User Content Permission
User Content Permission Terms & Conditions
Last Updated: [August 25, 2026]
Thank you for sharing your love of Rizos Curls! Rizos Curls, Inc. (“Rizos Curls”, “we”, “us” or “our”) would love to feature content that you have created and posted on social media. These User Content Permission Terms & Conditions (these “Terms”) explain the permission you give us when you agree to let us share your content:
1. How You Agree. If we (or our authorized agency) send you a message asking to share your photo, video, or other content (your “Content”) and you respond using the hashtag #YesRizos (or otherwise reply affirmatively, such as “yes,” in response to our request referencing these Terms), you are agreeing to these Terms with respect to the Content identified in our request. If you do not agree, simply do not respond with the hashtag, and we will not use your Content.
2. License You Grant Us. You grant Rizos Curls a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, distribute, and display your Content, in whole or in part, on our social media channels (such as Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Pinterest), our websites, our emails, and our digital marketing and advertising relating to Rizos Curls, our products, and our brand. We may make reasonable edits to your Content for these uses (for example, cropping, resizing, reformatting, or adding captions, text, or Rizos Curls branding) so long as the edits do not materially misrepresent you or your Content. We may allow the agencies and service providers who operate these channels on our behalf to use your Content solely for the purposes described in these Terms. If we would like to use your Content in other ways (for example, in print materials, in-store displays, on retailer product pages, or on product packaging), we will reach out to you for separate permission first.
3. Your Name, Image and Likeness. You grant us the right to use your name, social media handle or username, profile photo, image, likeness, voice, statements, captions, and biographical information, in each case as they appear in or in connection with your Content, for the purposes described above. Where reasonably practicable, we will credit your social media handle when we re-share your Content, but you agree that credit is not required.
4. You Keep Ownership. You retain all ownership rights you have in your Content. These Terms do not transfer ownership of your Content to us, but rather they give us permission to use your Content as described above.
5. No Payment Or Fee. You agree that your permission is given voluntarily and free of charge, and that you are not entitled to any compensation, royalty, fee, or other payment or benefit in connection with our use of your Content, your name, or your likeness
6. Your Promises To Us. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant that: (a) you are at least 18 years old; (b) you created the Content and own all rights in it, or you have all permissions needed to grant us the rights in these Terms; (c) every person who appears in the Content has given you permission for the Content to be used as described in these Terms (and, if any person appearing in the Content is under 18, that person’s parent or legal guardian has given such permission); (d) the Content does not infringe or violate the intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights of any person or entity; (e) our use of the Content as permitted by these Terms will not violate any law or any agreement you have with any third party (including any exclusivity arrangement with another brand); and (f) if your Content mentions or depicts Rizos Curls products, your statements reflect your honest, genuine opinions and actual experience with the products.
7. Release. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release and discharge Rizos Curls and our affiliates, and our and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents, from any and all claims, demands, and liabilities arising out of or relating to our use of your Content, your name, or your likeness as permitted by these Terms, including any claims for copyright or trademark infringement, violation of rights of privacy or publicity, defamation, or false light.
8. Indemnification. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Rizos Curls and our affiliates, and our and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents, from and against any third-party claims, damages, liabilities, and reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent arising out of a breach of your promises in Section 6 of these Terms.
9. Removal Requests. Your permission continues until you ask us to stop. If you would like us to stop using your Content or remove a specific post, contact us at community@rizoscurls.com with a link to the post, and we will remove the Content from our active social media and websites and stop new uses within a commercially reasonable time (not to exceed sixty (60) days). You understand that we cannot recall materials already published or distributed before your request (for example, emails already sent), and that copies may persist in archives, backups, or third-party re-shares outside our control.
10. No Obligation; No Endorsement Relationship. We are not obligated to use your Content. These Terms do not create any employment, agency, partnership, sponsorship, or paid-endorsement relationship between you and Rizos Curls.
11. Governing Law; Disputes; Remedies. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts. You agree that your sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of these Terms by Rizos Curls is an action at law for money damages, and you waive any right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief to restrain the publication, distribution, or display of your Content used in accordance with these Terms. The foregoing does not limit your removal request rights under Section 9.
12. General. These Terms are the entire agreement between you and Rizos Curls regarding our use of the identified Content and supersede any prior or contemporaneous understandings on that subject, except that if you and Rizos Curls have entered into a separate signed agreement covering the same Content, that signed agreement controls. You agree that these Terms may be formed electronically and that your reply with the designated hashtag (or other affirmative response) constitutes your agreement and electronic signature. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets or the Rizos Curls brand; you may not assign these Terms. There are no third-party beneficiaries of these Terms except the released and indemnified parties described in Sections 8 and 9. We may update these Terms from time to time by posting a revised version on this page; the version in effect when you agree governs the Content covered by that agreement.
