When we
use the term “Post”, “Posted” or “Posting” we are referring to each and every
time you submit, provide, furnish, share, message, instant message, exchange, transmit
or communicate any information, ideas, images, audio-visual material, opinions,
files, messages). In fact any time you communicate or make anything available
or accessible on the Site you will have “Posted” it. With respect to each Post submitted by you, you grant us a
perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free right and non-exclusive license to use,
distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, publicly perform and publicly
display such Post on the Site and/or in connection with the applicable Service. The preceding license grant does not
apply to Personal Information submitted by you which will be treated in
accordance with our Privacy Policy. We shall be free to use any
ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in any Posting, including
but not limited to developing, manufacturing, and marketing products or
services incorporating or otherwise based on such Posting.
You are
solely responsible and liable for Postings made under your user ID, name, user
name, email address, password and/or your registration, subscription and/or
profile information, if any. Postings do not reflect our views and we do not
represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of any
Posting, nor do we endorse or support any opinions or ideas expressed in any
Posting. In no event shall we have or be construed to have any responsibility
or liability for or in connection with any Posting. If we determine, in our
sole discretion, you have not complied with any of our Terms or if, in our
judgment, you or any Posting violates these Terms, we reserve the right, at any
time, without notice and without limiting any and all other rights we may have,
at law or in equity, to (a) refuse to allow you to Post again, (b) remove and
delete your profile, any Postings, your registration, subscription, user ID,
user name or any other indicia or authorization to use all or any of our Site,
(c) revoke your registration and right to use all or any of our Services, and
(d) use any technological, legal, operational or other means available to
enforce these Terms, including, without limitation, blocking specific IP
addresses or deactivating your registration, access rights using your e-mail
address, your user ID, user name and/or password.
Our Site
has a finite, and therefore limited, capacity and some Postings and messages
may not be processed in a timely fashion or at all, and some features or
functions may be restricted or delayed or become inoperable. You acknowledge
and agree we assume no liability, responsibility or obligation to transmit,
process, store, receive or deliver any Postings or messages or for any failure,
inaccuracy or delay. Do not rely on the timeliness or performance of our Site
for any transactions, Posting, messages or other communications.
