2. Hosting and Content Ownership

You retain full ownership of the games and assets you upload to CoGDemos. However, by uploading content, you grant us permission to host and serve that content publicly through the Platform.

You may only upload content you own or have the legal right to distribute. If you use ChoiceScript, note that commercial distribution may require a license from Choice of Games LLC. CoGDemos is not affiliated with Choice of Games.
