In the event that the quality, appearance or style of the Co-stream ceases to be acceptable to Capcom, Capcom will have the right, in its sole discretion, to withdraw Co-streamer’s approval.
  2. Application to the Official Capcom Co-Stream program does not guarantee acceptance by Capcom Participation as an Official Capcom Co-Streamer is subject to approval by Capcom.
  3. Co-streamer must co-stream the entirety of the CAPCOM Stream which they have been authorized to broadcast.
  4. Capcom may record, reproduce, host, cache, display, perform, distribute, broadcast, transmit and stream any part of the Co-stream for the advertising and promotion of Capcom, the Capcom Pro Tour and Capcom games.
  5. Co-streamer must keep the Co-stream free of any overlay on top of the CAPCOM Stream, including, but not limited to, overlay graphics or text on top of the feed, such as displaying advertisements during breaks or commercials.

  7. The Co-stream may not be disparaging, defamatory, or harmful in any way to the Capcom Stream, Capcom, the Capcom Pro Tour, or Capcom games; and will not interfere with or detract from the public image of the CAPCOM Stream, Capcom, the Capcom Pro Tour, or Capcom games. Co-streamer must refrain from advertising or mentioning non-Capcom games.

    2. The Logo should be easily readable against the Co-stream background and avoid busy, high-contrast, and patterned backgrounds; and
    3. The Logo should have blank, padded space around it, a minimum to half the height of the Logo as applied to the overlay.
