- Quoting short excerpts (up to 100 words) with proper attribution and a link back to the original post.
2.3 User-Generated Content
riddify.xyz may allow users to post comments, submit stories, or upload photos. By submitting content, you grant riddify.xyz a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to display, modify, and distribute that content on the blog and related social channels (with credit where possible).
