User Submission Agreement

Please read this User Submission Agreement carefully because it is a part of the Terms of Use Agreement and represents your legally binding agreement with us ("Agreement") regarding your submission (and our display and distribution) of content to the Site via certain technologies, functionality and/or features we make available to you so you can upload and post content for display via and onto the Site (collectively, the "User Material Submission Features"). Unless defined separately, terms used in this Agreement are defined in our Terms of Use Agreement.

Once you submit User Material (as defined below in Section 1), or by using or attempting to use the User Material Submission Features, you are signifying and demonstrating your agreement with and acceptance of all terms and conditions of this Agreement as well as the terms and conditions contained in the Terms of Use Agreement that govern your legal and contractual relationship with Sports Gaming Ltd.

We retain the right to change the terms and conditions of this Agreement at any time as described by our Terms of Use Agreement. If you do not agree with all the terms and conditions of this Agreement at any time, including, without limitation, those times when we make changes to the Termas of Use Agreement, you should not use, attempt to use and immediately stop your use of, the User Material Submission Features, because if you do any of these things you are agreeing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any changes we have made.

IMPORTANT NOTE: You must meet the Age Requirements in Section 2 of this Agreement and each and every time you submit or attempt to submit User Material to the site you will be asked to confirm your compliance.

1. Submitting User Material.

The term "User Material" means and refers to any and all content you submit for posting or create by using Applications on the Site using any of the User Material Submission Features, including, without limitation, still photographs, writings, messages, user feedback, data, comments, suggestions, information, text, data, software, images, files, spoken statements, music, audio, video, video recordings, audio-visual works and recordings, slides, portraits, animated and/or motion pictures, caricatures, likenesses, vocal or other sounds, sound recordings, voices, voice reproductions, computer graphics and visual effects, as well as any accompanying documentation, packaging or other materials, tangible or intangible, and to all derivative works, translations, adaptations or variations of same, regardless of the tangible medium, broadcast medium, format or form, now known or hereinafter developed or discovered, and regardless of where produced, on location, in a studio or elsewhere, in black-and-white or in color, alone or in conjunction with other work, characters, real or imaginary, in any part of the world. User Material is also considered a "Posting", as such term defined in the Terms of Use Agreement, and therefore, all terms and conditions contained within the section of the Terms of Use Agreement "Postings" shall apply to all User Material you submit or create on the Site pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement for Posting to the Site. User Material also includes games submitted via the "Submit a Game" link on the Site. Each time you create, upload or submit User Material (or if you attempt to do so) you will be confirming your acceptance of, and agreement to be bound by, all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Instructions for uploading User Material can be found on the web page for the upload of User Material. To be considered for posting and display to the public, User Material must meet all the specifications and requirements relating to formatting, compatibility, operating characteristics and submission which can also be found on the Site's web page for the upload of User Material. In order to submit User Material, you will also need to meet our Age Requirements (see Section 2 below). When you submit User Material you may also be asked to provide some information about you and your submission. This may include such things as descriptive titles, information about the User Material, length, your location and/or similar information. When submitting User Material, you are also agreeing that you understand that the term "User Material" also includes, without limitation, and refers to all of the information you submit or we may receive that is related to your submission. Always keep a copy of anything you send because we are not responsible for lost, damaged, misdirected, unusable or unreadable User Material.
