IntheAgora.com and "ITA" are all copyrighted terms belonging to the authors. In using ITA you recognize that all content is provided on an as-is basis, and that no factual statement on this site should be relied upon without further investigation on your part sufficient to satisfy you in your independent judgment that it is true.

2. You agree to use ITA in accordance with these Terms of Use. Accessing ITA, in any manner, for the purpose of obtaining information, technical or otherwise, about ITA constitutes use of ITA such that the party accessing ITA is bound by these Terms of Use.

By continuing to use ITA after we post any such changes, you accept the Terms of Use, as modified.

Comments

8. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the comments on ITA by readers were, are and will always be the sole opinions of the individuals leaving them. In no way does ITA or an individual author endorse, condone, agree with, sponsor, etc. these comments. Responsibility for what is posted on comments, bulletin boards, web logs, chat rooms and other public posting areas on ITA lies with each user - you alone are responsible for the material you post. ITA does not control the messages, information or files that you or others may provide through ITA.

9. You understand that ITA has no obligation to monitor any comments, bulletin boards, chat rooms, web logs, or other areas of ITA through which users can supply information or material. However, ITA reserves the right at all times to refuse to post or to remove any information or materials, in whole or in part, that in ITA's or an individual author's sole discretion are objectionable or in violation of these Terms of Service. Further, ITA reserves the right to disclose any information as necessary to satisfy any law, regulation or governmental request.

10. All commercial spam - whether as comments, sent in email form, or otherwise - is subject to the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, all relevant state and federal laws, and all other provisions of the ITA Terms of Use.

Online Commerce

11. In addition, ITA may allow you to purchase many different types of products and services online that are provided by third parties. ITA is not responsible for the quality, accuracy, timeliness, reliability or any other aspect of these products and services. If you make a purchase from a merchant on ITA or on a site linked to by ITA, the information obtained during your visit to that merchant's online store or site, and the information that you give as part of the transaction, such as your credit card number and contact information, is collected by the merchant. A merchant may have separate privacy and data collection practices. ITA has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies. For more information regarding a merchant, its online store, and its privacy policies, return to that merchant's home page and click on its information links or contact the merchant website directly. You release ITA and its affiliates from any damages that you incur, and agree not to assert any claims against them, arising from your purchase or use of any products or services made available by third parties through Intheagora.com.
