(unless specifically requested by us).

postings to chat, boards, or contests) or, despite our request, you send us
unsolicited creative suggestions, ideas, notes, drawings, concepts, or other
information (collectively, the "Submissions"), the Submissions shall
be deemed, and shall remain, our property. None of the Submissions shall be
subject to any obligation of confidentiality on our part and we shall not
be liable for any use or disclosure of any Submissions. Without limitation
of the foregoing, we shall exclusively own all now-known or hereafter existing
