SUBMISSION AGREEMENT

This SUBMISSION AGREEMENT ("Submission Agreement") is between you, as the submitter of digital content ("You"), and Hyperchild Workshop ("Hyperchild’). You and Hyperchild agree as follows:

1.  When You submit the Submission to Hyperchild, it needs to conform to the Technical Requirements. You acknowledge and agree that submitting the Submission does not guarantee its appearance on the Website and that Hyperchild's review and analysis of the Submission is sufficient consideration hereunder. Hyperchild may not be able to review and evaluate all of the submissions it receives, and is only able to select a certain number for the Competition. Hyperchild may reject the Submission for any reason, in which case Hyperchild shall have no rights at all in or to the Submission.

2. As consideration for the rights granted by You to Hyperchild (that is, if the Submission is chosen as a winner), Hyperchild shall pay You a one-time license fee of US$500, payable within 30 days of when Hyperchild produces the product.

3. The winning submission in the Competition shall be the submission that has the most points at the end of the Competition under a voting system which incorporates a certain number of points for each vote and additional points for other user activity as functionality becomes available (for example, user ratings, views, comments and tags). Hyperchild reserves the right to disqualify what it believes to be fraudulent or disruptive votes and/or submissions, to use technical and manual methods (including IP addresses) to monitor and enforce this policy, and to make all such judgments in its sole discretion.

4. If the Submission wins the Competition, Hyperchild shall send You an email with the agreements attached and with instructions, and You agree to print, sign and return them to Hyperchild within 10 business days after receipt of the email. If You do not return the agreements by the deadline, or if You are for any reason determined by Hyperchild to be ineligible, then Hyperchild shall have the right to rescind the deal offer and select the runner up as an alternate winner.

5. You (including each Team member, if applicable) hereby represent, warrant and covenant that:

You acknowledge that Hyperchild has no obligation to You for Hyperchild's use of material that was created by or for Hyperchild without the benefit of the Submission, before, during or after You submitted the Submission, and that is similar or identical to the Submission in theme, characters, ideas, plots storylines, formats or other similar respects. In addition, Hyperchild shall have no fewer rights with respect to the Submission than any member of the general public.
