Examples of these non-Bluesky websites include websites where you are required to log-in using a username and password other than your username and password for the Bluesky Web Services, [such insert 3rd party websites on Bluesky website here if applicable e.g. as the “Jobs” channel and the “Dating” channel on Bluesky.com]. These Terms do not apply to those non-Bluesky sites. You acknowledge and agree that Bluesky is not responsible for (i) the availability of any of these non-Bluesky websites or resources, and does not endorse any advertising, products or other materials on or available from these websites or resources, and (ii) for any loss or damage which may be incurred by you as a result of the availability of those websites or resources, or as a result of any reliance placed by you on the completeness, accuracy or existence of any advertising, products or other materials on, or available from, these websites or resources.

If you use any of the voice control features of the Bluesky Web Services, like the voice control feature of the X1 Remote app, all voice commands are sent to Bluesky or its contracted service provider.

7. Content on the Bluesky Web Services
Certain Bluesky Web Services allow you to access content and information, such as collections of data, video, audio, or other multimedia, and photographs and other static images (the “Content”). This Content may be owned by Bluesky, other companies that give Bluesky the right to distribute their Content (like movie publishers), or users of the Bluesky Web Services (like you). Bluesky grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-assignable license to view the Content and to use the Bluesky Web Services for personal, non-commercial purposes as set forth in these Terms or in a manner that does not require a license. Except for activities that do not require a license, unless the Content was legally posted by you on the Bluesky Web Services, you may not distribute copies of the Content in any form (including by email or other electronic means), without prior written permission from its owner. Of course, you are free to encourage others to access the Content and to tell them how to find it.
In addition, our Content providers want to remind you that you must not remove, alter, interfere with, or circumvent any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices marked on the Content or any digital rights management mechanism, device, or other content protection or access control measure associated with the Content. The copying, downloading, stream capturing, reproduction, duplication, archiving, distribution, uploading, publication, modification, translation, broadcast, performance, display, sale, or transmission of the Content is strictly prohibited unless it is expressly permitted by Bluesky in writing or is an activity that does not require a license. You may not incorporate the Content into any hardware or software application. This prohibition applies even if you intend to give away the derivative materials free of charge.
You understand that by using the Bluesky Web Services you may be exposed to Content that you may find offensive, indecent or objectionable. In this respect, you use the Bluesky Web Services at your own risk. If you would like to use them, there are commercially available services and software that can limit exposure to material that you may find objectionable. Some of the tools may require that you be a registered Bluesky Internet user in order to download and use them. Other tools may require that you purchase a separate license to use them.
You understand that Bluesky has the right to change the Bluesky Web Services at any time with or without notice to you. We also may rearrange, delete, add to, or otherwise change Content or other features or functionality contained within the Bluesky Web Services. If we do give you notice of these changes, it may be provided on any of the Bluesky Web Sites, or via email, newspaper, bill insert, or any other reasonable means of communication. If you find a change in the Bluesky Web Services unacceptable, you have the right to cancel your Bluesky Web Services account or to stop using the Bluesky Web Services. However, if you continue to use the Bluesky Web Services after the change, this will constitute your acceptance of the change.
8. User Submissions
Some of the material appearing on the Bluesky Web Services will be provided by users or third parties. Pursuant to Section 230 of the federal Communications Decency Act, providers of interactive computer services are not considered or treated as publishers or speakers of information that is provided by other information content providers. Bluesky does not claim ownership of any material that users submit or post on the Bluesky Web Services. You agree that you are solely responsible for (and that Bluesky has no responsibility to you or to any third party for) any material that you create, transmit, or display while using the Bluesky Web Services, and for the consequences of your actions (including any loss or damage which Bluesky may suffer) by doing so.

If you post any content to the Bluesky Web Services, you hereby grant Bluesky and its licensees a worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive right and license to use, reproduce, publicly display, publicly perform, modify, sublicense, and distribute the content, on or in connection with the Bluesky Web Services or the promotion of the Bluesky Web Services, and incorporate it in other works, in whole or in part, in any manner. You represent and warrant that you own the content or otherwise have sufficient rights in it to grant to Bluesky the license set forth in this section without infringing or violating the rights of any third party. If you remove content that you have posted to the Bluesky Web Services or terminate your Bluesky Web Services account, this license will automatically expire, with a few limited exceptions. Bluesky may retain copies of your content that were archived in the normal course of Bluesky’s systems operations. In addition, copies of content that you have shared with other users of the Bluesky Web Services may be retained by Bluesky and associated with those other users’ accounts in order to provide them with the Bluesky Web Services. Bluesky does not assert any ownership over content that you post to the Bluesky Web Services; rather, as between us and you, subject to the rights granted to us in these Terms, you retain full ownership of and/or licenses to all content you post to the Bluesky Web Services and any intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights associated with that content.
The Bluesky Web Services may also contain links to community forums, bulletin boards, chat rooms, and blogs about the various Bluesky Web Services.

You agree that your participation in these forums, bulletin boards, chat rooms, and blogs will at all times conform to the posted comment policy for that forum, bulletin board, chat room, or blog.
Bluesky reserves the right, but does not assume any obligation, to review any user submission prior to its display on the Bluesky Web Services using automated tools or manual processes. Bluesky may refuse to display or remove any user submission from the Bluesky Web Services for any reason in our sole discretion. However, we will typically only do so when we become aware that the material in question is harmful, clearly illegal, or likely to be considered highly offensive or objectionable to a large segment of our users.

In accordance with the DMCA, it is Bluesky’s policy to reserve the right to terminate access to the Bluesky Web Services (or any part of those services) for any user who is either found to infringe third-party copyright or other intellectual property rights, including repeat infringers, or who Bluesky, in its sole discretion, believes is infringing these rights. Bluesky may terminate access to the Bluesky Web Services at any time with or without notice for any affected customer or user. If the affected user believes in good faith that the allegedly infringing works have been removed or blocked by mistake or misidentification, then that person may send a counter notification to Bluesky. Upon Bluesky’s receipt of a counter notification that satisfies the requirements of DMCA, Bluesky will provide a copy of the counter notification to the person who sent the original notification of claimed infringement and will follow the DMCA’s procedures with respect to a received counter notification.

23. Special Note about Bluesky Email for Users who are not Bluesky Internet Subscribers.
If you are not a subscriber to our residential Bluesky Internet or Bluesky Voice service, the following applies to your use of a Bluesky-provided email address such as yourname@Bluesky.net (“Email Service”):
Modifications, Suspension, and Termination
You understand that Bluesky may modify or discontinue the Email Service at any time with or without notice to you. If we do give you notice, it may be provided on any of the Bluesky Services, or via email, newspaper, or any other permissible communication. You understand that Bluesky may suspend or terminate your access to the Email Service for any suspected or actual violation of these Terms. In addition, you understand that Bluesky may suspend or terminate your access to the Email Service if you have not used the Email Service at least once within a nine-month period. If Bluesky suspends or terminates your Email Service, your email will be deleted without the ability to recover it.
Acceptable Use and Network Management
You will not use the Email Service to communicate or distribute email or other forms of communications in violation of these Terms.
Bluesky is not responsible for deleting or forwarding any email sent to the wrong email address by you or by someone else trying to send email to you. Bluesky is also not responsible for forwarding email sent to any Email Service account that has been suspended or terminated. This email will be returned to the sender, ignored, deleted, or stored temporarily at Bluesky’s sole discretion. If you cancel or terminate your Email Service account for any reason, all email associated with that account (and any secondary accounts) will be permanently deleted as well.
If Bluesky believes in its sole discretion that any subscriber name, account name, or email address (collectively, an “Identifier”) on the Email Service may be used for, or is being used for, any misleading, fraudulent, or other improper or illegal purpose, Bluesky (i) reserves the right to block access to and prevent the use of any of these Identifiers and (ii) may at any time require any customer to change his or her Identifier. In addition, Bluesky may at any time reserve any identifiers on the Email Service for its own purposes.
