Rights in Your Content. Our Site lets users submit content as well – i.e. SQL snippets, challenges or “submissions”. When you submit content you are not granting any licence to other users, but only granting a licence to us as necessary to host it on the Site.

This licence is non-exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free and freely capable of sub-licence or transfer, and will entitle us to use, copy, modify, distribute, publish and display Your Content in any media (printed or electronic) for the purposes of delivering our services and our Site in accordance with our Terms. If your account is closed, then we may cease to publish Your Content or not at our election. We may also retain a copy for record-keeping purposes.

We do not accept any responsibility for enforcing those licences or for policing any infringements by our users of other users’ content. You acknowledge and accept that it is your responsibility to protect and enforce Your Content as you see fit. Because we are not a party to any licence granted by you to another user, any remedies that either you or the user might have under that licence are against each other, not against us.

Although we may act to remove content where possible (and where we have been notified of any problem), we are not liable for it or for any use of it.
Collaboration is your responsibility. If you choose to collaborate with other users, then it is your responsibility to ensure that you understand the risks and responsibilities in doing so. If you and another user end up in dispute in relation to Your Content or his or her content, then it will be your responsibility to resolve that dispute, and we will not have any responsibility or liability to you in relation to that dispute or in relation to any misuse by collaborators of each other’s content.

However, nothing in our relationship with you guarantees your continued use of our Site.
Effect of Termination. Termination of the contract between you and us will not affect any rights or remedies of the parties in existence at the time of termination. For instance, if at the time of termination one of us owes the other any sums, then they will still be owed. Any of the Terms which expressly or impliedly survive termination will continue in force. Any termination of your account may result in the deletion of Your Content. We do not guarantee that Your Content will be recoverable after termination or account closure.
