As part of the Service, we may make available to you the functionality that will allow you to post, publish, transmit or submit your own content, such as reviews, comments, or other materials (the “User-Generated Content”), on or through the Platform or Service. For the purposes of these Terms of Use, the term “User-Generated Content” does not include Previews or Products.

We may use third party providers to host such functionality, in which case the terms of use of such providers will also apply to you in addition to these Terms of Use. If we do use such third-party providers, make sure you read and agree with their terms of use before you post, publish, transmit or submit your User-Generated Content. We reserve the right to post additional rules with respect to terms and conditions for your posting, publishing, transmitting or submitting User-Generated Content on specific pages or areas of the Platform.

Please choose wisely what User-Generated Content you post, publish, transmit or submit. Please limit yourself to User-Generated Content that is directly relevant to Products or Service. You must not post, publish, transmit or submit User-Generated Content that is unlawful, infringing, pornographic, obscene, defamatory, libelous, threatening, harassing, vulgar, indecent, profane, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive, encourages criminal conduct, gives rise to civil liability, violates any law, rule, or regulation, contains any harmful or malicious code, virus, worm or trojan, infringes any right of any third party including intellectual property rights, or is otherwise inappropriate or objectionable to us (in our sole discretion). Your User-Generated Content must not contain links to any other websites, images or destinations that are unlawful, infringing, pornographic, obscene, defamatory, libelous, threatening, harassing, vulgar, indecent, profane, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive, encourage criminal conduct, give rise to civil liability, violate any law, rule, or regulation, infringe any right of any third party including intellectual property rights, or are otherwise inappropriate or objectionable to us (in our sole discretion).

You must not improperly claim the identity of another person or pretend to be another person.

Be careful when you choose to post, publish, transmit or submit personally identifiable information, such as your email address, telephone number or street address. Please familiarize yourself with our Privacy Policy at https://www.ekadkahwin.my/privacy-policy/ before you do. As more fully explained in the Privacy Policy, we shall not be subject to any obligations of confidentiality regarding your User-Generated Content that you share with the public. You hereby acknowledge and agree that we shall have no obligations to you with respect to whatever business information, ideas, concepts or inventions you may wish to disclose to us or to the public using the Platform or the Service, including obligations to pay you or obligations of non-use or non-disclosure.

You must be, or have first obtained permission from, the rightful owner of any User-Generated Content you choose to post, publish, transmit or submit.

We will remove all User-Generated Content if we are properly notified that such User-Generated Content infringes on another person’s rights.

We do not claim ownership of your User-Generated Content and by posting, publishing, transmitting or submitting the User-Generated Content, you are not forfeiting to us any ownership rights in such User-Generated Content. You continue to retain all of the same ownership rights you had prior to posting, publishing, transmitting or submitting the User-Generated Content. Instead, you hereby grant us a non-exclusive, fully paid-up and royalty-free, transferrable, sub-licensable (through multiple tiers of sublicensees), worldwide license to use, display, reproduce, distribute, modify, translate, delete from, add to, prepare derivative works from, publicly perform, publish and otherwise make available User-Generated Content in any media or medium, or any form, format, including on or through the Platform and Service. You also hereby grant each user and Member of the Service a non-exclusive, limited license to access your User-Generated Content, and to use, display, reproduce, distribute, perform and otherwise make such User-Generated Content as permitted through the functionality of the Platform or Service and under these Terms of Use.

To the extent permissible under applicable law, you also hereby waive any and all moral rights that you may have in connection with your User-Generated Content, in Canada and elsewhere. You hereby authorize us to determine in our sole discretion whether or not to use your name as you used it when you posted such User-Generated Content in association with the use of such User-Generated Content. You hereby represent that you would not object to anonymous use of your User-Generated Content or to an indication of your name as you used it when you posted such User-Generated Content in connection therewith. This election is a complete and exhaustive exercise by you of your moral rights to be recognized as the author of the User-Generated Content and to be associated with the User-Generated Content. You also hereby represent and warrant that you shall not consider any modification or other use of the User-Generated Content to be causing damage to your dignity or reputation.

This license will be perpetual and will continue for at least as long as such license is necessary for us to use User-Generated Content in the manner described above, except that in certain cases, you may retain, through the functionality of the Platform, an option to control who can view certain of your User-Generated Content or to remove specific instances of such User-Generated Content.

If we provide you with an option to remove some of your User-Generated Content and you exercise that option before any person or entity further shares such User-Generated Content with others, then we will cease any future use of such User-Generated Content. We do not have an obligation to make such an option available to you. We will not have the obligation to cease using your User-Generated Content if by the time you choose to remove it, it had already been reproduced or shared by others.

We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to:

  • monitor User-Generated Content;
  • edit, moderate or remove User-Generated Content that we determine, in our sole discretion, is inappropriate or for any other reasons;
  • Record, document and back up User-Generated Content, including the dialogue in public chat rooms;
  • restrict or terminate your ability to access areas where you can post, publish, transmit or submit User-Generated Content or the Platform in general.

Despite these restrictions, please be aware that you may find some User-Generated Content provided by users or Members to be objectionable, unlawful, inaccurate, or inappropriate. We do not endorse any User-Generated Content, and such User-Generated Content does not reflect our opinions or policies. In no event do we assume any responsibility or liability whatsoever for any User-Generated Content or for our failure or refusal to take any steps directed at removing such User-Generated Content from the Platform, and you agree to waive any legal or equitable rights or remedies you may have against us with respect to such User-Generated Content. You may notify us of such objectionable, unlawful, inaccurate or inappropriate User-Generated Content by sending us an email at ekadmalaysia@gmail.com.

Liability And Indemnity Between Authors And Members

Each Author grants to each Member who obtains a License to use the Author’s Product, a limited indemnity as follows:

  • If, despite a Member’s compliance with the terms of the License accompanying the Member’s purchase of the Product, a third party makes a claim against the Member alleging that the Member’s use of the Product infringes intellectual property or other rights of that third party; and
  • if that Member promptly notifies us or the Author of the claim and gives the Author the option to control the defense of the claim (at the Author’s cost); then the Author will indemnify the Member against damages finally awarded by a court against the Member or any settlement damages agreed to by the Author regarding that claim.

Our involvement, if we choose to get involved, will be limited to acting as the Author’s agent on behalf of the Author.

The liability of each Author to Members is otherwise limited, for each Product purchased, to the Author’s compensation from the payment for that Product, except to the extent that the Author’s liability arises from wilful misrepresentations made about the item.
