by Kegelbell pursuant to this license.

You will continue to own the User Content. You are giving Kegelbell and its affiliates a non-exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide, transferable, royalty-free, perpetual, unrestricted, sublicensable right to use, market, and promote your User Content in any manner or media now known or later developed, for any purpose. This includes without limitation the rights to reproduce, display, publish, perform, translate, transmit, broadcast, modify, adapt, alter, distribute, present, commercialize, create derivative works from your User Content, and exercise all intellectual property and other rights with respect to your User Content, without any compensation or notice to you or any approval from you, with or without your name (whether your legal name or your username on the applicable platform), including, without limitation, in advertising and promotion of Kegelbell and its products and/or services. 

Also, if you posted your User Content with your real name, username, caption, location information, or other identifying information, you agree we can use that information with your User Content. The User Content and other information may be used for advertising and promotional purposes, and Kegelbell may use the User Content either alone or in conjunction with sketches, cartoons, captions, films, artwork, textual matter, materials written by us or others, or other photographs. You understand that you won’t have the right to approve how we use your User Content. While Kegelbell will make commercially reasonable efforts to give you credit for your User Content if Kegelbell uses it, you agree that such credit is not mandatory, and your permission for us to use your User Content is not contingent upon such credit being given or any fees being paid to you.

You also represent and warrant to Kegelbell as follows: that your User Content is your own original work and that you have the right to grant the rights and permissions set forth in these Terms; you have obtained all necessary licenses and permissions from all applicable third parties required for the submission of the User Content and use as permitted in these Terms; you will comply with all FTC disclosure requirements and guidelines relating to your User Content; the posting and/or display and/or other permitted use of your User Content by Kegelbell or those deriving rights through Kegelbell will not violate any provision of any applicable law or regulation, or in any way infringe or violate the rights of any third parties, including but not limited to copyright and other intellectual property, privacy, or publicity rights; you waive any and all moral rights that exist in your User Content and any derivative works made therefrom.

You agree that your User Content created, submitted, or otherwise made available by you to Kegelbell or for Kegelbell will not: be abusive, threatening, or harassing towards others; include any infringing, obscene, defamatory, slanderous, libelous, offensive, or illegal content (including without limitation content which violates another person’s right of privacy); include commercial or political solicitations or messages; include any content designed to injure people or property (including without limitation viruses); impersonate others or be misleading as to your identity or the source of your User Content; suggest that you or your User Content is sponsored or endorsed by Kegelbell (unless it is); otherwise violate these Terms.

You also understand that by granting us permission to use your User Content, you are at least 18 years of age and release Kegelbell and its affiliates, their employees and officers, and any third-party services that use your User Content from any and all claims, actions, or proceedings of any kind, and from any and all damages, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses relating to or arising out of the use of your User Content as contemplated by this license.
