We may revise and update these Terms of Service from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them, and apply to all access to and use of the Services thereafter. However, any changes to the dispute resolution provisions set out in Governing Law and Jurisdiction will not apply to any disputes for which the parties have actual notice before the date the change is posted on the Website. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of revised Terms of Service means that You accept and agree to the changes. You are expected to check this page from time to time so You are aware of any changes, as they are binding on You.
3. Accessing the Services
We reserve the right to introduce, withdraw or amend websites, or any content, material, product offering or other Services, in our sole discretion without notice. We will not be liable if for any reason all or any part of the Services is unavailable at any time or for any period. From time to time, we may restrict access to some parts of the Services, or the entire Services, to users, including registered users.
You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for You to have access to the Services.

It is a condition of Your use of the Services that all the information You provide to access the Services is correct, current, and complete. You agree that all information You provide to register for these Services or otherwise, including, but not limited to, through the use of any Purchaser-only features, is governed by our Privacy Policy and You consent to all actions we take with respect to Your information consistent with our Privacy Policy.

If You are using a public or shared computer, You also agree to ensure that You exit from Your account at the end of each session.

We have the right to disable any user name, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by You or provided by us, at any time if, in our opinion, You have violated any provision of these Terms of Service.
