In furtherance of your exercise of the foregoing limited license, you may assume that other users who participate in gameplay with you have given you nonexclusive performance rights for their parts in your Broadcasted Content, unless or until you have notice that the relevant user opts out in accordance with the provisions outlined below. To the extent a user opts out, our license with respect to Broadcasted Content including of that user is revoked.

Any user may revoke such user’s permission to a Broadcasting User to be included in Broadcasted Content by providing written notice to the Broadcasting User of their decision to opt out (“Opt-Out Notice”). Without any obligation to do so, Innersloth may also provide Opt-Out Notices on a case-by-case basis on behalf of users. Upon receipt of an Opt-Out Notice, the Broadcasting User must promptly remove the Broadcasted Content or otherwise modify the Broadcasted Content to remove the other user(s). Innersloth does not assume any responsibility for ensuring compliance with the foregoing.
