All Content is our property and/or property of third parties and is protected by United States and international copyright laws. All trademarks, service marks, and trade names which appear on the Services are proprietary to us and/or third parties. You shall abide by all copyright notices, information, and restrictions contained in any Content accessed through the Services.

You further acknowledge that the Services may contain information which is designated confidential by us and that you shall not disclose such information without our prior written consent.

8-1. Any non-human users of the Services shall be considered agents of the individual or entity that controls or authors them.

By using a non-human user to access any of the Services or consume any resources of the Services in any manner, the individual or entity that controls or authors that non-human user accepts these Terms of Use in the same manner as if that person or entity directly accepted the Terms of Use on their own behalf.
8-2. Special restrictions on the use of the Services apply to non-human users. Non-human users include, but are not limited to, web spiders, bots, indexers, robots, crawlers, harvesters, or any other computer programs designed to access, read, compile, or gather Content from the Services automatically. Non-human users are restricted from consuming the resources of the Services beyond what would be typical of a human user, and they may not reuse the Content of the Services beyond the restrictions listed in these Terms of Use.
8-3. Non-human users must obey all restrictions placed upon them, especially those by the "robots.txt" files included in the root directory of the Website or any website servers that we operate, or any other computer routine used to limit the activity of non-human users. Any attempt or action that bypasses these restrictions is strictly prohibited and constitutes a breach of these Terms of Use.
8-4. Furthermore, electronic mail (e-mail) addresses on the Services are considered our proprietary intellectual property, unless the e-mail address is the property of a third party. It is recognized, and you agree, that these e-mail addresses are provided for human users alone. Intentional collection, harvesting, gathering, or storing e-mail addresses by non-human users is recognized under this agreement as a violation of these Terms of Use and expressly prohibited.
8-5. YOU AGREE THAT HARVESTING, GATHERING, STORING, TRANSFERRING TO A THIRD PARTY, OR SENDING ANY MESSAGE(S) TO THE PROTECTED E-MAIL ADDRESSES CONSTITUTES AN ACCEPTANCE AND SUBSEQUENT BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT.
9. TEAM MEMBERSHIP
9-1. We may designate you as a "Team Member." The terms "basic member" and "club member" shall be interpreted as Team Members. This designation may allow you to access additional or different Services or features of the Services ("Team Services"). Being designated as a Team Member confers no rights to you and does not establish any agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment with us. You agree that the Team Member designation is solely for entertainment purposes and that being a Team Member has no monetary or other value. Your designation as a Team Member may be altered, suspended, or terminated at our discretion without notice or liability to you.

If you are a Team Member, you agree that the Content of the Team Services ("Team Content") is provided to you solely by merit of your designation as a Team Member and that it is not otherwise available to other users or the general public. As such, you agree that Team Content is confidential, proprietary to us, may contain trade secrets, or may contain internal or personal information, and you may not share Team Content or cause Team Content to be shared with any third party. You further agree that the potential redistribution of Team Content with third parties diminishes the value of the Team Content and creates a loss for us. You agree that you are liable for the misuse of or transmission of Team Content to any third party and you are liable for any damages suffered by us as a result.

Being designated as a Staff Member confers no rights to you and does not establish any agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment with us. You agree that the Staff Member designation is solely for entertainment purposes and that being a Staff Member has no monetary or other value. Such designation may be altered, suspended, or terminated at our discretion without notice or liability to you.
10-2. As a Staff Member, you may be granted by us certain capabilities to moderate, manage, or administrate some or all of the Services on behalf of us. You agree that you are solely responsible for any actions you perform using such capabilities, and that you accept all liability to us and any other third party for the actions you perform with such capabilities.
10-3. If you are a Staff Member, you agree that the Content of the Staff Services ("Staff Content") is provided to you solely by merit of your designation as a Staff Member and that it is not otherwise available to other users or the general public.

You further acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused, or alleged to be caused, by or in connection with, the use of or reliance on, any such Content, goods, or services available on or through any such website or resource.
