What Counts as User Generated Content
User Generated Content (UGC) is any material users submit to Listifys, including listing titles, descriptions, images, videos, audio, profile information, reviews, Q&A, messages, and comments.
1.1Ownership
You retain ownership of UGC you create, subject to licenses you grant below and rights of others (such as copyright or trademark holders). Listifys does not claim ownership of your original photos or text.
1.2Your Responsibility
You are solely responsible for UGC you post and its legality. You represent that you have all rights necessary to publish it and that it does not violate law, third-party rights, or Listifys policies.
License to Listifys
2.1Grant of License
By posting UGC, you grant Listifys a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, adapt for technical formatting, display, distribute, and promote your content in connection with operating and marketing the marketplace.
2.2Duration
The license continues while your content is displayed and for a reasonable period thereafter for backups, dispute resolution, and legal compliance. Deleted content is removed from public surfaces within commercially reasonable timeframes, subject to our Data Retention Policy.
