The Service supports the submission by you and other users of content, which may include pictures, video, sound, music, text, graphics or other communications ("User Submissions").

From time to time, CINEMA may offer contests, which require User Submissions for entry. Your submissions of content may be published by CINEMA for public viewing on or through the Services, without any right to confidentiality. CINEMA may use your submissions for promotion and advertising of CINEMA Services with various vendors.

You agree to grant CINEMA a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable, right to use, copy, distribute, prepare derivative works of, edit, display perform and transmit the User Submissions in connection with the Website and Service and CINEMA's (and its successor's) business, including without limitation for promoting and redistributing part or all of the Website and/or the Service (and derivative works of either) in any media formats and through any media channels. You also grant each user of the Website and/or the Service, the right to access your User Submissions through the Website and/or the Service, subject to any limitations inherent to the Website and/or Service, the Terms and Conditions and the Privacy Policy.

Please note that, while you retain ownership of your Submissions, any template or layout in which you arrange or organize such Submissions through tools and features made available through CINEMA are not proprietary to you, and can be used by CINEMA and others for any purposes.
