If a user has their account deleted or terminated then Bossa (in its sole discretion) the remaining users will remain part of the Group. If any UGC produced by the Group is Independent UGC this will be co-owned by the Group and the terms governing Independent UGC will apply.
11.7. Once all members of a Group have confirmed that the UGC produced by the Group can be made publicly available in the Game this cannot be removed by the Group or any member if it.
11.8. Rewarding UGC. Bossa may reward users for UGC developed by them whether this is Independent UGC, UGC and whether worked on individually or part of a Group “(Rewards”). If you are in a Group the Rewards will be distributed to each current Group member at the date that the Rewards are distributed and who have registered their email addresses and contact details with Bossa to enable Bossa to distribute the Rewards. Bossa will have no liability to Group members who have left the Group or who may later join or who have failed to provide their email addresses and contact details.

12.2. Purchases of Virtual Items are subject to the terms of any TPSP through which your purchase is made.
