      2. It is our policy to suspend access to any Content you post on cayden which we become aware may not comply with the Terms of Service (including, in particular, our Acceptable Use Policy) and/or any applicable law whilst we investigate the suspected non-compliance or unlawfulness of such Content. If we suspend access to any of your Content, you may request a review of our decision to suspend access to the relevant Content by contacting us at hi@kgxe.co.uk. Following our investigation of the suspected non-compliance or unlawfulness of the relevant Content, we may take any action we consider appropriate, including to reinstate access to the Content or to permanently remove or disable access to the relevant Content without needing to obtain any consent from you and without giving you prior notice. You agree that you will at your own cost promptly provide to us all reasonable assistance (including by providing us with copies of any information which we request) in our investigation.

      1. We do not authorize or approve Content on cayden, and views expressed by Creators or Fans on cayden do not necessarily represent our views.

      2. We do not grant you any rights in relation to Content. Any such rights may only be granted to you by Creators.

      3. Your Content may be viewed by individuals that recognise your identity. We will not in any way be responsible to you if you are identified from your Content. While we may, from time to time and in our sole discretion, offer certain geofencing or geolocation technology on cayden, you understand and agree that we do not guarantee the accuracy or effectiveness of such technology, and you will have no claim against us arising from your use of or reliance upon any geofencing or geolocation technology on cayden.

      4. All Content is created, selected, and provided by Users and not by us. We are not responsible for reviewing or moderating Content, and we do not select or modify the Content that is stored or transmitted via cayden. We are under no obligation to monitor Content or to detect breaches of the Terms of Service (including the Acceptable Use Policy).

      5. You agree that you have no obligation to follow any suggestions, comments, reviews, or instructions received from another User of cayden and that if you choose to do so, you do so entirely at your own risk.

      6. The materials which we make accessible on cayden for Users are for general information only. We make no promises or guarantees about the accuracy or otherwise of such materials, or that Users will achieve any particular result or outcome from using such materials.

      7. We do not promise that cayden is compatible with all devices and operating systems. You are responsible for configuring your information technology, device, and computer programs to access cayden. You should use your own virus protection software.

      8. We are not responsible for the availability of the internet, or any errors in your connections, device or other equipment, or software that may occur in relation to your use of cayden.

      9. While we try to make sure that cayden is secure and free from bugs and viruses, we cannot promise that it will be and have no control over the Content that is supplied by Creators.

      10. We are not responsible for any lost, stolen, or compromised User accounts, passwords, email accounts, or any resulting unauthorized activities or resulting unauthorized payments or withdrawals of funds.

      11. You acknowledge that once your Content is posted on cayden, we cannot control and will not be responsible to you for the use which other Users or third parties make of such Content. You can delete your account at any time, but you acknowledge that deleting your account will not of itself prevent the circulation of any of your Content which may have been recorded by other Users in breach of the Terms of Service or by third parties prior to the deletion of your account.

    20. Intellectual property rights – ownership and licenses:

      1. You confirm that you own all intellectual property rights (examples of which are copyright and trademarks) in your Content or that you have obtained all necessary rights to your Content which are required to grant licenses in respect of your Content to us and to other Users. This includes any rights required to engage in the acts covered by sub-section 10(b) below in any territory in which cayden is accessible and, in particular, in the United States of America, the United Kingdom and the European Union.

      2. You agree to grant us a license under all your Content to perform any act restricted by any intellectual property right (including copyright) in such Content, for any purpose reasonably related to the provision and operation of cayden. Such acts include to reproduce, make available and communicate to the public, display, perform, distribute, translate, and create adaptations or derivative works of your Content, and otherwise deal in your Content.

      3. The license which you grant to us under sub-section 10(b) above is perpetual, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, assignable and transferable by us. This means that the license will continue even after your agreement with us ends and you stop using cayden, that we do not have to pay you for the license, and that we can grant a sub-license of your Content to someone else or assign or transfer the license to someone else. This license will allow us, for example, to add stickers, text, and watermarks to your Content, to make your Content available to other Users of cayden, as well as to use your Content for other normal operations of cayden. We will never sell your Content to other platforms, though we may sell or transfer any license you grant to us in the Terms of Service in the event of a sale of our company or its assets to a third party.

      4. Whilst we do not own your Content, you grant us the limited right to submit notifications of infringement (including of copyright or trademark) on your behalf to any third-party website or service that hosts or is otherwise dealing in infringing copies of your Content without your permission. Although we are not under any obligation to do so, we may at any time submit or withdraw any such notification to any third-party website or service where we consider it appropriate to do so. However, we do not and are under no obligation to police infringements of your Content. You agree that if we request, you will provide us with all consents and other information which we reasonably need to submit notifications of infringement on your behalf. Please see our Complaints Policy for how to make a complaint about infringement of intellectual property rights.

      5. You waive any moral rights which you may have under any applicable law to object to derogatory treatment of any Content posted by you on cayden. This waiver does not affect in any way your ownership of any intellectual property rights in your Content or the rights which you have to prevent your Content from being copied without your permission. The waiver is intended to allow us when dealing with your Content (as permitted by the license which you give us in section 10(b) above) to add watermarks, stickers or text to your Content.

    21. Linking to and from cayden:

      1. Links to cayden:

        • You may link to the cayden homepage, provided you do so in a way that is fair and legal and does not damage our reputation or take advantage of it, but you must not establish a link in such a way as to suggest any form of association, approval, or endorsement on our part.

        • If you are a Creator, when promoting your Creator account you must comply with our Terms of Service and the terms of service of any other website where you place a link to or otherwise promote your Creator account. When promoting your Creator account, you must not impersonate cayden or give the impression that your Creator account is being promoted by us if this is not the case. You must not promote your cayden account by using Google Ads or any similar advertising platform or search engine advertising service.

      2. Links from cayden: If cayden contains links to other sites and resources provided by third parties, these links are provided for your convenience only. Such links should not be interpreted as approval by us of those linked websites or information you may obtain from them. We have no control over the contents of those sites or resources and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them. If you decide to access any of the third-party websites linked to cayden, you do so entirely at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such websites.

      3. Domain Names: In some instances, cayden may allow Creators to register or use domain names that contain the cayden trademark or a confusingly similar term. However, you will not register such a domain name, unless:

        • The domain name is registered by the Creator.

        • The domain name redirects to the Creator’s cayden profile. Domain names containing the cayden trademark or a confusingly similar term must not direct to any other website, including link aggregators.

        • The Creator obtains prior written permission from cayden and signs a licensing agreement.

        If you would like to register a domain name containing the cayden trademark or a confusingly similar term, please contact hi@kgxe.co.uk. Failing to comply with these provisions or the licensing agreement will be considered a violation of the licensing agreement and may result in cayden filing a domain dispute against the registrant.

    22. How do I delete my account? If you want to delete your cayden account then you may do so in the 'Settings' section of your cayden account.

      1. If you are a Fan, the deletion of your account will take place within a reasonable time following your request.

      2. If you are a Creator, then once you initiate the "delete account" process your account will remain open until the last day of your Fans' paid Subscription period, following which you will receive your final payment and your account will be deleted.

      3. If you are both a Fan and a Creator then your account will be deleted in two stages (Fan first and then Creator).

      4. Once your account has been deleted you won't be charged any further amounts or have access to your former cayden account or its Content, and any subscriptions will be deleted and cannot be subsequently renewed. You will receive an email confirmation upon the successful deletion of your account. Once your account has been deleted, we may deal with your Content in any appropriate manner in accordance with our Privacy Policy (including by deleting it) and you will no longer be entitled to access your Content. There is no technical facility on cayden for you to be able to access your Content following termination of your account.

      1. Whether you are a consumer or business User: We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so.

        • Our total liability to you for any and all claims arising out of or related to your agreement with us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise shall be limited to the greater of:
