You retain ownership but grant xaround a license to use your content within the app. This license includes displaying content you post to public surfaces as part of other users' reposts, quotes, and shares, including images of it generated by the share feature.

4.2. Direct Messages
- No recovery. Direct messages disappear by design and cannot be recovered once expired, by you or by xaround. xaround is not liable for the expiry of messages on their chosen timer.
- Disappearing is not a guarantee against capture. Timers govern xaround's servers and apps only. They cannot prevent a recipient from screenshotting, photographing, or otherwise capturing a message, and xaround cannot detect such capture.
- Reporting. Reporting a conversation licenses xaround to preserve the reported messages, including media, for up to 90 days for moderation and any legally required escalation, even after their timer expires.
- Service integrity. Delivery of messages may be refused or limited for safety enforcement without notice to the sender.
- Interim access. Until end-to-end encryption ships, message content is technically accessible to xaround while it exists and is accessed only as described in thePrivacy Policy.

xaround owns the app and its features, protected by intellectual property laws. Feedback provided by users becomes the property of xaround.
