8. Content, Intellectual Property and Confidentiality
8.1 User Ownership
As between SKYWYE and a User, the User retains ownership of User Content, subject to licenses granted in these Terms and any Collaboration Agreement. Each User represents that it owns or has all rights necessary to upload, share, license, and use its User Content.
8.2 Campaign Usage Rights
Ownership, license scope, editing rights, territories, platforms, duration, paid-media rights, exclusivity, whitelisting, sublicensing, and other usage terms must be stated in the Collaboration Agreement. A Brand may not use, edit, resell, sublicense, distribute, or exploit Deliverables beyond those agreed rights. Usage rights conditioned on payment do not become effective until the required payment is completed.
8.3 Portfolio Rights
Unless the Collaboration Agreement states that the work is confidential, exclusive, embargoed, or subject to another restriction, a Creator may display publicly released completed work in a personal portfolio and identify the Brand after the Campaign becomes public. A Creator may not disclose confidential campaign information or unpublished launches.
8.4 License to SKYWYE and Promotional Rights
You grant SKYWYE a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, format, display, transmit, and otherwise use User Content as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, support, and improve the Platform. Where your profile, Brand name, logo, public Campaign, or publicly released Deliverable is visible on the Platform, you also permit SKYWYE to display it in Platform directories and ordinary marketplace promotion.
8.5 Confidentiality
“Confidential Information” includes non-public briefs, pricing, product launches, prototypes, marketing plans, customer information, trade secrets, platform credentials, and other information that a reasonable person would understand to be confidential. The receiving User must use Confidential Information only for the relevant Campaign, protect it with reasonable care, and disclose it only to authorized persons who are bound by appropriate confidentiality duties.
8.6 Copyright and Intellectual Property Complaints
SKYWYE may remove or restrict allegedly infringing content and may terminate repeat infringers. A rights holder may submit a notice identifying the protected work, the allegedly infringing material, contact information, a good-faith statement, and a statement of accuracy and authority.
