promotions on any page of any website or application that only contains Content from the

Service or where Content from the Service is the primary basis for such sales (for example,

selling ads on a webpage where Planet Theta content is the main draw for users visiting

the application or website page or pages).

Content on the Service

The content on the Service includes videos, audio (for example music and other sounds), graphics,

photos, text (such as comments and scripts), branding (including trade names, trademarks, service

marks, or logos), interactive features, software, virtual reality features, virtual reality areas, metrics, and

other materials whether provided by you, Planet Theta or a third-party (collectively, “Content”).

Content is the responsibility of the person or entity that provides it to the Service. Planet Theta is under

no obligation to host or serve Content. If you see any Content you believe does not comply with this

Agreement, you can report it to us.

Uploading Content

With the Planet Theta application, you may be able to upload Content to the Service. You may NOT use

your Content to promote your business or artistic enterprise. If you choose to upload Content, you must

not submit to the Service any Content that does not comply with this Agreement or the law. For

example, the Content you submit must not include third-party intellectual property (such as copyrighted

material) unless you have permission from that party or are otherwise legally entitled to do so. You are

legally responsible for the Content you submit to the Service. We may use automated systems that

analyze your Content to help detect infringement and abuse, such as spam, malware, and illegal

content.

Rights you Grant

You retain ownership rights in your Content. However, we do require you to grant certain rights to

Planet Theta and other users of the Service, as described below.

License to Planet Theta

By providing Content to the Service, you grant to Planet Theta a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free,

sublicensable and transferable license to use that Content (including to reproduce, distribute, prepare

derivative works, display and perform it) in connection with the Service and Planet Theta’s (and its

successors; and Affiliates) business, including for the purpose of promoting and redistributing part or all

of the Service.

License to Other Users

You also grant each other user of the Service a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to access

your Content through the Service, and to use that 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, embeds, using an avatar or virtual reality area or feature). For clarity, this license does not

grant any rights or permissions for a user to make use of your Content independent of the Service.

Duration of License

The licenses granted by you continue for a commercially reasonable period of time after you remove or

delete your Content from the Service. You understand and agree, however, that Planet Theta may retain

copies of your content that have been removed or deleted. 

Right to Monetize

You grant to Planet Theta the right to monetize your Content on the Service (and such monetization may

include displaying ads on or within Content or charging users a fee for access). This Agreement does not

entitle you to any payments.

Removing Your Content

You may remove your Content from the Service at any time. You also have the option to make a copy of

your Content before removing it. You must remove your Content if you no longer have the rights

required by these terms.

Removal of Content by Planet Theta

If any of your Content (1) is in breach of this Agreement or (2) may cause harm to Planet Theta, our

users, or third parties, we reserve the right to remove or take down some or all of such Content in our

discretion. We will notify you with the reason for our action unless we reasonably believe that to do so:

(a) would breach the law or the direction of a legal enforcement authority or would otherwise risk legal

liability for Planet Theta or our Affiliates; (b) would compromise an investigation or the integrity or

operation of the Service; or (c) would cause harm to any user, other third party, Planet Theta or our

Affiliates.

Community Guidelines Strikes

Planet Theta operates a system of “strikes” in respect of Content that violates the Planet Theta

Community Guidelines. Each strike comes with varying restrictions and may result in the permanent

removal of your content and/or user access from Planet Theta. If you believe that a strike has been

issued in error, you may appeal by contacting us on our support or contact pages.

If your content and/or user access has been restricted due to a strike, you must not use another channel

to circumvent these restrictions. Violation of this prohibition is a material breach of this Agreement and

Planet Theta reserves the right to terminate your Planet Theta account or your access to all or part of

the Service.

Copyright Protection

If you believe your copyright has been infringed on the Service, please send us a notice.

We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement as quickly as possible and we take such notices

very seriously. Planet Theta’s policies provide for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of

repeat infringers’ access to the Service.

Account Suspension & Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time and may use the Planet Theta applications to delete your

own account.

Terminations and Suspensions by Planet Theta

Planet Theta reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account or your access to all or part of the

Service if (a) you materially or repeatedly breach this Agreement; (b) we are required to do so to comply

with a legal requirement or a court order; or (c) we reasonably believe that there has been conduct that

creates (or could create) liability or harm to any user, other third party, Planet Theta or our Affiliates.

Notice for Termination or Suspension

We will notify you with the reason for termination or suspension by Planet Theta unless we reasonably

believe that to do so: (a) would violate the law or the direction of a legal enforcement authority; (b)

would compromise an investigation; (c) would compromise the integrity, operation or security of the

Service; or (d) would cause harm to any user, other third party, Planet Theta or our Affiliates.

Downloadable Software

When the Service requires or includes downloadable software (such as the Planet Theta applications),

unless that software is governed by additional terms which provide a license, Planet Theta gives you a

personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable and non-exclusive license to use the software

provided to you by Planet Theta as part of the Service. This license is for the sole purpose of enabling you to

use and enjoy the benefit of the Service as provided by Planet Theta, in the manner permitted by this

Agreement. You are not allowed to copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the software, or to

reverse-engineer or attempt to extract the source code of that software, unless laws prohibit these

restrictions or you have Planet Theta’s written permission.

are for illustrative purposes.

be in the Seattle, WA area, to be determined by WAMS in accordance with the Washington Arbitration

arbitrator’s decision shall be final and legally binding and judgment may be entered thereon.

Each party shall be responsible for its share of the arbitration fees in accordance with the applicable

Rules of Arbitration. In the event a party fails to proceed with arbitration, unsuccessfully challenges the

arbitrator’s award, or fails to comply with the arbitrator’s award, the other party is entitled to costs of

suit, including a reasonable attorney’s fee for having to compel arbitration or defend or enforce the
