You are solely responsible for your User Content and assume all risks associated with use of your User Content, including any reliance on its accuracy, completeness or usefulness by others, and/or any disclosure of your User Content that makes you or any third party personally identifiable. BlogMeetsBrand makes no guarantee regarding the accuracy, currency, suitability or quality of any User Content, and we assume no responsibility for any User Content.

We are under no obligation to pre-screen your User Content or the content of any other User.

(e) Storage. You may be able to store your User Content in many areas within the website. We provide these storage capabilities as a convenience to you. You represent and warrant that that website is not the single repository for your User Content and acknowledge that you, and not BlogMeetsBrand, are responsible for ensuring your User Content is backed up. BlogMeetsBrand has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or loss of any of your User Content. You agree that BlogMeetsBrand retains the right to create reasonable limits on BlogMeetsBrand’s use and storage of your User Content, such as limits on file size, storage space, processing capacity, and similar limits as determined by us in our sole discretion.

(f) Removal. If you wish to remove a profile or Campaign Description listing in whole or part, you may do so through the website, subject to the following: we may continue to use anonymous information derived from your User Content in accordance with our Privacy Policy and we may retain the User Content in a non-production environment to comply with laws, prevent fraud, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce our Terms of Use, and take any other action otherwise permitted by law. Notwithstanding any such removal, the licenses set forth in Section 4(c) above will not be terminated for any uses of your User Content within the scope of such licenses prior to the date you removed the User Content (for example if we used one of your images in a blog). If you send us a written notice to info@BlogMeetsBrand.com, we’ll make reasonable efforts to stop using the removed User Content. However, please understand that we may not be able to cease our use and we will have very little ability to require others who are already making alternative uses of your User Content to cease their uses.
