website(s), products, services and applications for Africa (the “Services”). If
you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding the Services, please
contact us at support@Mykaaap.com.
These
Terms of Use (the "Terms") are a binding contract between end-users
in Africa (“you”) and Mykaaap Co.ltd, Sudan ("Mykaaap",
"we", "our" and "us"). You must agree to and
accept all of the Terms, or you don't have the right to use the Services. Your
using the Services in any way means that you agree to all of these Terms, and
these Terms will remain in effect while you use the Services. These Terms
include the provisions in this document, as well as those in the PrivacyPolicy and Copyright Dispute Policy found here.
If you do not access the Services from Africa, your use of the Services is
governed by different terms.
These
Terms constitute an electronic record within the meaning of the Information
Technology Act, 2000 and the rules and regulations framed thereunder. This
electronic record is generated by a computer system and does not require any
physical or digital signatures. This document is published in accordance with
the provisions of Rule 3 (1) of the Information Technology (Intermediaries
guidelines) Rules, 2011 that require publishing the rules and regulations,
privacy policy and user agreement for access or usage of the Services.
Will these Terms ever change?
We
are constantly trying to improve our Services, so these Terms may need to
change along with the Services. We reserve the right to change the Terms at any
time, but if we do, we will bring it to your attention by placing a notice on
the Services, by sending you an email, and/or by some other means. If you don’t
agree with the new Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that
means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services
in any way after a change to the Terms is effective, that means you agree to
all of the changes.
Except
for changes by us as described here, no other amendment or modification of
these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both you and us.

Do I have to grant any licenses
to Mykaaap or other users?
Anything
you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Services is
your "User Submission." Some User Submissions are viewable by other
users. To display your User Submissions on the Services, and to allow other
users to enjoy them (where applicable), you grant us certain rights in those
User Submissions. Please note that all of the following licenses are subject to
our Privacy Policy to the
extent they relate to User Submissions that are also your

all User Submissions, you hereby grant Mykaaap a license to translate, modify
(for technical purposes, for example making sure your content is viewable on an
iPhone, Android as well as a computer) and reproduce and otherwise act with
respect to such User Submissions, in each case to enable us to operate the
Services, as described in more detail below. This is a license only – your
ownership in User Submissions is not affected.

that is not viewable by any other user except you (a “Personal User
Submission”), you grant Mykaaap the license above, as well as a license to
display, perform, and distribute your Personal User Submission for the sole
purpose of making that Personal User Submission accessible to you and providing
the Services necessary to do so.

can view (for example, a private message to one or more other users)(a “Limited
Audience User Submission”), then you grant Mykaaap the licenses above, as well
as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Limited Audience User

User Submission for the purpose of making that Public User Submission
accessible to all Mykaaap users and providing the Services necessary to do so,
as well as all other rights necessary to use and exercise all rights in that

connection with Mykaaap’s business, provided that Mykaaap will try to notify
you if it uses your Public User Submission for any reason other than displaying
