13.  Copyright Complaints
In operating the Site, Mastercard may act as a “services provider” (as defined by DMCA) and offer services as online provider of materials and links to third party websites. As a result, third party materials that Mastercard does not own or control may be transmitted, stored, accessed or otherwise made available using the Site. Mastercard has in place certain legally mandated procedures regarding allegations of copyright infringement occurring on the Site and has adopted a policy that provides for the immediate removal of any content or the suspension of any user that is found to have infringed on the rights of Mastercard or of a third party, or that has otherwise violated any intellectual property laws or regulations, or these Terms of Use. If you believe any material available through the Site infringes a copyright, you should notify Mastercard using the notice procedure for claimed infringement under the DMCA (17 U.S.C. Sect. 512(c)(2)). Mastercard will respond expeditiously and has the right to remove or disable access to the material claimed to be infringing and will follow the procedures specified in the DMCA to resolve the claim between the notifying party and the alleged infringer who provided the Content. You should address infringement notices under the DMCA to: Copyright Agent, Mastercard, 2000 Purchase Street, Purchase, NY 10577, Attn: Law Department or to copyrightagent@mastercard.com.

6. Your physical or electronic signature.

If you receive such an infringement notice, you may provide counter-notification in writing to the designated agent that includes the information below. To be effective, the counter-notification must be a written communication that includes the following: 
1. Your physical or electronic signature;
2. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
3. A statement from you under the penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and
4 .Your name, physical address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of a Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your physical address is located, or if your physical address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which we may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of allegedly infringing material or an agent of such person.

As a user of the Site, you may submit your comments, which may consist of textual content and potentially photos, videos, images audio files, other types of content and links to such content if allowed by the Site (collectively, referred to as “User Submissions”). 

 

You will be solely responsible for your own User Submissions and the consequences of posting or publishing them. In connection with User Submissions, you affirm, represent, and/or warrant that: the User Submission is your original work and/or that you own or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and authorize Mastercard to use any and all User Submissions in any and all media now known or hereinafter invented without territorial or time limitations and without compensation, and have all necessary consents to collect, use and disclose any personal information, images, materials, information or likeness contained or displayed in any and all User Submissions to enable inclusion and use of the User Submissions in the manner contemplated by the Site and this Agreement. You agree that you will not submit as part of any User Submission any material that is copyrighted, protected by trade secret or otherwise subject to third-party proprietary rights, including privacy and publicity rights, unless you are the owner of such rights or have permission from their rightful owner and the necessary consents from any individuals whose personal information is contained in such material to post the material and to grant Mastercard all of the license rights granted herein. Furthermore, you warrant and represent that you will disclose the existence of any patent registrations or pending applications held by you which relate in any way to your User Submission.

 

Subject to applicable data protection laws, you acknowledge and agree that no confidential relationship or obligation of secrecy or confidentiality is established between you and Mastercard regarding the User Submission, despite any statement or legend to the contrary on the User Submission and any related materials.

 

15.  Ownership And Use of User Submissions
By making a User Submission, you understand that you are granting Mastercard a worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, fully-paid, irrevocable, sublicensable, transferrable, non-exclusive license to use, modify, and/or distribute the User Submission (including under copyright, patent, and trademark law), including the right to edit, change, and create derivative works, and any concepts or ideas contained in the User Submission, including the documents, artwork, statements, drawings, outlines, proofs, displays, photographs, footage, outtakes, musical scores, audio and video footage, discs, whether in print or electronic form, produced or created by you as part of the User Submission. Subject to rights that you, and other individuals who could be identified in User Submissions, have under applicable data protection laws, the license you are granting to Mastercard includes the right of Mastercard and its designees to reproduce the User Submission, prepare other works using the User Submission, combine your User Submission with other works, and alter, translate, distribute copies, display, perform, license and apply for copyright registration of the transformed User Submission in the name of Mastercard throughout the world in perpetuity in any media that now exists or may exist in the future. For example, the above grant permits Mastercard and its designees to use only certain portions of your User Submission, rerecord or modify any audio tracks or visual images you provide, rewrite the User Submission, and/or incorporate other materials, either created by Mastercard or licensed from others, with your Submission. If we create other works using the User Submission, those works will be owned by us and may be used in accordance with these guidelines, and shall not be subject to your approval.  In order to further effectuate the rights and license that you grant to Mastercard to your User Submission, subject to applicable data protection laws and Additional Terms, you also grant to Mastercard, the unconditional, perpetual, irrevocable right to use and exploit your name, persona, and likeness in connection with any User Submission, without any obligation or remuneration to you.  

 

By making a User Submission, you are waiving and agreeing not to assert any copyrights or “moral” rights or claim resulting from our alteration of the Submission or any photograph(s), footage, illustrations, statements or other work contained in the Submission. To the extent not waivable, you irrevocably agree not to exercise such rights (if any) in a manner that interferes with any exercise of the granted rights.  You understand that you will not receive any fees, sums, consideration, or remuneration for any of the rights granted in this Section 15. You are also agreeing to appoint Mastercard as your irrevocable attorney-in-fact with respect to the User Submission, with the right to execute and deliver any documents, in your name and on your behalf, to ensure that Mastercard can use the User Submission that you are licensing in any way Mastercard sees fit to own and protect the rights in any derivative works created from your User Submission, and to have the User Submission removed from any other website or forum.

 

Upon request of Mastercard, you shall execute and deliver such additional instrument of license, as may be solely deemed by Mastercard, reasonably necessary to establish Mastercard's ability to use the User Submission as it sees fit and that “Moral Rights of Authors” are waived under these Terms and Conditions. Should Mastercard fail to request the said license instrument as stated, that shall not be deemed a waiver of Mastercard's rights and Mastercard may at a later time request the instrument.
