You must not describe or assign keywords to your app in a misleading or unlawful manner, including in a manner intended to trade on the name or reputation of others, and TieLabs Technologies FZE may change or remove any description or keyword that it considers inappropriate or unlawful, or otherwise likely to cause TieLabs Technologies FZE liability.

That is the case regardless of whether the Content in question constitutes text, graphics, an audio file, or computer software. By making Content available, you represent and warrant that:

  • you have fully complied with any third-party licenses relating to the Content, and have done all things necessary to successfully pass through to end users any required terms;
  • the Content does not contain or install any viruses, worms, malware, Trojan horses or other harmful or destructive content;
  • the Content is not spam, is not machine- or randomly-generated, and does not contain unethical or unwanted commercial content designed to drive traffic to third party sites or boost the search engine rankings of third party sites, or to further unlawful acts (such as phishing) or mislead recipients as to the source of the material (such as spoofing);
  • the Content is not pornographic, does not contain threats or incite violence towards individuals or entities, and does not violate the privacy or publicity rights of any third party;
  • your app is not getting advertised via unwanted electronic messages such as spam links on newsgroups, email lists, other apps and websites, and similar unsolicited promotional methods;
  • your app is not named in a manner that misleads your readers into thinking that you are another person or company. For example, your app’s name is not the name of a person other than yourself or company other than your own; and
  • you have, in the case of Content that includes computer code, accurately categorized and/or described the type, nature, uses and effects of the materials, whether requested to do so by TieLabs Technologies FZE or otherwise.

By submitting Content or graphic materials (e.g. your logo) to TieLabs Technologies FZE for inclusion on your app, you grant TieLabs Technologies FZE a world-wide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, modify, adapt and publish the content and materials solely for the purpose of displaying, distributing and promoting your app.

Without limiting any of those representations or warranties, TieLabs Technologies FZE has the right (though not the obligation) to, in TieLabs Technologies FZE’s sole discretion (i) refuse or remove any app that, in TieLabs Technologies FZE’s reasonable opinion, violates any TieLabs Technologies FZE policy or is in any way harmful or objectionable, or (ii) terminate or deny access to and use of the Website to any individual or entity for any reason, in TieLabs Technologies FZE’s sole discretion.
