GENERAL PROVISIONS
Routeware Communications
To use the Service, Users must create a profile (“Profile”), and Users must provide a valid email address in order to create a Profile. Routeware utilizes email as a vital and primary communication channel to communicate with Users, who acknowledge and grant Routeware permission to communicate by email for any purpose Routeware determines to be relevant, including, but not limited to, system messages, product updates, alerts, notices, bulletins, newsletters, service announcements and other marketing messages. Routeware will use its best efforts to honor each User’s requests to opt out of marketing messages, but under no circumstances will Routeware have any liability for sending any email to a User. Routeware assures Users that under no circumstances will it knowingly share personal and/or email information with any third party not affiliated with Routeware.
User Privileges
User privileges are granted by Routeware specifically and exclusively to Users only. User privileges cannot be assigned, sublicensed, distributed, shared, viewed, accessed, or otherwise transferred to anyone without the express written permission of Routeware. Routeware requires that each registered User maintain a valid email address, Member ID and password, which shall be utilized for logging on to the Routeware Web Site. Users are not permitted to share their login information with others. Routeware has the right to refuse service to any User that refuses to abide by the Terms and Conditions or abuses their rights related to the Routeware Service and/or Web Site.
Submission of Information and Administration of Profiles
User agrees not to submit, or post to any Profile, any descriptions, photographs, financial, contact or other information unless User has received all necessary rights and authorizations, including from the photographer and/or copyright owner of any photographs, to publish and advertise on the User’s Profile. User agrees not to submit, or post to any Profile, any image that contains inappropriate, explicit or unauthorized content. Routeware may, in its sole discretion, remove any Profile that violates this provision. In addition, Routeware may require additional evidence of compliance with this provision from Users who are alleged to have created Profiles or submitted information in violation of this Agreement. Routeware will, in its sole discretion, terminate the accounts of, and refuse service to, any User who repeatedly or knowingly violates this Agreement. Routeware shall have the sole authority to choose the manner in which any Profile will be searched, displayed, accessed, downloaded, copied, and otherwise used on the Routeware Web Site, and Routeware shall have the right to modify the Profile in the exercise of its rights under this Agreement. User represents and warrants that all information provided by User will be accurate, and agrees that it will not register a Profile under a name other than that which it is authorized to use. Routeware reserves, in a manner consistent with reasonable commercial business practices, the right to remove all or any part of any Profile posted on the Routeware Web Site. Routeware accepts no responsibility for checking the accuracy of reports or data files submitted by User. While Routeware shall take all reasonable efforts for data backup and business resumption, User will be solely responsible for retaining back-up copies of all information, photographs and other materials it provides to Routeware, or submits or posts to any Profile.
Use of Information
All information obtained from the Service, including business information, directories and any other information otherwise made available to User (individually and collectively, the “Content”) is proprietary to Routeware and its licensors, and is protected by copyright and other U.S. and international intellectual property rights, laws and treaties. User agrees that Content will be treated as proprietary, maintained as confidential and shall be protected as a trade secret of Routeware. Routeware does not ensure the accuracy of, endorse or recommend any Content, and User uses such Content at User’s own risk. User may access the Content solely to obtain initial information from which further evaluation and investigation may commence. User shall limit access to, and use of, Content to personal and internal use, and shall not use Content obtained from the Service for further distribution, publication, public display, or preparation of derivative works or facilitate any of these activities in any way. User shall not use or reproduce Content obtained from the Service for or in connection with any other listing service or device. User shall not modify, merge, decompile, disassemble, translate, decode or reverse engineer any portion of the Product, or use any data mining, gathering or extraction tool, or any robot, spider or other automatic device or manual process, to monitor or copy any portion of the Service. User shall not access or use any portion of the Service if User is a direct or indirect competitor of Routeware, nor shall User provide, disclose or transmit any portion of the Service to any direct or indirect competitor of Routeware (by way of example, a “direct or indirect competitor” of Routeware includes, but is not limited to, online searchable marketplaces for the marketing and advertising industry, and employees, independent contractors and agents of such marketplaces). Users violating these specific terms, specifically those Users using the Service in an abusive or excessive manner, by automated or manual means, shall have their Profiles subject to immediate termination and deletion, and such Users will be assessed a significant excessive use fee.
Unsolicited Commercial Email or Messages (Spam)
Routeware prohibits the use of tools to generate or send unsolicited commercial email (“spam”). Users may not use the messaging services that Routeware offers to send spam or otherwise send content that would violate these Terms and Conditions. Routeware has the right to revoke the privileges of any User that breaches these terms.
