3. User Responsibilities
By uploading documents to the Platform, you represent and warrant that:

PropertyCredentials does not claim ownership of any documents you upload. You retain all rights to your content. By uploading, you grant PropertyCredentials a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display, store, and transmit your content solely for the purpose of operating the Platform.
Home inspection reports are generally the intellectual property of the inspector who created them, while the client who commissioned and paid for the report controls its distribution. PropertyCredentials respects these ownership structures and complies with industry standards, including those set by the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI).
