Terms & Conditions


Acceptance of Terms

By using the Webpostz in any way you agree to these terms. These Terms of Use ("TOU") are a contract between you and Webpostz and its parents, successors, subsidiaries and affiliates. You agree that this electronic version of these terms has the same force and effect as an agreement in writing. If you cannot or will not follow the provisions in the TOU, you agree not to use the Webpostz.

Webpostz has not been customized for use in any specific territory and, therefore, we do not ensure or assume the responsibility that the Webpostz complies with applicable local laws and regulations in any specific country or jurisdiction, or any territory in which you elect to use the Webpostz. You are solely responsible for compliance with local laws that may be applicable to your use of the Webpostz.

We may modify the TOU at any time without notice. If you do not agree to any changes, you sole remedy is to stop using the Webpostz. Your use of the Webpostz after the effective date of any changes will constitute your agreement to the changes.

Privacy Policy

The only personally identifiable information about you ("PII") (e.g., your name, e-mail or physical address, or telephone number) that the Webpostz receives is any PII you choose to include in the submission form if you submit a site for consideration for inclusion in the Webpostz. We use such PII only in connection with the provision of the Webpostz, and do not use it for marketing purposes. We do not share your PII with any outside companies.

When you use or access the Webpostz, we automatically receive and store certain information from your browser, including your IP address; your browser type; access date and time; the referring Web site address; the Webpostz page you requested; and in the case of a search, the specific search terms requested. We use this information for purposes of security, to learn more about how the Webpostz is used, and to improve the quality and usefulness of the Webpostz. We do NOT link any of this information with PII, and we do not share this information with any outside companies. We reserve the right to create a retention policy for PII and browser information for our business purposes, including the prevention of fraud and abuse of the Webpostz.

If you have any questions regarding your privacy, please contact us at DMOZ staff.

Your Responsibilities When Using the Webpostz

You are responsible for your own activities when using the Webpostz. You will not disrupt the functioning of the Webpostz or otherwise act in a way that interferes with other users' use of the Webpostz or harms others. You will follow all applicable laws and regulations, and will follow this TOU. You will not participate in, facilitate or further illegal activities.

You are solely responsible for the content you upload, transfer, send, mail, forward, post or otherwise provide to us (collectively referred to as "post" in this TOU) and the consequences of sharing or publishing such content with others or the general public. This includes any personal information you choose to submit or share using the Webpostz. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT Webpostz IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CONTACT, INTERACTION, LOSS OF PRIVACY, AND ANY OTHER CONSEQUENCES THAT OCCUR BETWEEN YOU AND ANY OTHER USER OF THE Webpostz OR THE PUBLIC AND THAT THE ENTIRE RISK FALLS ON YOU.

In addition to these terms, if you submit a site for possible inclusion in the Webpostz, you agree to comply with and be bound by the Webpostz Submission Policies.

Discretion Over Content, Use, And Operation of The Webpostz

We may edit, move, or delete any content on the Webpostz (including content that you have provided) or terminate all or part of the Webpostz without notice or liability for any reason at our sole discretion. You acknowledge that Webpostz staff, together with its editors, have unfettered editorial discretion to determine the structure and content of the Webpostz and that, because a site's placement in the directory is subject to change or deletion at any time, you may not rely on any aspect of a site's inclusion in the directory. You agree to waive any claim related to the inclusion, placement, exclusion, or removal of any site in the Webpostz or to the title or description of any site appearing in the Webpostz.

We are not responsible for any failure to remove or delay in removing harmful, inaccurate, unlawful, or otherwise objectionable content on the Webpostz originating with or otherwise provided by third parties.

We may preserve or disclose information about users, including those who submit sites for possible inclusion in the Webpostz, if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that doing so is necessary to (a) comply with legal process; (b) enforce these terms; (c) respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; (d) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Webpostz, its users, or the public; or (e) administer the Webpostz.

Links to Third-Party Sites

We provide links to other internet sites or resources. We do not control these sites and resources, do not endorse them, and are not responsible for any aspects of those sites, including their availability, content, accuracy, legality or delivery of services. You waive any claim resulting from your exposure to material on or through the Webpostz that is offensive, indecent, or otherwise objectionable.

Indemnification

Upon request by us, you will indemnify Webpostz, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, suppliers and employees from all liabilities, claims and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, that arise from a breach of this TOU for which you are responsible or from the user of or conduct on the Webpostz. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you. In that event, you shall have no further obligation to provide indemnification for us in that matter.

Disclaimer / Limitation of Liability

WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS AS TO THE ACCURACY, QUALITY, TIMELINESS, AVAILABILITY, OR COMPLETENESS OF THE INFORMATION, SOFTWARE, PRODUCTS, OR OTHER MATERIALS AVAILABLE THROUGH Webpostz, AND YOU SHOULD NOT RELY UPON THEM. WE PROVIDE THE Webpostz ON AN "AS IS, AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. YOU USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND Webpostz, ITS AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, DISTRIBUTORS, DIRECTORS, AND AGENTS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ITS CONTENT OR DELIVERY, OR FOR ANY FORM OF LOSS OR DAMAGE (INCLUDING ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, EVEN IF KNOWN TO US) THAT MAY RESULT FROM ITS USE. WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. NO WARRANTY NOT SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE VALID. IF ANY OF THE ABOVE PROVISIONS ARE VOID UNDER GOVERNING LAW, OUR LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

Copyright Assignment

(Note: If you are only submitting an URL(s) to be included in the directory, this copyright assignment only applies to the site description that you want included in the Webpostz, but doesn't extend to the actual web site or its content).

To enable us to take appropriate action in the event of infringements by third parties, and in consideration for the opportunity to use and participate in the Webpostz, you hereby assign to Webpostz the copyright in any material (whether site descriptions, directory organization, or otherwise) that you create and submit for inclusion or use in the Webpostz. Webpostz hereby licenses back to you a nonexclusive, royalty-free right to use any such material. You further warrant that you have all rights necessary to authorize the distribution and re-distribution of any material you submit for inclusion or use in the Webpostz. You will provide information that we reasonably request related to any claim that material you submit infringes the rights of a third party.

Proprietary Rights

The content on the Webpostz and its design, structure, and compilation are protected by copyrights, trademarks, service marks, patents, trade secrets, and other proprietary rights and laws. It is very easy to copy things in cyberspace, but not necessarily always acceptable or legal. Unless otherwise noted, you may view, copy, download, and print documents from the Webpostz so long as you use them only for personal, non-commercial purposes and do not post, distribute, or modify them or remove any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices. For permission to use third-party materials appearing on or linked from the Webpostz, please contact the copyright owner.

Claims of Copyright Infringement

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and reserve the right to terminate any user's access to the Webpostz if we are notified that such user's activities infringe the rights of third parties. If you believe that your work has been copied and is accessible on the Webpostz in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please contact us.

General Terms

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Webpostz and governs your use of the Webpostz, superseding any prior agreements. You represent and warrant to us that you have the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement with Webpostz. Additional or different terms and conditions may apply when you use affiliated websites, third-party content, or third-party software. Our failure to enforce any right under this Agreement will not waive that right. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, the Agreement should be interpreted to effect the intent of the parties, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect. You must file any claim or suit related to the Webpostz within one year after it arises. The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no substantive effect.
