Yes. You, understand correctly. A license of your copyright is not the same as a *transfer* of your copyright. You can “keep” your copyright while giving a very broad license to a party at the same time. > Is that what the ToS is saying? Because first it says: "You > represent and warrant that User Content you transmit or submit > is original to you and that *you exclusively own the rights to > such content, including the right to grant all of the rights and > licenses in these Terms* without Bertheussen IT incurring any > third party obligations or liability arising out of its exercise > of such rights and licenses." Yes. To “represent and warrant” is to make a statement about facts, i.e. how things are. That sentence means you are telling them that you are the copyright holder (basically) and thus you are in the position to grant such a license, i.e. you are not infringing on somebody else’s copyright. > And then: "You hereby *grant to Bertheussen IT a worldwide, > irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, fully > paid-up and royalty-free license*, (with the right to > sublicense), to use, copy, adapt, modify, distribute, license, > sell, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform, transmit, > stream, broadcast and otherwise exploit User Content you > transmit or submit and all derivative works." > > Or did you mean something else? I don’t understand what you’re asking with your question, sorry. -- Hugo Roy Project Lead, Terms of Service; Didn't Read <www.tosdr.org> Please use cryptography for email: see https://emailselfdefense.fsf.org/en/ Merci d’utiliser la cryptographie pour l’email : voir https://emailselfdefense.fsf.org/fr/
