Introduction

The www.stream2md.com website and associated services ("Stream2MD", the "Site"), operated by Stream2MD are available for use in two ways:

Individuals, institutions, corporations may upload video content to the site to be made available for non-paid volunteer, community-wiki-style captioning and translation. You, as a content owner, may decide whether or not to allow totally open viewing, captioning and subtitling of your content, or may choose to limit the viewing, captioning and subtitling of your content to some subset of site users, determined by you. Translators who choose to participate in the community translation process understand that you will receive attribution, if you wish, but will otherwise not be monetarily compensated for your work.
Individuals, institutions, corporations may upload video content to the site to be made available for paid professional (work for hire), captioning and translation. You, as content owners, decide whether or not to allow totally open viewing, captioning and subtitling of your content or you choose to limit the viewing, captioning and subtitling of your content to some subset of site users, determined by you.

And, under the following conditions

When you submit or post material, you must be the owner of the content or have express permission from the content owner to share their work. When content is uploaded to Stream2MD you must choose a Creative Commons license or "all rights reserved". By choosing "all rights reserved", you indicate that the content will be posted under terms other than Creative Commons licenses. If the content is licensed under terms that do not permit derivative works to be made from that content, by which we mean to indicate permission to overlay subtitled files on top of the original digital files and/or to distribute that content via an mpeg4, do not upload the file to Stream2MD. If the content has previously been licensed with a Creative Commons license, Stream2MD will acknowledge the terms under which the content was originally licensed. Content uploaded using a Creative Commons or other license is subject to the specific terms that the license grants.
You, as a content owner, grant to Stream2MD the royalty-free, perpetual, revocable, non-exclusive right and license to use, translate, distribute, and display the content (in whole or in part) worldwide, to create derivative works and/or to incorporate it in other media or technology.
The rights to the translations done by volunteers are always owned by the translators who do the volunteer translations on videos that reside solely on Stream2MD.

The following terms reflect the different use scenarios. We have tried to word this in the clearest non-legal language. We reserve the right to modify these terms, as necessary, but will inform the Stream2MD community immediately if we choose to do so.

You may not use Stream2MD or the materials on it in any manner that violates the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, trademark rights, patent rights, contract rights, or any other rights belonging to the content’s owner. We reserve the right, at any time to suspend, cancel, or terminate an abusers right to use the Site (or any portion of the Site) for violation.
