You must not describe or assign keywords to your account, font or collection in a misleading or unlawful manner, including in a manner intended to trade on the name or reputation of others.

Responsibility of Contributors.
If you operate a collection of fonts, post material to the Website, post links on the Website, post comments on the Website, or otherwise make (or allow any third party to make) material available by means of the Website (any such material, “Content”), you are entirely responsible for the Content, and any liability resulting from the Content, its use or distribution. That is the case regardless of whether the Content in question constitutes text, graphics, audio files, or computer software. By making Content available, you represent and warrant that:
- the downloading, copying and use of the Content will not infringe the proprietary or intellectual property rights, including the copyright, patent right, trademark or trade secret, of any third party;
- if your employer or others has rights to intellectual property you create, you have either (i) received permission from such person to post or make available the Content, including any software, or (ii) secured from your such person a waiver as to all rights in or to the Content;
- you have fully complied to 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 with malicious intent towards the Website, and does not contain unethical or unwanted commercial Content designed to drive traffic to third party internet sites or boost the search engine rankings of third party sites, or commit or contribute to further unlawful acts (such as phishing) or mislead recipients as to the source of the material (such as spoofing);
- the Content is not defamatory, 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 account, fonts or generated images is not getting advertised via unwanted electronic messages such as spam links on newsgroups, email lists, blogs and web sites, and similar unsolicited promotional methods;
- your account, fonts or generated images is not named in a manner that misleads your readers into thinking that you are another person or company. For example, your account’s URL or 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 Content, whether requested to do so by NFG or otherwise.
By submitting Content to NFG for inclusion on the Website, you grant NFG a world-wide, perpetual, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, modify, adapt and publish the Content for the purpose of displaying, distributing (hereunder sub-licensing) and promoting your account, project or Content. If you delete Content, NFG will use reasonable efforts to remove it from the Website, but you acknowledge that caching or references to the Content may not be made immediately unavailable.
Without limiting any of those representations or warranties, NFG has the right (though not the obligation) in NFG’s sole discretion, to (i) refuse or remove any Content that, in NFG’s reasonable opinion, violates any NFG policy, the Agreement 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.
