#How to copyright your work on wattpad license
The wording is different and shorter than the Naver terms quoted in the question, but in both cases the poster grants the service a non-exclusive license to the content. Legally this means you give us a nonexclusive license to publish your content on the Wattpad Services, including anything reasonably related to publishing it (like storing, displaying, reformatting, and distributing it). When you post content to Wattpad, we need the legal permission under applicable copyright laws to display that content to users of the Wattpad Services. However, for some Naver Services, it may be difficult to delete or make your contents private, so please check the details provided by Information and Notice sections under each Service and Help section under the Customer Center. Also, you may request measures to delete, make your contents private, or exclude your contents from search results to the Customer Center. If management functions to delete or make your contents private are provided within the Naver service, you may directly control others’ use of or access to your contents. Naver is committed to providing various means of making it easier for you to manage Naver or other users’ use of or access to the contents that you provide. Naver will do its best to provide you with more convenient and useful service through continuous research and development. in order to improve Naver Services and offer new Naver Services. Moreover, valuable contents that you provide may be used by Naver and its affiliates for purposes of research and development related to artificial intelligence technology, etc. If Naver unavoidably needs to use your contents for other purposes, we will explain it to you and receive your consent in advance. Pursuant to applicable laws such as the Copyright Act of the Republic of Korea, Naver will exercise such license granted by you, to use your contents, only to the limited extent of exposing the contents within Naver Services, utilizing them for promotion of Services, conducting research and development on service operation, improving and developing new services complying with legal obligations such as web accessibility allowing search, collection and links from other sites. Since you will be granting Naver such license by posting the content, you must have the necessary rights to do so. Meanwhile, in order to duly provide the posts that you have posted through Naver Services, Naver needs to have a legitimate right to use your contents such as a license to store, copy, reproduce, modify, publicly transmit, display, distribute, and create derivative works (only limited to translation) of such contents (license without any restriction on term or territory and royalty free).

Naver hopes your posts shared with other users through Naver Services will enrich the lives of all of us. We will value all contents provided by you. The relevant section of Naver services, I think, says all this. It doesn't help that the Wattpad Help Ceneter has been suddenly and explicitly shut down. How will it affect the copyright of user-made content? We already suspect that Naver is probably probing the site, and maybe even cataloging it for "data collection.Īlso, when exactly is the "second quarter of Wattpad’s fiscal year."?
Some of my friends have already done it, and fear that I will have to delete all of my content so Naver cannot own it. Once you delete your content, Wattpad no longer retains it. Reading the Naver terms of service, it seems that when the sale goes through, Naver will now own all user content. However, I am highly concerned with the effects of the deal, as I found out from my friends. The linked article says "acquisition expected to close in the second quarter of Wattpad’s fiscal year."
To my knowledge, Wattpad has allowed users to retain the copyright on their content published on the site, as supported by this Quoara. On January 19, the Naver buy of Wattpad was reported.
