SimpleClosure AssetHub's published terms
A shutdown service that also sells companies' assets, and may buy them itself. The clauses SimpleClosure AssetHub publishes, in its own words, most costly first. Read on the day shown; these terms change, so check the page before you sign.
Licence and use
Submitting assets lets SimpleClosure de-identify your data and use it for any legal purpose.
“Your license to us includes permission for us to aggregate, anonymize, and de-identify Your Data to use for any legal purpose. The foregoing license specifically includes Digital Assets (defined below) you submit through the Asset Hub Services”
Our reading: Uploading is itself a licence, before any buyer is found.
