  3. USER OBLIGATIONS. By downloading, accessing, or using the Site in order to view any information and materials, register or enter into a transaction with or through ACCCE for any reason, or submit information of any kind, you represent that you are at least eighteen (18) years of age and will, at all times, provide true, accurate, current, and complete information when submitting information or materials on the Site, including, without limitation, when you provide information via a Site registration or submission form. If you provide any false, inaccurate, untrue, or incomplete information, ACCCE reserves the right to terminate immediately your access to and use of the Site. In addition, you agree to abide by all applicable local, state, national, and international laws and regulations with respect to your use of the Site. You also acknowledge and agree that use of the Internet and access to the Site is solely at your own risk. While ACCCE has endeavored to create a secure and reliable Site, you should understand that the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted to/from the Site over the Internet or other form of global communication network cannot be guaranteed. Accordingly, ACCCE is not responsible for the security of any information transmitted to or from the Site. You must make your own determination as to such issues.
  4. OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Additional notices, terms, and conditions may apply to membership, the donation of funds, payment for a program, service, or event, or subscription to a service or solution. You agree to abide by such other notices, terms, and conditions, as applicable. If there is a conflict between this TOU and other notices, terms, and conditions posted to the Site, ACCCE shall resolve any conflict in good faith in its sole discretion but the latter terms shall generally control with respect to such membership, donation, payment, subscription, or participation in or use of such program, service, event, or solution.
  5. PRIVACY POLICY. You understand, acknowledge, and agree that the operation of certain areas of the Site requires or involves the submission, use, and dissemination of various personally identifiable information. Accordingly, if you wish to access and use those areas of the Site, you acknowledge and agree that your use of the Site will constitute acceptance of ACCCE’s personal identifying information collection and use practices. Please see ACCCE’s Privacy Policy for a summary of ACCCE’s personal identifying information collection and use practices.
  6. USER NAME HANDLING POLICY. Registration as a User for access to certain areas of the Site may require both a user name and a password or adherence to other particular access requirements as designated by ACCCE. Only one User can use one user name and password and, thus, one account. By limiting access, it helps avoid unauthorized usage by other persons, institutions, or entities because anyone with knowledge of both your user name and password can gain entry to the restricted portions of the Site and to your account. Accordingly, by using the Site, you agree to consider your user name and password as confidential information and to keep your user name and password confidential. You also agree not to use another User’s user name and password. You will immediately notify ACCCE if you become aware of any loss or theft of your password or any unauthorized use of your user name and password. ACCCE cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these obligations. ACCCE reserves the right to delete or change a user name or password at any time and for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall convey to you any further rights in your account or its information and any and all such content or information shall be subject to this TOU.
  7. MOBILE SERVICES. The Site may offer certain tools or services that are available to you via your mobile phone or other mobile device (collectively, “Mobile Services”). Please note that your mobile carrier’s normal messaging, data, and other rates and fees will apply to your use of the Mobile Services. In addition, downloading, installing, or using certain Mobile Services may be prohibited or restricted by your mobile carrier, and not all Mobile Services may work with all carriers or devices. Therefore, you are responsible for checking with your mobile carrier to determine if the Mobile Services are available for your mobile devices, what restrictions, if any, may be applicable to your use of the Mobile Services, and how much they will cost you. Nevertheless, all use of the Site and its Mobile Services shall be in accordance with this TOU.
  8. POSTINGS.This Site may contain blogs, message boards, comment areas, questionnaires, chat rooms, and other interactive features and functionality where Users can share and post certain information and content. To the extent that the Site contains such communication forums (collectively, “Forums”), you agree that by using the Site you will not upload, post, display, or transmit any of the following materials on the Site’s Forums:• anything that interferes with or disrupts the Site or the operation thereof,• statements or material that defames, harasses, abuses, stalks, threatens, intimidates, or in any way violates the rights of others,• unauthorized copyrighted materials or any other material that infringes on the intellectual property rights, trade secrets, or privacy of others,• statements or material that violates other contractual or fiduciary rights, duties, or agreements,• statements or material that is bigoted, hateful, or racially offensive,• statements or material that encourages criminal conduct or that would give rise to civil liability or otherwise violates any law or regulation in any jurisdiction,• statements or material that constitutes anti-competitive collaboration and/or antitrust violations,• statements or material that contains vulgar, obscene, profane, or otherwise objectionable language or images that typically would not be considered socially or professionally responsible or appropriate in person,• statements or material that harms minors,• statements or material that impersonates any other person or entity, whether actual or fictitious, including, without limitation, employees and representatives of ACCCE,• statements or material that misrepresents your affiliation with any entity and/or ACCCE,• anything that violates the privacy or publicity rights of any other person, including, without limitation, posting any personal identifying information of another individual,• chain letters or pyramid schemes,• statements or materials that are deceptive or misleading,• statements or material that constitutes junk mail, spam, or unauthorized advertising or promotional materials,• statements or material that are “off-topic” for a designated Forum, and• files that contain malicious code, viruses, corrupted files, or any other similar software or programs that may damage the operation of another’s computer, network, or the Site.
  9. PERMISSION TO USE POSTINGS. Forums are the resources and property of ACCCE and/or its licensors and you will not have any proprietary interest in any Forum. Moreover, by submitting content or information of any type (a “Posting”) to a Forum or other portion of the Site or by otherwise using the Site to transmit or display a Posting, you automatically grant ACCCE a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive right and license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, transmit, perform, and display such content or information (in whole or in part) worldwide and/or to incorporate into other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed for the full term of any rights that may exist in such content or information. You represent that you have all necessary rights to make the Posting available to ACCCE and a Forum, and you also acknowledge that such Postings are non-confidential for all purposes and that ACCCE has no control over the extent to which any idea or information may be used by any party or person once it’s posted or displayed. Accordingly, notwithstanding this right and license, it is understood that by merely permitting your information, content, and materials to appear on the Site ACCCE has not become and is not a publisher of such information, content, and materials and is merely functioning as an intermediary to enable you to provide and display a Posting. Moreover, ACCCE assumes no responsibility for the deletion of or failure to store any Posting and recommends that you do not post, display, or transmit any confidential or sensitive information. All Users shall remain responsible for their own Postings.
  10. NO PRE-SCREENING OF POSTINGS. ACCCE is not responsible for screening, policing, editing, or monitoring your or another User’s Postings and encourages all of its Users to use reasonable discretion and caution in evaluating or reviewing any Posting. Moreover, and except as provided below with respect to ACCCE’s right and ability to delete or remove a Posting (or any part thereof), ACCCE does not endorse, oppose, or edit any opinion or information provided by you or another User and does not make any representation with respect to, nor does it endorse the accuracy, acceptability, completeness, timeliness, or reliability of any advice, opinion, statement, or other material displayed, uploaded, or distributed by you or any other User. Nevertheless, ACCCE reserves the right to monitor, delete, or take other action with respect to Postings (or parts thereof) that ACCCE believes in good faith violate this TOU and/or are, or are potentially, unlawful or harmful to ACCCE or its affiliates, members, volunteers, services, programs, or goodwill. If you violate this TOU, ACCCE may, in its sole discretion, delete the unacceptable content from your Posting, remove or delete the Posting in its entirety, issue you a warning regarding your use of the Site, and/or terminate your use of the Site. Moreover, it is a policy of ACCCE to take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act under U.S. Copyright Law and other applicable intellectual property laws. If you become aware of Postings that violate these rules regarding acceptable behavior or content, you may contact ACCCE as provided below.
  11. COPYRIGHT; DESIGNATED AGENT FOR NOTIFICATION OF CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT. ACCCE respects the intellectual property of others, and it asks its Users to do the same. Accordingly, it is ACCCE’s policy to respond to a notice of alleged infringement that complies with U.S. Copyright Law, and in particular, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Responses may include removing or disabling access to content or material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity and/or terminating your right to access and use the Site. But, you acknowledge that you may be liable for damages, including attorneys’ fees and costs, if you materially misrepresent that a work or activity is infringing your rights. If ACCCE terminates or suspends a User’s access to or use of the Site, ACCCE will make a good-faith attempt (as warranted) to contact the person who posted the content so that they may make counter notification pursuant to applicable laws. It is ACCCE’s policy to document all notices of alleged infringement upon which ACCCE decides to take action. As with all legal notices, a copy of the notice may be sent to one or more third parties who may make such notice available to the public. If you believe that one or more of your works have been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide a written notice of your claim of copyright infringement that is directed to ACCCE’s designated agent as specified below along with the following information:• A signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest that is allegedly infringed;• A description, in reasonable detail (including any applicable URL address), of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;• A description, in reasonable detail, of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Site;• Your address, telephone number, and e-mail address;• A statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and• A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your written notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.• Designated Agent:

You access the Site on your own volition and are responsible for compliance with all applicable local laws with respect to your access and use of the Site. A printed version of this TOU and of any related notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this TOU to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.

  20. ENFORCING SECURITY ON THE SITE. Actual or attempted unauthorized use of the Site may result in criminal and/or civil prosecution, including, without limitation, punishment under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 under U.S. federal law. ACCCE reserves the right to view, monitor, and record activity on the Site without notice or permission from you, including, without limitation, by archiving notices or communications sent by you through the Site.

  21. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. You acknowledge that any breach, threatened or actual, of this TOU, including, without limitation, with respect to unauthorized use of ACCCE proprietary assets, will cause irreparable injury to ACCCE, such injury would not be quantifiable in monetary damages, and ACCCE would not have an adequate remedy at law. You therefore agree that ACCCE shall be entitled, in addition to other available remedies, to seek and be awarded an injunction or other appropriate equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining any breach, threatened or actual, of your obligations under any provision of this TOU. Accordingly, you hereby waive any requirement that ACCCE post any bond or other security in the event any injunctive or equitable relief is sought by or awarded to ACCCE to enforce any provision of this TOU.
  22. TERM AND TERMINATION. This TOU will take effect at the moment you click “ACCEPT”, register, respond to a request for information, and/or begin downloading, accessing, or using the Site, whichever is earliest. ACCCE reserves the right at any time and on reasonable grounds, which shall include, without limitation, any reasonable belief of fraudulent or unlawful activity or actions or omissions that violate any term or condition of this Agreement, to deny your access to the Site or to any portion thereof in order to protect its name and goodwill, its business, and/or other Users, and this TOU will also terminate automatically if you fail to comply with its terms and conditions, subject to the survival rights of certain provisions identified below. Termination will be effective without notice and may impact your membership status with ACCCE. You may also terminate this TOU at any time by ceasing to use the Site, but all applicable provisions of this TOU will survive termination, as identified below, and each re-access or use of the Site will reapply this TOU (then in effect) to you. Upon termination, you must destroy all copies of any aspect of the Site in your possession. The provisions concerning ACCCE’s proprietary rights, feedback and submissions, indemnity, disclaimers of warranty and liability, admissibility of this TOU, waiver and severability, entire agreement, and governing law will survive the termination of this TOU for any reason.
  23. WAIVER & SEVERABILITY. Failure to insist on strict performance of any of the terms and conditions of this TOU will not operate as a waiver of any subsequent default or failure of performance. No waiver by ACCCE of any right under this TOU will be deemed to be either a waiver of any other right or provision or a waiver of that same right or provision at any other time. If any part of this TOU is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and the liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most clearly matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of this TOU shall continue in effect.
  24. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. No joint venture, partnership, employment, affiliate, or agency relationship exists between you and ACCCE as result of this TOU or your utilization of the Site. This TOU and ACCCE’s Privacy Policy represent the entire agreement between you and ACCCE with respect to use of the Site, and they supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral, or written between you and ACCCE with respect to the Site. You may not assign or transfer any rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of ACCCE. Please note that ACCCE reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of this TOU by posting a revised TOU or mailing and/or e-mailing notice thereof to you. In addition, ACCCE may add, modify, or delete any aspect, program, or feature of the Site, but ACCCE is not under any obligation to add any upgrade, enhancement, or modification. Your continued use of the Site following any announced change will be conclusively deemed acceptance of any change to the terms and conditions of this TOU. Accordingly, please review the TOU found at this location on a periodic basis.
