By uploading any content (texts, files, documents) to the internet portal, the user grants the provider a non-exclusive, geographically unrestricted, and royalty-free right (license) to use this content for the purpose of providing services, specifically for its storage, display, modification, processing by artificial intelligence algorithms, and the creation of derived content (summaries, audio).
