AGREEMENT BETWEEN USER AND SCRIPPS RANCH CIVIC ASSOCIATION

Welcome to Scripps Ranch Civic Association (the “SRCA”). SCRA is comprised of various web sites and web pages operated by SRCA or its partners (“Partners”). These include: www.scrippsranch.org, as well as other web sites we may add in the future (collectively the “SRCA Sites”).

With respect to your access and use of the SRCA Sites, SRCA provides its services to you, subject to the following Terms of Use (“TOU”), which may be updated by SRCA from time to time without notice to you, and which updates become effective when posted. You are responsible for regularly reviewing these terms and conditions.

In addition, when using particular SRCA web sites or services, you and SRCA shall be subject to any posted guidelines or rules applicable to such sites or services which may be posted from time to time. All such guidelines or rules are hereby incorporated by reference into these TOU. In the event that any of the terms, conditions, and notices contained herein conflict with such guidelines or rules, then these terms shall control.

You agree to be bound by these TOU, and indicate such agreement by any use of SRCA Sites and services. If you do not agree to these TOU, do not access and use the SRCA Sites and services.

1. PERMITTED USE. Subject to these TOU, SRCA hereby grants you the right to access and use the SRCA Sites. Unless otherwise specified herein, or agreed-upon by SRCA, the SRCA Sites are for your personal, non-commercial use only. SRCA retains all rights with respect to the SRCA Sites except those expressly granted to you in this Agreement. You agree not to duplicate, publish, modify, or otherwise distribute the material on the SRCA Sites unless specifically authorized in writing by SRCA to do so. You agree not to frame, or assist third parties in framing, any of the web pages contained in the SRCA Sites. Such framing is strictly prohibited under this Agreement. The content and software on the SRCA Sites are the proprietary property of SRCA and/or its suppliers and Partners and are protected by U.S. and international copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not 'meta-search' the SRCA Sites. The names of actual companies or organizations listed on the SRCA Sites may be the trademarks of their respective owners.

2. LINKS TO THIRD PARTY SITES. The SRCA Sites may contain links or produce search results that reference links to third party web sites (“Linked Sites”). SRCA has no control over these Linked Sites or the content within them. SRCA cannot and does not guarantee, represent, or warrant that the content contained in the Linked Sites, including, without limitation other links, is accurate, legal, and/or inoffensive. SRCA does not endorse the content of any Linked Site, nor do we warrant that a Linked Site will not contain computer viruses or other harmful code that can impact your computer or other web access device. By using the SRCA Sites to search for or link to another site, you agree and understand that such use is entirely at your own risk, and that you may not make any claim against SRCA for any damages or losses whatsoever resulting from such use. However, if you experience a problem with a Linked Site, please let us know at webmaster@scrippsranch.org, and we will investigate the link and take appropriate action.

3. NO UNLAWFUL OR PROHIBITED USE. As a condition of your use of the SRCA Sites, you warrant to SRCA that you will not use the SRCA Sites for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by these TOU. You agree not to use the SRCA Sites in any manner which could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the SRCA Sites or interfere with any other party’s use and enjoyment of the SRCA Sites. You may not obtain or attempt to obtain any materials or information through any means not intentionally made available or provided for through the SRCA Sites.

4. USE OF SRCA COMMUNITY SERVICES. If you participate in any chat rooms, bulletin boards, or other forum (collectively “Community Services”) within the site, you agree that any information, including without limitation discussion posts, chat posts, web links, advertisements, articles, white papers, and reviews, posted by you:

SRCA reserves the right to terminate your access to any or all of the Community Services at any time without notice for any reason whatsoever. SRCA does not control or endorse the content, messages, or information found in any Community Service, and, therefore, SRCA expressly disclaims any liability with regard to the Community Services and any action resulting from your participation in the Community Services.

12. GENERAL. These TOU shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California without giving effect to its conflict of laws provisions. Both parties submit to personal jurisdiction by and venue in the state and federal courts in the State of California, County of San Diego, and further agree that any cause of action arising under these TOU shall be brought in such venue. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SRCA may, at any time, seek injunctive or other equitable relief, wherever it deems appropriate, to protect or enforce its rights under this Agreement. If any provision of these TOU is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced. Headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section. SRCA’s failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive its right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. These TOU and the terms and conditions contained herein sets forth the entire understanding and agreement between us with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous understanding whether in written or oral form.
