The rights that you transfer with this license serve the limited purpose of allowing Tumblr to operate the services in accordance with their functionalities, to improve and advertise the services, and to develop new services. "
Creation of derivative works "within the meaning of this license is not to be understood to mean that Tumblr is granted the right to make significant editorial changes or derivations; however, re-logging is to be made possible, for example, so that subscribers of Tumblr can access subscriber content from a Tumblr blog Transferring another and adding your own text or content before or after the subscriber content.
When you upload your works to Tumblr, you allow us to make them available in any way you expect us to (for example, through your blog, RSS, the Tumblr dashboard, etc.).
