​

This agreement was written in English (US). To the extent any translated version of this agreement conflicts with the English version, the English version controls.

​

Date of Last Revision: August 31, 2017

​

Provisions, Covenants and Restrictions
This Statement of Rights and Responsibilities (“Statement,” “Terms,” or “SRR”) derives from Infinity Terms of Service, and is our terms of service that governs our relationship with users and others who interact with Infinity, as well as Infinity brands, products and Services, which we call the “Infinity Services” or “Services”. By using or accessing the Infinity Services, you agree to this Statement, as updated from time to time in accordance with Section 13 below. Additionally, you will find resources at the end of this document that help you understand how Infinity works.

​

Because Infinity provides a wide range of Services, we may ask you to review and accept supplemental terms that apply to your interaction with a specific app, product, or service. To the extent those supplemental terms conflict with this SRR, the supplemental terms associated with the app, product, or service govern with respect to your use of such app, product or service to the extent of the conflict.

​

  1. Privacy

    Your privacy is very important to us. Our Data Policy dictates important disclosures about how you can use Infinity to share with others and how we collect and can use your content and information. We encourage you to read the Data Policy, and to use it to help you make informed decisions.

  2. Sharing Your Content and Information

    1. For content that is covered by intellectual property rights, like photos and videos (IP content), you specifically give us the following permission, subject to your privacy and application settings: you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on or in connection with Infinity (IP License). This IP License ends when you delete your IP content or your account unless your content has been shared with others, and they have not deleted it.

    2. When you delete IP content, it is deleted in a manner similar to emptying the recycle bin on a computer. However, you understand that removed content may persist in backup copies for a reasonable period of time (but will not be available to others).

    3. When you use an application, the application may ask for your permission to access your content and information as well as content and information that others have shared with you.  We require applications to respect your privacy, and your agreement with that application will control how the application can use, store, and transfer that content and information.  (To learn more about Platform, including how you can control what information other people may share with applications, read our Data Policy and Platform Page.)

    4. When you publish content or information using the Public setting, it means that you are allowing everyone, including people off of Infinity, to access and use that information, and to associate it with you (i.e., your name and profile picture).

    5. We always appreciate your feedback or other suggestions about Infinity, but you understand that we may use your feedback or suggestions without any obligation to compensate you for them (just as you have no obligation to offer them).

  3. You own all of the content and information you post on Infinity, and you can control how it is shared through your privacy and application settings. In addition:

  4. Safety

    We do our best to keep Infinity safe, but we cannot guarantee it. We need your help to keep Infinity safe, which includes the following commitments by you:

    1. You will not post unauthorized commercial communications (such as spam) on Infinity.

    2. You will not collect users’ content or information, or otherwise access Infinity, using automated means (such as harvesting bots, robots, spiders, or scrapers) without our prior permission.

    4. You will not upload viruses or other malicious code.

    5. You will not solicit login information or access an account belonging to someone else.

    6. You will not bully, intimidate, or harass any user.

    8. You will not develop or operate a third-party application containing alcohol-related, dating or other mature content (including advertisements) without appropriate age-based restrictions.

    9. You will not use Infinity to do anything unlawful, misleading, malicious, or discriminatory.

    10. You will not do anything that could disable, overburden, or impair the proper working or appearance of Infinity, such as a denial of service attack or interference with page rendering or other Infinity functionality.

    11. You will not facilitate or encourage any violations of this Statement or our policies.

  5. Registration and Account Security

    Infinity users provide their real names and information, and we need your help to keep it that way. Here are some commitments you make to us relating to registering and maintaining the security of your account:

    2. You will not create more than one personal account.

    9. You will not transfer your account (including any Page or application you administer) to anyone without first getting our written permission.

    10. If you select a username or similar identifier for your account or Page, we reserve the right to remove or reclaim it if we believe it is appropriate (such as when a trademark owner complains about a username that does not closely relate to a user’s actual name).

  6. Protecting Other People’s Rights
