You have to click on the "Nokia Service Terms" link when creating your
account and then pick your country from this list:
https://account.nokia.com/acct/public/termsAndConditionsSupportedCountryList

For the US it says:

"You may be able to submit information or content (“Material”) to the
Service. Nokia does not claim ownership in your Material. Your
submission of Material does not transfer ownership of rights of the
Material to Nokia. Nokia is only transmitting the Material and is not
responsible for editorial control over it. By submitting Material to
the Service you grant Nokia a world-wide, non-exclusive,
sub-licensable, assignable, fully paid-up, royalty-free, perpetual and
irrevocable license to use, copy, publicly perform, display,
distribute in any media and modify the Material to incorporate the
Material into other works, and to grant similar sublicenses to the
extent necessary for Nokia to provide the Service. You may be able to
adjust this grant in the privacy and other settings of the Service."
