Accordingly, you hereby grant to BKC, its parents, subsidiaries and affiliated companies and each of their respective agents (including, without limitation, Crispin Porter & Bogusky LLC), licensees, successors, and assigns (collectively, the “BKC Entities”), the right, in its sole discretion, to distribute, publish, exhibit, digitize, composite, morph, scan, duplicate, broadcast, display, reproduce and otherwise use and exploit the Video, Photograph, Name and Location, and any material based thereon or derived therefrom, edited or altered as BKC in its sole discretion so chooses, together with any other material (whether fictional or non-fictional), in any manner or media whatsoever (including, without limitation, on YouTube, and as part of an electronic mailing send-to-a-friend function) anywhere in the world for any purpose which BKC Entities deems necessary or desirable.
By uploading a Photograph, you further irrevocably waive any and all so-called moral rights you may have in the Video and/or the Photograph and you agree that you shall have no right of approval, no claim to compensation, and no claim (including, without limitation, claims based upon invasion of privacy, defamation, or right of publicity) arising out of any use, blurring, alteration, editing, morphing, distortion, illusionary effect, faulty reproduction, fictionalization, or use in any composite form of your name, picture, image, likeness, or biographical information.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you understand that BKC shall have no obligation to use the Video, the Photograph, and/or the Name and Location, and BKC may, at any time, deny you permission to post the Video to YouTube or cause/allow the Video to be removed from YouTube or any other media whatsoever, for any reason.
