Plain-English summary

This service has several significant risks. It includes a mandatory arbitration clause and class action waiver (risk_flags-1), limiting your ability to seek legal recourse. The company can terminate your account "for any reason" (risk_flags-2) and may destroy your content upon termination (risk_flags-3). The company also has sole discretion to decide if you violated any rules (risk_flags-4). The service also asserts a broad, perpetual license to use and modify your submitted content (data_use-1) and includes a waiver of your moral rights over that content (data_use-2). Additionally, the company is not responsible for any issues arising from your interactions with third-party websites or services (gotchas-1).
