These measures mean that, subject to the terms of the secondary license that you selected as referenced in Section 4.1 above, you either: 1) need to provide your express permission in sharing User Content through Applications; or 2) you may automatically be opted into having that content be accessible through Applications. You may opt-out of sharing your User Content under 2) above by: a) revoking permission to the Application as specified on the Site; and/or b) choosing a different license.
