To foster this dialog with you we provide a form page and contact us information, and may, but are not obligated to, offer various discussion forums, blogging efforts, tie-ins to social media services (such as Twitter, Facebook etc.) and other such options for your submissions of Content (collectively “Interactive Services”). For purpose of this agreement any text, graphics, images, videos, photos or other information materials you publicly post, upload to the Site or cause to appear on the Interactive Services shall collectively be referred to as “Content”. You retain your rights to any Content you submit or post through the Interactive Services. By submitting or posting Content to our Site, Interactive Services or to us, you grant us a worldwide, unrestricted, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free license to use, copy, distribute, perform, translate, host, store, reproduce, process, adapt, modify, publish, transmit, display and distribute all or a portion of such Content in any and all media or distribution methods (now known or later developed).

You are responsible for your use of these Interactive Services, for any of your Content and any consequences resulting from your Content. Any of your Content may be accessible by other users of the Interactive Services. You should only provide Content that you are comfortable sharing with others under these Terms. GGW does not endorse, represent or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of any Content or communications posted on the Site or Interactive Services.

Such uses may be for any purpose whatsoever, including, but not limited to, training, reproduction, publication, broadcast and posting in whole or in part, in any medium and in any manner, now known or later developed, on this Site or otherwise.

Any Content you submit, post or upload to the Site may be “mirrored,” that is copied and cross-posted, to GGW’s social media pages on Facebook, Twitter, or other social networking outlets GGW elects to use in its sole discretion. The appearance of any of your Content that does appear on such third party social networking outlets, whether through such mirroring or your own actions on GGW’s social networking pages, are subject to the specific terms of use and privacy policies provided by such social networking sites. You should be aware of and review the policies and user agreements of these third party social networking sites.

GGW may also elect to utilize login authentication offered by such Third Party Sites (i.e., Facebook’s login authentication) to give you an easy method of identifying yourself in posts and Content. Many popular websites use these methods as a courtesy allowing you to avoid the need to create and remember another user account. In the event we do so and you correspondingly utilize it, the user name and password you provide are handled and controlled by the Third Party Site and its terms of use agreements and privacy policies.
