This Terms of Use agreement (“Terms of Use”) applies to all aspects of your accessing, browsing, using, framing and/or linking to BluIP’s Web sites (“Sites”). Any person accessing, browsing, using, framing and/or linking to any of the Sites in any way is a “User” for purposes of this Terms of Use and may be referred to as “User” or “You.” By accessing, browsing, using, framing and/or linking to any of the Sites, You acknowledge that You have read, understand, and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Terms of Use. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS TERMS OF USE, YOUR SOLE REMEDY IS TO DISCONTINUE YOUR USE OF THE SITES.
Other Agreements.
If you and BluIP are parties to any agreement(s), other than this Terms of Use, (“Other Agreement(s)”) (a) this Terms of Use is a part of such Other Agreement(s); and this Terms of Use is effective without limiting, waiving and notwithstanding the provisions of any Other Agreement(s). This Terms of Use will be read in connection with each Other Agreement. In the event of discrepancy between this Terms of Use, and Other Agreements, this Terms of Use shall prevail but only to the extent of the express purposes of this Terms of Use; otherwise, the Other Agreements shall prevail. This Terms of Use, however, applies to You, even if you are not a party to another agreement with BluIP.
Updates
a) This Terms of Use is subject to change without notice. Any changes to this Terms of Use will be posted on the Sites. All accessing, browsing, using, framing and/or linking to the Sites are subject to the provisions of this Terms of Use, as amended.
b) The Materials (defined below) may include technical inaccuracies or typographical errors. BluIP may publish changes to the Materials at any time without notice. BluIP may also make improvements and/or changes in the products and services and/or the programs described in the Materials at any time without notice. BluIP has the right to revise these Materials at any time. By linking, accessing, browsing, and/or using the Sites, You agree to be bound by any such revisions and should therefore periodically review the Terms of Use posted on the Sites.
Restrictions on Use of the Sites and Their Content
Limited License. Subject to all of the provisions of this Terms of Use, BluIP grants You a terminable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, personal, non-sublicenseable limited license to access and use the Sites and/or the content and other materials published on the Sites (“Materials”) for your personal, non-commercial use, which may include displaying, copying, and downloading Materials. The design and layout of any and all of the Sites are specifically excluded from the Materials. No other use of the Materials is authorized under this copying license. Any copy of the Materials (or any portion thereof) that You make, must retain all copyright and other original proprietary notices. You may not modify the Sites, the Material, any copyrighted materials, or other content. The license to use the Sites terminates automatically if you breach these Terms, and BluIP may accordingly restrict, disable, suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Sites at any time in BluIP’s sole discretion and without prior notice.
As a condition of your use of the Sites, you may not: (a) modify, distribute, display, transfer, post, or transmit any part or parts of the Sites or the Materials without BluIP’s prior written permission; (b) use the Sites for any purpose that is unlawful; (c) use the Sites for any non-personal or commercial activities; (d) use the Sites in any manner which could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the Sites, or interfere with any other User’s use of the Sites; (e) obtain or attempt to obtain or copy any content or information not intentionally made available through the Sites, by, for example, the use of monitoring, data mining, robots, spiders, or similar data gathering and extraction tools; or (f) transmit inappropriate material to or through the Sites, including material that is threatening, defamatory, sexually graphic, inflammatory, bullying or profane. BluIP may edit or remove any transmission it deems inappropriate. All other uses of the Sites, BluIP’s software and the Materials, including, but not limited to modification, publication, transmission, participation in the transfer or sale of, reproduction, creation of derivative works from, distribution, performance, display, incorporation into another Web site, mirroring the Sites or in any other way exploiting any of the Materials, in whole or in part, is not permitted under this limited license and may violate one or more of BluIP’s or a third party’s intellectual property rights. Any such use is prohibited without BluIP’s prior express written consent. Except for this limited license, nothing under this Terms of Use shall be construed as conferring to You in any manner, whether by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any license, title, or ownership of or to any intellectual property right of BluIP or any third party.
Termination of Usage
This Terms of Use shall remain in force until terminated by either You or BluIP. You may terminate this Terms of Use solely by discontinuing Your use of and access to the Sites. BluIP may terminate this Terms of Use, or suspend Your access to all or part of the Sites, without notice, for any or no reason. Termination of suspension will be likely for any conduct that BluIP, in BluIP’s sole discretion, believes is disruptive to the Sites, is in violation of any applicable Law or is in violation of this Terms of Use. Please understand, however, this Terms of Use will continue to apply to your past use of the Sites, even after termination of this Terms of Use or your discontinued use of the Sites. All terms and provisions of this Terms of Use that would be reasonably thought to survive the termination of this Terms of Use (including: Restrictions of Use, Intellectual Property provisions, Disclaimers, Indemnification and Limitation of Liability) will survive the termination of this Terms of Use.
