Rights Granted to the Company by You
As part of this agreement, you also grant the Company the necessary rights to provide you with services.
Although we do not claim ownership of your content, you grant us a license to use your content. Your rights to your content remain unchanged. We do not claim ownership of the content you post on or through the service, and you are free to share it with others anywhere. However, to provide the service, we need certain legal rights ('license') from you. When you share, post, or upload content that is protected by intellectual property rights (like photos or videos) on or in connection with our service, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable, and worldwide license to host, use, distribute, modify, run, copy, publicly perform or display, translate, and create derivative works of your content (consistent with your privacy and application settings).

You grant us the right to display your screen name, profile picture, and information about your activities (like 'Likes') or relationships (like 'Friends') along with or in connection with accounts, ads, offers, and other promotional content that are displayed across Digital Angkor products, free of charge. For example, we may display that you liked a promotional post by a brand that advertises on AngkorFeed.

If you select a screen name or similar identifier for your account, we may change it if we deem it appropriate or necessary (e.g., if it infringes on someone else's intellectual property rights or impersonates another user).
If you use content that is subject to the intellectual property rights owned by us and used in our service (e.g., images, designs, videos, or sounds provided by us added to content you create or share), we retain all rights to such content but do not claim rights to your unique content.
You may use our intellectual property rights and trademarks or similar marks only if you have received explicit permission through our brand guidelines or prior written permission.
You must obtain our written permission or permission under open-source licenses to modify our source code, create derivative works of our source code, or attempt to reverse-Compiling or extract the source code.
Content Deletion and Account Deactivation or Deletion
If we determine that the content or information you share on the service violates these Terms of Use, our policies (including AngkorFeed Community Guidelines), or is required to be deleted by law, we can delete it. We may immediately suspend or refuse to provide all or part of the service to you (including termination or deactivation of access to Digital Angkor products and services) if necessary to protect our community or service, if you pose a risk or legal problem to us, if you violate these Terms or our policies (including AngkorFeed Community Guidelines), if you repeatedly infringe on someone else's intellectual property rights, or if allowed or required by law. We may terminate or modify the service, delete or block content shared on the service, or suspend the provision of all or part of the service if we reasonably believe it is necessary to avoid or reduce adverse legal or regulatory impacts on us. If you believe your account has been terminated in error, please contact our customer center. The deletion process for content or an account will automatically start within 30 days of the request. Deleting content may take up to 90 days after the deletion process begins. During this deletion process, content will not be displayed to users but will still be subject to these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy. It may take up to an additional 90 days to delete content from backup and disaster recovery systems.
Content will not be deleted within 90 days after account deletion or the start of the content deletion process in the following cases:
If someone else has used the content under this license and has not yet deleted it (in which case the license remains in effect until the content is deleted), or
Due to technical limitations in our systems, if deletion within 90 days is not possible (and in such cases, we will delete the content as soon as it becomes technically feasible), or
If immediate deletion may limit our actions, such as:
Investigating or clarifying illegal activities or suspected violations of our Terms or policies (e.g., investigating or clarifying misuse of our products or systems)
Protecting the safety and security of our products, systems, and users
Preserving evidence or complying with legal obligations
Complying with requests from judicial or administrative authorities, law enforcement agencies, or government agencies
In such cases, content will be retained only for as long as necessary for the purpose of content retention. (The exact period varies by case)
If there was no request from the user to delete the content
If you delete your account, these Terms are terminated, just like your contract with us, but the provisions of this section and the following section ('In case of disagreement') still apply after the account is deleted or deactivated.
In Case of Disagreement with Contractual Terms with Our Company
Your use of media through the service is also subject to our Media Guidelines, and if you use certain specific features or related services, you will have the opportunity to agree to additional terms, which form part of the agreement between you and us. For example, if you use the payment feature, you must agree to the AngkorPay Terms. If additional terms conflict with this contract, the additional terms will take precedence.
If a part of this contract becomes unenforceable, the rest will continue to be effective.
Changes or waivers to this contract are only possible in writing, signed by us. Our failure to enforce a part of this contract does not constitute a waiver.
We reserve all rights not explicitly granted to you.
Rights Holders Under This Agreement
This contract does not grant rights to third parties.
You cannot transfer your rights or obligations under this contract to others without our consent.
Our rights and obligations can be transferred to others. This can happen, for example, due to a change in ownership of our company through mergers or asset sales, or as required by law.
Responsible Parties in Emergencies
Our services are provided 'as is', and we cannot guarantee that our services will be safe and secure or operate perfectly at all times. Within the limits permitted by law, we also do not make any implicit guarantees, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, authority, and non-infringement.
We also do not take responsibility for people's actions or words, whether online or offline, or for content (including illegal or harmful content). We are not responsible for services and features provided by other people or companies, even if you access them through our service.
Our liability for all issues arising from the service is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. We cannot know all possible impacts that service issues may have. You agree that we are not responsible for any loss of profits, revenues, information, or data, or for consequential, special, indirect, exemplary, punitive, or incidental damages arising from or related to these terms, regardless of whether we were aware of the possibility of such damages. This includes cases where we delete your content, information, or account.
However, despite these provisions, our liability limitations or exemptions according to these regulations may not be permitted under relevant laws. In such cases, we will be responsible within the scope defined by those laws.
Dispute Resolution
These terms of service are based on Cambodian law for their establishment, effectiveness, and interpretation. Furthermore, any disputes arising from or related to our services (including content and advertisements) between us and customers will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the local Cambodian courts as the court of first instance.
Amendment of Terms
We may change AngkorFeed services and policies, and need to amend these terms to accurately reflect changes in AngkorFeed services and policies. Unless legally required otherwise, we will inform you before making changes to these terms and provide you with at least 30 days to review them before they take effect. If you continue using AngkorFeed services after the date of effect, you will be subject to the amended terms. If you do not agree to these terms or the amended terms, you can delete your account through [Home]>[More]>[Settings]>[AngkorFeed]>[Delete].
