Private Submissions are not publically displayed on Tasteavision Media Platforms. Private Submissions can become Public Submissions as provided immediately below.

3.2 You acknowledge that your activities on Tasteavision Media Platforms, including those under this Agreement, are subject to the terms of the Account Agreement and you represent and warrant that you are in compliance with the terms of the Account Agreement. 7/1/2020 Tasteavision Media Submission Agreement https://tasteavisionmedia/submissions

3.3.1 you are the sole author or creator of the Submission (for example, you are contributing an original screenplay you have written completely on your own); or
3.3.2 you are the sole holder of rights in the Submission because all rights in the Submission have been assigned or transferred to you (for example, you are contributing a concept video you created and all talent who helped you create the concept video assigned all their rights to you).
4.1 you have obtained all rights of publicity to any cast members or other individuals appearing in your Content;
4.2 you have obtained all rights necessary to use any music in your Content and are in compliance with all licenses to use the music in your Content;
4.3 you have obtained all rights necessary to use the locations or premises in your Content;

4.5 neither your Content nor the exercise of the rights you grant in this Agreement will infringe or violate any copyrights, contract rights, rights of privacy or other rights of any person or defame any person;
4.6 if your Content is based in whole or in part on the life of any real person, you will identify that during the submission process using the means we provide for doing so;
4.7 our exercise of the rights you grant under this Agreement will not give rise to any obligation to pay you or any third party any royalty or other payment;
4.8 if your Content is appropriate only for viewers 17 and older, you will identify the Content as such during the process using the means we provide for doing so;
4.9 your Content is free and clear of any pending or threatened litigation; and

5.2.1. Submission Type. You may choose to change a Public Submission to a Private Submission at any time using a tool we have provided you to do so.
5.2.2. Our Rights to Distribute Your Public Submission. You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, nonterminable, sub-licensable, transferable right to copy, transfer, stream, make available for download, add captions 7/1/2020 Tasteavision Media Submission Agreement https://tasteavisionmedia.com/submissions and make other distribution-related modifications to your Public Submission as we desire to facilitate such distribution.
11.1. Relationship of the Parties. You will perform under this Agreement as an independent contractor of Tasteavision Media Inc.

11.4. No Responsibility for Third-Party Actions. You acknowledge that, if submitted to Tasteavision Media as a Public Submission, your Content is freely available for download without copy protection. In no event will Amazon or any of its licensees, its sublicensees, its distributors, its producers, any party to which it assigns any of its rights hereunder, or its or their affiliates, successors or assigns, or any of their directors, officers, members, shareholders, employees, associates, agents or representatives (collectively, the “Amazon Parties”) be responsible for any reproduction, display, modification, or use of your Content or any portion thereof by you or any third party. 7/1/2020 Tasteavision Media Submission Agreement https://tasteavisionmedia.com/submission
