    6. To the extent allowed by law, you and we exclude all terms, whether imposed by statute or by law or otherwise, that are not expressly stated in this agreement.
    7. This agreement constitutes the entire agreement between us with respect to its subject matter and supercedes any previous communications or agreements between us.

You waive your “moral rights” in relation to such Content to the extent legally allowed. You also allow each User to use your Content in accordance with these terms and conditions. You give us the right to take any legal action we think necessary if there is an infringement of the intellectual property rights in your Content.
    2. The intellectual property rights in all Content (excluding your Content) used on or in connection with our Service are owned by us or by our partners or other Users.
