As a condition of use, you agree not to use the Site for any purpose that is unlawful. You agree to abide by all applicable local, state, national, and international laws and regulations, including, without limitation, all intellectual property laws (such as U.S. copyright laws). Any unauthorized use of the Site is expressly prohibited. By way of example, you agree not to (a) take any action, or (b) upload, download, post, submit or have DDS upload or post on your behalf or otherwise distribute or facilitate distribution of any material and/or content, using any communications service or other service available on or through the Site, that:

  • infringes any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, right of publicity, or other right of any other person or entity; or is threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, libelous, deceptive, fraudulent, invasive of another’s privacy, tortious, offensive, profane, pornographic, or obscene, or promotes hate or incites violence; or
  • misrepresents the source, identity, or content of information transmitted via the Site; or
  • constitutes unauthorized or unsolicited advertising, junk or bulk email (“spamming”) or a chain letter, a pyramid scheme, petitions for signatures, charity requests, or any other similar solicitation; or
  • contains software viruses or any other computer codes, files, or programs that are designed or intended to disrupt, damage, limit, or interfere with the proper function of any software, hardware, or telecommunications equipment or to damage or obtain unauthorized access to any system, data, or other information of DDS or any third party; or
  • impersonates, or falsely indicates an affiliation with, any person or entity, including, without limitation, any employee or representative of DDS; or
  • collects, or attempts to collect, personal information about users without their consent or constitutes a solicitation, for commercial purposes, of any users of the Site; or
  • otherwise violates these Terms, the Privacy Policy, or any other policy posted on the Site.

Additionally, you agree that you will not: (i) take any action that imposes, or may impose, in DDS’s sole discretion, an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on DDS’s infrastructure; (ii) interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the Site or any activities conducted on the Site; (iii) alter or modify any part of the website; (iv) bypass any measures DDS may use to prevent or restrict access to the Site, other accounts, or computer systems or networks connected to the Site; or (v) interfere with any other user’s enjoyment of the Site, including, without limitation, accessing an account of a DDS user that is not yours.

In addition, you may not remove any proprietary notices, marks, or labels.

You shall not launch or otherwise use any robot, spider, scraper, or other automated means to access the Service in a manner which sends more request messages to the DDS server in any given period of time than a typical human would normally produce in the same period by using a conventional online web browser to read, view, and submit materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we grant the operators of search engines permission to use robots to copy materials from the site for the sole purpose of creating publicly-available searchable indexes of the materials, but not caches or archives of the materials, provided that we reserve the right to revoke these exceptions either generally or in specific cases.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL WE AND/OR OUR OFFICERS, OWNERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND/OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE, HOWEVER IT ARISES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIM FOR PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, COMPUTER AND/OR DEVICE OR TECHNOLOGY FAILURE OR ANY ALLEGED COMPUTER VIRUS, COMMUNICATION LINE FAILURE, THEFT OR DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY, AND/OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO, ALTERATION OF, OR USE OF OR POSTING OF ANY RECORD, CONTENT, OR TECHNOLOGY, PERTAINING TO OR ON THE SITE. YOU AGREE THAT THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY APPLIES WHETHER SUCH ALLEGATIONS ARE FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORTIOUS BEHAVIOR, NEGLIGENCE, OR FALL UNDER ANY OTHER CAUSE OF ACTION, REGARDLESS OF THE BASIS UPON WHICH LIABILITY IS CLAIMED AND EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE.

Interpretation: These Terms were written in English (U.S.). To the extent any translated version of this Agreement conflicts with the English version, the English version controls.

Statement of Rights and Responsibilities: These Terms govern our relationship with you and others who interact with the Site as well as other products and services (our “Services”), if any. By using or accessing the Site or our Services, you agree to these Terms, as updated from time to time.

Privacy: Your privacy is very important to us. We designed our Privacy Policy to make important disclosures about how you can use the Site and how we collect and can use the content and information you share with us. We encourage you to read the Privacy Policy, and to use it to help you make informed decisions.

Advertising: We may run advertisements and promotions from third parties on the Site. Your business dealings or correspondence with, or participation in promotions of, advertisers other than us, and any terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such third party. We are not responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred by you as the result of any such dealings or as the result of the presence of third-party advertisers on the Site.

Termination: If you violate the letter or spirit of these Terms, or otherwise create risk or possible legal exposure for us, we can stop providing all or part of the Site and/or Services to you.

Disputes: You will resolve any claim, cause of action or dispute you have with us arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site exclusively in the U.S. District Court of California, and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating all such claims. The laws of the State of California will govern these Terms, as well as any other claim that might arise between you and us, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

These Terms shall be deemed a joint work product of you and us, and may not be construed against either party by reason of its/his/her preparation or word processing. If any term of this Agreement is to any extent illegal, otherwise invalid, or incapable of being enforced, such term shall be excluded to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability; all other terms hereof shall remain in full force and effect; and, to the extent permitted and possible, the invalid or unenforceable term shall be deemed replaced by a term that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of such invalid or unenforceable term. The section headings contained herein are for convenience only and shall not impact the meaning or effect on the content of the Terms.

If you access the Site from outside the United States, you accept full responsibility for compliance with local laws. Any amendment to or waiver of these Terms must be made in writing and signed by us. You will not transfer any of your rights or obligations under these Terms to anyone else without our written consent. All of our rights and obligations under these Terms are freely assignable by us in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, or by operation of law or otherwise.
