The User is the legal owner of the content shared on their profile and in public areas. However, due to the nature of the service and the promotion of the application, the following license transfer is mandatory:
By uploading content such as profile photos, posts, videos, biography text, and stories to the Platform as "Public", the User is deemed to have granted Xate a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable, worldwide valid, and perpetual right of use (license) to use, copy, reproduce, process, adapt, modify, publish, transmit, display, distribute, and publicly exhibit such content.
The User accepts and undertakes that, within the scope of the license granted above, their publicly shared photos and videos may be used in Xate's advertising campaigns, social media accounts (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, etc.), digital marketing materials, and promotional visuals without requiring any additional permission from the User and without paying any royalty fees.

Texts, images, and video content on the Platform are automatically scanned by 3rd party Artificial Intelligence (AI) service providers (e.g., OpenAI, Google Cloud Vision, AWS Rekognition, etc.) to detect pornography, violence, hate speech, and illegal elements. Additionally, for "Auto Translation" features in private chats, message contents may be anonymously transmitted to natural language processing (NLP) services. The User accepts this technological necessity.

- Or if system algorithms detect "Spam/Bot" activity;

When the User issues a command to delete their account via the app or through https://xate.app/deleteAccount, the profile immediately becomes invisible. However, due to potential cybercrime investigations, legal requests, and platform security requirements; the User's IP logs, login logs, messaging history, and identity information are kept in encrypted servers for a period of 90 (ninety) days from the deletion request. At the end of this period, the data is automatically and permanently destroyed.
Xate reserves the right to indefinitely close (Ban) accounts that violate "Community Guidelines", perform suspicious transactions, or receive multiple complaints, without prior notice, without assigning any reason, and without any compensation obligation.
Xate does not guarantee that the identity information (Name, Age, Photo) declared by its members reflects the truth. Xate cannot be held liable for fake profiles created with photos belonging to others, or for fraud or emotional abuse actions committed by these profiles. The User is personally responsible for the communication and sharing they enter into with people they meet on the platform.
Xate takes industry-standard measures for data security. However, in the event that data is stolen, lost, or disclosed as a result of cyber-attacks on the platform, data theft attempts, server failures, or force majeure; Xate, as the data controller, accepts no material/moral compensation liability other than making the necessary legal notifications.
