This includes displaying your content to other users at the location where you place it, showing it in feeds and search results, and enabling sharing features. This license terminates when you delete the User Content or your account, except for content that has been shared by other users or cached by external platforms prior to deletion.

Your Representations: By uploading User Content, you represent and warrant that: (a) you own the content or have all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions to grant the license above; (b) the content does not infringe or violate the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or any other rights of any third party; and (c) the content complies with these Terms and all applicable laws.

Public Nature of Content: User Content you place on Kanvio is visible to other users at the location where you anchor it, unless it is within a Privacy Zone. You acknowledge and accept this as a core feature of the Service.

No Guarantee of Preservation: While we take reasonable measures to maintain the Service, we do not guarantee the indefinite preservation of User Content. AR Cloud Anchors have a maximum time-to-live of 365 days, after which content may lose its precise AR positioning.

Violations are addressed through an enforcement ladder: warning, 7-day restriction, suspension, and permanent ban. We reserve the right to remove any content and suspend or terminate any account at our sole discretion for violations of these Terms.

If you believe your content was removed or your account was restricted in error, you may appeal by contacting us at contact@kanv.io.

Korrelated respects the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that User Content on the Service infringes your copyright, you may submit a notice under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) to our designated agent with the following information:

Send DMCA notices to: contact@kanv.io with the subject line "DMCA Takedown Request."

Upon receipt of a valid DMCA notice, we will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material and make reasonable efforts to notify the user who posted it. Users who believe their content was removed in error may submit a counter-notification.

Repeat infringers may have their accounts terminated.

Korrelated is not responsible for any injury, damage, or legal liability arising from your use of AR and location features. Location accuracy and AR positioning are not guaranteed and may vary based on device capabilities, GPS signal quality, and environmental conditions.

8. Challenges

Kanvio allows users to create and participate in community challenges. Challenges are subject to a review and approval process. We reserve the right to reject, modify, or remove challenges that do not comply with our guidelines. Participation in a challenge does not guarantee visibility, placement on leaderboards, or any other outcome.

Kanvio provides Privacy Zones, trusted friends lists, blocking, and other safety features as tools to help protect your privacy and safety. While we design these features to function as described, they are not a guarantee of absolute privacy or security.

16. Dispute Resolution

Informal Resolution: Before filing any formal legal action, you agree to first contact us at contact@kanv.io and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

Binding Arbitration: If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, rather than in court. The arbitration shall take place in California. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding.

Class Action Waiver: You agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void.

Exceptions: Either party may bring claims in small claims court if the claim qualifies. Either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement of intellectual property rights.
