The Service is intended to be as open as possible; however, there are a few restrictions on who is eligible to use it.
If you sign up for an account, you will be able to submit questions, answers, comments, and other types of posts, some of which may include images, video, or other media (collectively, "User-Generated Content" or "Content").
-By posting here, you license any such Content under the terms of one of (in increasing order of precedence) (a) the site default license at the time of creating your post; (b) the license of the category in which you post, or (c) the license you choose from the available list at the time of creating your post — the "Applicable License". You represent and warrant that you own the rights to all Content you post or that you have the right or have been given permission from the relevant copyright holder to post it under the terms of the Applicable License.
-You agree that any term of the Applicable License which requires attribution of such Content to you (an "Attribution Clause") shall be satisfied by the presentation of your username and a link to your profile alongside the Content. You acknowledge that the username presented as such will be your current username, not necessarily the username you used at the time of posting the Content. You agree that if, in Our sole judgement, your chosen username violates Section 2 above, We can reset it to the default value and doing so does not violate any Attribution Clause.
