6. License to Use User Content

By submitting User Content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, and irrevocable license to use, reproduce, modify, and adapt such User Content in an aggregated and anonymized form for the purposes of operating, improving, and promoting the Service.
