Terms Of Use - DaisyQuotes.com
/ CustomVinylLetteringForWalls.com
Our lawyers made us include this and made us use a precious
button on our home page to get you here. At first, we thought
the lawyers were a real pain. But then we read the page.
What a Netwakening! It's really important stuff. We took
the legalese the lawyers wrote and translated it into readable
English. So be a smart nethead and read the stuff on this
page. It could prevent you from hearing from our lawyers,
or worse yet, from really nasty people, like prosecutors.
Here's the deal:
We run this site so that people like you (and people you
like) can use it for personal entertainment, information,
education, communication, and cybergratification. So go
ahead and browse around all you like. You can even download
stuff from the site but only for non-commercial, personal
use. If you do, though, don't fool around with the copyright
and other notices all over the stuff. They're there for
a really good reason. And don't even think about distributing,
modifying, transmitting, reusing, re-posting, or anything
else uncool with any of the stuff, including the text, images,
audio, and video, for public or commercial purposes unless
we give you written permission. And it's not likely we will.
If you visit our site, you're also legally obligated to
[read: stuck with] the terms and conditions listed below
and any other law or regulation that applies to the site,
the Internet, the World Wide Web, or Los Angeles, CA. You
shouldn't access or browse the site if you have any problem
with that, because once you start, there's no turning back
-- you are bound by [read: stuck with] the terms and conditions.
So here's the scoop on our Top Ten Rules for Cybersurfers
who hang out on our site:
1. For everyone's sake, just assume that everything on
the site is copyrighted unless we say it's not. So you can't
use the stuff except how we say you can on this page or
anywhere else on the site without our written permission.
And like we said before, it's not likely we'll give you
permission anyway. In fact, even if we wanted to, the lawyers
are likely to veto any deal anyway. So it's better you don't
even ask.
2. While we try to include accurate stuff on the site,
we're not promising you it's accurate. In fact, we're not
promising you anything except fun and entertainment. So
if you use stuff on the site, you're using it at your own
risk. Don't call us if there's a problem because we assume
no liability or responsibility for errors or omissions on
the site.
3. We and anybody else who helped us create, produce, or
deliver the site are not liable for any damages you suffer
when you use it. In particular, the lawyers want you to
know that our disclaimer includes "direct, incidental,
consequential, indirect, or punitive damages arising out
of your access to, or use of, the site. Without limiting
the foregoing, everything on the site is provided to you
'AS IS' WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR
NON INFRINGEMENT.
Please note that some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusion
of implied warranties, so some of the above exclusions may
not apply to you. Check your local laws for any restrictions
or limitations regarding the exclusion of implied warranties.
" Ugh! What a mouthful from the mouthpieces. We put
all of that in quotes because we couldn't figure out any
other way to say it that the lawyers would accept. But here's
the bottom line -- we're not responsible if you're browsing
around and the site damages you or your computer or infects
it with any nasty viruses. We sure hope that doesn't happen,
but if it does, don't call us.
4. If you don't want the world to know something, don't
post in on the site in any bulletin board or anyplace else.
That's because anything you disclose to us is ours. That's
right -- ours. So we can do anything we want with the stuff
you post. We can reproduce it, disclose it, transmit it,
publish it, broadcast it, and post it someplace else. We
can even send it to your mother (as soon as we find her
address). Not only that, we can even use any ideas, concepts,
know-how, or techniques you post any way we want to, including,
developing, manufacturing and marketing products or other
stuff using the information you post.
5. Pictures of people or places shown on the site are either
our property or someone else's property we're using with
their permission. No matter what, it's definitely not your
property. You or any of your net-friends can't use it unless
we said you could on this page or somewhere else on the
site. And guess what -- we won't say yes. So be careful,
Bunky, because unauthorized use may violate all sorts of
nasty laws. Be smart, keep the stuff you download to yourself.
6. There's also a lot of trademarks, logos, and service
marks on the site that either we own or we're using with
someone else's permission. So don't think you have any kind
of license or right to use them, because you don't and we're
not about to give you one. If you don't leave them alone
and mess with our trademarks, logos and service marks on
our site, we'll probably go ballistic, so will the companies
that own the other trademarks, logos and service marks.
That means that we're likely to sue you or to ask a prosecutor
to come after you for messing around with our property or
the property of others.
7. You'll probably notice we've linked our site to lots
of others. While that's cool, it doesn't mean we've looked
at all those sites, much less checked them out periodically
to see what's going on. So don't blame us if some site you
link to is bad or has stuff on it that offends you or your
pets. Go ahead and link, but remember, you're doing it at
your risk.
8. That brings us to what you do on our own site. While
we occasionally listen in on chat groups, or look at the
posting in our discussion groups or on our bulletin boards,
we take no responsibility and assume no liability for the
content of those locations or for any mistakes, defamation,
libel, slander, omissions, falsehoods, obscenity, pornography,
or profanity you might encounter when you visit such places
on our site. And don't be stupid by posting or transmitting
any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene,
scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, nasty, mean, or
profane material or any material that law enforcement types
may consider a criminal offense, get someone in court on
a civil lawsuit, or for that matter violate any law -- anywhere,
anytime. While we certainly respect your privacy, we have
no choice but to fully cooperate with any law enforcement
authorities or court which might ask us who might have posted
nasty stuff on our site.
9. Software that we use on this Site is protected by all
sorts of patriotic U.S. laws. Because of that, you can't
download or send the software to anyone in the vacation
travel spots of Cuba, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Iran, Syria,
or any other country where United States has embargoed goods;
or (get this) to anyone on the United States Treasury Department's
list of Specially Designated Nationals, the U.S. Commerce
Department's Table of Deny Orders, or the FBI's Most Wanted
Internet Creeps List (just kidding on the last one). As
if that were not tough enough, if you live in or are a national
of any of those lovely places, you're not even supposed
to be reading this page, so beat it!
10. We're also allowed to change this page and anything
else on the site any time we want to. That's because it's
ours and we have the programmers who can do it. If we do
change the page, then you're bound by [read: stuck with]
those changes, too, whenever you visit our site.
11. If either of us wants to make something of it and wants
to “sue” (a dirty word) then we have to follow
these rules of engagement. (sort of according to the Geneva
Convention):
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of
Utah, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.
To the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened
to violate DaisyQuotes.com / CustomVinylLetteringForWalls.comand/or
its affiliates' intellectual property rights, DaisyQuotes.com
/ CustomVinylLetteringForWalls.comand/or its affiliates
may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state
or federal court in the State of Utah, and you consent to
exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
Any other disputes will be resolved as follows:
If a dispute arises under this agreement, we agree to first
try to resolve it with the help of a mutually agreed-upon
mediator in the following location: Utah County. Any costs
and fees other than attorney fees associated with the mediation
will be shared equally by each of us.
If it proves impossible to arrive at a mutually satisfactory
solution through mediation, we agree to submit the dispute
to binding arbitration at the following location: Utah County,
under the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitration may
be entered in any court with jurisdiction to do so.
If this all sounds kind of mean and undiplomatic, you should
have seen what the lawyers gave to us in the first place.
We had to remind them that human torture and sacrifice was
outlawed in the United States. Boy, did they look disappointed!
