3. User Content & Contributions
This section outlines your rights and responsibilities regarding the content you post on the platform. TL;DR: You own the content you post, but you are solely responsible for it. You grant Trabory a broad license to use it. We can take action against content that violates our terms, and copies of your content may remain if other users have shared them. Formal Text:
- A. Your Responsibility for User Content: * You retain all rights to the content you publish on the platform, including Workflows, Tips, Case Studies, comments, and any content within Marketplace listings ("User Content"). * You are solely responsible for all User Content you post. * You agree to post only User Content that you have the rights to publish and that does not violate the intellectual property rights of others (e.g., copyright or trademark infringement). * We may take action against User Content that violates these Terms, including removal or restricting access. We may also suspend or close the accounts of users who repeatedly or severely violate the intellectual property rights of third parties or otherwise violate the law or these Terms. * You acknowledge that Trabory is a neutral intermediary and does not pre-screen or monitor all User Content. We are not responsible or liable for any User Content posted by you or any other user.

How We and Other Users Can Use Your Content: * By posting User Content, you grant Trabory a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, and publicly display your User Content. * This license extends to using your content for promotional purposes and for the operation of the platform. * This license also allows other users to access, use, and share your User Content on the platform as permitted by its functionality (e.g., sharing a post or saving a reference). * These Terms do not entitle you to any payments or share of revenue from the monetization of User Content.

4. Ranking System
TL;DR: We have a three-tier ranking system (Standard, Verified, Top Rated) exclusively for providers. Ranks are based on a combination of posts and upvotes. Formal Text: Trabory has a three-tier ranking system exclusively for Provider pages in the Solutions Directory. The tiers are designed to recognize and highlight contributions from service and solution providers. The tiers are:
- Standard: The default rank for all providers.
- Verified: A provider achieves this rank by meeting the following criteria: * At least 3 posts with a minimum of 50 upvotes each. * The provider page itself has a minimum of 50 upvotes. * A total of at least 300 upvotes across all content.
- Top Rated: A provider achieves this rank by meeting the following criteria: * At least 5 posts with a minimum of 100 upvotes each. * The provider page itself has a minimum of 100 upvotes. * A total of at least 1000 upvotes across all content.
- Ranking Logic: The system will dynamically calculate and assign the highest eligible rank to a provider based on the specified thresholds.
- Ranking limit: A provider's ranking is directly tied to the number of posts they can display on their dedicated page. Providers with a regular subscription are limited to storing only three posts, which makes it impossible for them to reach the top-rated tier. To achieve a higher ranking, providers must upgrade their subscription to one that allows for more posts.
- Prohibited Conduct: Manipulating rankings through fake accounts, bots, or vote-trading is prohibited. We may adjust scores, remove ranks, or suspend accounts if manipulation is detected.
5. Marketplace Listings
