Forums are the resources and property of Pälish 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 Pälish Electronic Platforms or by otherwise using the Pälish Electronic Platforms to transmit or display a Posting, you automatically grant Pälish 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 Pälish and a Forum, and you also acknowledge that such Postings are non-confidential for all purposes and that Pälish has no control over the extent to which any idea or information may be used by any party or person once it is 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 Pälish Electronic Platforms Pälish 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, Pälish 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.
Pälish 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 Pälish’s right and ability to delete or remove a Posting (or any part thereof), Pälish 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, Pälish reserves the right to monitor, delete, or take other action with respect to Postings (or parts thereof) that Pälish believes in good faith violate this Agreement and/or are, or are potentially, unlawful or harmful to Pälish or its affiliates, volunteers, services, or goodwill. If you violate this Agreement, Pälish may, in its sole discretion, delete the unacceptable content from your Posting, remove or delete the Posting in its entirety, issue you a warning, and/or terminate your use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms.
Your Responsibilities
You agree to comply with all applicable law in connection with your use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms, and such further limitations as may be set forth in any written or on-screen notice from Pälish (provided in connection with your use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms). As a further condition of your use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms, you warrant that you will not use the Pälish Electronic Platforms for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by this Agreement. You access the Pälish Electronic Platforms on your own volition and are responsible for compliance with all applicable local laws with respect to your access and use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms.

Registration as a user for access to certain areas of the Pälish Electronic Platforms or in connection with recurring visits or purchasing may require both a user name and a password or adherence to other particular access requirements as designated by Pälish. 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 Pälish Electronic Platforms and to your account. Accordingly, by using the Pälish Electronic Platforms, you agree to consider your user name and password as confidential information and to keep your user name and password confidential. You will immediately notify Pälish if you become aware of any loss or theft of your password or any unauthorized use of your user name and password. Pälish will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these obligations. Pälish 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 Agreement.
By using the Pälish Electronic Platforms, you agree not to violate or attempt to violate the security of the Pälish Electronic Platforms, including, without limitation, actions such as:
· Accessing data not intended for you or logging into a server or account that you are not authorized to access;
· Attempting to probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of a system or network or to breach security or authentication measures without proper authorization;
· Attempting to interfere with service to any user, host, or network, including, without limitation, by way of submitting a virus to or overloading, “flooding,” “spamming,” “mailbombing,” or “crashing” the Pälish Electronic Platforms;
· Sending unsolicited e-mail, including promotions and/or advertising of products or services; and
· Forging any TCP/IP packet header or any part of the header information in any e-mail or Posting.
Actual or attempted unauthorized use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms 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. Pälish reserves the right to view, monitor, and record activity on the Pälish Electronic Platforms without notice or permission from you, including, without limitation, by archiving notices or communications sent by you through the Pälish Electronic Platforms. Any information obtained by monitoring, reviewing, or recording is subject to review by law enforcement organizations in connection with investigation or prosecution of possible criminal or unlawful activity on the Pälish Electronic Platforms as well as to disclosures required by or under applicable law or related government agency actions. Pälish will also comply with all court orders or subpoenas involving requests for such information. In addition to the foregoing, Pälish reserves the right to, at any time and without notice, modify, suspend, terminate, or interrupt operation of or access to the Pälish Electronic Platforms, or any portion of the Pälish Electronic Platforms in order to protect the Pälish Electronic Platforms, Pälish, or Pälish’s business or goodwill.

Injunctive Relief
You acknowledge that any breach, threatened or actual, of this Agreement, including, without limitation, with respect to unauthorized use of Pälish proprietary assets, will cause irreparable injury to Pälish, such injury would not be quantifiable in monetary damages, and Pälish would not have an adequate remedy at law. You therefore agree that Pälish 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 Agreement. Accordingly, you hereby waive any requirement that Pälish post any bond or other security in the event any injunctive or equitable relief is sought by or awarded to Pälish to enforce any provision of this Agreement.
Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Pälish and its affiliates, successors and assigns, and its directors, officers, employees, agents, co-branders or other partners from and against any and all allegations, claims, demands, actions, causes of action, proceedings (whether threatened or pending), orders, damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses, and judgments of any kind or nature, incurred by Pälish arising out of or relating to your use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms and your violation of this Agreement or relating to any payment dispute with a third-party provider arising from a purchase or incurrence of fees made by you.
Term and Termination
This Agreement will take effect at the moment you click “ACCEPT”, register, respond to a request for information, and/or begin downloading, accessing, or using the Pälish Electronic Platforms, whichever is earliest. Pälish 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 Pälish Electronic Platforms or to any portion thereof in order to protect its name and goodwill, its business, and/or other users, and this Agreement 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. You may also terminate this Agreement at any time by ceasing to use the Pälish Electronic Platforms, but all applicable provisions of this Agreement will survive termination, as identified below, and each re-access or use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms will reapply this Agreement (then in effect) to you. Upon termination, you must destroy all copies of any aspect of the Pälish Electronic Platforms in your possession. The provisions concerning Pälish’s proprietary rights, feedback and submissions, indemnity, disclaimers of warranty and liability, waiver and severability, miscellaneous legal terms, and governing law will survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.
Miscellaneous Legal Provisions
We may discontinue the Pälish Electronic Platforms at any time and for any reason, without notice. We may change the contents, operation, or any and all other features of the Pälish Electronic Platforms at any time for any reason, without notice. We may discontinue or restrict your use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms at any time for any reason, without notice.
You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and Pälish as a result of this Agreement or your use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms. Nothing contained in this Agreement is in derogation of Pälish’s right to comply with governmental, court, and law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your use of the Pälish Electronic Platforms or information provided to or gathered by Pälish with respect to such use. A printed version of this Agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this Agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.
The failure of Pälish to enforce any provisions of this Agreement or respond to a breach by you or other parties shall not in any way waive its right to enforce subsequently any terms or conditions of this Agreement or to act with respect to similar breaches.
If any provision in this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, and the invalid unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision.
This Agreement is the entire and final Agreement regarding the Pälish Electronic Platforms and their content, and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous communications between Pälish and you regarding the Pälish Electronic Platforms and their contents.
All rights not expressly granted herein are hereby reserved.
