Q: Please clarify your terms...

What protections exist to ensure you aren't sharing our assets with unauthorized users?

Your terms grant broad and extensive rights to use AND transfer the content we upload, including potentially far-reaching usage. These terms could allow unauthorized users to use our images on their own apps or websites without the need for additional permissions, as long as it aligns with the functionality of the site.

Here are the terms I'm referring to specifically:

When you upload or post content to our site, you grant us the following rights to use that content:
* a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable licence to use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, and perform that user-generated content in connection with the service provided by the website and across different media including to promote the site or the service forever;
* a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable licence for other users, partners or advertisers to use the content in accordance with the functionality of the site.

~~~ QUESTIONS ~~~

1. What does the term ‘transferable license’ entail within the context of your app? Does it allow for my content to be shared beyond the users I initially authorize?

2. Will I be notified if my content is accessed or shared beyond the users I have authorized? Is there an audit trail feature to track this?

3. Could you further define "to use the content in accordance with the functionality of the site"? How do I know another user can't access my images/assets and start using them on their own app or website?

A: Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention.

We understand the importance of safeguarding your content and ensuring it is used appropriately. We have recently updated our Terms of Service to better address these issues and clarify our policies. Unfortunately, the updated version was not correctly linked on our website, but this has now been corrected.

To clarify briefly, the new Terms of Service make it clear that any content you upload is considered confidential and proprietary. The rights you grant us are solely to provide you with the services you need, such as storage and document handling. We do not share your content with unauthorized users, and any sharing functionalities require your explicit action.

You can review the updated terms here https://quaaant.com/terms-and-conditions-2/.

If you have any further questions or need additional information, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Would like a detailed answer on this too. The terms are very concerning for the nature of the product
