Update:

We have added a new policy (more like a reminder and clarification) for Sponsor Disclaimers, here it is:

  1. YAHAHA does not claim ownership of Entries, however, except where prohibited, by participating in the campaign, entrant grants Yahaha and its agents an irrevocable right and license in perpetuity to publish, use, edit, adapt, and/or modify any or all of the content in an Entry that was created or contributed to by Entrant without the need for further approval, in whole or in part, in any way, in any and all media throughout the world, and to associate the Entry with Entrant's name, likeness, and biographical information, without limitation and without compensation for the purposes of announcing winners, showcase and marketing promotion associated to the campaign. Entrant agrees that Released Parties (as defined below) are not responsible for any unauthorized use of Entries by third parties.

-----------------

I'm now going to break it down for you just to put it in more simple terms to know what this all means and what this means for your game that you submit to our jam; this is mainly for the people who are concerned about why you are required to give Yahaha access to your game's itch page when you submit:

  1. Ownership: Yahaha does not claim ownership of your game (referred to as "Entries").
  2. License Granted: By participating in the campaign, you grant Yahaha and its agents an irrevocable, perpetual license to:
    • Publish, use, edit, adapt, and modify any or all content in your game entry.
    • Use your entry in any media worldwide.
    • Associate your entry with your name, likeness, and biographical information.
  3. Purpose: The granted license is for:
    • Announcing winners.
    • Showcasing and marketing promotions related to the campaign.
  4. Unauthorized Use: Yahaha is not responsible for any unauthorized use of your entry by third parties (basically if your itch gets hacked, you can't blame them)

In summary, while you retain ownership of your game, Yahaha and its agents have extensive rights to use, modify, and promote your game and associate it with your personal information without further approval or compensation. But if you guys have any questions and concern, reach out on the discord.
