You represent and warrant that: (i) you own the Content posted by you on or through KOLDCAST TV or otherwise have the right to grant the license set forth in this section, and (ii) the posting of your Content on or through KOLDCAST TV does not violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, contract rights or any other rights of any person.
