Rights and Ownership

You own the rights to your content: You retain your rights to any content you submit, post, or display on or through the Wevolver Platform.

For us to be able to display your content across our various surfaces (i.e., mobile, web), you need to grant us a license:

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, by submitting, posting, or displaying content on or through the Wevolver Platform, you grant Wevolver a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, fully paid, and sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, publicly perform and display your content and any name, username, or likeness provided in connection with your content in all media formats and distribution methods now known or later developed on the Wevolver Platform.

Wevolver needs this license because you own your content, and Wevolver, therefore, can’t display it without your permission.

This type of license is needed to distribute your content across our Wevolver Platform. For example, you post content on Wevolver. It is reproduced as versions on both our web and mobile sites and distributed to multiple places within Wevolver, such as the homepage or reading lists.A modification might be that we show a snippet of your work (and not the full post) in a preview, with attribution to you. A derivative work might be a list of top authors or quotes on Wevolver that uses portions of your content, again with full attribution to you. This license applies to the Wevolver Platform only and does not grant us any permissions outside of the Wevolver Platform.

The Wevolver Platform is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. These Terms don’t grant you any right, title, or interest in the Wevolver Platform, other users’ content on the Wevolver Platform, or Wevolver trademarks, logos, or other brand features.

We may stop providing the Wevolver Platform or any of its features within our sole discretion. We also retain the right to create limits on use and storage and may remove or limit content distribution on the Wevolver Platform.

Help us make Wevolver better: Apart from the content you submit, post, or display on the Wevolver Platform, we welcome feedback, including any comments, ideas, and suggestions you have. Note that we may use this feedback for any purpose, at our sole discretion, without any obligation to you, and we may treat feedback as non-confidential.

Termination

You’re free to stop using our Platform at any time. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Wevolver Platform with or without notice.

Governing Law and Venue

These Terms and any dispute that arises between you and Wevolver will be governed by the law of The Netherlands.

Amendments

We may make changes to these Terms from time to time. If we make changes, we’ll provide you with notice of them by sending an email to the email address associated with your account, offering an in-product notification, or updating the date at the top of these Terms. If you don’t agree to amended Terms, you must stop using our Wevolver Platform.

Miscellaneous

Severability

If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. Wevolver’s failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Terms reflect the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, statements, and understandings of the parties. You agree that communications and transactions between us may be conducted electronically.
