We are not liable for any such modification, suspension, discontinuance or removal, and any such action by us will not affect Grab's license to your Content as stated in Section 5 below.

6.1. General. If you are a legal resident of the United States and a holder of a Grab Account in good standing, you are eligible to enroll in the Grab VIP Service (the "VIP Service"). If you are interested in registering for the VIP Service, please [click here]. As part of the registration process, you must read and agree to the VIP Service Supplemental Terms of Use ("Supplemental Terms"). The Supplemental Terms are part of and incorporated into these Terms.
6.2. Gifting. If you have a valid Grab Account in good standing, you may purchase a gift subscription to the VIP Service for another holder of a Grab Account in good standing (the “Recipient”). Gift subscriptions are available for purchase as either 30 day or one year subscriptions. When you purchase a VIP Service subscription for a Grab member, Grab will send a promotional code to Recipient at either Recipient’s Grab email address or to Recipient’s email address of record, as elected by Grab. Upon entry of that promotional code on the Site by Recipient, the gift subscription is activated. If the Recipient is already a member of the VIP Service, the gift subscription is added to the end of the Recipient’s then-current VIP Service subscription. Grab is not responsible for misplaced, lost or stolen promotional codes. Gift Subscriptions are valid in the 50 United States and its territories and possessions only. Gift Subscriptions are not redeemable or refundable for cash under any circumstances and cannot be combined with any other offer, including but not limited to special or free offers. A VIP Service gift subscription will not automatically renew at the end of its term. Payment for gift subscriptions is only accepted through PayPal. If you do not have a PayPal account, you may set up a free account at www.PayPal.com. PayPal and Grab are not affiliated.
6.3. Existing Gold Members. Grab may automatically upgrade your Gold membership to VIP Service membership at no additional cost to you. At the end of your original Gold membership term, you will have to register for the VIP Service to continue receiving the VIP Service.
You must not post to the Service any Content that, as reasonably determined by Grab, is or appears to be:
(a) untrue, misleading, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, invasive to another person's privacy or protected data, hateful, or racially or otherwise objectionable;
(b) infringing upon a third party's intellectual property rights, including any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, right of publicity, including any Content that is the subject of any claim of infringement;

In addition, you may make one additional copy of the software for archival purposes only. To the extent permitted under applicable law, you may not use the Software for any other purpose. You must not post the Software to a public or peer to peer network. Various technologies may not be consistent across all platforms and that the performance and some features offered by Grab may vary depending on your computer and other equipment.
