Ownership

You retain full ownership of your copyrights, trademarks, and other intellectual property in your content. Nothing in this Agreement transfers ownership of your content to Wisdom Light.

04.

License Granted

You grant Wisdom Light a non-exclusive, worldwide, revocable, royalty-bearing or royalty-free (depending on Wisdom Light's current monetization model), sublicensable only where reasonably necessary to operate the service, license to host your content, stream your content to users, store and back up your content, display artwork and metadata, promote your content within the platform, include your content in playlists and recommendations, and create short excerpts or previews solely for promotional purposes.

07.

Content Standards

Content submitted to Wisdom Light must not infringe another person's copyright or trademark, contain unlawful or deceptive material, include malware or malicious code, impersonate another person or ministry, or misrepresent authorship or ownership.

09.

Promotional Use

You authorize Wisdom Light to use reasonable portions of your submitted content, artwork, name, biography, and approved promotional materials to advertise your content, promote Wisdom Light, and feature you in newsletters, social media, playlists, banners, and marketing campaigns.

10.

Royalties and Monetization

Where Wisdom Light does not currently operate a creator payment program, you acknowledge that uploads are made without royalty payments unless otherwise agreed in writing.

If Wisdom Light receives a credible copyright complaint regarding your content, we may temporarily disable access, request proof of ownership, remove the content, or suspend your Creator account while the matter is investigated. You agree to cooperate promptly in resolving ownership disputes.

13.

Account Suspension or Termination

Wisdom Light may suspend or terminate your Creator account if you upload infringing content, commit repeated copyright violations, engage in fraud or deceptive practices, manipulate streams or platform metrics, or breach this Agreement or other platform policies.

14.

16.

Changes to this Agreement

Wisdom Light may update this Agreement from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the platform, email, or other reasonable means before they take effect where required by law. Continued use of the Creator platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
