Parental Control

Parental control protections (such as computer hardware, software, or filtering services) are commercially available to assist you in limiting access to material that is harmful to minors. 47 U.S.C.S.§ 230(d) requires us to tell you that you may obtain these types of tools from the commercial providers, such as KidsWatch, AVG Family Safety, Safe Eyes, Netgear Live Parental Controls, NETBLOX, and ZoneAlarm SocialGuard. We do not sponsor or endorse and we are not affiliated with any of these providers.

No Endorsement of Third Party Websites, Products, or Services

The Site or the Services may contain or feature references (including without limitation advertisements, hypertext or other links to other websites or applications) that are not owned, operated, controlled or reviewed by us. These references and links are provided solely as a courtesy and convenience to you and do not constitute sponsorship, endorsement, or recommendation by us or other affiliation with us. WE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY FROM DAMAGES THAT MAY RESULT FROM THE ACCESSING OR USE OF ANY THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES OR THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS.

Changes to Terms of Use

If there is a change to these Terms of Use, we will post the new Terms of Use on the Site. By continuing to access or otherwise use the Sites or the Services, you agree to be legally bound by any such new Terms of Use.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms of Use shall be interpreted under and governed by the laws of the State of California, without reference to its choice-of-law provisions.

Miscellaneous

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to matters set forth in these Terms of Use and supersede any prior or contemporaneous understanding or agreement; and there are no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms of Use. These Terms of Use will bind and inure to the benefit of any assignees or successors in interest of or to you or us. Section and paragraph headings in these Terms of Use are used for convenience and reference only and in no way define, limit, extend or otherwise describe the scope or intent of these Terms of Use and may not affect the meaning or interpretation of these Terms of Use. If any provision of these Terms of Use is deemed invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be reformed and construed consistently with applicable law as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of these Terms of Use; and in any event, the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use will remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any of the provisions of these Terms of Use is a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor does any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
